The first single from Grouplove's Spreading Rumors album is a feel-good anthem that had made regular appearances on the band's setlists prior to its release. Frontman Christian Zucconi told KROQ's Kevin & Bean that the song "came magically" to the band during the album's recording session in an "old Motown house" in the Hollywood Hills. "We just kinda ran with it the night it came together," he added, "and really got excited about it and it just kinda surprised us."
The song's music video re-imagines North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un as a kid, who after waking up one day and feeling Grouplove's love, is inspired to spread goodwill and end the violence in his home country. Naturally, the band didn't actually travel to North Korea to shoot the clip. "We shot it in this crazy house in Malibu, the Villa Leon, that's kind of defunct and falling apart, frontman Christian Zucconi told MTV News, "but they let us run around inside."
