The majority of the song has an upbeat [[electro house]] style until vocals from Harris come in. When the vocals do come in, the background tune is just a [[piano]] being played until Calvin Harris sings "''Our hearts will never be the same again''". After this happens, the tune becomes upbeat again.

Swedish DJ [[Alesso]] has criticized the song for being a copy of his own track "Clash".
