"We got a single a couple of months ago, demo style, and it was just so awesome that i said "Can I please record this tomorrow?" So, I went into the studio and recorded it".

The song was mixed by Grammy-nominated Veronica Ferraro. In addition,it was remixed by top dance music producers Dave Audé, Alex Gaudino/Jason Rooney, and Ralphi Rosario.

## Music video

The music video premiered August 6, 2011 on ABC Family, and later uploaded to Sutta's VEVO account five days later. The video was directed by SKINNY.

The video starts out with a city and a siren of a cop. It then goes underground and the song starts to play. Sutta is seen walking with a smile, while the other people are dancing around her. As she walks to the dance floor, a guy catches her eye and she smiles flirtatiously at him before she walks away and the guy proceeds to follow after her. During the video, Sutta and her crew crank the floor-shaking energy up so high that the power goes out. This doesn't stop the party, however, as everyone seems to have brought their flashlights along and begin to dance seductively while some of the dancers engage in public displays of affections with their love interests. This is followed by the flashlight-wielding guy she conveniently bumps into earlier looking for her at the party, searching various rooms filled with some couples making out while a girl applying her makeup writes the song's title on the bathroom mirror in lipstick. Before the clip is over, the power comes back on and everyone on the dance floor dances more energetically while the flashlight-wielding guy finally reunites with his love interest Sutta and the two of them proceed to bump and grind in dance-pop bliss. The video then ends while Sutta smiles to the camera and then fades away.
