Lewis told Triple J "The song was conceived in a London cab two years ago after an argument with a girl...the line, 'Is it too late to turn around, I'm already halfway out of town' came into my head while I was sitting in an Uber about halfway from her place to mine." Lewis also said "The song is about meeting someone, making memories and then feeling regret." "Chasing Cars" by Snow Patrol is referenced in this song.
At the ARIA Music Awards of 2019, the album was nominated for Song of the Year.
At the APRA Music Awards of 2020, "7 Minutes" was nominated for Most Performed Australian Work of the Year and Most Performed Pop Work of the Year; winning the latter.
