The piece is set in the key of E major in a moderate 4/4 beat. The vocal range of the brothers span two whole octaves from E3 to E5.[citation needed]

Critical reception

Peggy Sirota for Billboard described the song as a "catchy, toe-tapping" song accompanied by an "equally heart-melting music video".[3]

Music video

After several days of teasing, the group released the song alongside a video in which they recreate three well-known eighties films.[4] In the rollout to the visual's Friday, January 17, 2020 release, hints about the video's themes were revealed via retro movie posters mirroring classic late seventies and eighties films.[5] The music video was directed by Joseph Kahn.[6]
