Background
Speaking to Le Parisien, Amir said that he had written this song well before the COVID-19 lockdowns, and said "I want it to become the song where at each party with friends, in your house or in a bar or on vacation, you will put it on and that's when everyone will lose it, throw towels in the air, raise their glasses and dance like crazy."[2]
Critical reception
Jonathan Vautrey from Wiwibloggs said, "Starting with an electric guitar riff, the song utilises a mixture of percussion instrumentation. While not a full-on party feel as the title might suggest, the melody is still relatively danceable. Lyrically, Amir sings about forgetting your troubles and enjoying life to its fullest: 'You're tired from yesterday again / It's nothing / We'll think about it tomorrow … We were all born to party / As if we'd never done it before'."[3]
