In an interview with Billboard, Bermudez commented on the song's success: ""My first No. 1 record is kind of like my first kiss," adding that "I never thought it was going to happen and when it did it I was overwhelmed with an excitement I've never felt before. So much so, that it's hard to even put into words. It's something that I'll never forget, though." Carver later echoed those comment after she was asked about her first number one in the United States, saying. "When I heard that Joe and I are No. 1 on the Billboard chart [this week], I literally screamed in shock. I am trying to just enjoy the moment and appreciate this really incredible gift!"
