This is a song by The Chainsmokers, a New York–based DJ and singer-songwriter duo.
It’s an unrequited love song about a man who regrets breaking up with his ex and still loves her.
The mix of cheering on his ex, who has found a new love, and the lingering feelings he can’t let go of is heartbreaking, isn’t it? Perhaps it makes you feel that the next love will surely be a good one.
