Background and composition
The 21-year old singer from Streatham, South London started releasing music in 2016 and posted numerous covers and original songs on social media platforms during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020. As her content kept gaining traction, her clips soon surpassed over 14 million views. "Go" had previously been uploaded as an acoustic rendition to TikTok, accompanied by American singer H.E.R., before it was officially released in July 2020. According to Burns, the song is about leaving a situation without fighting. About its success, she says, "people love a song that they can sing at the top of their lungs and 'Go' is that. It's exactly what you want to hear when you're going through a breakup, and need some power and confidence". When performing "Go" in front of a crowd at the Courtyard Theatre, she recalled, "I sang my song 'Go' and I was so surprised that people actually knew the words and were singing it LOUDLY!".
The song was described as "a post-breakup anthem that channels 'Alright, Still'-era Lily Allen with real verve".
