Upon release of the album, Mac told V Magazine she wrote the song in her room in Melbourne, saying "I didn't plan on 'Low Blows' being the [lead] single, but whenever people listened to it they thought that it should be. 'Low Blows' is really about looking back and knowing that things would be different if I stood up for myself. It's almost a little bit sad watching yourself and how things could be different."[2]
