"Rushing Back" arrived in September 2019 on Future Classic, Australian electronic musician Flume handing the microphone to fellow Australian Vera Blue. He'd road-tested it first, playing it live for the first time in his Osheaga Festival set that August, before Triple J gave it its radio premiere. The writing credit splits four ways, between Sophie Cates, Eric J. Dubowsky, Flume and Celia Pavey.

It had legs. In the week after Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2019, it rose as high as number 8 on the ARIA singles chart, and it turned up in FIFA 20. The awards circuit took notice too: a nomination at the 2020 AIR Awards, then a win for Most Performed Dance Work at the APRA Music Awards of 2021, where it was also up for Most Performed Australian Work.
