Although they were only together about a year, the former couple never shied away from showcasing moments of PDA on social media or expressing their feelings for one another in the media. They also collaborated on a hit song, "Him & I," which they performed together often and they directed and co-starred in the song's accompanying short film. According to Genius, Halsey told 97.1 AMP-FM in Los Angeles:
It’s like we really made this record about our real lives and hopefully we get to share that with other people who feel similarly about each other and we’re really fortunate. We live really cool lives and we get to do really cool stuff together and I just hope that, you know, some young couple somewhere in a slower part of world maybe can hear it and maybe imagine what it would be like for just four minutes.
