Lorde’s verse in the remix deals with feelings of jealousy and self-reflection, which she shared candidly during previous interviews. The collaboration on stage was a symbolic resolution of the two artists’ past rivalry, which had fueled much of the song's emotional weight​.

The surprise performance was met with widespread excitement from the crowd, solidifying the remix as a standout moment in the tour. Both artists have continued to focus on themes of personal growth and reconciliation through their music, resonating deeply with their audience​.
