During the interview when asked what led him to create "Be By My Side", Crush answered, "I pondered about the kind of music I should put out as a musician this past summer. After much thought, my dear fans came to mind.� I don't have a large fanbase or anything but I felt very grateful towards those who continued to cheer me on; strengthening me.� And I happened to write my honest thoughts like I would in a journal, which gave birth to 'Be By My Side'."
