      Background and composition



      On 6 September 2016, Harris uploaded the artwork for "My Way" without the song title to his Twitter and Instagram accounts, causing people to believe that this was hinting at a new song being in the works. Harris announced the single along with its official artwork to his Twitter page on 12 September 2016, four days prior to its release.
      "My Way" is an uptempo, tropical house song.
      The song is written in the key of E minor with a common time tempo of 120 beats per minute. Harris's vocals span from D3 to G4 in the song.
      Harris stated on the British radio station Heart and other interviews, that the lyrics are about his career in the grocery store he used to work in and how it prevented him from moving to London to progress in his music production.


      Music video


      The music video for the song was released to YouTube on 28 October 2016 through Calvin Harris' official Vevo account. It was directed by long-time collaborator, Emil Nava.
      It was signed in the desert of the United States in a red building. Harris is seen in a virtual reality headset and in a cabin in the countryside. In addition, you can see a woman walking in nature with a black dress and a girl riding a horse and a red sports car. The video begins to glitch, and the Italian model Emanuela Postacchini is shown. She and Harris sitting at the table looking at her, and on the farm some models appear dancing to the song, and Postacchini in a robotic dress. The video ends with Harris and Postacchini looking at each other, then the background of the cover appears, and an old computer turns off.
