Background and release
In February 2025, Gomez and Blanco announced their collaboration project, I Said I Love You First. They released the lead single, "Call Me When You Break Up", on February 20, and later hinted at another song dropping before the album's release. On March 4, they unveiled the official track list on social media. A week later, on March 11, they announced the release of their new song, "Sunset Blvd".
Composition
Described as a synth-pop, ambient pop and dream pop number, "Sunset Blvd" was inspired by Gomez and Blanco's first date on the eponymous street in Los Angeles. Gomez drew inspiration from cult classics, channeling a full '80s vixen aesthetic in the video. Her hair and makeup paid homage to Francis Ford Coppola's 1982 film, One from the Heart, which he praised.
