Producer A. G. Cook first played a remix of “Click” on February 1, 2020, at a set in San Francisco, which would later become “c2.0.”
It was first teased by Charli herself when she tweeted that she was considering including a song called “C2.0 (No Name)” on May 9, and shortly afterward played a clip of the song.
"A. G. sent me this beat at the end of last year called ‘Click 2.0’—which was an updated version of my song ‘Click’ from the Charli album. He had put it together for a performance he was doing with [US artist and former Chairlift member] Caroline Polachek. I heard the performance online and loved it, and found myself listening to it on repeat while—and I’m sorry, I know this is so cheesy—driving around Indonesia watching all these colours and trees and rainbows go by. It just felt euphoric and beautiful. Towards the end of this recording process, I wanted to do a few more songs and A. G. reminded me of this track. The original ‘Click’ features Tommy Cash and Kim Petras and is a very braggy song about our community of artists. It’s talking about how we’re the s**t, basically. But through this, it’s been transformed into this celebratory song about friendship and missing the people that you hang out with the most and the world that existed before."

White sheets, you and me used to lay close
Blue summer sittin' high in the window
Phone calls every night had a new glow
My clique running through my mind like a rainbow
We were so in love, so we let go
Took it in our lungs, then we all choked
Long drives, so divine when the sun showed
My clique running through my mind like a rainbow
I miss them every night
I miss them by my side
Catch my tears when I cry
My clique on me for life
Driving 'round at dawn, look at you, lip bite
Something in my chest til' the tension breaks
Want to stand still, won't forget this time
I miss them, I miss them, I miss them
White sheets, you and me used to lay close
Blue summer sittin' high in the window
Phone calls every night had a new glow
My clique running through my mind like a rainbow
We were so in love, so we let go
Took it in our lungs, then we all choked
Long drives, so divine when the sun showed
My clique running through my mind like a rainbow (yeah)
I miss them

Charli
The lyrics to Charli XCX's song C2.0 have two different parts to them. The first part is a repeating pattern of "click, click, click" which asserts the singer's next level and legitimate status, signifying that she has the power and control in the music industry. This is a nod to the digital age, where everything is a click away, and staying on top of your game requires constant engagement and activity. The second part of the song is a nostalgic reflection on memories of the singer's clique or group of friends. This section recalls a time of white sheets and blue summers sitting high in the window, long drives, and falling in love, all the while cementing that the singer's friends are a significant part of her life and will remain so.
The song speaks of duality and progression with lines such as "I'm next level, so legit with all my" and then the next line starts with "I miss them." The juxtaposition of the two parts of the song highlights Charli XCX's personal and artistic growth while acknowledging her past and the role her friends have played in her life. Speaking to the contrast between the uniformity of digital clicks and the variability of human emotions, Charli XCX's song C2.0 presents multiple themes and ideas that show the complexity of our lives and the world around us.

“Click” is exterior you, feeling hard a.f. and like a bad bitch with your friends, out and ready to have a good time.
“C2.0” is interior you, when you’re reflecting on how lucky you are to have them and how much they mean to you
