"Congratulations To Me" follows previous singles "Cap In Hand", "All Forgotten", and "I'm On Standby" as the fourth preview of the band's upcoming sixteenth album.

Speaking about the track, E (Mark Oliver Everett) says: "This is someone who has reached a breaking point and is celebrating it, but not in a defeated way, more of a 'why did I care about stuff that doesn’t matter that much, I’m finally liberated’ way. Or something.”
