Written by Lil Nas X along with its producers, Take a Daytrip, Omer Fedi, and Roy Lenzo.


The song is noted for its queer themes, including its sexually explicit homosexual lyrics, taking its name from the 2017 film Call Me by Your Name which centers on a gay romance. The camp, sexually charged music video for the song depicts Lil Nas X in a number of biblically-inspired scenes, including the artist riding a stripper pole to Hell, and giving a lap dance to Satan.


The song and video were praised by some commentators for their boldly queer sensibilities, but were also the subject of backlash from a number of conservative figures in the United States who deemed the content immoral or harmful to children.


"Montero (Call Me by Your Name)" debuted at the top the Billboard Hot 100, giving Lil Nas X his second number-one hit on the chart after "Old Town Road". It was certified platinum in the United States by the RIAA on April 22, 2021.


Outside of the United States, "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)" topped the charts 20 other countries including Canada, France, and the United Kingdom.


The song received nominations for Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Music Video at the 2022 Grammy Awards.
