This single continued George Michael's string of solo hits, but it was a major departure from his typical sound. It's meant to recall jazz and the blues of earlier times, which was reinforced with the black-and-white music video. This helped introduce him to a new audience, as it reached #1 on the Adult Contemporary charts. Michael wrote the lyrics, in which he expresses his uncertainties about finding romance due to the baggage of his past relationships.
This was the last of six singles to chart from the Faith album.
