Jewel wrote this song with Steve Poltz from The Rugburns, who also appeared in the video with Jewel - they were a couple at the time. At a 2007 concert in Sydney, Poltz explained that he wrote the song with Jewel while in Mexico, and at one point the lyrics flew out of the car window when they were driving. He went back to get it, but almost abandoned it. Poltz would go on to start the "Frasier Fair" in 1998, which was a male response to the Lilith Fair.
This was Jewel's second single, providing a follow up to her debut hit "Who Will Save Your Soul?" and quickly taking her out of one-hit-wonder consideration.
This was the most played song on US radio in 1996.
