This song was written by Kiss founding-member Paul Stanley and producer Vini Poncia, who also provides backing vocals. It was inspired by the Hollies 1975 cover of the Bruce Springsteen song "4th Of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)," which was included on their album Another Night.
Paul Stanley, who sang lead and played all guitars, was the only member of the band to actually play on the track. Session stickman Anton Fig played drums, Kiss roadie Tom Harper played bass and professional songwriter Holly Knight played keyboards.
The song peaked at #47 on the Hot 100. It proved especially popular Down Under, peaking at #5 in Australia and #6 in New Zealand.
