This is a song about a lover who wants to wander. Dido co-wrote it with her brother Rollo, who is part of the electronic music group Faithless. She told Canada.com in 2013: "'Hunter' is a real classic Rollo lyric - it's his girly, angst-y song. Because I often sing Rollo's lyrics it's quite an interesting point of view, which I like."
"Hunter" is part of Dido's 1999 debut album, No Angel, which became a surprise hit in 2001 after Eminem sampled the track "Thank You" for his song "Stan." Dido went from being a side-stage artist on the Lilith Fair to a tour headliner.
