Uncle Kracker is Kid Rock's DJ. Rock produced the track and released the Double Wide album on his Top Dog record label, launching Kracker's solo career. The mellow tune is a far cry from Kracker's days hyping the crowd for rock from behind his turntables. Rock had his own lite-rock hit two years later with his Sheryl Crow duet "Picture."
The song is about a man who has an affair with a married woman. It did very well on Adult Contemporary radio, where many people heard it as background music and didn't listen to the lyrics. It was kind of funny hearing placid DJs say "Uncle Kracker" on the air.
Kracker wrote this with his musical partner Michael Bradford. They met when both were in Kid Rock's touring band.
