The band reached its peak popularity in 1989, with the release of Dr. Feelgood, which was their fifth album. It became their only #1 album and stayed on the charts for 109 weeks after its release.

Guitarist Mick Mars came up with the main guitar part and melody line for the chorus, which Sixx put words over.
