Dido penned this song with San Francisco songwriter Rick Nowels, whose other credits include Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven Is A Place on Earth" and Colbie Caillat's "Fallin' For You." They also collaborated on Dido's transatlantic hit, White Flag."
Dido gave birth to her first child, Stanley, halfway through the recording of Girl Who Got Away. She described it to Billboard magazine as "a more optimistic album," than her previous release, Safe Trip Home, in part due to her reflections on becoming a new mother. This gentle pop ballad is built around the hook, "No love without freedom. No freedom without love."
The song's music video was directed by Ethan Lader (OneRepublic's "Good Life", Bruno Mars' "Just The Way You Are") and produced by Nicole Acacio and Rockhard.
