Background
The song was written in an hour after a five-hour session in which Eldredge worked on a ballad, and was recorded out of a desire to be spontaneous and have fun. Eldredge said of the song: "It made us write one of the craziest, out of nowhere fun songs I've ever written. I've never had so much fun recording." His ad libs and laughter were left on the final recording. Douglas and producer Ross Copperman also provided backing vocals.
