[edit] Song information

The ballad was released right as Abdul became engaged and married to Emilio Estevez. They married in California on April 29, 1992 but then divorced two years later in May 1994.

The single's b-side was a track from the Spellbound sessions called "Good Night, My Love". It was recorded for a compilation as well called, "For Our Children". The song was for the Pediatric AIDS Foundation.

Like the previous single Vibeology the single only went to the top 20, becoming a minor success for Abdul.

The music video for the song featured a digital composite of 5 versions of Abdul wearing similarly coloured white outfits. Each "version" of Abdul performed a different style of dance to the song (ballet, jazz etc...) and ultimately settled into a coreographed routine in which they danced with one another.
