The album differs musically from their previous albums, moving away from teen pop into pop rock tendencies. Unlike previous albums, it featured only live instruments. The album's title track mourns the loss of Kevin Richardson's father, Jerald, who is also Brian Littrell's uncle. It sold over 3 million copies worldwide.
