Tim Rogers said the song was one of two songs that, "Russ hadn't actually heard before we recorded them. I was talking him through it as we were recording and I think he only played it twice and that's the final take."[3]
Rogers said the song was inspired by AM radio stations that he would listen to in the morning while writing the album Hourly, Daily. "Often I wake up depressed, as people do, and I found it really comforting. I could see how you could get attached to it, instead of waking up with someone next to you."[4]
The Mark Hartley directed music video was nominated for the ARIA Award for Best Video at the ARIA Music Awards of 1997.[5]
