Background and writing

The song was co-written by Page along with Jordan Knight and Danny Wood of the pop boy band New Kids on the Block.^[3] While on tour with the New Kids in 1989, Page was playing piano at a hotel one night when Knight approached him, and the two played piano together for a period of time. Knight played Page a verse from what would become "I'll Be Your Everything", a song that Knight wanted to save for a future solo project. The two later collaborated on finishing the song, and Page asked if he could record it for his next album. Knight agreed and produced the track, and fellow band members Danny Wood and Donnie Wahlberg participated in the project as well.^[3]

Music video

The video peaked at number one for several weeks and featured model Robyn Leigh Hadem.
