Songfacts®:

  • This exploration of Ashley Monroe's sensual side was inspired by the singer's first trip to London. "I felt alive and a hunger to be wild, I suppose," Monroe explained on an Instagram post. "[Co-writers] Brendan Benson and Waylon Payne helped take this idea to another level. I love the way this song makes me feel. Free."
  • The music video finds Ashley Monroe basking among the Tennessean nature. She told People:

    "We went full-on Mother Earth, raw, wild love vibes for this video. I gained a whole new sense of strength and confidence when I became a mother. There's such a freedom that comes with being comfortable with who you are and that's when you're at your sexiest and most beautiful.

    I wanted the 'Wild Love' video to capture that sense of peace that comes with letting go and feeling good about who you are."
