Songfacts®:

  • This is a single from the Swedish DJ, remixer, record producer and record label owner Axwell, who is also part of the three person group dubbed the Swedish House Mafia. The song features Errol Reid, who achieved worldwide chart hits as the lead vocalist of boyband China Black in the mid 1990s.
  • Axwell told MTV News about the song's music video, which traces the journey of a 21st-century Christ-like character: "The vocal, it sounds like it's a Jesus kind of a thing. With the whole 'Whatever you do, turn the other cheek' and 'I got nothing but love for you, whatever you do.' So I was like, 'I really like this idea,' and it's going to be kind of hard to pull off with it not being weird or upsetting. I think the idea is that it's a bit like how we would be if there was a modern Jesus among us."
