Songfacts®:

  • This was the only single to be taken from the soundtrack of the movie Sex and the City 2. It peaked at #16 on the Italian Digital Singles Chart, #58 on the Japan Hot 100 and #84 on the Australian Singles Chart.
  • Dido recalled to Canada.com in 2013: "I wrote it before (my son) Stanley was born, but it's still so relevant now. Before I had a family I would do anything and try anything, and then you have a family and you realize for the time you have something to lose. So it's about that moment when you realize it's proper love and you care about losing it."
