The song, together with the other songs on the album was recorded in 1997 at Tarbox Studios[3] in Cassadaga, New York, with producer Dave Fridmann (The Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev).[4][5] Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, felt the single showed "melodic rock akin to UK bands like Radiohead or Teenage Fanclub."[6]
