The song was written by Folk Implosion members Lou Barlow and John H. Davis, along with producer Wally Gagel.
It consisted of the band's contributions to the Kids soundtrack (which included "Natural One") in addition to other tracks from the same era.
It was stated that the compilation's purpose was to bypass the various record label issues, and to compile the tracks together under one full-length release (as an example, although "Natural One" was considered to be the band's signature song, the aforementioned issues prevented it from appearing on streaming services previously).
[4] It was used as the theme song for AMC Network's "Long Live Cool" promos, as well an episode of The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story and the Netflix documentary miniseries Pepsi, Where's My Jet?
The AV Club's Annie Zaleski describes the promotional clip as "a cross between a National Geographic special on nature and an art school film."
