Patricia Boughton filed a lawsuit against Rod Stewart, claiming that a football he kicked into the crowd during a concert at Pine Knob Music Theatre had ruptured a tendon in her middle finger. Boughton alleged the impact left the middle finger of her left hand permanently disfigured. Her husband, Stephen Boughton, joined the lawsuit with a claim for "loss of companionship," asserting that the finger injury disrupted their sex life and contributed to the end of their 14-year marriage. The case was settled out of court in October 1992 for $17,000, with Stewart arguing in a deposition that kicking soccer balls was a standard part of his live show.

The song features whispers from actress Britt Ekland who was Stewart's girlfriend at the time.
