Wainwright described this song to Spinner as "the most visceral song" on Out of the Game, which was produced by Mark Ronson. He explained: "There's a kind of intensity and focus that reminds me of certain Elton John or Fleetwood Mac songs, these uptempo numbers that are at the same time incredibly emotional and war-like, which is exciting but also a little scary. It's a very private song, about a person being a city, and that city being Jericho. It's a biblical mystery."
