It is famous for its incredible underdog backstory: after being dropped by his record label and told his career was over, Kim formed his own label, Ice Records, and personally financed the recording session to prove he still had a hit in him. His instinct was correct; the song—a soulful, soft-rock anthem with a catchy chorus—shot to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, reigning at the top and becoming a massive commercial success. Culturally, it cemented Kim's legacy (he also co-wrote the Archies' "Sugar, Sugar") and remains a beloved example of 70s pop resilience, later finding new life in TV commercials like the 2008 Jeep Liberty ad.
