A capa do single faz uma referência visual direta à pintura "Le Violon d'Ingres", de 1924, feita pelo artista Man Ray.
Alicia Keys revelou em 2020 que quase entregou a música para Christina Aguilera, que desejava colaborar com ela, mas acabou escrevendo a faixa "Impossible" para o álbum *Stripped* de Christina em vez disso.
O clipe, dirigido por Diane Martel e ambientado no Harlem de inverno, conta com o rapper Method Man interpretando o namorado de Keys, e na versão estendida de cinco minutos é revelado que ele é preso por acusações de tráfico de drogas.
A faixa registrou uma das permanências mais longas no top 10 da Billboard Hot 100 em 2004, durando 20 semanas não consecutivas e superando vários singles que chegaram ao número 1 naquele ano.
A inspiração para a letra surgiu logo após o falecimento de Aaliyah, um momento que Alicia descreveu como sombrio e que deixou claro para ela o que realmente importava na vida.
A música atingiu notoriedade ao ser coberta quatro vezes no concurso American Idol, por Vonzell Solomon, Kinnik Sky, Syesha Mercado e Taylor Vaifanua, além de ser interpretada por Eli Mattson no America's Got Talent em 2008.
