A música foi originalmente intitulada "If You Want to Be with Me", mas a gestão de Christina Aguilera sugeriu o título "Genie in a Bottle" para criar um tema árabe que permitisse o marketing de acessórios como joias de miçangas e vestuário temático.
Antecipando o sucesso, a música liderou as paradas musicais e se tornou o "hit do verão" de 1999 semanas antes mesmo do clipe oficial ter sido produzido.
Durante as sessões de gravação, os produtores sentiram que os vocais iniciais eram muito "duros"; foi necessário um segundo take para capturar a qualidade mais "suave" pretendida, com o co-compositor Steve Kipner comparando o estilo vocal complexo de Christina ao de Chaka Khan, Etta James e Mariah Carey.
As letras foram escritas em uma única sessão "muito rápida" com Pamela Sheyne, Steve Kipner e David Frank, que concordaram que a intelectualidade era secundária, having the main intention de criar um "hit song" imediato.
O clipe foi filmado em Malibu em abril de 1999, onde Christina enfrentou temperaturas congelantes na areia enquanto usava apenas shorts e um top com punho, ao passo que a equipe de filmagem precisava de casacos grossos para se aquecer.
A faixa permaneceu na primeira posição da Billboard Hot 100 por cinco semanas consecutivas, de julho a agosto de 1999, antes de ser substituída por "Bailamos" de Enrique Iglesias.
