Foi lançada em 1987 no álbum *Document* e novamente em 1988 na compilação *Eponymous*.
Como single em 1988, alcançou o nº 69 na Billboard Hot 100 dos EUA e, na re‑lançamento de 1991, atingiu o nº 39 na lista britânica.
A faixa tem origem em uma canção inédita chamada “PSA” (Public Service Announcement), que compartilha melodia e ritmo semelhantes; “PSA” foi lançada em 2003 como “Bad Day”.
Em entrevista à *Guitar World* no início dos anos 90, o guitarrista Peter Buck revelou que a principal inspiração veio de “Subterranean Homesick Blues”, de Bob Dylan.
O videoclipe, dirigido por James Herbert, mostra Noah Ray, um skatista jovem, vasculhando uma fazenda abandonada e exibindo os relíquias que encontra.
A música apareceu no filme de animação da Disney *Chicken Little* e no longa‑metragem da Sony *Independence Day*.
