Upon release, Higgins said: "This is the happiest song on the record. It is the story of me meeting my husband in Broome. He was my good friend’s house mate and one day he walked into the living room, wearing nothing but a towel, where I was waiting for my friend. I sat on the futon couch making small-talk with him while he did the dishes and I thought: 'where did THIS guy come from and why is he so lovely and how can I surreptitiously arrange to hang out with him more?' After that day, I popped round for tea at my friend’s house way more often. We fell in love. We sang 'I Was Made for Lovin' You' together at our friend's wedding the following week and a few years later, I walked down the aisle towards him. This single tracks the beginning of our relationship and follows it into an unknown future."
The song peaked at number 100 on the ARIA Singles Chart.
