History
The song was written by Survivor members Gary Smith, Frankie Sullivan and Jim Peterik for their band to perform on their first album, Survivor. Producer Ron Nevison felt the song wasn't right for the record, however, so it was nixed. The song's rough mix was given to 38 Special's manager Mark Spector. The band recorded the tune and loved it, and it eventually became 38 Special's first hit.[3]

gollark: In any case, it still seems really stupid wanting to control what order your dragons are viewed in, to me at least, especially since by default you'd see their chosen sort.
gollark: Byeyeye!
gollark: Yes, hence an option.
