It includes three tracks ("Loving You Sets Me Free", "Cruel With Me" and "The World We Love So Much") that had already been released on Alexander's 1989 debut album Michigan Rain. It also includes rerecordings of "Michigan Rain" and "Save Me From Myself" from that album.

Both "Smokin' In Bed" and "The Truth" were released as one-track promotional singles, and had videos filmed.[2][3]

"The Truth" includes the line "Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes/Are you ready?/Here comes the lawsuit, baby", followed by Alexander covering the refrain of "Slow Ride" by Foghat. There is also a reference to the "Tutti Frutti" line "A wop-bom a loo-mop".
