I just think its interesting - the Big Daddy album is by far John's least commercial album, and this song is the centerpiece of the album, practically summing up this whole period of his carrer...and it's the poppiest, most commercial sounding song on the record. Not that it's a bad thing. I think it was the right statement for him at the time. Funny side note - listening to this song in the car with someone unfamiliar with it, and they asked "Why is he singing about Bob Seger?!" Classic.
