Goo Goo Dolls' iconic love ballad has been reimagined by legendary electronic music pioneer Steve Aoki into a high-energy dance track. The collaboration was sparked when Steve invited Goo Goo Dolls singer John Rzeznik to perform the song with him at the Stagecoach festival in 2025. The crowd loved it, so Steve decided to rework it into something he could play at future festivals and shows.
