Elliot believes that the first record he ever bought, "Sugar Sugar” by The Archies, was probably his subliminal inspiration for this track, as that song contains the very similar lyric “pour a little sugar on it, baby”. Elliot was also inspired by the recent success of Run DMC’s groundbreaking collaboration with Aerosmith on “Walk This Way”.
