The song started as a demo written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil. Initially, they planned to give the song to the Righteous Brothers to record, before Mann shared an interest in recording it himself after he got his own record deal. In the end, neither of them got the song because the Animals recorded it first. It's lucky for them that they did, as it ended up being one of the group's biggest hits.
