<P> "When I first heard it," recalled drummer Joey Kramer, "it was just a demo with piano and singing . It was difficult to imagine what kind of touch Aerosmith could put on it and make it our own...As soon as we began playing it as a band, then it instantly became an Aerosmith song ." </P> <P> This song was Aerosmith's biggest hit, debuting at number 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, where it stayed for four weeks in September, and reaching number 1 around the world, including Australia, the Philippines, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Austria, Norway, Italy, the Netherlands, and Switzerland . </P> <P> The song helped introduce Aerosmith to a new generation and remains a slow dance staple . </P> <P> It was one of many songs written by Warren in that period . The original version was a collaboration between Chicago musician Phil Kosch of Treaty of Paris and Super Happy Fun Club, and nephew of chart topping writer Lou Bega . Bega introduced the two and they penned the initial track, but ultimately Kosch was uncredited . </P>
