Inspiration
In a BBC "Mastertapes" interview, Natalie said the song "... was about a child born with a congenital disease." - a set of twins she had known personally.
In popular culture
The topic of the song (that a physically handicapped person can overcome her disability) is continued in RJ Palacio's book of the same name.
The song is sung by Bob's Burgers character Teddy over the end credits of the episode "The Millie-churian Candidate", Season 5, episode 12.
