Jim Vallance composed the instrumental parts for the song between Christmas and New Year's Eve 1988. He then mailed a demo of the song with guitar, piano, bass, drums, and horn synthesizer to Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler, who came up with the lyrics and vocal melody.[4] The songwriting team of Holland-Dozier-Holland were eventually given songwriting credit on the song after threatening to file suit over similarities between "The Other Side" and their song "Standing in the Shadows of Love".[4]
