This is featured in the Kevin Costner movie Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, where it plays over the credits. This song was written to order for the movie, initially by American film composer Michael Kamen, with the middle eight, break, outro and arrangement added by Adams and producer Mutt Lange. Adams told Mixdown the writing process for this song: "Well, we had received a tape from my old friend David Kershenbaum with about twenty minutes of music that had been written by film composer Michael Kamen. I remember was a little fragment which we ended up liking a lot (the intro to the song). I went into the other room and read the script and told Mutt that there was a line in the film that could be an interesting angle for a title: I do it for you... an hour later we had written the whole song including the melody and middle eight in about an hour."
