The Remind Me Songfacts reports that doing a song together had been on the radar of the two stars for a while. Once Paisley pushed back the release date of This Is Country Music, the pair were finally able to find the time to sort out a tune. When Paisley had an idea for a song about a couple finding their way back to what used to be, he hummed it to Underwood on speakerphone while she was in L.A. hotel room.
She saw the song's potential so Paisley sent her a work tape so they could figure it out together. Underwood recalled: "His son actually had a play date with Sheryl Crow 's son and he asks her – totally puts her on the spot, I'm sure – to sing the female part. I have this work tape demo with Sheryl Crow singing my part. There's mumbling, a few lines here and there."
Underwood saw something in the song and flew back to Nashville to work with Paisley. "They were still changing lines," she noted. "It was the most unorganized thing I had ever been a part of. I had never done anything like that before. It all worked out so perfectly. I was so happy. I felt like that was given to us. I was so excited about the song once the words became established and I was so happy he didn't deliver on time. It kept it in the moment, just doing it off the cuff. It wouldn't have been the same song had we recorded it and recorded it."
