"Steer" was the first single from On a Clear Night, Missy Higgins's second album, going out in Australia on 14 April 2007, and it was the most-added track that very week. Higgins wrote it alone after gazing out at the southern night sky from a bay in Western Australia, and it rides on a backing of acoustic guitar and drums. Mitchell Froom produced, and David Boucher recorded and mixed.

It went straight to number one on the Australian singles chart in its first week, knocking Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend" off the top for a week and giving Higgins her second chart-topper after "Scar" in 2004. It finished 2007 at 60 on the year-end chart.
