This song almost didn't make it onto Fortress. Guitarist Mark Tremonti explained to MusicRadar.com: "It's got this hammer-on thing, and Scott (Phillips, drums) was like, 'That's just like a Tool riff.' So, for a while there, we were like, 'OK, let's shelve this and move on.'" "But eventually, we came back to it," he added, "and said, 'OK, let's just make this as un-Tool-like as possible and go with it.' Everybody is influenced by somebody or something – a lot of times, it's a subconscious thing – so if an idea is really strong, you just have to give in and see it through." "The song was a dark horse," Tremonti concluded, "and for a while we were probably thinking it was a B-side track. Once we finished it, it seemed to jump out at us. I guess we didn't know what we had all along. Now it's one of our favorites."
