Background

The song is the very first song Cornell recorded with Timbaland, the song seems to talk about someone who loves someone, but of course, that someone does not like him. Cornell also explained that this song is his favorite track off the album. The song has a hip-hop-ish beat but is made to sound like pop-music completely through. Cornell does use a real guitar in the song, but uses Timbaland's drum machine for other instruments in the track.
