"Another believe it or not, this left-over from
Siamese Dream was written in the last-minute crush.
Butch Vig never thought much of it, but it is one of
my secret favorites. A simple song of innocence that
has double-tracked, finger-picked acoustic and drum
machine, and was recorded at home." -BC (Guitar World 1/97)
