  • Shinedown drummer Barry Kerch told Bravewords.com how this song got onto the soundtrack for The Avengers movie: "It was left over from the Amaryllis sessions," he explained. "They were looking for a song and we had a couple. They liked that one so we went in the studio and re-tracked it, added some stuff and changed the arrangement a little bit for the soundtrack; but it was definitely an idea already in place."
