[edit] Alternate versions
The album version features different mixing and also contains a slightly different ending, with a drum beat no longer finishing the song.
A live version is also included on the "Slither" single. This version includes an extended guitar solo at the end of the song.
[edit] Song Structure
The song's main riff was created by the band's guitarist, Slash. The song then goes through two rotations of verse-chorus, then a bridge and a fairly complicated guitar solo by Slash. The song then finishes with another chorus and guitar solo.
[edit] Music Video
The music video, directed by Dean Karr, shows the band playing at a club live, which was the first gig where the Velvet Revolver idea was formed.
