The song is based upon guitarist Zakk Wylde's opinion of New York City as he has explained in a video guitar lesson with Guitar World Magazine. In the same interview Wylde also explained that one of the other influences on the structure of the song was guitarist Jimmy Page because of the mixed guitar styles.

Video

It had an animated music video, which is a regular feature on MTV2's Headbanger's Ball. The video showed Zakk Wylde being driven around what appears to be New York City. The video does include the other band members of Black Label Society, but mainly revolves around frontman Wylde.

gollark: I don't actually *want* a programming language mostly, I want to specify a bunch of configuration options for what to do when starting the service and such.
gollark: fish is somewhat nicer.
gollark: It's too stringy, unsafe (not in the memory-safety way), lacking useful constructs from any modern language ever (USABLE ARRAYS?!), and... well, that's it really.
gollark: systemd makes them unable to do stuff like have memory be writable and executable at once, gain extra capabilities, see most system folders and /home, and such.
