Composition
The song is known for its striking resemblance to the style of music which was popular in the 1960s. The song consists of a memorable opening riff, heavy use of the bass, and the use of a concert bass drum during the main chorus. The album (and this song especially) demonstrated a milestone in STP's sound, for a large amount of jazz fusion and trip rock could be heard throughout the album. Scott Weiland's trademark low growl was replaced with a higher croon.
