youtube/watch?v=NHZS8S6O4-Y In the liner notes of 1999s Music Bank box set collection, Jerry said of the song, That whole beat and grind of that is when we started to find ourselves; it helped Alice become what it was. The song makes use of a talk box to create the guitar effect. The original Facelift track listing credited only Layne with writing the lyrics and Jerry with writing the music. All post-Facelift compilations credited the entire band. It is unclear as to why the songwriter credits were changed. Released as a single in 1991 after being featured on the groups debut full-length album Facelift (1990), the song was included on the compilation albums Nothing Safe: Best of the Box (1999), Music Bank (1999), Greatest Hits (2001), and The Essential Alice in Chains (2006), and is a playable track in the video game Rock Band 2. The song is also played in the 2000 film The Perfect Storm. MITB was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance in 1992. It was number 19 on VH1s VH1 40 Greatest Metal Songs, its solo was rated the 77th greatest guitar solo by Guitar World, and was number 50 on VH1s 100 Greatest Songs of the 90s in 2007. The music video was nominated for Best Heavy Metal/Hard Rock Video at the 1991 MTV Video Music Awards.
