A shame the title track of this album got the attention, it's a sucky song (even Jani admitted that after writing it) because there is a slew of gems on this release. The album was originally supposed to be called Uncle Tom's Cabin but when Jani wrote Cherry at the last minute to get another filler tune on the album, the record company changed the album name and cover, the single release, the MtV vid, etc. Made lots of cash I'm sure for some big corp record exec, but kind of killed the writing credibility of the band as a whole.
