* CreatorBacklash: When asked about "Cherry Pie" in an interview with VH1, Jani lamented, "I could shoot myself in the fucking head for writing that song." However, later on he admitted that he'd been caught at a bad time and clarified that he liked the song and was happy so many people enjoyed it, but regretted that it overshadowed a lot of other stuff they did.

* BlackSheepHit: "Cherry Pie". It's not really atypical of their style, but it was a song the label wanted them to write and became a much bigger hit than the band expected it to (Jani Lane wrote the lyrics out quickly on an empty pizza box). The band still doesn't know what to make of it after all these years; while they're proud that they managed to write such an iconic song, they also seem to see the fact that a semi-parodic ClicheStorm that was written in less than an hour as a way of shutting up their label became one of their biggest hits by a long shot is pretty pathetic.

Adding insult to injury is the fact that the parent album was otherwise quite dark and even mature at times, making the song stick out like a sore thumb.
