The track was planned to be a hockey anthem yet it rather wound up as a disco/metal mashup that obtained related to fumbling. Mustaine simply wished to create a substitute for Gary Radiance’s “Rock ‘n Roll (Component 2)” after burning out of listening to at hockey video games.
” I really did not desire that person’s track any longer. I wished to create something much better,” Mustaine claimed in the meeting. “So I composed the riff and when I see Bud’s (late band supervisor Bud Prager) verses and I believe to myself, ‘This isn’t what I was believing.’ So yeah, it really did not function.”
