Despite the song's moderate success, the band hardly ever performed it live after the 1993-1994 Get a Grip Tour.

Video

The video for the song was also one of the only songs from Aerosmith's Geffen era not released on the video collection Big Ones You Can Look At. The live performance portions of the video were filmed during the day at The Summit in Houston, Texas before Aerosmith's performance there on September 30, 1994. The video was directed by Marty Callner, and featured cameo appearances by Pamela Anderson and A&R man John Kalodner.

In 2009, drummer Joey Kramer admitted on That Metal Show that this is his least favorite Aerosmith video.
