The track was speculated to have been included on the soundtrack to Chapter 27, but this did not happen, and according to the band's guitarist Richard Fortus the track will be included on the band's forthcoming studio album Chinese Democracy.
Sean Lennon has gone on record calling the production and making of the film, including Lindsay Lohan's involvement with it, "tacky."
