Cherry Pie (Warrant song)
"Cherry Pie" is a song by the American heavy metal band Warrant. It was released in September 1990 as the lead single from the album of the same name. The song became a Top Ten hit on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100, reaching number 10 and also reached number 19 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks. The song has been cited by many as a "rock anthem".〔(Press release )〕 In 2009, it was named the 56th best hard rock song of all time by VH1.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://music.spreadit.org/vh1-top-100-hard-rock-songs/ )〕
Despite its success, a daylong MTV special on the best and worst music videos of all time, ''MTV's Triumphs and Tragedies'', listed the song's video as one of the worst.
==Background and writing==
"Cherry Pie" was not originally planned to be put on the album, and lead guitarist Joey Allen has stated that the album was originally going to be called ''Quality You Can Taste'' (frontman Jani Lane recalled this differently, stating that the title was supposed to be ''Uncle Tom's Cabin''〔VH1, ''Heavy: The Story of Metal''〕). The president of Columbia Records, Don Ienner, wanted a rock anthem, so he called frontman Jani Lane (according to Lane, he wanted a "Love in an Elevator" type song), who wrote the song in about fifteen minutes. Allen stated that "the whole marketing and everything for that record changed. It was definitely driven by the label and not the band."〔(Interview with Joey Allen ) 〕 The song was written down on a pizza box which is now on display in the Hard Rock Cafe in Destin, Florida, part of the Destin Commons. The guitar solo was played by C.C. DeVille as a favor to Lane, who was a long-time friend.
Many of the band members felt that "Cherry Pie" is not one of the better songs on the album, and see the song as a double-edged sword: it brought them fame, but many of their other songs are overshadowed by the major hit. On VH1's ''HEAVY: The Story Of Metal'' episode 3: "Looks That Kill," Lane expressed his regret for writing the song, stating that "I could shoot myself in the fucking head for writing that song." However, he later clarified that he had been under personal stress at the time of the VH1 interview, and had no ill feelings towards his association with the song:〔(Blabbermouth.net )〕
