[[Weezer]] worked on the song during full-band sessions in the summer of 1998, but a mixed-down demo does not exist. Cherry Berry was seemingly left behind with the rest of the 1998 songs when Weezer returned from hiatus in early [[2000]]. However, Cherry Berry was considered for inclusion on ''[[The Green Album]]'' during pre-production. | [[Weezer]] worked on the song during full-band sessions in the summer of 1998, but a mixed-down demo does not exist.

According to Karl Koch, "''[Cherry Berry's return was] Pat and Mikey saying "that song ruled why did we forget about it"? It's a rocker, I don't disagree it deserved fresh attention.''" The song did not make the cut for the Green Album. | According to Karl Koch, "''[Cherry Berry's return was] [[Patrick Wilson|Pat]] and [[Mikey Welsh|Mikey]] saying "that song ruled why did we forget about it"?

Rivers' demo of the song was not included with the release of ''[[Alone VI: The Black Room]]''. According to Rivers, he could not find a copy of the recording. When asked during a [[June 16]], [[2021]] discussion in [[Riverchat]] if he could play the song during a hypothetical solo acoustic show, Rivers said "''I could do that but it would be acoustic. Actually you've never heard the song so you don't know how strange that seems.''" | Rivers' demo of the song was not included with the release of ''[[Alone VI: The Black Room]]''.
