==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
The song, when it was still called "The Sweetest One of All", was demoed several times by the band in September of [[2002]] at the S.I.R. rehearsal studios. It was then recorded during the band's second attempt at making ''Make Believe'', at Grandmaster Recorders in Los Angeles, CA. The sessions lasted from July 22 to October 22, 2004. It was one of 12 songs that Rivers Cuomo asked to band to only concentrate on, which he felt were the right songs for the album. Until early [[2005]], the song was designated to be the tenth track. Ultimately the song was excluded from the final track list for unknown reasons and remains unreleased to this day.<br> | The song, when it was still called "The Sweetest One of All", was demoed several times by the band in September of [[2002]] at the S.I.R. rehearsal studios.

Though the full song recorded by the band remains unreleased, a short, rough clip of the song could be heard on the "''Making of [[Make Believe]]''" Enhanced CD bonus featurette (see below). Cuomo's original, slower-paced demo from July of [[2004]] was one of hundreds of demos leaked online through the [[riverscuomo.com demos|demo storefront]] on [[riverscuomo.com]] on [[November 7]], [[2020]]. The song was purchased by a user a few days later on [[November 11]], whereupon it was shared freely with fans. The demo was made available for purchase to all on [[November 22]], as part of the digital compilation ''[[Alone IX: The Make Believe Years]]''. | |||
