Josephina

This song was added to the Van Halen III album at the last minute to replace That's Why I Love You. The album's release date was pushed back from 02/24/98 to 03/17/98 to accommodate this change.

The song is about the parents of the band members and their past, little- known lives. Gary Cherone's mother's name is Josephina.

The music for the song involved many subtle sounds including the sound of leader tape being yanked through piano strings during the chorus.
