This song was written about James Kimo Maano, a security guard and a good friend of Bret Michaels. Maano’s death inspired the song and, during the making of the video, footage of James Kimo Maano appeared on the screen behind Michaels in order to get a response from him. Michaels became so upset that he had to stop singing and it would be several hours before Michaels could return to the set and continue filming.
The director who so upset Bret Michaels was Marty Callner, who has directed videos for everyone from Aerosmith to Justin Timberlake. He directed several videos for Poison, both before and after the video for Something To Believe In.
Enjoy!
