"Whiskey Hangover" was Godsmack's first single in almost two years, a promotional release in 2009 that followed "Good Times, Bad Times", and it was built in a hurry for a reason: the band needed something new for their run on Crüe Fest 2 with Mötley Crüe. Shannon Larkin has said all four of them wrote it together in one room in about three hours, and then Sully spent weeks on the words and still wasn't happy, because the deadline forced his hand; the other three loved it.
It became a fixture of their sets on that tour, went all the way to number one on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart, and later found a place on The Oracle, the band's 2010 album.
