Josh Homme had been carrying "Make It Wit Chu" around for years before Queens of the Stone Age gave it a proper home on Era Vulgaris, their fifth album, in 2007. It first surfaced in 2003 as "I Wanna Make It wit Chu" on The Desert Sessions Volumes 9 & 10, with PJ Harvey singing backup, co-written by Homme, Alain Johannes and Dean Ween of Ween.
The Queens' version is a slow, swaggering bedroom blues, Homme crooning over a slinky groove and touching up the edges with Rhodes piano while Joey Castillo keeps the hips moving. Brody Dalle, Chris Goss and Troy Van Leeuwen are among the voices cooing behind him; Goss and Homme produced, and Joe Barresi mixed. It went out as the album's third single that October.
