I could put it out as a bonus track or something but I don't want that, it needs to be in a movie." But we didn't get the clearance in time to make the movie deadline. So I wrote Jimmy Page a letter because with LED ZEPPELIN you have to get permission and blessing from the guys, Jimmy, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones. This was for the movie 'Lords Of Dogtown'. Sony Pictures asked we do something so we did a wonderful version of LED ZEPPELIN's 'Misty Mountain Hop'. Chad gave it to his attorney and within 24 hours he came back with a movie soundtrack offer!

I said OK, this sounds good - what do you have in mind? So he said STEVIE WONDER.
