The song comes from the soundtrack to the new Dave-directed movie What Drives Us, released on Friday. “I do not do well on vacation,” he said, when the host pointed out that he’s never not doing anything, even when there’s nothing to do because of COVID.

For the movie, Dave interviewed legends including Lars Ulrich, U2 guitarist The Edge, Beatles drummer Ringo Starr and Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler among others, to understand what makes them keep going. On Steven Tyler, Dave joked, "I interviewed him for about two hours 20 minutes. Those 10 minutes of stuff I could actually understand? Solid gold.”
