and Perry. Tyler said that "I sat down at the drums and hit this rhythm that came out of [Perry's] guitar lick. One inspired the other." According to Perry, Kalodner brought Childs in to work on the bridge of a different song that ended up not being used on the album. But the band needed a bridge for F.I.N.E. and the discarded one worked in this song. Aerosmith biographer Martin Power described the song as Aerosmith's "best moment since Rocks "Lick and a Promise." He says that it "doesn't so much rock as spontaneously combust" with piled up guitars, broken drumskins and a groove that is uniquely Aerosmith's, while Tyler "rides the musical wave" with his vocal performance. Power describes the final line as a "killer punchline": "I hear that you're so tight you loving squeaks/And I'm ready, so ready." Meaning of acronym In the album liner notes, F.I.N.E. is said to stand for "Fucked up, Insecure, Neurotic and Emotional," which Tyler described as being his "constant state." The acronym was popularized by the Aerosmith song for clinical use. This may have an association to the rehabilitation programs such as A.A. and N.A. Many such programs use this phrase to describe the feeling of your life being out of control. The acronym is also discussed in the movies The Italian Job [Freaked Out, Insecure, Neurotic, Emotional] and Scream 2 and in the show Happy Valley (series 1 episode 4). As well as the movie “Deadpool 2”. Liv Tyler also references this as a nod to her father at the end of the movie Super starring Rainn Wilson. During her scene with the rehabilitation group session she is heard stating "fucked up, insecure, neurotic, and emotional." In other media The song is featured in Walt Disney World's Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith in the coaster car with the license plate "BUHBYE" which also features "Young Lust" and a reworked version of "Love in an Elevator" that is re-titled as "Love in a Rollercoaster". F.I.N.E. was also the name of a hard rock band from Portland, ME. F.I.N.E. was also used as part of a quote in The Italian Job twice during the movie. F.I.N.E. was also referenced in the BBC drama Happy Valley by Sgt Catherine Cawood in Season 1 Episode 4.
