Alice In Chains recorded "What the Hell Have I" for the soundtrack for the 1993 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie Last Action Hero. They released the song as a single and it reached #19 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
The song was written for their breakthrough album Dirt, but shelved and later used for the movie soundtrack.
From the liner notes of the Music Bank box set, AIC guitarist Jerry Cantrell said of the song, "This and 'A Little Bitter' were mixed by Andy Wallace because Toby [Wright] had a previous commitment, and they always bothered me because they were too "tinny" compared to our other stuff. So I was happy to see Toby finish his work off with the remixes [on Music Bank ]. That's not to disrespect Andy, it's just that he wasn't there when they were being created. Toby's like a brother, he knows all our shit, all our personalities and we don't trust anybody unless we've got something on them.
