Trivia[]

The hidden track "Bite Me" can be heard at the very end of this song's track on the Off the Deep End CD after ten minutes of silence (inspired by the hidden track "Endless, Nameless" found at the end of some CD issues of Nirvana's Nevermind album).
"Now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will" is considered to be Al's most serious line in a song.
The music video for this song shares some similarities to that of "Smells Like Nirvana", likely filmed around the same time. The same drum set (featuring a kick drum head with "DRUM" written on it) is used, and the janitor from "Smells Like Nirvana" also makes an appearance.
The singer Robert Goulet has a cameo in the music video as the piano player who gets a cello bow in his eye and his hand cut off.
Al's record label was reluctant to issue a single and film a video for the song, as it wasn't a direct parody and thus was unlikely to become a hit; they insisted that the video be a parody of an existing one, so Al modeled it after Extreme's "More Than Words", which led many people to assume the song was also a parody
When the camera goes around the room, a condom can be seen on a golf club. This was done by a set designer as a joke, and it was not caught until after filming was completed. Al never worked with that set designer again.
During the 2018 Vanity Tour Al said that You Don't Love Me Anymore is a pastiche of a band so obscure that no one has ever guessed it, and he will take it to his grave. During his 2022 tour a fan asked him if it was based off of Nicolette Larson's Still You Linger On and Al was surprised that someone had figured it out, but he did confirm it.
Al and Nicolette Larson briefly dated in the late 80s. She also sang backup on Alimony and Good Old Days.
