Music video

The song's only music video was that of a live performance dubbed over by the recorded version of the song, and was directed by Jennifer Lebeau.[4] This may have played a part in its lesser success as a single as well as its exclusion from the Greatest Hits compilation album and Complete Music Video Collection DVD. The recording took place at Wembley Arena.

Reception

The song is fairly popular among many Offspring fans, often called the best on Conspiracy of One despite its release as a third single.[5] Aside from being a stronger song, this also may be because it is less deliberately mainstream than the previous two singles and also has a more serious subject matter. However, it is rarely played live and remains one of their less well-known singles.
