Chart performance
On the Canadian Hot 100, the song peaked at number 52.
Despite heavy radio play on BBC Radio 1, the song missed the UK Singles Chart Top 100 and peaked at #107, the first time the band had missed the UK Top 100 for a single.
The song has peaked at number 46 on the Australian ARIA Charts and has also become a radio hit there peaking at number 6 on the Australian Airplay charts.[1]
Music video
A music video was shot as a promotional effort for the single and was released on June 1, 2009. The director was Phil Griffin. It captures the band performing in a dimly-lit, debris-filled room with imploding fiery brick walls adjacent to an alleyway bordered by another brick barrier that is used by the lead singer in a manner suggestive of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem.
