extras whom the man bumps into or passes on the street. During the final chorus the man is shot in the chest by an unseen gunman and bleeds to death on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.[3] In a 2009 interview, singer Matt Caughthran
named it as his favorite of the band's videos and explained its nature:
The idea behind that video was that if the TV was turned all the way down and there was no sound, it would look like a
hip-hop video. The great thing about that was that it actually worked, 'cause I would get interviews, like we were in Sweden for [...] the Hultsfred Festival and I was doing press and I sit down with this lady and she just starts laughing. She goes "I think there's a mistake here. I think this is the wrong band." I'm like "What are you talking about?" She's like "I'm here to interview The Bronx", and I'm like "That's me. I sing for The Bronx." She's like "But you're not black." [...] That was a good moment, 'cause that means the video worked.[4]
