"I Don't Care" is a song by the Finnish cello rock band Apocalyptica, featuring Adam Gontier of Three Days Grace on lead vocals. The song was originally released on Apocalyptica's sixth studio album Worlds Collide on September 14, 2007, but was re-recorded for the US release of said album, and shall also appear on the single release.
Re-Recording
Eicca said in an interview: "We've reworked the song. Adam originally recorded his vocals in the spring (of 2007) with our producer (Jacob Hellner), but Adam wasn't entirely happy with the result. So a couple of weeks ago, Adam went to the studio with (3DG producer) Howard Benson to record a new version of the song. It's really great. It will actually be on the US/Canadian edition (due in stores April 15th)."

Music video
As far as the concept of the video goes, "It's going to be a bit freaky," says Eicca. "It'll be surrealistic in many ways, maybe a little bit in the spirit of Tim Burton. There's acrobats, strange-looking people doing strange things. It's going to be shot in an old house where nobody lives; it's a big mansion. It's really spooky. Of course, the director, Lisa Mann, is the only person who really knows at the moment, but it's exciting for us. She really wants to bring out the people inside the band. It feels completely different. It has a really special look."
The video was released on May 19th, 2008 on YouTube.[1]
The video shows the band playing in a decrepit house. The band plays in a small room with a low roof (Adam Gontier has to hunch over in order to stand) next the video shows members from the band and other women entering in and out of little doors. In the next scene, it shows the band, Gontier, and more women in a hallway standing still, dancing, walking and playing. Next, there enter three women. In this dance sequence, the women dance around the three cello players, trying to seduce them, but they pay no attention. In a cutaway, it shows the three men playing. Cut back, and the three women sit in their laps. Then it shows the men playing the women like cellos. Next scene shows Gontier dancing with a woman trying to push her away. Next scene shows women licking the band members. In a cutaway scene continuing from the dance sequence, the women take their cellos away. In the last scene, it shows everybody in a room surrounding a table, eating, drinking, laughing, talking, dancing, and kissing. In the end, the band and Adam Gontier finish playing and a greenlight is shown shining behind them. The video is very Tim Burton-esque.
