"I Hate Everything About You"

"I Hate Everything About You" is the debut single of the alternative metal Canadian rock band Three Days Grace, from their debut self-titled album.

Music Video

The music video starts zoomed in towards an ash tray, and then transitions towards the mic where the lead singer, Adam Gontier, starts singing the song's lyrics. Soon, the video shows three teenagers going through a disastrous moment in their lives. One shows a young boy who finds his girlfriend cheating on him in the alleyway, kissing another guy. He is spying on them in his car. The 2nd teenager, is a young girl, who just broke up with her boyfriend, and the last boy who is being abused by his father. Towards the end they are all seen smashing items relating to their hard times into a hill. The young boy spying on his cheating girlfriend whips a portrait of a picture of them, smashing it to pieces. The 2nd teenager, the girl, who is seen smashing her notebook of gooshy mooshy love notes with her ex-boyfriend into the hill. The last boy, who is suffering child abuse. Throws his drunken father's nice refreshing beverages into the hill.
