"We're All to Blame"
Song

"We're All to Blame" is the title of a song recorded by Canadian group Sum 41. It was released in August 2004 as first single from Chuck.

Content

The band has stated that the song is about the "state of the world due to war, people dying, people living in fear, and the power of corporations, amongst other concerns." The song is one of the most critically acclaimed Sum 41 singles. It was written after their trip to the Congo, making it the last song written for Chuck ("Noots" was originally going to be track 3 on the album, but was cut right after "We're All To Blame" was recorded).

Music video

The video, directed by Marc Klasfeld, is a spoof of Solid Gold and features the Solid Gold dancers. At the end of the video, the announcer says that the next guest is Pain For Pleasure, Sum 41's heavy metal alter ego band.
