Music video

A total of three videos were released on the band's YouTube account.

The music video for the single, directed by Marc Webb, is somewhat unorthodox for a Rejects video, as it is the first in which band members portray characters other than themselves. Lead vocalist Tyson Ritter plays dual roles as a traditional family man and his rowdy next-door neighbor who fronts a noisy garage band. When the rocker Tyson's nocturnal racket keeps the family-man Tyson awake at night, it sets off a prank war between the two rivals. The conflict comes to a head one evening as the neighbors confront each other on the rockers' lawn, where the musician and his band has set up loud outdoor concert. As the twin Tysons bicker, their wives quietly propose swapping spouses. The family man seems oddly intrigued by the offer, and the two men have switched homes by the video's end, with the family man singing with the garage band, and the rocker feeding the fish with his rival's wife. The second version of the video shows a traditional band performance of the song.

The third version, called the "Narrative Version", is more story-oriented than the other two. It includes more detailed footage of various scenes, including the conclusion, where the family-man is rocking out to impress the rocker's girlfriend. But the main difference from the original version doesn't come till the very end, when the rocker is seen sliding into bed with the family-man's wife.

Charts

The song entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number sixty nine. It climbed the chart steadily for seven weeks before breaking into the top ten at number ten,[3] giving the band their third top ten hit on the chart. The next week the song rose to number six where it stayed for five consecutive weeks before rising to peak at number four, making it the band's most successful single to date and their first to break into the top five. The song hit number one on the US Airplay Chart and held the position for three weeks.[3] The song has sold over 3,000,000 paid digital downloads,[4] making the All American Rejects the only group in US chart history to have three singles with over two million sales each. The song made an impressive performance and stayed on the Billboard top 10 charts for over 13 weeks

The song was a success internationally and became the All-American Rejects best selling single worldwide. The track peaked in the top five in Canada and Australia and in the top twenty in the UK, Ireland and New Zealand.
