"From out of Nowhere" was Faith No More's first single featuring Mike Patton on vocals. The band has been quoted saying about the video "We didn't know what we were doing."
The song was also in the games Madden NFL 2005 and NHL 05.
[edit] The Music Video
The music video was purposely tongue-in-cheek. It seems to be a subtle parody of hair metal bands at the time.
According to the web site there are two very different versions of this video. When you play both version next to each other you will find that some shots are different. Some of the videos found on the internet are the 'second version' videos.
The first version features Mike Patton in spandex shorts and a black and blue coat. Words come across many times during the video on the screen. And some of the shots are exteriors.
In the second version Patton is wearing camouflage shorts, a black undershirt, and sunglasses. Billy Gould is using a different bass, and there are no exterior shots, as well as only few words going across the screen. Only a few shots are kept from the first version, being some of the shots of Puffy (Mike Bordin).
