I Choose was the second single from The Offspring's fourth album, Ixnay on the Hombre. The single did not enjoy a lot of success and was omitted from the band's Greatest Hits album.
The video for the song was directed by the band's lead singer and songwriter, Dexter Holland. The video takes place in an airport, where people are dancing. A skateboarder skates through. When his bag is checked, the x-ray sees a "ticking clock". Thinking that it is a bomb, a security guard chases him down only to open his bag and find a Flava Flav style clock necklace. On the Greatest Hits DVD, the band joked about the idea of making a video like this now, with the seriousness of airport security. The band considered it one of the band's better music videos.
