[edit] Music video
The music video for "Anthem Part II" never had a significant amount of airplay, due to the fact it was not an official single. The video is not the studio version of the song, but a live version recorded at The Tweeter Center recorded in Chicago. The video contains clips of the band performing the song, and in and out clips of the band backstage. The video became available worldwide on iTunes recently. An audio version of the single is available as an extra track on the "Stay Together For the Kids" cd single. It should also be noted that the performance of the song is faster than the studio version.
