[edit] Music video

The video, directed by Joe Hahn, takes place during a riot. In the middle of the riot are Mike Shinoda and Chester Bennington. The video is centred around a child who is abandoned by his guardian during the chaos. The child wanders around in the midst of the riot. Towards the climax the child screams just like Chester which knocks down the entire crowd and therefore stops the riot and all the rubble starts rising and eventually falls when the child runs out of breath.

The video was filmed between the bands Europe '03 tour in Prague in the Czech Republic. The making of the video can be found on LPTV ("Season 2") episode 4.

[edit] Charts

The song is the least successful single from Meteora, since it's the only single from the album that never hit #1 or chart on Modern Rock Tracks. It also failed to chart anywhere else on other U.S. music charts and became the lowest charting single in many other countries, despite acclaim from fans.
