"Crazy" is the fourth single from Simple Plan's second studio album, Still Not Getting Any.... The video of the single starts out in black and white. As it reaches the end, it slowly changes to color, symbolizing that no matter how grim life is, it will get better.

[edit] Charts

"Crazy" was not able to make it to the US Billboard Hot 100. The video, however, received critical acclaim on MTV. It peaked at the #1 position on TRL. The song also became another top 5 hit in Canada, peaking at the #4 position. This song is also one of the more serious songs on their CD, Still Not Getting Any..., talking about today's society and its issues and problems.

[edit] Music Video

The video deals with society's moral perversity. It contains a woman, who seems to want to have plastic surgery, a gothic female teenager, a female teenager with a history of self injury, a group of people with obesity problems, a military man shunned from society, a drug addicted homeless man, an interracial date, and a kid with cancer. The video starts in black and white, but progressively changes to color throughout the video.
