[edit] Music video
The music video is about how an average guy attempts to impress a popular girl (Eliza Dushku) by trying to perform dangerous activities but other cooler guys interrupt to take his place and fail to succeed while getting injured. It is also famous for the surreal sequence when the typical cool guy Sebastien Lefebvre gets crashed by a school bus. The music video was made with actors from "The New Guy", such as DJ Qualls, who stars in the movie; as such, it was released as an extra on "The New Guy" DVD. Dushku stars in this movie as the female lead.
