"You're So Damn Hot" appeared on the band's first album. The B-side "Antmusic" (originally performed by Adam and the Ants from the 1980 album 'Kings of the Wild Frontier') was previously released on the band's 'Pink EP' in 2000 while "Bruise Grey" is a remake of one of the band's earlier songs which had appeared on their demo disc.

This song was also part of the 'Madden NFL 2003' and 'Triple Play 2002' soundtracks. It was also a DLC song for Guitar Hero 5.

Music video



A music video was made in 2002. It features the band performing the song in a large recreation hall. Various objects are also shown from time to time such as garbage bags, a wedge of cheese, deer heads, furniture, a Cadillac and different murals. The song is stopped in the middle to show a shot of the band playing ping-pong. The video was directed by Francis Lawrence and was released through the band's website on August 1, 2002. It first aired on MTV on September 2, 2002. The video was created by the same team that did the video for Maroon 5's Harder To Breathe.
