A brief clip of the track was released in December 2010; the full song was released to radio on March 1, 2011.

'Exclaim!' magazine comments on the song saying "[d]espite the title and lyrics, it doesn't sound particularly sad, as it contains a cheery beat and a catchy mix of synths and guitars". Critics have noted the similarity of "Sad Song" to the band's earlier singles, such as 1978's "My Best Friend's Girl" and 1979's "Let's Go".
"Sad Song" peaked at number 33 on the 'Billboard' Rock Songs chart.
