• Sum 41 channel their inner System Of A Down on this song, where they get uncharacteristically political, decrying a Western culture that mongers war (like in Iraq) and turns a blind eye to suffering. Lead singer Deryck Whibley told MTV: "It's about the state of the world, and how it's come to be like this. Directly or indirectly, everyone is somehow to blame one way or another. Whether you have direct involvement or you just choose to be ignorant, we all have some kind of involvement."
• The band expanded their horizons in May 2004 when they traveled to the Democratic Republic of Congo with the War Child Canada relief organization. Most of their third album was written when they got there, but after arriving, Whibley got the idea for a song called "We're All To Blame." Then just a few days into the trip, gunfire broke out near their hotel and they were rushed to safety by a UN peacekeeper named Chuck Pelletier. Whibley lost his train of thought, but when the band flew back to Toronto, he remembered what he wanted to write about. With help from his bandmates, he completed the song and they tacked it on to the album, which they named Chuck in honor of Pelletier. The song was released as the first single from the album.
• In the video, the band appear on the '80s TV show Solid Gold, complete with era-appropriate attire and video effects like cubes and star wipes. It was directed by Marc Klasfeld, who also did their "Fat Lip" video.
