The song makes me glad that the video consists of nothing but a sexy girl cutting an apple. But as much as this isn't up my alley, I still thought it was pretty good.

Def a great lead single from this album. Created the necessary hype for the second single which I hope is Some Nights. One of my favs on their album.

the first what? The first alternative song, I'm guessing? More like, first alternative debut song. Before Fun, Nickelback was the last alternative rock band to hit #1 with their first Hot 100 entry with "How You Remind Me".

The more I hear this song, the more I realize that it sucks. Or at least, isn't very good.

Yeah, when was the last time a rock song did really well on pop? I'm thinking back in 2009 with "Use Somebody" and "Second Chance."
