It is one of their biggest hits, reaching 1 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart on July 5, 2003, for a week, and staying on the chart for 36 weeks.

It placed No. 65 on the Billboard Hot 100, lower than their prior single, "The Red", at No. 56.
The song's music video, directed by Jeff Richter, revolves around a snowboarder and his difficulties in striving for excellent performance. The band is seen playing the song in a dark room, with their breath creating fog in the cold air.
