Matchbox Twenty 's second album, "Mad Season". The song peaked to #48 on theBillboard Hot 100 and #76 on theUK Singles Chart .Music video
The song's music video, directed by
Phil Harder , shows the band getting off a plane, and being surrounded by screaming fans trying to grab them. They are wearing what appear to be special passes, which say "Rock Star" on them, around their necks. Police are there trying to keep everything under control. The band eventually makes it safely to their limousine, but then the crowd climbs all over the car, and it can't go anywhere. The police fail to keep things under control, and the fans break the windows of the limousine. When they get inside, they rip the "Rock Star" passes off the band members, and then they leave. This suggests that they didn't really care about the band; they just wanted the passes.Chart positions
