General

Right at the beginning of this song you can hear Greg screaming "Jimmy" with an English accent. This is a reference to Jimmy Pursey[1], the founder and frontman of English punkband Sham 69.

Video

There's a video clip for New America in which two kids can be seen playing with action figures representing the band members. At one point the Graffin figure is seen throwing up; in the early draft of the video, however, that figure was Baker.[2]

The single was released to Alt Radio stations on March 8, 2000. It did not chart on any major chart worldwide.
