This video was it: the actual video to the song.

This is what the others were (essentially) teasers for, what they were building up to.

I'm not sure why this is hard to grasp.

I think it's great that Stone is playing bass on this track, but why did he and Jeff have to switch spots? Is that the only way their guitar techs know how to plug in the amps and string the wires? Get back in your assigned spots Stone and Jeff, you are making me uncomfortable

Because I watched the first two, I only watched the first qtr of the final one, because I didn't need to see it again with some generic band footage thrown in, so this crazy mach tactic failed for me.

Still can't believe they're doing all this now, and it's still nearly two months until the record is out. Certainly stifles the buzz if you're an interested observer.

I am glad I can listen to this song three times in a row and be able say I was “just watching all these different videos”, and not feel as if I may be listening a little excessively.

It’s just that good!

I like this newest video. And I liked the first two... but Mach 2 seems really unnecessary if you have 1 (no band) and 3 (all band).

Fair enough but what was the Jamily supposed to do for the first week of February with no Mach II?

Fine if you're feigning outrage for "humorous" purposes on a message board, though, if there's anyone out there truly bothered by these sorts of things (and I genuinely hope there is not), you are indeed leading a truly charmed life. Who gives a Mach?
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

I liked this song better when it was introduced by Bill Simmons and rapped over by Sugarhill Gang

True, Ed had the indecency and audacity to put something like this out for you and have a long wait set up for you afterward but he already banked on you running back like a prodigal son on March 27th. He has it covered.
I pledge to be 100% boring and never troll-out again. I will make my interactions here pleasant, like sitting through an agricultural economics class.

I do think they could’ve just dropped the album already given the instant gratification times we live in, but I’ve got plenty of music to keep me occupied until it’s here.
