"Girl All the Bad Guys Want"
Song


"Girl All the Bad Guys Want" is a hit single by Texas band Bowling for Soup, from their 2002 album Drunk Enough to Dance. The song reached #8 on the UK Singles Chart and #64 on the US Hot 100, and was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award for "Best Pop Performance by a Group or Duo". It came after a dry spell for the band and was followed by the popular album A Hangover You Don't Deserve, leading frontman Jaret Reddick to refer to it as "the career-saving song" on MTV.

In the video they make little spoofs of other music videos, throughout the video the band make a spoof of the band Staind's "It's Been Awhile" and at the end they make a spoof of Limp Bizkit's Break Stuff, both of which were directed by Fred Durst. Sid, Joey and Clown from Slipknot also make an appearance at the end of the video.

The song was written by Butch Walker (formerly of Marvelous 3), who has also written songs for Avril Lavigne and SR-71.
