"Hypnotize" is a song by Armenian American rock band System of a Down. It was released in October 2005 as the lead single from their fourth studio album of the same name. The video was filmed on September 28, 2005, at the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It reached number one on Billboard's Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart[1] and is the band's biggest international hit.

Music video

The music video is mostly footage from one of the band's September 2005 concerts, (filmed at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Michigan) but includes a CGI scene of painting along with the music; the audio is dubbed over with the studio track.[2]
