It also became one of three songs at the time to almost concurrently break the 52-week record held by [[Thirty Seconds to Mars|30 Seconds to Mars]]' "[[The Kill]]", [[Red Jumpsuit Apparatus]]'s "[[Face Down (The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus song)|Face Down]]", and [[Finger Eleven]]'s "[[Paralyzer]]". As songs on the chart are retired for charting out of the top 10 beyond week 52, it was initially removed for a week after logging its 52nd week for missing the top 10. However, the following week it gained enough points to return to the top 10, returning it to the chart for a 53rd week, which would mark its final tally. In 2013, it was ranked the top song of all time in the magazine's 25th anniversary list of the top 100 songs to grace the chart.<ref name="bbalt100">{{cite news|url=http://www.billboard.com/articles/list/5687158/alternative-chart-25th-anniversary-top-100-songs|title=Alternative Chart 25th Anniversary: Top 100 Songs|work=Billboard Magazine|date=9 September 2013|access-date=6 January 2016}}</ref> It became Muse's first entry on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] (and first top 40 single), peaking at number 37 on the week ending 3 October 2009 and spent 20 weeks on the Hot 100.

At times, they are also seen performing inside a miniature airstream trailer, which seems to be exploding. Through the window of a store, the band at one point looks at TVs with teddy bears (with reptilian eyes, sharp claws, and fangs) on the screens; Matt smashes the window and TVs with his guitar. At the end of the video, a group of [[teddy bear]]s, similarly looking to the teddy bears seen on the TVs, rise up from the ground and start destroying the miniature city, only to all fall down at the end of the video.
