| They wrote the song and made a video out of it, becuase universal bought out mojo records, and wanted a single out of one of the mojo bands. reel big fish, being the band they are, made sell out, to make fools out of universal. the song completely makes fun of record labels and radio stations, which is why RBF never had another single out. gotta love it | |

| It's great, it's saying just cause your on a major label doesn't make you a sellout, its when u change ur sound for money. | |
