"She Hates Me", originally titled "She Fucking Hates Me", is a song by American rock band Puddle of Mudd. It was included on the band's major-label debut studio album, Come Clean (2001), and was released as the album's fourth and final single by Flawless Records on July 29, 2002.
The song continued the group's popularity on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 13, becoming the band's second highest entry behind "Blurry", which peaked within the chart's top five. It also topped the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart for one week in October. The popularity of "She Hates Me" made it become Puddle of Mudd's second single to sell over 500,000 copies in the United States, following "Blurry".[1] The song also reached the top ten in Australia, Austria, and Ireland while peaking at number 14 on the UK Singles Chart, making it the group's third top 20 hit. It won a 2004 ASCAP Pop Music Award.[2]
Composition
Puddle of Mudd lead guitarist Jimmy Allen had just ended a relationship and was inspired to write a song to reflect his ex-girlfriend's anger. The song ironically combines upbeat music with lyrics about the break-up. The chord progression is similar to the main chord progression in the 1983 Suicidal Tendencies song "I Saw Your Mommy", which led to accusations that Puddle of Mudd plagiarized the song.[3] It also shares chords and melodies with the song "Summer Nights" from the 1971 musical Grease, and the band has sometimes performed "She Hates Me" as a medley with that song during their concerts.[4]
In the album's insert is a photocopy of each song's original handwritten lyrics, which displays the original name of the song as "She Fucking Hates Me". The title was changed to make it more acceptable to the public, though the line is still heard in its original form in the unedited version of the song.
Music video
The music video was directed by Marc Webb.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". It features members of the band and film crew playing a group of characters who all lip sync to the song, such as a high school student, a janitor, and a fast food cook. This is interspersed with shots of the band playing the song in the street. As the song gets louder and more distorted, the characters get more aggressive and violent towards those around them.
