Another Hero Lost

It was written about singer Brian Fair's cousin, who died in the U.S. war in Iraq.^[1] During concerts the band dedicates the song to soldiers fighting, and ones who have died in Iraq. The song reached #40 on the Mainstream Rock Chart. On November 17, the video debuted on MTV's Headbangers Ball and MTV2.
