"Bruises" was the lead single from Does You Inspire You, the 2008 debut album by the American indie band Chairlift, and it turned up in an iPod commercial. The band share the writing credit, with Mike Dos Santos on bass.

The album itself had a bumpy ride. It first came out on Kanine in July 2008, slipped briefly out of print, then got a second life when Columbia reissued it in April 2009 with two extra tracks and a longer "Make Your Mind Up". Critics were mostly kind to it.
