"Remember Me" was the third single from Hoobastank's self-titled debut, the 2001 album the band made for Island, and it went to radio in 2002. Singer Doug Robb, credited with the music, aimed it at a phony high school friend: the kind of person who wouldn't give you the time of day back then but would happily be seen with you once you'd made it.

There are 2 cuts of it, the album take with its long intro and a video edit that gets to the point with a short burst of guitar. That video, directed by Vem & Tony, plants the band in front of rows of students working at desks in the middle of a football field, with faces flashing by in yearbook pages. It peaked at 23 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks.
