"Nice to Know You" throws the doors open on Morning View, Incubus's fourth album, and went out as its second single. It's a loud wake-up call: Mike Einziger's guitar lurching between crunch and spiraling runs, José Pasillas and Dirk Lance locking into a heavy, rolling groove, Chris Kilmore scratching away on the turntables and Brandon Boyd riding the whole thing with that airy, elastic voice. Scott Litt produced it with the band.

It reached number nine on both Billboard's Modern Rock and Mainstream Rock charts. Jeb Brien's video caught them live at the Bakersfield Convention Center in January 2002, on a bill with Audiovent and Hoobastank opening.
