Jurassic 5 dipped into Feedback, their fourth studio album, for a third single in 2006 and came up with "Work It Out", a crossover that still raises an eyebrow: the Dave Matthews Band on board, and Dave Matthews himself singing the chorus. DJ Nu-Mark produced it, Serban Ghenea mixed it, and it later landed on the soundtrack of the basketball game NBA Live 07.
The Malloys directed a video with a political sting. A George W. Bush look-alike climbs out of a fleet of black government SUVs, Secret Service agents securing the scene, and goes jogging through town in a grey singlet and blue boxers. He grabs a bottle from a "Disaster Relief" stand and empties it over himself, a swipe at Bush's handling of Hurricane Katrina, and at a gas station he slaps a 10 over the price, a jab at soaring fuel costs.
