"When We Die" is anticipated to be the second single from The Great Burrito Extortion Case, by Bowling for Soup. The release date is unknown, but is the most likely candidate for the second single, since the promotional sticker found on the album has the phrase "...features the hit singles...When We Die". The song is unusual for the band because it is a serious song, unlike any of their previous songs, which are all comedy-based.
The band recently finished their video for the single.
In the video you can see the soloist's (Jaret Reddick) relationship with his father (played by Lee Majors) since he was a young boy, until this time. At the beginning of the video you can see Jaret sleeping with his pregnant girlfriend in his bed, while waking he's seeing that today is his father's birthday, and after a few hesitations he makes a phone call. In the phone call his mother answers, and his father refuses to talk with him. After a few scenes you can see some scenes from their past. The young elementary-schooler Jaret, and the high-schooler Jaret. In the first scene you can see Jaret asking his father, while his father is fixing the car, to come and play basketball with him. but his father refuses and tells him to play by himself. Jaret accidentally hits his father with the basketball while playing and his father immediately shouts at him to leave. In the second scene, you can see Jaret's father sitting on the front porch inviting his son to come and drink cold lemonade with him. Jaret was about to accept the invitation but is interrupted by his band's van pulling over and inviting him in. Jaret leaves his father and enters the band's van. In the ending of the video clip, you can see that Jaret went with his band back home to make a performance. His parents come to visit him and his girlfriend that just had the baby. Jaret and his father first give each other a long stare until Jaret's father sees his new grandchild and is proud of his son. Jaret and his father then give each other a hug.
