Song History

This song was the last "Everyday" song to make its debut during the Summer 2001 tour.

The band has occasionally listed the song as "NPR Fool" on their printed setlists (see 7.23.01), due to the similarities between the song's saxophone line and the theme song for NPR's All Things Considered.
