This dreamy ballad is featured on the soundtrack for the fifth instalment of the Twilight film series, Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 2. Green Day bassist Mike Dirnt told Yahoo! Music that the band were fans of the previous movies' soundtracks. "When we were asked to be part of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 soundtrack, we readily agreed because the films are an insane cultural phenomenon," he said, "and we have always been impressed with the way the Twilight soundtracks are so carefully curated."
The film centers on Bella (Kristen Stewart) enjoying her new life and abilities with Edward, Renesmee, Jacob, and the rest of the Cullen Family. However, Irina, a member of the Denali Vampire coven, misidentifies Renesmee for an immortal child and believing that the Cullens have broken the cardinal rule of vampires, Irina reports the Cullens to the Volturi - the leaders of the vampire world. Green Day's ballad touches on the battle the Cullens now face to prove their innocence to the Volturi.
The video mixes footage from Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 with scenes of Green Day in the studio and on the stage.
