The original video was to depict the band performing on a sinking cruise liner, but the video was scrapped after filming.

The single, which was remixed by Tom Lord-Alge, reached number 31 in Australia. "Josie" was primarily written by bassist Mark Hoppus about an idealized girlfriend, and the song includes references to the bands Unwritten Law and Dance Hall Crashers, bands the trio toured with between 19. " Josie (Everything's Gonna Be Fine)" (often shortened to " Josie") is a song by American rock band Blink-182, released on Novemas the fourth single from the group's second studio album, Dude Ranch (1997). The artist's wife, Josie DeCarlo, Josie's namesake, said in an interview quoted in a DeCarlo obituary, "We went on a Caribbean cruise, and I had a costume for the cruise, and that's the way it started." Casting about for more comic-strip work, DeCarlo created the characters of Josie and her friends at about the same time. In 1960, he and Atlas editor-in-chief Stan Lee co-created the short-lived syndicated comic strip Willie Lumpkin, about a suburban mail carrier, for the Chicago, Illinois-based Publishers Syndicate.
