"Down" is a song by the band 311. It is the first song on their third album, "311". It was their first #1 single on the "Billboard" Alternative Songs charts, and along with their self-titled album, was largely responsible for launching them into mainstream success. An accompanying video for the song was in rotation on MTV at the time of its release. Due to its massive popularity it was also included as the first song on their live album, "Live", and on their greatest hits album, "Greatest Hits '93–'03". Since its release it has also become a staple of their live concerts, and is usually dedicated "to all the old-school 311 fans." However, following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, it was placed on the &lt;a href="List%20of%20songs%20deemed%20inappropriate%20by%20Clear%20Channel%20following%20the%20September%2011%2C%202001%20attacks"&gt;list of post-9/11 inappropriate titles&lt;/a&gt; distributed by Clear Channel.
