"Always Be" is the second single from Jimmy Eat World's sixth studio album Chase This Light. The single began receiving radio airplay on December 3, 2007. The single was released in the U.K on March 3, 2008.
The band began filming the video on January 5, 2008. A 30-second clip was soon added to Jimmy Eat World's official website, as well as the clip being shown on MTV Two, and then on January 27, it was announced the video would premiere on MTV TRL on January 30 at 3.30pm.
