"Save Me" is a song by American alternative rock band Remy Zero. Taken from their album The Golden Hum, it reached #27 on the United States Billboard Modern Rock Charts, and acted as the theme song for the Superman-based television series Smallville.
The song was featured as the opening song on the Smallville compilation CD: Smallville: The Talon Mix (2003). The Season 1 finale, titled "Tempest", features Remy Zero appearing at a high school dance and performing "Save Me" and "Perfect Memory (I'll Remember You)".
The music video for "Save Me", directed by Phil Harder, was filmed in Minneapolis, Minnesota and features clips of downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota State Fairgrounds and of the bridges along the Mississippi River, including the I-35W Mississippi River bridge which collapsed in August 2007. In the music video, Cinjun Tate is different from everyone else. Everyone around him walks in reverse as well as the cars. The band performs inside a giant room with background projections of unrelated images. In one case, there is a lizard. In the end, everyone who walks backwards is stopped. Tate looks around the surrounding. He later shrugs, as he is walking backwards too as everyone else is while the music video fades to black.
