Bullet For My Valentine
Bullet For My Valentine was formed in 1997 by Matthew Tuck (guitar and vocals), Michael "Padge" Paget (guitar and background vocals), Nick Crandle (bass guitar) and Michael "Moose" Thomas (drums), while studying music at Bridgend College. Playing Nirvana and Metallica covers, the band released a two-track CD in 2002 produced by Greg Haver, and was called You/Play With Me. It was financed through the Pynci scheme for new Welsh musicians and the release garnered the band radio airplay on live Radio 1's broadcast at Newport's T.J.'s.
Who is Bullet For My Valentine
A little history on the band Bullet for my Valentine
Bullet for My Valentine are a Welsh metalcore band from Bridgend, formed in 1998. The band is composed of Matt Tuck (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Michael Paget (lead guitar), Jason James (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Michael Thomas (drums). They were formed under the name Jeff Killed John and started their music career by covering songs by Metallica and Nirvana. Jeff Killed John recorded six songs which were not released; two of these tracks were reworked later in their career as Bullet for My Valentine. Financial difficulties dictated the name change, which was followed by a change in music direction. In 2002, the band secured a five-album deal with Sony BMG. Their musical style has been stated to draw influence from classic heavy metal acts such as Metallica, Iron Maiden, and Slayer.
Bullet for My Valentine's debut album, The Poison, was released on 3 October 2005 in the United Kingdom and on 14 February 2006 in the United States to coincide with Valentine's Day. The album entered the Billboard 200 in the US at number 128. It was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. The band made appearances at the Download Festival and Kerrang! XXV, and undertook a US tour with Rob Zombie. Bullet for My Valentine's second studio album, Scream Aim Fire, was released on 29 January 2008 and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200.

"Tears Don't Fall" is the fourth single from Bullet for My Valentine
Their are two different versions of the music video. However only the main story is slightly different, and both show the band performing in the rain.
The first video shows a woman who finds a man (possibly her boyfriend) making out with another girl in a car. She then smears her face with paint and stabs a voodoo doll which causes the car to explode. This video can be found on the "Bullet For My Valentine Live From Brixon DVD"
The second shows a woman and a man go to a motel and then leave. The woman then gets ditched by the man as he drives off, leaving her on the side of the road. When the man goes back to the motel he checks into a room with a blond woman. The first girl shows up and starts covering the couple with gas. She then soaks herself with it. Then she pulls out a lighter and drops it in the liquid only for it to burn out, revealing the gas as water. She smiles and runs out afterward.
