Release and reception
"You Don't Care About Us" was released as the second single from Without You I'm Nothing on 28 September 1998. The single reached No. 5 on the UK Singles Chart. BBC Music called the song "a track that's propelled by an unstoppable, elastic bass line and that flips manically between wise, sighing despair and spitting adolescent rage. A song which feels like it had no choice but to be written and which is one of the rawest, most brilliant singles of the last decade."

Music video
The song's music video portrays the band being thrown one by one into a tank full of sharks while a group of children stand by and watch. The video was filmed at the London Aquarium and directed by John Hillcoat.

Live performances
The song was played throughout the Without You I'm Nothing tour and a number of shows in the early stages of the Black Market Music tour. It has not been performed live since 2001.
