@braintrustee yeah !!when I first heard this my reaction was fuck!!the Stones have finally written their first classic since the mid seventies ,,then hear its by a band I've never heard of,,,,one of the classics of the 90's just so positive and uplifting the harmonies and chord structures are just brilliant.
I got a real situation here, I'm pretty damn sick with a heavy fever, but this song really make me feel better, but the problem is that i get goosebumps, wich makes we feel worse,
@Rattattattatt Leno sucks: Leterman is 1,000x's better even Craig Killbourne stoned and drunk out of his mind could outdo Leno. Andy Richter can outdo Leno. In fact , I could outdo LENO.......
I just heard his music In 2010;and I love It,he Is such A Talented guy & all around Good Performer;I hope he sings more in the future;or at least writes More Hits;I would of went Anywhere,to see him Perform!!
This an anthem for a generation, the way Tears For Fears "Rule the World' was in the eighties, Earth, Wind and Fire's 'That's the Way of the World' was in the seventies, Any of the Beatles' and Motown songs were in the 60's. This is an excellent song.
This is what is on in Egypt, libiya, all over. we need and deserve peace and equal rights for all humanity.. We all must have freedom. now.. The VEIL is lifted. equal rights for all humanity. I love .

Maybe You've Been Brainwashed all these years on is still one of the best albums I have ever heard. The fact it was The New Radicals only album only makes it that little bit more special. The man was (and still is) a song-writing genius. One day.... Perhaps one day we might get another???!! Please?
ti... my niece, Madeline, cabella dedo del pies - (star wink) has a big crush, on "our LEAD" (take two) singer. You're tops! odadadad pops, on teen popcicles. Love Yahhh, enough sun.
@HonRevPTB she had her own record deal, and her label didn't want her to be "back up" to someone else. She was performing off camera, so you can her her
I remember well when this song came out ... and how I loved it, especially for the part of the lyrics : 'If you feel your dream is dying, hold tight, you've got the music in you' .. and 'Don't give up, you've got a reason to live' ...
It really lifted me up each time I heard the song on the radio ... particularly because it had a personal meaning to me ...
Amazing song from my childhood. Makes me think of my cousins.. and their band has just been signed to a label... this song fits so well I think :) I hope me and my brother make it some day, thanks for the upload!
@mexicanchunti13 He got sick of always playing and talking about the same song and hated touring and being on the road all the time. So he packed it in and went back to producing.
You can read more about Gregg Alexander on Wikipedia.
I too wish they put out more than one album. From what I understand their songwriter, front man and producer Gregg Alexander was more interested in those things than being in a band like the New radicals.
For those that like his songwriting, here are some of the other songs he wrote that have a similar sound:
Lovin' Each Day by Ronan Keating
Life is a Roller Coaster by Ronan Keating
Game of Love by Michelle Branch and Santana
Wikipedia has a full list of the songs he has written.
great song, obviously Todd Rundgren influenced, comment from yellowman biggest since smells like teen spirit, please Nirvana completely changed the course of music for awhile, hair metal to grunge they were a little more than a one hit wonder
The guys and the band are geniouses...What i cant understand is ......Why the hell do they write songs for a half arsed Irish boyband like boyzone and ronan pugelator keating
Some of the best chord changes I've ever heard in a pop tune no doubt. New Radicals were excellent and that goes beyond this awesome tune. Their whole album is stellar. And they could've been the next saving grace for rock/pop but they make for a hell of a lost treasure anyway. Not every great act has to become the Beatles or something. Some are allowed to be brief or go down below the radar.
This bands popularity was one song....this one....but it's the truth in what they're singing about that gives them their validity. This song is great because it is genuine. I love it!
