What's Happening?
The New Radicals, a '90s rock band known for their hit 'You Get What You Give,' have released their first new song in 28 years. The track, titled 'One Night Only (Break Loose Break Free!),' serves as the theme song for the upcoming romantic comedy 'One Night Only.'
This release reunites songwriter Gregg Alexander with longtime collaborator Danielle Brisebois. The band, which disbanded shortly after their debut album in 1998, had a brief reunion in 2021 to perform at President Joe Biden's inauguration. The new song marks a significant return for the band, which had been inactive in terms of new music since their initial success.
Why It's Important?
The release of new music by the New Radicals is significant as it marks the return of a band that had a substantial impact on the pop-rock scene of the late 1990s. Their song 'You Get What You Give' became an anthem for many and was notably meaningful to President Biden's family. The band's return could reignite interest in their music and influence a new generation of listeners. Additionally, it highlights the enduring appeal of '90s music and its potential to resonate with contemporary audiences. This move could also inspire other bands from the era to consider similar comebacks.
