This was the first single off the album. I tried to write a pop-rock song. I think I actually pulled it off. Listen to us talk about Ross's upright bass contributions to the band, a fight that Troy and Rick had in the van, and who played guitar on which parts. Stick around for the end to hear a re-recording of Never Go Home in which Rick plays every horn in his house (yes, finally a version of Never Go Home with horns).

Track 1 - Turn The Radio On
This week we finally start diving into the songs on My New Obsession, starting with Track 1, "Turn The Radio On." We talk about Ross's insanely complicated bass riffs, the addition of electronic beats to our songs, and Troy's driving yet unique drum beats. Stick around for the end of the episode to hear the never before released acoustic demo of this song and a live clip from Warped Tour 2005.
