    This was the first time I ever heard Mitch Allan sing. Seems fitting that Bowling For Soup covered this one seeing as Jaret Reddick sounds like Mitch.

    It's funny, seems like all the west coaster's think this is a Bowling For Soup song, while everyone on the East coast knows it as SR-71's song.

    When the older generation looked back at 1985, now most of us look back on 1995 or even 2005.. Time flies by so fast.

    Dammit Mitch, start something! Youbare WAY too talented to not be heard and appreciated. Apologies just incase you are happy with what you got going on now but damn I have loved you since Now You See Inside, alor of late 90s and early 2000's bands have had a resurgence as of late. I am done not seeing you get a piece of the pie, and 1985 was your creation. Take the crown bro.

      Yeah, that's how it be. I'm pretty sure this is the original version, and BFS changed it up a bit to make it a bit cleaner (least that's why I think they did it; and of course, that version overshadowed this one by a ton)

      SR wrote it but couldn’t get a label to sign it, so he sold the rights to BFS. That’s why they released the album in Japan under crown records

He felt bad because they didnt make any money off of the first album he did for them, due to the publishing going to him, so he gifted them this song and others so they could make a dime.

      @@kikiki4592 no, you have it wrong. Reddick stated that allan suggested a cover of their song ad SR said Reddick asked for permission to cover it. Butch walker was the producer. It's clear as day and Allan is by far the best songwriter out of the entire group. The only reason Reddick is shown as a writer is because he did write the changes when he covered the song for BFS. SR released Here we go again and wasn't getting picked up by labels and thats when they got the idea to release it to BFS.
