"I grew up with this song but had NO idea it was by the band Lit. I assumed it was Good Charlotte or The Killers. This story is incredibly well-told. It gives listeners a window into the 90s and early 00s music scene."

"Not just exploring the layers of pop-punk but also the dreamy story of Lit, who went from broke to superstars...I was listening to this thinking “Oh my god, this song and the story behind it defines who I was when I was 15.” It kind of explains things. If you liked the song or are curious about pop-punk, the birth of subcultures, or the music industry in the late 1990/early 200s, it’s for you."
