Well, we’re just really happy this actually wasn’t the last song. “The Last Song” ( The All-American Rejects, 2002) It’s catchy, it’s empowering and it’s an anthem for the underdog, which ultimately seemed to become a recognized and praised All-American Reject trademark that made the band incredibly relevant and relatable. Even if we wanted to, we couldn’t unhear it. “Move Along” was and still is an absolute powerhouse for the All-American Rejects. Inexplicably twisted in the mix are hints of decades even longer removed, but the energy from Ritter and the rest of the group combined with a unique song is enough to get you dancing. “Fast And Slow” ( Kids In The Street, 2012)Īlthough somewhat of a hidden gem found on their latest effort Kids In The Street, “Fast And Slow” gives a nod to a ’80s, old-school vibe and showcases a different side of the Oklahoma pop-rockers. This ballad really showcases the band’s ability to make more from less. It’s almost hard to immediately recognize this track as one from the dynamically pop-driven band that recently gave us “Beekeeper’s Daughter.” In fact, a double take may be necessary to place Ritter’s vocals, which are only paired with the simple picking of an acoustic guitar and barely there background harmonies. Speaking of dirty, shout out to all the secret lovers out there! One of the more fun and carefree tracks from the band, the hit single brought further mainstream success with its pop melodies and memorable lyrics that mercilessly remain stuck in your head for days. “Dirty Little Secret” ( Move Along, 2005) It’s okay, you’re not the only one who feels dirty now. The sugary sweetness and subtle seductiveness of the lyrics rolling of Ritter’s tongue rolled music and sex into one entity (“Each touch belongs to a new sound/Say now you want to shake me too/Move down to me slip into you.”) It feels wrong but also so right.

Moreover, frontman Tyson Ritter’s powerful vocals hit hard, man. Arguably one of the most recognizable and heart-wrenching tracks in the All-American Rejects’ catalog, “It Ends Tonight” shifts away from the more power-pop singles that traditionally drove the group’s success. “My Paper Heart” ( The All-American Rejects, 2002) , giving the band yet another avenue to reach fans. With its catchy guitar riffs and underlying teenage angst, the single even made its way onto the highpoint of aughts’ culture, The O.C. The early 2000s undoubtedly catapulted the All-American Rejects into mainstream glory while still allowing them to hold onto their roots, with “Swing, Swing” serving as the catalyst for that leap. “Swing, Swing” ( The All-American Rejects, 2002)
