The Harvey Danger jam from 1997’s Where Have All the Merrymakers Gone? is just fun on so many levels; it’s become a staple that everyone knows, whether it be through the era of radio, piling CD’s into an awkward binder for travel adventures, or hearing it on countless soundtracks.
Now, The All-American Rejects have put a new spin on the song, the first big launch for SPIN Records, a partnership with Virgin Records and Greater Than Distribution. Crank it up below!
