00:00:02.080 --> 00:00:20.760
The New Radical sent us a positive
message, go let Me Go. The

2
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:27.600
New Radicals was an alternative rock band
formed in nineteen ninety seven in Los Angeles.

3
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:34.280
They recorded a song entitled you Get
What You Give. It was the

4
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:42.240
first and most successful single from their
only studio album, Maybe You've Been Brainwashed

5
00:00:42.280 --> 00:00:49.880
Too nineteen ninety eight. Released on
November three, nineteen ninety eight, it

6
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:58.079
reached number thirty six on the US
Billboard Hot one hundred and number eight on

7
00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:04.640
the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.
In two thousand and six, Iced Tea

8
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:14.079
was asked on Late Night with Conan
O'Brien about what he has heard besides rap

9
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:21.359
music in the last few years that
really grabbed him, and his only reply

10
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.920
was you get what you give.
In a time interview, you too,

11
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:36.159
lead guitarist The Edge is quoted saying
you Get What You Give is the song

12
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:42.680
he is most jealous of. I
really would love to have written that.

13
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:48.359
Something about the song hit me too. When I heard it, I was

14
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:53.920
in the middle of a sad thought. It made me forget that thought.

15
00:01:55.760 --> 00:02:00.760
The song makes you want to do
something. The song plants a seed of

16
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:08.960
life. Those are the kind of
songs we need, Songs that makes us

17
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:17.120
want to go on living songs like
you Get what You Give by the New

18
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:23.520
Radicals. I'm Gael Nobles and thank
you for listening to the Cat Bear
