You Get What You Give

Maybe not, but Gregg Alexander as a songwriter deserves it. Get him in as a non-performer.

Another Biden accomplishment! Getting these guys to reunite after 22 years!

Now, if only he can get The Heads to reunite...

Bono (yes, that Bono, of U2) had something interesting to say about this, from Time Magazine:

If you could attach your name to any song written over the past few years, which would it be?

"Interesting. There's quite a few songs I've been jealous of. Certainly Wonderwall by Oasis. Oh. Easy. The New Radicals' You Get What You Give. That's a great tune. I really would love to have written that. Great spirit, great energy."

The New Radicals have gotten back together and have an album slated to release next year. Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too is a cult classic and a critically acclaimed album, and You Get What You Give is one of the few songs I know that nobody hates. When he disbanded the group in 1999, Gregg Alexander turned to songwriting, and his work has surprising longevity. The Game of Love and Murder on the Dancefloor are still pretty popular songs, and on top of that, the band has respect from U2, Rod Stewart, Hall & Oates, and Joni Mitchell. I think the New Radicals, Gregg and Danielle Brisebois, could get inducted via musical excellence. I'm for it.
