The New Radicals They will reunite for the first time in over 20 years to perform “You Get What You Give” as part of the Biden-Harris directing Virtual Event “Parade Across America”.
The hit single of 1998 made a comeback in the 2020 campaign as the handpicked single by Vice President-elect Doug Imhoff – the soon-to-be second-man – appeared during the rallies.
“If there is one thing on Earth that would make us pull the band together, if only for a day, it is the hope that our song will be even the tiniest beacon of light in such a dark time,” Attack Leader Greg Alexander said in a statement.
“America knows in its heart that things will light up again with a new administration and a real plan for vaccines on the way. This is the message of the song … This world will take off.”
The hit also has a deep relationship with the Biden family: in Joe Biden’s 2017 biography, Promise me, Dad, He wrote that “You Get What You Give” became the “lead song” of the family mob for son, Beau Biden during his battle with cancer.
Biden wrote, “During breakfast, Beau would often make me listen to what I thought was his lead song, ‘You Get What You Give’ from New Radicals.” “Even though Beau didn’t stop fighting and his will in life was stronger than most people – I think he knew this day might come. The song’s lyrics are: This damn whole world could fall apart. You’ll be fine, follow your heart.”
Alexander added: “To perform the song again after such a long time is a great honor because we all have a deep respect for Beau’s military service and such high hopes for unity and normality will restore the atmosphere and perfection of our country again in this time of crisis.”
