New Radicals Return With First Song in 28 Years

Pitchfork · 4 hours ago

New Radicals, the American band best remembered for their 1998 hit "You Get What You Give," have released their first original song in 28 years. Frontman Gregg Alexander wrote "One Night Only (Break Loose Break Free!)" for the soundtrack of the rom-com One Night Only, starring Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner, which is released this week.

The group split in 1999, a year after the success of "You Get What You Give" and their sole album, Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too. Alexander subsequently wrote and produced hits for other artists, including Sophie Ellis-Bextor's "Murder on the Dancefloor," Adam Levine's Oscar-nominated "Lost Stars," and "Game of Love" with Santana and Michelle Branch. New Radicals have reunited sporadically in recent years, performing at President Biden's 2021 inauguration and recording their own version of "Murder on the Dancefloor" in 2024, which was dedicated to Doug Emhoff.
