New Radicals have released “One Night Only (Break Loose Break Free!)”, their first new song in 28 years, as the title track for Will Gluck’s new romantic comedy *One Night Only*. The understated release signals Gregg Alexander’s revival of the pop-rock project ahead of its first album since 1998, despite his original reluctance to make a high-profile return. It matters because the group’s sole major hit, “You Only Get What You Give”, has remained culturally influential across generations.

Alexander said the new song continues New Radicals’ blend of upbeat melodies and lyrics questioning social and corporate systems. He cited renewed interest in “You Only Get What You Give”, including recent covers and promotional uses, as part of the motivation to return. The band’s only album, *Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too*, was released in 1998 before Alexander ended the project at the height of its success.
