This time around, All Time Low were back with their older label Hopeless Records, making fans presume their older style of music was going to make a return. Unfortunately, Dirty Work didn’t get the initial response that the band were hoping for, and they therefore ended up back in the studio, conjuring up a new album. Following So Wrong It’s Right were albums Nothing Personal and Dirty Work, two albums which definitely showed that the band were trying to do as best as they could in the music industry. It’s that angle that’s a big overtone of the entire record, and the reason we wanted to put this song forward first-because it speaks to the whole record and sets up the whole thing.After All Time Low’s breakthrough with So Wrong It’s Right, there was nothing but pressure on the four young men from Baltimore, Maryland to be the best pop-punk band in America. Even signing to Interscope and then parting ways a year later, both of those things felt like the same kind of leap of faith.
The reason I think this song became so pertinent when it was written was because it was happening at a time when we’d just parted ways with Interscope, and it was another leg in our adventure. The song deals with the day we decided to take a shot at signing to a major label for the first time, dropping everything, going on tour and opting out of going to college-taking that beaten path, I guess. I feel like the reason the song was written was that the longer we’re in this band, the more we realize those moments happen quite a bit-those moments of taking a leap of faith, per se, and hoping for the best. It’s essentially about going back to the day that we decided to take a real shot at this band. In an interview with Alternative Press, Alex Gaskarth stated:
