It was the first and most successful single from their only studio album, maybe you've been brainwashed too (1998). You get what you give lyrics “you get what you give” became the signature song of the new radicals, released as the lead single from their only album maybe you’ve been brainwashed too. The lyrics begin with the band addressing teenagers who may be struggling to achieve their goals and feel beat down by the world The band then sends a message of encouragement to these dreamers, telling them to hold. This uplifting '90s hit became an anthem for young dreamers ready to take on the world with music on their side The title is kind of a mantra
You'll get back in life what you give to others The song also rails against big business and the forces of oppression, sounding at times like a bernie sanders rally as it rails against the health care and banking industries The new radicals' you get what you give is the sonic equal of walking down the street with a pep in your step on a sunny day. Welcome back to one hit wonderland, where we take a look at bands and artists known for only one song And we are going back to 1999, a magical year as far as i'm concerned.
