New Radicals - Someday We ll Know single cover | |||||||||||||||
"Someday We'll Know" is a song by the New Radicals. Released on July 23, 1999, it was the second single off their album Maybe You've Been Brainwashed Too and the follow-up to the smash "You Get What You Give". It is a midtempo ballad about lost love and regret, in which the singer asks a series of rhetorical questions and compares them to the end of his relationship, suggesting that love and breaking up proposes questions that will never be answered. Lyrics such as "I'm speeding by the place that I met you for the 97th time tonight" have led some to interpret the song as the account of an obsessive stalker.
The song was also covered by Mandy Moore and Jonathan Foreman on the A Walk to Remember soundtrack, by Hall & Oates on their 2003 album Do It For Love and live by Ronan Keating during his 2002 tour, Destination Everywhere. The Hall & Oates version included a guest appearance by Todd Rundgren on guitar and vocals. The B-side was "The Decency League", a cynical and bitter song about suppression and censorship of sex by Christian "decency leagues". Alexander sings, "The decency league, Dedicated to stopping all sexual behaviour/I'm merely trying to deprive all those of the reasonable use of their sexual organs". The track acts as a stark contrast to the A-side. | |||||||||||||||
