Background and composition


The group originally released the song on MySpace in 2006 and topped the MySpace Music's Unsigned Bands chart. Not only did it garner the attention of fans, but of drummer Anthony Improgo, who joined the band.[4] According to frontman Trace Cyrus, the song is very "meaningful" to the band and it was the first song they made.[5]

Trace Cyrus told Kerrang! magazine that this song is "about wanting to be in a relationship with a girl who’s underage so bad and how age limitations don’t let you do that."[6] The track runs at 140 BPM and is in the key of C minor.[7]


Music video


On December 5, 2008 the music video was released on MTV and has premiered in Canada through the Muchmusic and the MuchAxs video streaming website. The video is shot at night with the band performing at a carnival in Santa Clarita, California.[5] The video was directed Josh Forbes and includes cameos from Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Mitchel Musso.[8][9][10]
