Go Radio---That California Song

[@ayjay579]

Fun fact: I heard this when I was 15. I’m almost 27 and have lived in Tallahassee and chilled with Craig and Heath of Kid Named Chicago at their homes. Great people. I also met Jason and the members of Go Radio back in 2011. Long story short, they refused to talk about Jason but also, never meet your heroes. If that makes any sense to the three people who will ever read this at this point.

[@shaexcx24]

❤️ didn’t think anyone else would be here in 2020 but here we are ☺️

[@xCoffers]

I’ve met Jason a few times and nothing but great experiences

[@tonysirius3215]

Same lol

[@SmoothMayDie]

Jason deserves MOST of the limelight. He wrote almost every single song, all of Tales told by dead friends, and most of A lesson in romantics. He also put that uniqueness in Mayday Parade that I really liked, and almost everyone else did. Now they just sound like..any other band.

[@Starahel]

Dude. FINALLY someone that agrees with me! Jason WAS Mayday Parade. They're definitely not the same without him. Jake tried taking over his parts but honestly, he did them no justice. I miss Jason. :(

[@hayleylucinda]

I met jason lancaster last night at a Go Radio concert in Tennessee and he is amazingly nice and talented. He should totally be credited for all of mayday parade's success.

[@brandonbiles7708]

still here 2023

[@jstewart2252]

Same!

[@Drewan27]

This shit is still a personal cult classic for me. #2019

[@euancmurphy]

It's so frustrating that they never put this on a record :(

[@iSwim100]

darkbizoas, I totally agree, like his parts are my favorite in all the songs. "but you dropped a note and we changed key..." that verse and his parts in miserable at best etc etc

[@xCoffers]

What a jam. So nostalgic

[@FakeFlourescentSkies]

Jason wrote all their songs from ALIR. Every line, every instrument, everything. He's the only reason for the success they've had, without him, Mayday Parade is just another band.

[@dudenerdsrule]

jason leaving mp has just made two bands, i will enjoy forever. go radio & mayday parade ftw!

[@jakehogan3487]

This is a great song still. Wish they would have released a single

[@adamc4576]

this takes me back :')

[@cgjhoops21]

The best go radio song by far

[@DesVenin]

I completely agree. He's an amazing vocalist, and he sings this song, and all of Go Radio's songs, beautifully. But he just sounds.. right with Mayday Parade. I hope they can patch things up one day. They've performed together since, so I suppose there's still a chance.

[@bviper188]

Jason is the 2nd Vocals is A Lesson in Romantics he left the band after the CD was recorded but before it came out he is credited in the CD's booklet as guest vocals but it was all him. Now the bassist and the drummer sing what Jason use to sing.

[@tysonguerrero01]

the ranking system 1) Go Radio 2) Old mayday parade 3) New mayday parade

[@epibass315]

@laydbck777 they guys in go radio said when it came time to re-recording this song, it came out kinda shitty and they didnt have time to do it over. so unfortunately this is why it was never really released.

[@kellyfisch]

Mayday Parade and Go Radio are gonna be on tour

[@OpenVisionGamesDevelopment]

Jason is the chuck norris of music

[@guillermo8706]

first song of go radio,, i remember listening to this on 2009 and thinking it was mayday parade

[@DNDelli]

he deserves some. it isn't like he wrote ALL. alex and jake were in kid named chicago so they probably helped with the music to jamie all over. tbh, neither jason or derek sound quite as amazing without each other. they are both amazing, but together they were just wow... but mayday is still good, if they weren't then they would not be signing to atlantic records. their new material is obviously good enough to attract a major label. but lancaster is an amazing vocalist along with his siblings

[@DarthChewyProduction]

I could relate to MP's ALIR album so much..every song was amazing and they all touched me. I wish Jason hadn't split but I understand why..I'd be pissed if I didn't get any credit either...but imagine what their next album would've been like?? Sure would've beat Anywhere But Here...........

[@rosesandharts]

jason has the best voice and lyrics

[@Drewan27]

Man they need to put this as a bonus track on the new album!

[@blahhxblah]

I understand what you're trying to say. I was looking at the booklet insert on ALIR, and it said all credits for writing and such goes to Mayday Parade, and the only acknowledgement Jason got was "back up vocals and back up guitar." I thought it was pretty obvious Jason wrote the majority of the lyrics. I mean, nothing against New Mayday, but you can tell the writing is different after ALIR and the writing for Go Radio's stuff is just flawless IMO. Jason is such a talented composer & lyricist

[@thisisdrugs]

@ilykemewzic im 1000% agreed with this for sure. best post on a go radio vid

[@amimizee]

huh, i never even noticed that, and i'm even a fan of stages and stereos! thanks for pointing that out! but actually, daniel is credited in the booklet that comes with a lesson in romantics: "Additional vocals on 'Jamie All Over' by Daniel Lancaster" it's just not very well publicized.

[@ahdorr]

basically, Jason Lancaster is amazing!!

[@blahhxblah]

I agree!

[@ZachFromRespiratory]

Jason Lancaster is a god.

[@ThatDisaster93]

I second this

[@Lorenzowuysang]

I truly agree with what you say man, Jason Lancaster's fucking mint. Mayday sounds like just another powerpop band out there in there new album.

[@Rockhead7208]

@XxShwangBangxX Daniel is in both select start and stages & stereos.

[@xKevin017x]

good song props to jason

[@edatboy]

oh jason, how mayday misses you so.

[@amimizee]

jason's voice is amazing. it belongs with mayday parade, really. i wish he would go back with them...

[@carlence17r]

@laydbck777 That's a shame it's not around anymore, it's quite a good song. If I had known about Go Radio back then I would have downloaded this song for sure. :(

[@soccerjames500]

I don't want to be misunderstood. I'm not saying that Derek isn't nice to his fans or kind to other people in his life. Here's what bothers me. Jason wrote many songs on the album A Lesson in Romantics and then Derek, perhaps along with other members of the band, went behind Jason's back and took legal credit for writing the songs. This means every time the songs get played on the radio or someone buys them on iTunes Derek is getting money for the songs written by Jason.

[@DesVenin]

How is it messed up that they name him a guest vocalist? They couldn't exactly credit him a member of the band after his departure, nor could they completely ignore what he'd done for the band. Absolutely love this song. Jason's an amazing vocalist and writer. But I don't think he deserves ALL the limelight for MP's success, since Jake and Jeremy are doing such a good job filling in.

[@goodbiggles]

yes.. i know jason made the songs and yes i do know that without him mayday parade will probably never be as succesfull but they're 2 bands now 2 diffrent bands.. and the fact that jason left is just a shame but not changeable

[@kernelxsanders]

agreed, mayday parade is nothing at all without jason, the rest of the members deserve no credit whatsoever other than performing the songs live. he wrote all the music, guitar parts, drum parts, and vocals, and he made the right decision to leave the band.

[@tacoboiii2]

Old Mayday Parade-Go Radio=New Mayday Parade

[@xMaryAlice]

@Rtp295 feel like i should say this. mayday admitted that they lost their way completley with 'Anywhere But Here' and that for the new album their trying to go back a bit to what they used to be.. we all know they'll never quite be as good as they were, but they're making an effort not to go further mainstream, so thats a good thing..

[@XxShwangBangxX]

@NArca925 Not to bring back a commnet from the dead but there is one good song on that album. Thats it. And if it had Jason's voice, it would probably be my favorite song of all time.

[@HHollyMMarie]

@sportsguy6543 hope you had the greatest time of your life at that concert :)

[@thud092]

@Dansquatre Yes he does! Not a raspy sound like his brother but a DAMN good singer!

[@avguy87]

I totally agree, his deep soulfull voice is very unique. MP has become very.....plain.

[@kyletiger22]

@laydbck777 you know the other three? this ones epic

[@cgjhoops21]

@XxShwangBangxX im guessing ur talking about "i swear this time i mean it" jason wrote that fyi

[@elliebolouse]

That's the reason why he left Mayday Parade!! He wasn't credited for ANYTHING, and he wasn't just going to let them get away with it under his nose. And why do you think does Mayday parade sound so different now, withoud Jason? And why are their lyrics drastically changed, now they don't have Jason anymore? If you listen to GR, it seems like Jason took MP's sound with him, including the lyrics. Because THAT's how it is, he DID take everything with him.

[@BeautifulWords7]

where'd you get this song?!! i've been looking for it everywhere too!! you gotta tell me where you got it

[@DanAllenFilms]

@NArca925 In my opinion, Mayday Parade is wherever Jason is...

[@FakeFlourescentSkies]

yes. he wrote all the songs. which means he arranged all the instruments.

[@dukegotpowers]

well, he married Katy from miserable at best. jamie all over was his song from a band called the last try, later called kid named chicago. his new song "Thanks For Nothing" has a feeling reminiscent to "when i get home" those are maydays three most successful songs..

[@MiracleMemorial]

why is it so hard to find them? i have tried a lot and i just cant...

[@krunkenvaghen]

Hey guys lets storm their facebook, twitter, and anything else with comments asking, begging, pleading for the to officially release it

[@Juicetabs]

he actually isnt credited with anything what so ever but he did infact write most of there material

[@squiresmusic]

he didnt take anything he didnt bring to mayday. he made the band. no question.

[@nipsnaps22]

firs i was like.. but then i was like... and now im like...

[@NArca925]

I would hope so, they're on a major label. I hope you're not trying to say the new Mayday is better then Go Radio. Because that would be fucking ridiculous.

[@jive0in]

where'd you get this song? i can't find it on itunes or anywhere?

[@m43rius]

@devzap516 ur totaly right.. i still like mayday parade but without jason it's just not the same. his passionate voice makes every song even more genius

[@TheVrael]

@ilykemewzic i feel exactly the same way

[@ilykemewzic]

Old Mayday Parade > Go Radio > New Mayday Parade ... That's all I have to say.

[@carebearbaby3]

Or considering that Jason has nothing to do with Mayday Parade now- so he's not there to take 'credit' for the songs. And how do you even know that Derek takes 'credit' for them? Have you asked him? They play them at concerts because people like the songs, people know the songs. I highly doubt Derek is taking credit for them. I think he knows that the words aren't his. So I stand by my statement that Derek is one of the sweetest guys I've ever met.

[@hextop3333]

where are you at currently?

[@brittnehx3]

then I got HIIIIIIIIIIIGHHHHHHH

[@PlayLuis]

i completely agree with what you said jason was mayday parade theyre not nearly as good without him

[@jive0in]

he's really really good. this song isnt as good as his mayday stuff tho he does try to ad lib and its not as good as it used to be. but i love this song

[@Thonking]

@IHateYouForNoReason Forever My Father is being redone also.

[@MrZacthe1]

The truth is mayday has always and will always be good live... with or without jason. But jason is the better lyricist and vocalist. But regardless they are still amazing. But not quite as amazing as before. and AliR will never get old

[@carlence17r]

Where is this song from?

[@jdman391]

Where can i get this song?

[@YUCATUBE102000]

why do you guys think that mayday parade is terrible now they're still pretty good

[@TheNenoff]

@marffgirl jason lancaster's voice is like the skeet of a god

[@kenrocks2]

do you have their songs???..can you send it to my email???please!!!...a love go radio!

[@PlayLuis]

he did for go radios first songs

[@XxShwangBangxX]

Whats jasons brothers band named?

[@LakenOlah]

this has the same feel i get when i listen to mayday parade i can relate to it just like mayday! i love jason lancaster's voice!

[@mackjonathanlendow1]

dear jason, go back to mayday. they need you, you need them. sincerely, mack. p.s. >;)

[@carlence17r]

@jukiluti I agree with what you said. Also just listen to the instrumentals (mostly in the verses); they sound wayyyy way different than they used to w/ Jason in the band. Now the instrumentals are predictable--average. Something you'd expect from an average 'alternative' band. MP sounds more like this type of average band now. They didn't whatsoever before, they were different. Now they're just average.

[@PlayLuis]

is there any way u can send me the mp3

[@Zepirothica]

Yeah.. I think he should've stayed with mayday, but this band is good too.. I think his brother should've stayed with save it for sunrise.. I've met them both and their sister.. I went to church with erin, and I went to school with daniel.. I met jason when he used to go to the crow's nest.. They cut that tree down though.. They are from bainbridge, which is where I live...

[@MRcrashaddict]

It wouldn't really bother me if this song doesn't show up in the future. I'm a HUGE GR fan, but this song doesn't really do it for me like everything else they've put out

[@o0SHiRCH0o]

Well..like other people have said, they couldn't really state him as a member of the band after he just walked out on them. What would have been a better thing to say? And this is a good song..but I am a huge mayday fan, even without Jason. They, Jason and Derek, both have great voices..but they sound the best together :/

[@TheSillyrabbit221]

@trav4mac Agreed

[@sophiesmithers]

I donn't think he should take all the credit for Mayday Parade's sucess, yeahh he wrote most the songs, and he's an amaazing vocalist but i mean, it's not just about that is it..? He's not the guitarist, or the bassist or the drummer and some people might like Mayday Parade because of that. He had a choice to leave the band and obviously he doesn't mind mayday parade taking credit for some of the song's he's written, which tbh if he's still friends with them and stuff he's probably proud of it(:

[@animegirlIRL]

@NArca925 haha, your so right

[@thislifewasledastray]

@superrtubes We can like both bands. And dislike/like comments are really annoying.

[@Sse664]

why did mayday parade get rid of jason?

[@WeTheChicks]

Just saying, Jason Lancaster cannot scream. I appreciate the passion he is putting into this song, and I love Go Radio, but this is definately not one of their winners.

[@carebearbaby3]

Saw what? How is Derek a dick? He's one of the sweetest guys I've ever met! And so is Jason. They're both amazing.

[@goodbiggles]

uh.. sirously.. "they" didn't shut him out.. as far as i know he know he wanned to leave mayday parade before they started on their new album, though he stayed till they finished.. and plus.. people seriously stop comparing mayday parade to go radio yes jason's a imense mucisian with a talent as big as i dunno what but that doesn't take away the talent of the rest of mayday parade their called a 'band' for a reason...

[@jukiluti]

@YUCATUBE102000 Its a comparison to their old stuff, which in some ways isn't fair because they aren't the same band member wise as they used to be. For me their lyrics sound more cheesy and less meaningful without jason. The duel singing effect was amazing, but jason clearly had the most talent imo. I can't stand derek by himself.

[@TiffanyMeiMei]

I really don't like many of Go Radio's songs, maybe just Goodnight Moon. I LOVE Mayday Parade. Jason should have gotten credit. ):

[@princesso09]

GUESS WHAT!!!........ :)

[@Rockhead7208]

Why the fuck are people still arguing about this fucking Mayday shit still??? It happened 5 years ago! This is fucking ridiculous. It's shit that is from 5 years ago that is now squashed. If you're hear listen to Go Radio don't go on about how old Mayday is better this is Go Radio, so let's just shut the hell up and enjoy the fact that Jason is still making great music with 3 other really talented musicians.

[@TheNewCooper]

Rob Weaver it’s been like 15 and I’m still pissed, Rob.

[@shlessbrix6594]

dude.....if Derek sings something Jason wrote for his old band can be considered as taking credit of what Jason wrote.....dude it was nobody's fault Jason left the band.....he just needs to cause his father died...if Derek is the one taking credits of what jason wrote would they still be friends??? .....they toured together in 2010.....think about it dude.....both bands taste like gummi bears dipped in nuttela sprinkled with MnM's all over it......cooled on the fridge .........

[@fa82a11]

srry i meant 75% isnt jason singing
