En la tranquila ciudad de Stillwater, Oklahoma, emergió una banda que llegaría a captar la atención mundial: The All-American Rejects. Fundada en 1999 por Tyson Ritter (vocalista y bajista) y Nick Wheeler (guitarrista y tecladista), ambos eran simples adolescentes con sueños de grandeza y una pasión compartida por la música.
La química entre ellos fue instantánea. Tyson y Nick comenzaron a escribir canciones juntos y, utilizando software de grabación básico, produjeron sus primeros demos. En poco tiempo, la energía y creatividad de la dupla atrajeron la atención de otros músicos locales, completando así la primera formación de la banda.
El arduo trabajo de la banda rindió frutos cuando lanzaron su álbum debut The All-American Rejects en 2002. Este álbum, que incluye éxitos como "Swing, Swing" y "The Last Song", les permitió debutar en la industria musical con gran éxito. El sencillo "Swing, Swing" rápidamente ascendió en las listas de popularidad, llevando a la banda a una gira nacional. Esa oportunidad les brindó una exposición masiva y consolidó su presencia en la escena del pop punk y el rock alternativo.
El segundo álbum de la banda, Move Along, lanzado en 2005, marcó un punto crucial en su trayectoria. Con sencillos que se convirtieron en himnos como "Dirty Little Secret", "It Ends Tonight" y la canción que da nombre al álbum, "Move

Hello, hello
From the monkey that is weighing you down
Think I'm holding you back
Because I'm always here
I know, I know when you was empty
Like a fool with a crown
And we were under attack
And you were running scared
Do, re, mi
Far as I can see, you need me just to keep on
It's me versus the world, and I
I don't need a reason to
Look back and feel I've wasted my time
Because me and mine and she and I
Have got a pretty pink house up in the sky
Oh, versus the world, and I
And I'm doing just fine
Every little thing that I touch is magic (is magic)
Now I even got my best bad habits
Sad, it's just tragic, I know
I'll walk on the water, you're caught in the undertow
I shouldn't say, but when I bite my tongue
Teeth start chattering, face gets numb
My body gets stiff and my shit gets dumb
Put baby in the corner 'cause he's sucking his thumb
It's wrong, alright, and
Life is a party, you just didn't get invited
It's me versus the world, and I
I don't need a reason to
Look back and feel I've wasted my time
Because me and mine and she and I
Have got a pretty pink house up in the sky
Oh, versus the world, and I
And I'm doing just fine
When all I wanted was a fair shake baby, now
All I needed was the lion's share, hear me roar
'Cause it's a jungle out there
See, they got tigers and bears
My God, it's calling
She said: Run 'cause the sky is falling
Me myself and I
We're all gonna do just fine
Eating my piece of pie
Up in the sky
You ought to give it a try
So say goodbye to that Peter Pan
He's all grown up now, he's a man
Maybe one day you'll understand
He had to leave
Never-ever-never-neverland
It's me versus the world, and I
I don't need a reason to
Look back and feel I've wasted my time
Because me and mine and she and I
Have got a pretty pink house up in the sky
Oh, versus the world, and I
And I'm doing just fine
La la la la la la la la
And I'm doing just fine
La la la la la la la la
And I'm doing just fine
La la la la la la la la
And I'm doing just fine, yeah
La la la la la la la la
And I'm doing just fine
