Getting older is a part of life that no one can escape, as much as we might want to sometimes, Bowling for Soup expresses it perfectly in their latest single “Getting Old Sucks (But Everybody’s Doing It).”
Bowling For Soup frontman Jaret Reddick explains how the song came into being:
I’ve had the tagline/title of this song for a really long time. I just couldn’t quite get the right vibe or mindset to write it. Oddly enough, it took Rob, the young guy in the band, sending me some music that needed lyrics and a little massaging…and here we are!
The video for Getting Old Sucks sees Jaret, Gary, Chris and Rob adjust to the challenges of getting older – in a manner of speaking – while still rocking out in time honoured, tongue-in-cheek Bowling For Soup style.
