THE OFFSPRING was the musical guest on last night’s (Wednesday, October 9) episode of ABC‘s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” The band performed the song “Make It All Right”, which is a track off the California pop-punk veterans’ “Supercharged” album, due out October 11 via Concord Records.
“Make It All Right” hit No. 1 on both the Alternative Airplay chart (Mediabase) and the Active Rock chart (on Mediabase) as well as No. 1 on the Billboard Rock and Alternative Airplay chart. In addition, the band has released the high-energy track “Light It Up”, as well as “Come To Brazil”.
“Make It All Right” marked THE OFFSPRING‘s sixth No. 1 song on the Active Rock chart, following “I Choose” (1997),“Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)” (1998),“The Kids Aren’t Alright” (1999),“Hit That” (2003) and “Gone Away” (1997),which remained on No. 1 on the chart for five consecutive weeks and the song that QUEEN‘s own Brian May performed with them earlier this year. It also marked the first time ever THE OFFSPRING have had a No. 1 at both Alternative and Active Rock radio in the band’s history.
On the Alternative Airplay chart, “Make It All Right” marked the band’s fourth No. 1 song, following “Come Out And Play (Keep ‘Em Separated)” in 1994, “Hit That” in 2003, and recent Spotify Billions Club inductee “You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid” which hit No. 1 for 11 weeks straight in 2008. This only adding to the accolades the band has hit over the years with over 40 million records sold worldwide.
The song also hit No. 1 on Billboard‘s Rock & Alternative Airplay chart. The No. 1 followed “Days Go By” which hit No. 4 in 2012 and “Coming For You” (No. 7 in 2015) and “Let The Bad Times Roll” (No. 5 in 2021) which hit Top 10.
“You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid” off of their 2008 “Rise And Fall, Rage And Grace” album was recently added to Spotify‘s Billions Club after the song reached one billion streams on the platform. Prior to this “You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid” had already been certified platinum in the United States, United Kingdom and gold in Spain, Poland, Italy, Germany, and Denmark. Upon release, the song hit No. 1 on the Alternative Airplay chart (formerly the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart) and remained at the top spot for 11 weeks — making it the longest #1 of any of the band’s singles. The Billions Club, which first launched in 2020, lists all of the songs that have reached one Billion streams on Spotify. THE OFFSPRING‘s infamous song has now joined the list which features songs from peers and icons including AC/DC, FLEETWOOD MAC, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Whitney Houston, THE KILLERS and more.
Recently, THE OFFSPRING surprised the crowd at Open Air Gampel in Switzerland with none other than Yungblud. The alt rocker joined the band for a performance of their song “Self Esteem” off their album “Smash”. Not only did Yungblud join the band onstage for the song, but he hyped up the crowd by jumping offstage and onto the barrier all while singing along.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the six-times-platinum “Smash” album and the collaboration with Yungblud is just one of many this year already. Previously the band broke the Internet when they were joined by Ed Sheeran to perform one of his favorite songs “Million Miles Away”. Sheeran not only said he was a massive fan of the band’s but also has a tattoo inspired by their album “Conspiracy Of One”. Then at Starmus Festival, THE OFFSPRING were joined by music industry legend — QUEEN‘s own Brian May and The Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra for a performance of THE OFFSPRING‘s “Gone Away” and a cover of QUEEN‘s “Stone Cold Crazy”.
