Punk-pop bands don’t always age well, but the boys in Simple Plan check their adulthood at the door for Get Your Heart On!, a zippy album whose title alone (the second penis joke in the band’s discography) speaks volumes about the music itself. These songs only take themselves half-seriously, with names like “You Suck at Love” and cheeky lyrics that compare a new relationship to being “stuck like two pieces of Velcro.” But when it comes to hooks, Simple Plan are almost business-like in their ability to pack melodies into every verse, chorus, and guitar riff. The guys have been taking notes during their decade-plus career, and Get Your Heart On! manages to sound young at heart without making most of the mistakes that plague albums by younger groups. There’s a star-studded guest list to help liven things up -- over a third of the songs feature cameos, with people like Rivers Cuomo, Natasha Bedingfield, and All Time Low’s Alex Gaskarth all lending their help -- and the production is punchy and to the point, emphasizing the band’s guitars and anthemic vocals without cluttering up the picture with strings, electronics, or other studio trickery. Simple Plan may be too old to write this sort of music, which sounds as though it’s still aimed at teenagers, but that doesn’t mean they’ve lost their knack for it, and Get Your Heart On! is every bit as tuneful as the group’s debut.

Andrew Leahey - All Music Guide



Get Your Heart On! is the fourth studio album by Simple Plan, set for release on June 21, 2011. In some countries such as Australia and the Netherlands, the album was released on June 17, 2011.

Before any specific information was told about the album two demo tracks called "Famous for Nothing" and "Just Around the Corner" were leaked. When the album track listing was announced it was confirmed that neither tracks would be on the album.

Prior to the release of the album, the band started playing the song "You Suck at Love" live during the Bamboozle Roadshow Tour in June 2010 and on February 11, 2011 the band released a snippet preview of the studio version of the song on their website and youtube page, the song was therefor speculated to be the first single of the album.

On 30 March, the band launched a new official website to hold over until the "actual new website" is launched, with a new video talking about the first listen of their new song "Can't Keep My Hands Off You (feat. Rivers Cuomo)" which is available to stream on their website and to purchase on iTunes. On 20 April the band announced that "Jet Lag" will be the first single off the album and will feature Natasha Bedingfield. To promote the song, a thing called "JetLag Airlines" was set up on the website, releasing news, lyrics, tracklists and videos regarding the album. "Jet Lag" premiered on 25 April. On 6 May the band released the song "You Suck at Love" for free download for those who pre-ordered the album. The video for "Jet Lag" featuring Natasha Bedingfield was released on 4 May, and the video featuring Marie-Mai was released on 16 May.

No matter what happens, anyone who can put together melodies and evocative (not necessarily deep, just evocative) lyrics will find success if they want it.

Enter Simple Plan and their new album, “Get Your Heart On!”, which drops June 21. With a thinly veiled double entendre in the vein of Blink-182’s “Take Off Your Pants and Jacket,” it would be easy to dismiss this immediately as snotty pop-punk. But the first leak from the album features Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo, while “Summer Paradise” features permanently under-radar rapper K’Naan. There’s more here than meets the eye.

The Cuomo contribution, “I Can’t Keep My Hands Off You,” is a perfect summer pop tune: energetic, catchy, silly and memorable. It is about as guilelessly enthusiastic as pop can get. It is excellent. “Summer Paradise” is a beachy, mellow tune that’s performed predominantly on acoustic guitar. There’s a bit of reggae influence, but only in the “Suburbanites love Bob Marley, too!” sort of way. There’s some whistling, and yet again, an innocent, lovable melody.

It’s not just those two collaborations that work. Whenever Simple Plan includes other musicians, they win. Lead single “Jet Lag” is a “miss-you” song in the vein of Blink-182’s subtly titled “I Miss You,” and with Natasha Bedingfield providing background vocals, there’s pretty much no way it can lose. It does sound a bit like Boys Like Girls with arching arpeggios above the powerchords, but it’s forgivable because of the — you guessed it — great melody.

“Freaking Me Out” features Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low, and it’s a pretty good tune as well. It has more of a rock vibe than the pop songs surrounding it, but the vocals save it. Simple Plan’s production team has a way of modulating vocal “whoa-oh”s so that they nearly become synth noises (“I Can’t Keep My Hands Off You” has the same), and it works to great effect.

The rest make for a mixed bag; some are better than others, but none stand up to the collaborations.

There’s no depth to “Get Your Heart On!”, nor is there really intended to be. But as a collection of pop tunes, it’s pretty great. The songwriting is surprisingly mature for a band that still names its albums so crudely.
