Still Not Getting Any… a twenty year restropective

Still Not Getting Any (2004)

Who would’ve thought that twenty years later, this album would still be on high rotation? From the CD to mp3 to fully digital… what a ride for Simple Plan’s second album, Still Not Getting Any. The album that made me a fan. And I can honestly say that it still holds up as my favourite album ever. 

Listening to the album from beginning to end is always a great joy. Every single track holds a special place in my heart. 

Welcome to My Life, the song that made me a fan; Perfect World which is my all time favourite song ever; Shut Up! which we all wanna sing loudly to the haters; Untitled… the song that gained a subtitle when it became a single. How could that happen… to me? Jump that one song that hurts my knees now. Every song on this album just gets me going.

Over the years, I’ve loved other artists, bands, albums, songs, but Still Not Getting Any has not lost its charm throughout. 

Here’s to twenty more years!!
