AboutMove Along is the second studio album by American rock band The All-American Rejects, released on July 12, 2005 by Interscope Records. It spawned three top 15 singles which helped the album ship 2 million units to be certified double platinum by the RIAA.
The All-American Rejects began writing new material for their second album in the fall of 2003, with the song "Dance Inside" being the first written and performed by the band during their then-current tour. After the end of their tour, the band's song writers Tyson Ritter and Nick Wheeler spent the majority of 2004 writing more new material in their homes in Destin, Florida. The album was influenced by Lit's A Place in the Sun (1999).
Production for the album in Burbank, California the following December, taking a majority of seven weeks to record. The songs recorded were then mixed in March 2005. "We were gone for a year and a half," says Ritter. "We were petrified. But now we feel like everything happened on this record, but so much more."
Move Along debuted at No. 6 on the US Billboard 200 with 90,000 first week sales. It spent 84 weeks inside the top 100 of the chart. The album was later certified 2x Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for the shipment of 2 million copies. "Dirty Little Secret" peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States as well as #4 on both the Pop 100 and Mainstream Top 40 charts respectively.
