  • This ode to All Time Low's hometown of Baltimore, Maryland finds the band paying tribute to the city where they grew up and where their dreams came true. The quartet originally formed at high school there. "It's about being in love in your hometown, but it's about that genuine love that comes from not only being in love with a person but also with your hometown," frontman Alex Gaskarth told Billboard magazine. "It's sort of how those two things pair up. Especially when we do what we do."
