"The Motivation Proclamation" comes off Good Charlotte, the American pop-punk band's self-titled 2000 debut, and it's a pep talk with a pop-punk grin: singer Joel Madden and lead guitarist Benji Madden wrote it about shaking off the routines that grind you down, and Don Gilmore produced it.
Epic's follow-up to "Little Things", it picked up some airplay in the US without ever charting; in August 2001 the label put it out as a CD single in Australia, where it stalled at 67. New Zealand took to it harder, sending it up to 28. Marc Webb directed the video, which catches the band waking up and then playing the song together.
