"All The Kids Are Right" kicked off the campaign for Pack Up the Cats, Local H's third album, as its lead single in 1998, with Roy Thomas Baker producing and Island Records putting it out. The timing was rotten: Island's parent company, PolyGram, was in the middle of merging with Universal Music Group just as the single hit the airwaves.
It rose above the corporate shuffle anyway, a shot of post-grunge that became the band's second most successful single, logging 13 weeks on the US modern rock chart and 12 on the mainstream rock chart.
