The Urge brought in a ringer for "Jump Right In", the third track on their 1998 album Master of Styles: 311 singer Nick Hexum, who sings on it and co-wrote the words with Steve Ewing. The whole band shares the music credit, and it rolls along with an easy, sun-baked bounce that sounds exactly like its title.
It climbed to number 10 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart that summer, turned up on Daria and The Real World, and remains one of the Urge's best-known songs, a fixture of their live shows ever since.
