"(Splash) Turn, Twist" by Jimmy Eat World - Song Of The Week

This week’s song is one that I recently discovered. I have always been a fan of Jimmy Eat World but somehow I never came across this song until very recently. I was able to get a hold of Bleed American (Deluxe Edition) and I was instantly drawn to this song. The Deluxe Edition of Bleed America, which was released last year, has some rare versions of the original songs on Bleed America as well as a few previously unreleased tracks. This song embodies everything I love about Jimmy Eat World and has quickly become one of my favorites from the boys from Mesa, Arizona.

Apparently the song was included on the Wedding Crashers: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack but I don’t remember it being featured in the movie. Regardless, it was chosen for the soundtrack because its a good song, and probably should have been a single. You can be the judge of that though. You can listen to it below.

Jimmy Eat World is currently gearing up for a ten show tour, celebrating the 10th Anniversary of their second album, Clarity. They will playing the whole album in its entirety at each show. If there was one tour you wouldn’t want to miss as a Jimmy Eat World fan, this would be it. Check out their new Clarity website for more details.

Well, that’s it for this week. Check us out next Sunday for another Song of the Week.

Thanks for listening.
