Jack’s Mannequin - The Resolution [Official Music Video]
Andrew McMahon has been a huge musical influence in my life since he first appeared, mop-haired and barefoot, on the pop-punk scene in 2001. I was that Punk Rock Princess and I loved every word he wrote.
As I was trying to rebuild after having my world cave in around me, Andrew was watching his fall apart. He received a diagnosis of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on the same day he finished recording his first album away from Something Corporate, Jack’s Mannequin’s Everything in Transit.
Everything in Transit was filled with songs about broken hearts, lost loves, and finding your own self in the healing, songs that spoke so deeply to what I was experiencing at that time in my own life. Songs that I needed to hear. Something Corporate was the soundtrack of life before the collapse; Jack’s Mannequin was the songs that helped me put it all back together.
