Til I Hear It from You
"Til I Hear It from You" is a track by the Gin Blossoms which was released as the lead single from the soundtrack to the film ''Empire Records'' in August 1995. In January 1996 the track was re-released as a double-A side single with the track "Follow You Down". ''Billboard'' magazine described "Til I Hear It from You" as "the closest thing to a perfect pop song to hit radio in recent memory" lauding its "breezy and wonderfully infectious melody, the boy-needs-girl lyrics, and the earnest execution."〔Flick, Larry (5 August 1995), "Single reviews: Pop". ''Billboard''. 107 (31):73,〕
==Writing/''Empire Records'' soundtrack==
Gin Blossoms' guitarist Jesse Valenzuela would recall writing the song with Marshall Crenshaw in a hotel in Austin, Texas where the Gin Blossoms and Crenshaw were both participating in South by Southwest. According to Crenshaw "Jesse Valenzuela had started the music and asked me to help him finish it. We didn't know each other but he sought me out...The verse melody is from me - I helped him figure out how to do the ending, the fade. (Blossoms frontman ) Robin Wilson wrote the lyrics, and I didn't even meet him until after I'd already heard the record on the radio."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Songwriter Interviews: Marshall Crenshaw )〕
Mitchell Leib, co-executive producer of the ''Empire Records'' soundtrack, would recall: "() so many other alternative () soundtracks out there, we had a tough time finding (strong lead ) single. I was chasing the Gin Blossoms for a while: (group's label ) A&M was interested, but they didn't want to lend them to us." Regency Enterprises, producers of the ''Empire Records'' film, had a distribution pact with Warner Bros and the film's soundtrack was originally attached to the Warner Bros affiliate Atlantic Records: Leib - "The only way to get (Gin Blossoms ) was to move (soundtrack ) to A&M."
Gin Blossoms lead vocalist Robin Wilson would recall: "''Empire Records'' () a classic film that only a handful of people really saw, but it definitely made an impact on that generation. It was really cool to have been a part of that and to have co-written a song with Marshall Crenshaw that went to the top of the charts. It was the peak of our career, and it was at the peak of the machinery that was operating. A&M was so in tune, and so good at what they were doing that we recorded the song, made a video, and it was on the radio in like four months. It was an amazing experience putting that song together on so many levels. It was rewarding to co-write a song with one of my heroes and for it to succeed on that level and be part of a system that worked so well. It was a once in a lifetime experience, really."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=From No Chocolate Cake to a Reckoning: Conversations with Gin Blossoms, Luke Doucet, & Tony Lunn )〕
