The Reason (song)

The Reason differs significantly from the work of Hoobastank by virtue of its pop appeal. Guys, of course, are very fond of indulging in pop rock, but for the most part on their records a daring distortion sound prevails. The Reason impudently ignores loud electric guitars, but still there are some. The whole composition is accompanied by a beautiful lyrical sound of acoustic and solo guitars, expressive vocals, which by that time had become the band's signature trump card, make the composition invulnerable to the hearts of listeners. ^[1] .

The Reason made a splash in the world of music, causing delight among music lovers in many countries.
