Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hand-me-down denim
Faded band tee
Cracked print
Dad’s old tapes on the carpet
All rewound with a pen
Static on the TV
Saturday kids’ cartoons
Waiting for the countdown
Blasting through my room (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
I grew up in the backseat to the radio
Shouting every line like it was all I’d ever know
Posters on the wall
Tiny plastic stereo
Living like a legend in a bedroom show
I grew up in the backseat to the radio
[Verse 2]
Walkman on the school bus
World shrank to a hiss and a hook
Passing notes about setlists
In a crumpled science book
Sneakers on an old ramp
Trying to land that flip
Every bruise
Every heartbreak
Got a louder
Brighter riff (hey!)
[Chorus]
I grew up in the backseat to the radio
Shouting every line like it was all I’d ever know
Posters on the wall
Tiny plastic stereo
Living like a legend in a bedroom show
I grew up in the backseat to the radio
[Bridge]
All the years spun like the tape
But that sound still pulls me back
To tangled cords and crooked hearts
And every chorus we attacked
[Chorus]
I grew up in the backseat to the radio
Shouting every line like it was all I’d ever know
Posters on the wall
Tiny plastic stereo
Living like a legend in a bedroom show
I grew up in the backseat to the radio (oh)
Backseat to the radio

Style
rock, Big, nostalgic arena-rock groove with male vocals. Clean electric guitars arpeggiating in the verses, widening into soaring power chords on the chorus. Punchy live drums, steady eighth-note bass, and bright synth pads tucked under the hook. First chorus mid-dynamic, second chorus opens wider with gang vocals and a high harmony. Tasteful melodic guitar fills between lines; final chorus hits with an up-a-key lift and a long, ringing outro chord.
