Transcription

Background

The group worked with producers David Bendeth, John Feldmann, Dave Genn and Brian Howes.[3] The group wrote 45 songs over the course of three months before choosing the 11 tracks for the album.[4] Whereas Hedley and Famous Last Words were more pop punk and alternative rock influenced, this album was inspired by hip-hop music and electro beats.[5] Hoggard stated, "I don't know if the album as a whole has anything to do with me liking Dizzee Rascal or Method Man. There are some songs that might lend to the production elements of urban music, but we still wanted the album to sound as acoustic as possible."[5]

In 2010, the band signed an American record deal with Island Records.[1]

Release

"Cha-Ching" was released to radio in Canada on August 17, 2009 as the lead single from the album.[6] The song was released internationally the following day.[7] "Don't Talk to Strangers" was released as the second single from the album on October 27, 2009.[8] The album's third single "Perfect" was released on February 8, 2010 through Universal Music Canada.[9] "Hands Up" was released in August 2010 as the fourth single from the album. "Sweater Song" was released as the album's fifth single in December 2010.

The Show Must Go was released in the United States on December 7, 2010 via Island Records.[1] The album contains the bonus tracks "I Do (Wanna Love You)" and "Color Outside The Lines". "Perfect" was released as the album's first single in the US on August 10, 2010.[10]

The Show Must Go was met with positive reviews from music critics. Alexey Eremenko of AllMusic stated that the album features, "simple, straightforward guitar licks and a vocal delivery that teeters on the brink of larger-than-life emoting." He complimented the album for its catchiness, however criticized the record for its "cheesy hard rock of yesteryear."[11] Sydney of MuchMusic called the album their best effort yet. She described the album's ninth track "Sweater Song" as the standout track, as well as praising "Amazing", calling the track, "a classic Hedley ballad." However, she stated that "Young & Stupid" is a skip.[12] Max Specht of PressPlus1 remarked, "Hedley has made a great album that won’t pigeonhole them, and although the first two singles might try to write them off as a novelty, there is a lot of quality to be found here in songs like 'Sweater Song' and 'Friends'."
