Now in their eighth year, The All-American Rejects [ tickets ] seem to know the demographics of their fan base. As their name implies, the pop-rockers are squarely focused on the angst of youth in mainstream America.

Fitting in well with this theme, during the last minute of "Gives You Hell"--the lead single off The All-American Rejects latest album, "When the World Comes Down," a crowd joins in to sing the chorus (kicked off by a whistle), suddenly giving the track the effect of a collegiate fight song. Perfectly suited to a live show, it's a safe bet the tune will make AAR's set lists during their current "I Wanna Rock Tour", which includes stops at several college campuses.
