Boys Like Girls has quietly racked up two top 40 hits, "The Great Escape" and "Hero/Heroine," and a gold-selling self-titled debut. Third single "Thunder," written by lead vocalist Martin Johnson and guitarist Paul DiGiovanni, is destined to propel the year-old disc to platinum status. With crunchy power pop chords and vivid lyrical images not typically found in youth rock ("Now I'm itching for the tall grass and longing for the breeze/I need to step outside just to see if I can breathe"), "Thunder" should leave fans giddy, while picking up new minions along the way—ensuring Boys Like Girls a summer of love. —Chris Williams
