What a ride! This crazy LOVE song needs no introduction but it gets labeled as a “cheating” song quite often. I assure you it’s a love song. We wrote it in about 15 mins the next day after it happened to me, not knowing it would change our lives forever. I have a complicated relationship with this song as it made my career take off and made my personal life pretty chaotic at times during its popularity. It’s puzzling why 🧐 or maybe not haha but I was just writing about my life and never thought it would take me around the world like it has. It’s fkn crazy. I thank you all so much for connecting to this song and the whole Extreme Behavior Record. It was an absolute pleasure to revisit and resing these songs 20years later for you all. 🫵🏼🙏🏼🖤 I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did.

The song tells the story of a man answering a late-night call from an ex-lover while he’s in a new relationship. As they talk, old feelings come rushing back, creating tension, guilt, and temptation. The emotional lyrics and heartfelt vocals by Austin Winkler capture the struggle between past love and present commitment.

20 ish years ago, “By the Way” was the first song written and recorded for what ended up being Extreme Behavior. In 2004 I had written like 20 something songs for a record we were going to record w/ @howesofficial and @joey.moi in Canada But We get there and decided to scrap all the songs and start from scratch, FMLife. So, all I had Fresh was this little nugget I had written 2 nights before we left to go up there.
“In the winding down hours, I let your heart down again.”
That is kinda where the Journey began with this Album I’m so fkn proud of. The insanely talented @howesofficial ended up Co writing and Producing Extreme Behavior in 05’ and is actually on this song singing the answer backs in the verses and all the harms. I always loved the way our voices sounded together (Especially on this one) I’m writing with him for my new record next month 🤔 😎
Anyways I hope yall dig it. It’s nostalgic AF and I’m loving re-signing and re-visiting these and sharing them w/ you guys. Like I said they are your songs now. Who wants another one? 🫵🏼🖤
Special thanks to @brennin 🥁 🎸 🎹 for helping me with these tracks

Some songs don’t romanticize love they expose the mess of it. When Hinder perform Lips of an Angel live, it doesn’t feel like nostalgia it feels like a memory you weren’t supposed to revisit.
Released in July 2006 from Extreme Behavior, the track turned Hinder into overnight chart-toppers. Formed in Oklahoma City in 2001, the band led by Austin Winkler built their sound on raw, radio-ready rock that didn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths.
What made this song explode wasn’t just the melody it was the situation. A late-night phone call. A current relationship. And a past love that still has a hold.
“It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name, it sounds so sweet”
At first, it feels harmless. Familiar. But then the weight hits this isn’t closure. It’s temptation. It’s emotional cheating wrapped in nostalgia. The kind of moment where you already know the line is crossed but you don’t hang up.
Fun fact: the song hit No.3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and dominated radio for weeks, largely because listeners didn’t just hear it they recognized themselves in it.
That’s why it still hits live. Because it’s not about love it’s about the ones you never fully let go of.

“Lips of an Angel” is a power ballad by American rock band Hinder, co-written with producer-songwriter Brian Howes. It was released in April 2006 as the second single from their 2005 debut album Extreme Behavior.
The song became the band’s breakthrough hit, reaching No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and landing in the top ten across multiple U.S. genre charts. Internationally, it topped the charts in Australia and New Zealand, helping establish Hinder’s global presence. By January 2015, it had sold about 3.6 million copies in the United States, making it one of the most downloaded rock tracks of its era.
Musically, the track blends post-grunge grit with emotional storytelling, centering on a late-night phone call to a former lover — a theme of temptation and regret that resonated widely with mid-2000s rock audiences. Its radio-friendly sound and relatable lyrics helped define the post-grunge power ballad style of the time.
In 2024, the staff at Consequence included the song in their list of “50 Kick-Butt Post-Grunge Songs We Can Get Behind,” highlighting its lasting appeal and nostalgic impact
