History Trivia / SimplePlan

CreatorsFavorite: In a [[https://www.tiktok.com/@simpleplan/video/7351815616711396613 "This or That" Tiktok]], it was noted that Pierre's favorite Simple Plan song is "Lucky One" from ''Get Your Heart On - The Second Coming''.

** "Summer Paradise", an upbeat reggae-influenced pop-rock track, ended being a top 10 hit in Canada and later ended up being 3x Platinum there.

* CreatorBacklash: Pierre has admitted on a few occasions that he's not a fan of his singing style on ''No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls'', as the album's producer (Arnold Lanni) wanted him to sound more "whiny". This ultimately made the album hard for Pierre to listen to following its release.

* RefittedForSequel: Every song featured on ''Get Your Heart On - The Second Coming!'' was originally written for ''Get Your Heart On!'' but ultimately wound up being cut from the album.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: "If I Die Tomorrow" by Mötley Crüe was originally written by Simple Plan for inclusion on ''Still Not Getting Any...'' but was left off the album as they didn't think it fit with the rest of the album.
