Meaning of the song<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n

When Simple Plan, State Champs and We The Kings decided they were going to do a tour together in the U.S. (fall 2019), they figured that it would be great if there was a song that would feature all three bands and tie them together in this way. <\/p>\n

“This is a song that\u2019s gonna be three bands going on tour together, it only makes sense that it should be about music and what it means to people. People that listen to pop-punk, it really is a huge part of who they are, and it seems to resonate on a deeper level than just enjoying the music. So I wanted to illustrate that — the show and the music being a safe place for people to hang and people to be and to find themselves. When I landed on, [sings] \u201cThis is where I belong,\u201d I felt like it really sounded like what the song should represent and what a show means to all these fans — even what it means to us.”<\/i><\/div>\n

Interesting fact<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n

Both State Champs and Simple Plan hid little references to their previous songs in ‘Where I Belong’. While Pierre sings ‘I’m sorry that I can’t be perfect’, a reference to Simple Plan’s early hit ‘Perfect’, Derek DiScanio references his band’s song ‘Secrets’ in the line ‘I’ll let you in on one of my secrets’.<\/p>\n
