The O.T.W.N. Album is the fourth studio album released by American boy band O-Town, and the second to be released by the band since their reunion as a four-piece in 2011. The album was funded by fans through a Kickstarter campaign. The album was first released in 2017 as an E.P. titled Part 1 with just 5 tracks.
Regarding the song selection process for their new album, O.T.W.N, Jacob Underwood said, "The fans basically funded this record and we wanted to make them happy, first and foremost. The songs were written by us with the fans in mind. We wanted to do a party song, a message song, and 'Over,' which is a ballad reminiscent of 'All or Nothing.' We picked these songs with them in mind, thinking the fans will love them as well."
Erik-Michael Estrada noted that his favorite song on the album is "O.T.W.N," which was inspired by his family that lives on Long Island. "Unfortunately, one of my cousins passed away, and I channeled that energy into an idea, which would become the song," he said. "It's a ballad, it's heartfelt and it comes from a real place," he said.
Jacob picked "Hello World" as his favorite, while Trevor Penick listed "Off," and Dan Miller selected "Over" and "Giants." "Both of these songs almost didn't happen. I had to fight for them to push through," Miller admitted.
You don't see me any more, like some kind of ghost
I've been sleeping on the floor, I got nowhere to go
The shoulder was colder than cold, you just let me go
You just let me go, go, go
I'm a glutton for punishment though, coming back for more
So tell me how did you get so over me, so over me, so fast
Tell me how the hell you over me, so over me, like that
Say you never loved me, I'll tear up the memories
Forget that you met me, I don't know what else I could do
Tell me how the hell you over me, and I'll get over you
I'm so tangled up in you, in so many ways
That every time I try to move, I'm frozen in place
What you did was lower than low, I can't let it go
I can't let it go, go go
I'm a glutton for punishment though, coming back for more
So tell me how did you get so over me, so over me, so fast
Tell me how the hell you over me, so over me, like that
Say you never loved me, I'll tear up the memories
Forget that you met me, I don't know what else I could do
Tell me how the hell you over me, and I'll get over you
Oooooo
Just say that there was nothing there, that you take it back
Ooooooo
I really shouldn't have to ask, don't you owe me that
Ooooooo
Be honest as we fade to black, noooo
So tell me how did you get so over me, so over me, so fast
Tell me how the hell you over me, so over me, like that
Say you never loved me, I'll tear up the memories
Forget that you met me, I don't know what else I could do
Tell me how the hell you over me, and I'll get over you
