One of the more forgotten boybands from the early 2000s unless you were into the Christian scene.
"Last Flight Out" was the 3rd single off their debut album "The Promise" and the first to be sent to other genres. The song and video mainly got Disney play, but some pop and AC stations went for it as well.
I got to see them when they opened for Jaci Velasquez. One of my favorite songs by them, got to #3 on my chart.

Their album, produced by David Foster, went Gold. The whole record was wonderful, spiritual pop, but Last Flight Out was definitely the standout. Fantastic production, lyrics and a crazy melody. I followed this group even as they lost a member and and completely changed their sound.
Billboard editor Chuck Taylor singled this song out as one of his favorite's for that year.

I like it, but I think I liked some of their more uptempo hits better.

I followed this group even as they lost a member and and completely changed their sound. Jason Perry & Jeremy Mhire left the group after the Christmas album. The trio went from vocal group to band with Nate Cole taking over lead vocals, and managed a couple more CCM hits. Plus One officially disbanded in 2004. And agreed, the whole "The Promise" album is exceptional. I would throw in the title track as one of my favorites as well. The video: www.youtube.com/watch?src_vid=sJRru7ri1PE |
