The first single, Wilt’s take on “Please, Please Be Smart,” can be found below. Wilt commented:

“We had a hard time picking what song to do. ‘Please, Please Be Smart’ really stuck with us. With its off-kilter opening riff, we just let our imaginations run wild with the arrangement. The crescendo really gave [vocalist] Chelsea [Rifkin] an opportunity to rip at the end, too.

After being on the road with Remo Drive for a month and hearing Mercy cover to cover every night, we got to know the album very well. We were already thinking about paying tribute to them with a cover as a thank-you for giving us our first US tour experience, so when they reached out it was a no-brainer.”

Remo Drive added:

“The added layers of distortion and reconstruction of the main riff sound fantastic! Vocalist Chelsea Rifkin’s voice is always killer, we love how she opens it up at the end.

We asked Wilt to be a part of the deluxe because we really enjoyed touring with them on the Mercy Tour. Stephen first heard them on Tik Tok and was hit by how well constructed the songs were. They are great songwriters and producers and perform everything with loads of personality.”
