“We Almost Lost Detroit” is a cover-version of a classic Gil Scott Heron song and a love letter to the bands hometown Detroit. Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. about their song:
“We wanted this video to be about people DOING things in and around the city of Detroit. People who are on the job. People who have moved past “what happened?” and are spending more time saying “lets MAKE things happen”. These are the people who we feel represent the city of Detroit,” the band said in a statement. “As Detroiters, we are born and bred with a civic pride that we are continually told is somewhat uncommon. We wanted the city, and the people in the city, to be the video for this simple reason. It is an exciting time to be from Detroit — as we believe it’s a city that is in the midst of reinventing itself in a huge way.”
