"Get Set"
Song

"Get Set" is the debut single by Melbourne band Taxiride. It was released in May 1999 and peaked within the top 10 in Australia. The song was recorded in Ocean Way Studios, Los Angeles, and produced by Jack Joseph Puig.

At the ARIA Music Awards of 1999, the song was nominated for two awards; 'Breakthrough Artist – Single' and 'Best Pop Release', winning the former.[1]

The song was used in the soundtrack of the 1999 film Election. In the film, the character Tammy is in her room listening to the song. A music video was also released, based on the film; it featured several scenes from the film, along with Taxiride playing in a studio.

In 2002, this song was used for TV advertisement for Village Cinemas in Australia.
