Get BornGet Born is the 2003 debut album by Melbourne rock band Jet which, as of May 2004, has sold a million copies throughout the world. Making of the album Jet entered the Sunset Sound Studios in Los Angeles with Dave Sardy to produce their debut album Get Born. Sardy had previously produced records for Marilyn Manson and the Dandy Warhols. The band left the recording studios halfway through recording the album to fly back to support the Rolling Stones on their 2003 Australian tour. The album derived its name from a line in the Bob Dylan song "Subterranean Homesick Blues" from his 1965 Bringing It All Back Home album. "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?", from this album, was voted number one in the 2003 Triple J Hottest 100. Get Born also has a song, "Timothy," dedicated to guitarist Cameron Muncey's brother, who died when he was a baby. The track "Radio Song" was written about when they were an unsigned band in Melbourne seeking attention. Chart success Get Born debuted at #3 and peaked at #1 on Australia's ARIAnet Albums Chart as of May 2004 (so far being certified 8X Platinum), #17 on the UK Albums Chart (#14 after a re-entry in June 2004), and has peaked at #26 on the USA's Billboard Albums Chart (so far being certified Platinum). The first single from the album, Are You Gonna Be My Girl?, also peaked at #20 and certified gold on the Australian ARIAnet Singles Chart, #23 on the UK Singles Chart in September 2003 (#16 after a re-release in May 2004), and #29 on the USA's Billboard Hot Singles Chart. The second single, Rollover DJ, was released in Australia and the UK, and peaked at #31 and #34 respectively. The third single released in Australia and the UK was Look What You've Done, peaking at #28 and #14 respectively. In the USA, "Cold Hard Bitch" has been released as the second single reaching number one on the Billboard modern rock and mainstream rock charts and number 55 on the Billboard Hot 100 as of May 2004.
