Golden State is a 2001 album released by the British post-grunge band Bush.
The track "The People That We Love," was originally titled "Speed Kills" (which appeared on advance promo copies and early radio promos advertising the song), but was renamed following the September 11th terrorist attacks. Regarding the name change, the band posted this message on their website:
| “ | Since the song is one of love, appreciation and rising against adversity, we hope that this change will reflect our desire to be part of the soothing that art brings at these times. | ” |
Upon release, "The People That We Love" saw significant radio play as well as high circulation of its music video on MTV2.
It was released by Atlantic Records, which originally distributed Sixteen Stone. While Bush appeared on the October 22, 2001 edition of Channel One News to promote the album and give away a free copy[1], Atlantic failed to thoroughly promote it. Golden State is the band's last studio effort for the time being, and they remain on indefinite hiatus.
