Photo: Getty Images There’s an amusing irony to [the Hives](’ “Hate to Say I Told You So” becoming the most popular song of their career. The Swedish garage rockers somehow didn’t think it was lead-single material. “We didn’t see the potential in it,” says front man Pelle Almqvist. For their 2000 sophomore album, Veni Vidi Vicious, they were much more confident about “Die, All Right!,” a morbid and riotous foot-stomper. But when that track failed to chart or garner any attention, it served as an early lesson in single selection: Get an outside opinion. This is a common scenario for artists, who have to negotiate a delicate balance between themselves and their labels when choosing the track to represent the album cycle ahead. The Hives had to contend with the process once again on The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons, their first record in 11 years. There’s no simple formula to guide how a given act should decide on their lead single, and you can’t discount the impact of pressure applied by label brass. But the band’s approach changed forever after the “Die, All Right!” letdown: “It should be the song that people like the most,” says Almqvist, “and not the song we like the most.” In Hives-speak, that meant other people would help decide going forward. They sure as hell weren’t going to be blamed for another flop.

Only this time around, instead of cobbling together animated shorts and featurettes to make a movie-length collection, Growing Up Wild combines some of the most adorable moments from other Disneynature films — African Cats, Bears, Monkey Kingdom, and Chimpanzee — with a focus on the animals from those films when they were babies.
