On August 1, 2006, FM Static released their second album titled Critically Ashamed , which featured the single “Waste of Time”. Originally, a cover of Vanilla Ice ‘s ” Ice Ice Baby ” was to be included on this album, but it was removed later in the production process. The band did not tour in support of their second album because the Smith brothers had stopped playing for them. So FM Static became a two-piece band with studio musicians filling in for the other parts. While their second album featured only the single “Waste of Time”, the songs “Tonight” and “Moment of Truth” went on to become huge unadvertised Internet hits, as well as hits on some radio stations. The song “Tonight” had accumulated over seventy million hits on YouTube as of November 2011, while “Moment of Truth” had more than fifty million.
