In 2009, R5 officially started the band and debuted their YouTube web series, R5 TV, documenting the band's day-to-day life and career beginning. On September 5, they released their first music video, "Without You", directed by Riker. The band self-released a five-track EP entitled Ready Set Rock on March 9, 2010, consisting of songs written primarily by Riker, Rocky, Rydel, vocal coach Mauli B, and band coach E-Vega, who produced the EP.
Since then, they kept their activities until February 1, 2018, when R5 posted on their YouTube a video called The Last Show. Then on March 1, 2018, the band's social networks name changed to "The Driver Era." Announced as a new project, it was a indefinite time hiatus for R5 and the beginning of a new band, "The Driver Era", officially constituted by Ross and Rocky, in order to start again in the industry musical and avoid association with Disney and underestimation by most people. Ellington, Riker and Rydel are also present at the live concerts and some songs that were already in the plans for the R5 to launch will be/were released by The Driver Era, among them "Preacher Man" and "Can You Come Over?". When questioned about the return of R5, members say it is not in the plans, but that no one predicts the future and anything can happen in the current music industry.

Looking for the one tonight
But I can't see you
'Cause I'm blinded by all the lights, oh

Until I find my angel, diamond in the rough
Looking for a signal, baby turn it up tonight
Come on get loud loud let it out

Come on get loud loud let it out
Show me everything that you've got
Come one get loud loud I need you now
Baby let me hear it loud
Nana-na nana ah

Looking for the light to shine
To start a fire

And baby when our stars align
We can't get no higher

Come on get loud loud, let it out

I've been looking for the one tonight
The song "Loud" by R5 focuses on the journey one goes through to find that special someone. The singer, blinded by the lights, is seeking the one for him, someone who is a diamond in the rough. He talks about searching every city, never giving up until he finds his angel. The lyrics suggest that love can be elusive and sometimes difficult to find, but the search for it is worth it.
The song is also about letting go of inhibitions and expressing oneself loudly and confidently. The chorus urges the audience to "get loud" and shout it out from the rooftops, revealing everything they have to offer. The singer is asking the object of his affection to do the same and show everything they have to offer, to give him a sign that they are the one he has been looking for.
Overall, the song's message is one of hope and perseverance in the search for love. It encourages being your true self and not being afraid to shout it out loud, even if others try to shut you down.

Looking for the one tonight
Desiring to find a special someone for tonight's rendezvous
But I can't see you
It's difficult to spot you amidst all these bright lights
'Cause I'm blinded by all the lights, oh
The brightness of the surroundings is too much for my eyes to handle
And I can never get it right
I feel like I always miss out on the good things in life
I need a breakthrough
I require some sort of miracle to happen
Why are you so hard to find? oh
Why is it so challenging to locate you?
I've been searching every city, never giving up
I've been looking in every possible location and not losing hope
Until I find my angel, diamond in the rough
Until I locate the person I've been longing for, my hidden gem who is rough around the edges
Looking for a signal, baby turn it up tonight
Trying to catch your attention, hoping you'll respond tonight
Come on get loud loud let it out
Encouraging you to express yourself loudly and clearly
Shout it out from the rooftops
Suggesting that you proclaim your feelings to the world
Come one get loud 'til they shut us down
Continuing to be loud and unapologetic until you can no longer do so
Show me everything that you've got
Display your true self, reveal your personality and character
Come on get loud loud I need you now
Begging you to express yourself in order to gain their attention and affection
Baby let me hear it loud
Asking you to speak up, show yourself and be heard
Nana-na nana ah
A melodic interlude
Looking for the light to shine
Searching for a source of enlightenment
To start a fire
To ignite passion and excitement
Girl I'll be the first in line oh
I am willing to take the initiative and be at the forefront
And baby when our stars align
And when our destinies match up perfectly
We can't get no higher
There is no way we can feel more elevated and happy
You just give me sign
A signal or gesture from you will be sufficient to indicate your interest in me
Baby let me hear you loud
Urging you to speak out, be expressive and make your feelings known
Come on get loud loud, let it out
Repeat of earlier lyrics, requesting demonstrative behavior
I've been looking for the one tonight
Reiteration of the initial objective

Lyrics in spanish (Letra en español)
Loud (Ruidoso)
He estado buscando la indicada esta noche
Pero no puedo verte
Porque estoy cegado por las luces, oh
Y no puedo hacer las cosas bien
Necesito un descanso
Porque eres tan difícil de encontrar? Oh, Oh
He estado buscando en cada ciudad
Nunca me rendiré
Hasta encontrar a mi Angel
Un diamante en bruto
Buscando una señal
Nena sùbele esta noche
Vamos grita, grita, déjalo salir
Grítalo hacia afuera desde la azotea
Vamos grita hasta que nos callen
Vamos grita, grita, déjalo salir
Muèstrame todo lo que tienes
Vamos grita, grita, te necesito ahora
Nena déjame oírte gritarlo
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Estoy en busca de la luz para brillar
Para iniciar el fuego
Nena serè el primero en la fila, Oh
Y nena cuando las estrellas se alinieen
No podemos obtener mas alto
Solo dame una señal
Vamos grita, grita, déjalo salir
Grítalo hacia afuera desde la azotea
Vamos grita hasta que nos callen
Vamos grita, grita, déjalo salir
Muèstrame todo lo que tienes
Vamos grita, grita, te necesito ahora
Nena déjame oírte gritarlo
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
(Na na na, na na na-ah)
(Na na na, na na na-ah)
(He estado buscando el de esta noche)
Vamos grita, grita, déjalo salir
Grítalo hacia afuera desde la azotea
Vamos grita hasta que nos callen
Vamos grita, grita, déjalo salir
Muèstrame todo lo que tienes
Vamos grita, grita, te necesito ahora
Nena déjame oírte gritarlo
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Nena déjame oírte gritarlo
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
Nena déjame oírte gritarlo
Na na na, na na na-ah
Na na na, na na na-ah
He estado buscando el de esta noche

John 16:7 | View whole chapter | See verse in context Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. GOD is spirit being in 3 and so HE created man - who is also created in 3 (SPIRIT and SOUL 1st and BODY last). 3 parts = ONE GOD. Humans: one human = 3 parts. Pure logic and all cleared out. The BIBLE is clear and true, yet still many amongst us ask these 2 questions: IS EARTH TRULY FLAT? GOD IN 3? - WHAT THAT MEANS?
GOD created a BODY (FLESHLY BODY) to HIMSELF to come among us as one of us to: TO REDEEM US AND SET AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO LIVE.
About A - C : as we know satan is a copier - therefore he also creates a body to himself, for he cannot create as GOD can, therefore his /satan`s/ body is A.I. But what matters is: WHO LIVES INSIDE THAT BODY WE TALK ABOUT: JESUS CHRIST = THE BODY OF GOD AND A.C = THE BODY OF SATAN. Again, LOGIC.
Were is the COMFORETER? whom should come and help out? Why some of you still haven`t received HIM? - that you still ask questions that BIBLE has clearly answered.
father, son, and husband. - these = titles that we can carrie as we live out our lives on earth.
SPIRIT + SOUL + BODY = COMPLETE MAN AKA LIVING SOUL. (HUMAN = A CONSCIOUS SPIRIT). In DEATH we lose our carnal body, we do not lose soul nor spirit. We are SPIRIT BEINGS also, created before received earthly bodies. (that`s why there`s saying: LIFE IS A GIFT) - we cant give a gift to someone who dose not exist. To receive a gift, one must exist.
We were created before our bodies, in spirit? - yes: Jeremiah 1:5 | View whole chapter | See verse in context Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
James 2:26 | View whole chapter | See verse in context For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. 1 Corinthians 15:44 | View whole chapter | See verse in context It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Ecclesiastes 3:20 | View whole chapter | See verse in context All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.
2 Corinthians 12:3 | View whole chapter | See verse in context And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)
Philippians 3:21 | View whole chapter | See verse in context Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
2 Corinthians 12:2 | View whole chapter | See verse in context I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
Matthew 10:28 | View whole chapter | See verse in context And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. 1 John 4:2 | View whole chapter | See verse in context Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: Romans 8:9 | View whole chapter | See verse in context But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 1 Corinthians 2:12 | View whole chapter | See verse in context Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Romans 8:16 | View whole chapter | See verse in context The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: Ecclesiastes 12:7 | View whole chapter | See verse in context Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Why are we denying the 3 parts of GOD and humans if all 3 parts are real? All that matters is SPIRIT AND SPIRITS.
And can`t any of you read? Clearly a SPIRIT IN 3 , CREATED SPIRITS IN 3s. (GOD CREATED HUMANS).

Looking for the one tonight
But I can’t see you
‘Cause I’m blinded by all the lights, oh
And I can never get it right
I need a breakthrough
Why are you so hard to find? Oh
I’ve been searching every city
Never giving up
Did not find my angel
Diamond in the rough
Looking for a signal
Baby, turn it up tonight
Chorus:
Come on, get loud, loud
Let it out
Shout it out from the rooftops
Come on, get out loud
‘Til they shut us down
Come on, get loud, loud
Let it out
Show me everything that you’ve got
Come on, get loud
I need you now
Baby, let me hear it loud
Na na na…
Looking for the light to shine
To start a fire
Girl, I’ll be the first in line, oh
And, baby, when our stars align
And we can’t get no higher
You just give me a sign
(chorus)
I’m looking for the one tonight
I’ve been looking for the one tonight
