After meeting disBAND Guru Greig Nori, Stand By Me was advised to change their name due to copyright issues. Turn It Up was chosen. Later, in order to perform several shows in Toronto, Ontario, Universal Music Canada A&R rep Mark Spicoluk advised the band to change their name again, and the band chose the name Stereos. After receiving the thumbs up from the judges from disBand, Stereos went to a large gig to receive a contract from the President of Universal Music Canada and judged by Kiss member Gene Simmons. The band released their self-titled debut album Stereos on October 20, 2009 and was certified gold by the CRIA in January 2010 with sales of over 40,000 copies.
In March 2010, the band received two Juno Award nominations which were for Best New Artist, and Best Pop Album. They released two other singles that charted moderately, "Turn It Up" peaked at #31, and "Butterflies" at #51. The song "She Only Likes Me When She's Drunk" failed to chart.
Stereos' second album, titled "Uncontrollable" was released on December 14, 2010. The first single from the album, "Uncontrollable" was released on October 25, 2010 and peaked at #42 on the Canadian Hot 100. The second single, "Body Move" was released in February 2011, just before their cross Canada tour. In mid April the band's drummer, Aaron, sustained a broken hand, leaving him unable to perform, causing the band to cancel their remaining shows.
On March 10, 2019, Stereos announced a 10-year reunion show to take place on May 11, 2019, at Toronto's Rec Room during Canadian Music Week on their Facebook page, which ended up selling out. A second 10-year reunion show in the band's hometown of Edmonton took place on August 16, 2019 and also sold out. On October 20, 2019, the band announced they were officially back in the studio recording new material. On February 3, 2020, the band announced via their social media pages that they would be releasing a brand new single, titled "Sunset Gold" which was released on February 28, 2020.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nobody else will do
That's why I love you
That's why, why, why
Yeah I really, really want you
Nobody else will do
That's why I love you
Well babe, you know I love you so
I'd praise the world if you could know
But when I see you coming down the street
My heart skips a beat
You, I really, really need you
But then you played me for a fool
Why do you do me like you do, do, do
Well babe, you know I love you so
I'd praise the world if you could know
But when I see you coming down the street
My heart skips a beat
You, I really, really need you
But yet you played me for a fool
Why do you do me like you do
Why do you do me like you do
Why, why
"I Really Love You" by Stereos is a classic love song that explores the ups and downs of a romantic relationship. The lyrics pour out the sincere feelings of the singer towards their significant other. The first two verses describe the intense love that the singer feels for their loved one, emphasizing that nobody else will do. The singer's affection for their loved one is so strong that they cannot imagine being with someone else. This love is so real and intense that it even makes the singer question why their loved one does not reciprocate these feelings.
However, the happiness of the love story is short-lived when the singer realizes that their loved one is playing them for a fool. The third verse talks about how the loved one has betrayed the singer's trust and played with their feelings, leaving them heartbroken and confused. Despite this, the singer still needs their loved one, even after being hurt so badly. The song then ends with the repeated question of "why" - why did the loved one do what they did?
Overall, "I Really Love You" is a relatable take on the complexities of love and heartbreak. The song hits home with anyone who has experienced the joy of love and the pain of betrayal.
