A Hangover You Don't Deserve is the sixth album by Bowling for Soup. It was released on September 14 2004. The first single, "1985", quickly became a Top 40 staple, peaking at #5 on Billboard's Adult Top 40 chart. Ever a fan of the empty track, Bowling packed this album with a whopping 25 before yielding a live, drunk "Ohio" and a boy-band inspired recut of "Belgium".
