Originally Sex Sells was supposed to be Jon's solo album, he had all the songs recorded, Older and Real Life were among them. They even had a listening party where people were able to listen to all the songs.

When the band got back together Jon decided to scrap the solo album and do a band album. He used Real Life for a movie soundtrack and Older for the album renamed Just Older. Also Stay was used as a single B-side.
