===Breakthrough and international success=== Semisonic's breakthrough came two years later in 1998 when their second album, ''[[Feeling Strangely Fine]]'', reached the Top 50 chart on the strength of the hit single "[[Closing Time (Semisonic song)|Closing Time]]", their biggest hit in the United States. During a 2008 performance at Harvard's Sanders Theatre, Wilson said that it was originally written about the birth of his first child. Their international career also blossomed when another song from the album, "[[Secret Smile (Semisonic song)|Secret Smile]]", quickly became a UK radio favorite in the summer of 1999, eventually peaking at No. 12 on the [[UK Singles Chart]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title=SEMISONIC {{!}} full Official Chart History {{!}} Official Charts Company|url=https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/5314/semisonic/|access-date=July 29, 2021|website=www.officialcharts.com}}</ref>
