Learning The Hard Way was the lead-off single from Major Lodge Victory, the first album released by pop-rock band, Gin Blossoms in ten years. It was promoted late summer and fall of 2006, and received heavy AAA airplay. It charted at #8 on the FMQB AAA Chart.

Gin Blossoms also performed Learning The Hard Way live on XM Radio, for which there is a video on YouTube.

Jesse Valenzuela told Songfacts that he "started ruminating" on a 5 or 6 hour drive between Phoenix and Los Angeles and "just kind of wrote down the song when I got home." [1]
