ReadySexGo is the third and final album from Atlanta rock band Marvelous 3. It was released on September 12, 2000. The album produced two singles, "Sugarbuzz" and "Get Over", that received moderate regional airplay. The album was the band's last, as they battled record label executives at Elektra.
The album peaked at #196 on the Billboard 200 charts two weeks after its release.
The recording sessions also yielded studio cover versions of "Always Something There To Remind Me" by Naked Eyes (a live staple of the band), "People Are Strange" by The Doors and Steely Dan's "Reelin' In The Years", which was used on the soundtrack of the Jim Carrey film Me, Myself & Irene. The band also appeared in the "Sight Unseen" episode of the television show Charmed, performing "Cold as Hell".
All songs written by Butch Walker; "Cigarette Lighter Love Song" contain an interpolation of "All the Young Dudes" (written by David Bowie).
Although mentioned in the credits, Brad Pitt, Paul Stanley, Jennifer Lopez and Jack Black did not sing gang vocals. When asked about these guest vocalists in interviews, Butch Walker admits it was a joke.
The album received three out of five stars from MacKenzie Wilson of Allmusic. She said "The guitar hooks are catchy and energetic, but the album half-heartedly swings along the typical love betrayal and rejection found on Marvelous 3's first two albums". In 2009 music critic Phil Jupp named the album third on his list of top ten favorite albums of the 2000s (decade).
