Nickelback
is a Canadian rock band formed in 1995 in Hanna,
Alberta. It is composed of guitarist and lead vocalist Chad Kroeger, guitarist,
keyboardist and backing vocalist Ryan Peake,
bassist Mike Kroeger, and drummer Daniel Adair.
It went through several drummer changes between 1995 and 2005, achieving its
current lineup when Adair replaced Ryan Vikedal.
Nickelback
is one of the most commercially successful Canadian rock bands, having sold
more than 50 million albums worldwide. In 2009, Billboard ranked it the most successful
rock group of that decade; "How You Remind
Me" was the best-selling rock song and the fourth-best overall.
The band ranked at Nº 7 on the Billboard top artist of the decade list, with
four albums among the publication's top albums of the decade.
The
band signed with Roadrunner Records in 1999 and re-released its
once-independent álbum The State. This album was commercially
successful, as was its follow-up, Silver Side
Up, in 2001. The band then released its biggest hit, "How You
Remind Me", a Nº 1 on the Billboard and Canadian Singles Charts. The fourth album,
The Long Road,
was released in 2003 and spawned five singles, including Canadian Nº 1 "Someday", which also reached Nº 7 on
the Billboard Hot 100.
In
2005, the band's best-selling album to date, All the Right Reasons, produced three top-ten
and five top-twenty singles on the Billboard Hot 100, including "Photograph", "Far Away", and "Rockstar". Dark Horse sold well in 2008, producing
eight singles, one cracking the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 and two in the
top twenty. In 2011, the seventh album, Here and Now, topped the
charts. The eighth, No Fixed Address, was released in 2014, followed
by Feed the Machine in 2017.
Nickelback
is based in Vancouver,
British Columbia. It originally published through EMI Canada before signing
a global distribution deal with Roadrunner Records. For Here and Now, it left
EMI Canada for Universal Music Canada.
"Far
Away" is a single by Canadian band Nickelback.
Released in late 2005 or early 2006 in the United States and February 13, 2006
in the United Kingdom. It was released as the fourth U.S. single of All the Right Reasons, but the second in
Europe. "Far Away" peaked at number eight in the United States,
making All the Right Reasons the only Nickelback album to date to have more
than one top ten hit. The band's lead singer and guitarist Chad Kroeger
described this song on the Tour when in Australia as the "only real love
song" that Nickelback has. He described many others as "being about
love" but not solely about "being in love".
The
song was re-released in the United Kingdom on September 22, 2008 following the
success of "Rockstar" and the re-release of
"Photograph". This release also
reached number 40 in the UK singles chart, equalling its original chart peak,
although this re-release was download-only.
This time, this place
Misused, mistakes
Too long, too late
Who was I to make you
wait?
Just one chance, just
one breath
Just in case there's
just one left
'Cause you know, you
know, you know
That I love you
I have loved you all
along
And I miss you
Been far away, for
far too long
I keep dreaming
you'll be with me
And you'll never go
Stop breathing if I
don't see you anymore
On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one
last dance
'Cause with you; I'd
withstand
All of hell to hold
your hand
I'd give it all; I'd
give for us
Give anything, but I
won't give up
'Cause you know, you
know, you know
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away, for
far too long
I keep dreaming
you'll be with me
And you'll never go
Stop breathing if I
don't see you anymore
So far away, so far
away
Been far away, for
far too long
So far away, so far
away
Been far away, for
far too long
But you know, you
know, you know
I wanted, I'd wanted
you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you
say
That I love you (That
I love you)
I have loved you all
along
And I forgive you
(And I forgive you)
For being away, for
far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not
leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and
never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not
leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and
never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and
never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and
never let me go.
