Far Away

I wrote a post about this band like two months ago… Their new hit has been approved by ME and I think I should let ya know about it and about its musical ringtone… Yup, “Nickelback”…the Canadian rock/ post grunge band.

Well, so far so good!!! Yes, I’m talking about their latest album out: “All the Right Reasons”, which in my opinion, is fuckin’ amazing. The lyrics are very powerful and the music is unbelievable. And if u ask me, the CD has got all the right reasons for achieving what it has achieved till today…

What? Haven’t u heard what success this album brought? Wow wow wow, check it out! The CD was certified 3x Platinum by the “RIAA” in June 2006 and has sold 3,423,156 copies as of September 16, 2006. The album also received similar success in Canada and in June 2006 was certified 4x Platinum for selling over 400,000 copies. Also in Australia the album became 3x Platinum for selling over 210,000 copies and in New Zealand the album was no.1 for 2 weeks and now has sold almost 50,000 copies which means something more than 3x Platinum. The bottom line is it sold world (fuckin) wide 4,934,000 copies!!! And that’s up until now… ‘Cause wait till people fall in love with the next hit titled “Far Away.” It just got to fuckin #9 on the US billboard. And I think it’s gonna go even higher than I expect!

Nickelback

The band’s lead singer and guitarist Chad Kroeger described this song as “the only real love song”. He described many others as “being about love” but not solely about “being in love”. So this one is defiantly special… Up until now the song is a huge success in the U.S. and it became the band’s fourth Top Ten single on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was also the second Top Ten single from their latest album “All the Right Reasons” after the lead single of the album “Photograph” which peaked at No.2 on the chart.

As for the ringtone, I think as the only real love song for Nickelback, they matched it pretty good. It sounds really smooth and relaxing.. The bass lines aren’t what is important in the song so it has less performance than the other rhythms and the vocal tones… This ringtone deserves a nice amount of 8 TONY’S. Last post that I wrote about them I gave their ringtone (“Savin’ Me”) 9 Tony’s… Well to tell ya the truth, the ringtone for “Savin’ Me” was bitchin’ but as a song, I love “Far Away” more.

U disagree? Tell me about it!

Take care…

I agree a whole lot with the article devoted to the new song by Nickelback, entitled, “Far Away”. I really like the song because it has MANY powerful lyrics like the author of the article on Nickelback said. I also like “Far Away” by Nickelback because along with the lyrics being powerful, the actual music (type of instruments used) make it even more powerful. I think I like the lyrics the best however. I hear it on local radio and watch it on Music Choice, a cable station that plays songs.
