Review - Music


Artist : Nickelback
Song : Far Away
Album : All the Right Reasons


Nice video!!! It reminds us some of the documentaries movies during September 11 bombing at WTC, where all these firemen became the subject of attention. or almost similar as the movie 'Ladder 49'. But somehow the video 'clicks' the song so well. For me the video has already played a very good role in arousing audiences' sense of melancholy. But overall, the song is good plus the very romantic lyrics: "Stop breathing if I don't see you anymore". But if it's compared with the other Nickelback's songs, such as 'How You Remind Me', somehow 'Far Away' sounds too melancholy for Nickelback's listeners. Or you can try to listen to some of Nickelback's songs from OST, such as: 'Hero' (OST Spiderman) or 'Learn the Hard Way' (OST Daredevil), so after that you'll find out what's actually missing from the song, but it still has the 'touch' of Nickelback with the great unique voice of Chad Kroeger. Well, you can just tell that it's Nickelback once you hear it in the radio from the voice.

As the first single, 'Far Away' might be the perfect starter for the public. Now, Nickelback has released the video for their second single, 'Savin Me' and we can't just wait to see it. Me, myself, really loves this Canadian band because of the great songs they have and not forgetting the charm of the vocalists :o) Two thumbs up!!! I hope you enjoy the song too and sing along, my fellaz!



Lyrics:
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
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
‘Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
‘Cause I’m not leaving
Hold on to me and
never let me go
