Nickelback, Limp Bizkit and Creed. The bands that triumphed over hate and now have their own legacy. Early 2000's would have been incomplete without their music.
After ages of hearing hate etc about nickelback and not bothering to give em a listen I find people really exaggerate how bad they are. To be honest they're pretty good.
The world is full of critics who have nothing equivalent to show for their own lives in action or experience. At least this band puts itself out there, takes that risk and accepts that challenge day in and out. If they don't like this band they're welcome to listen to someone else and most of us won't hold it against them. If other people happen to enjoy it I'm not sure why they're so quick to rain their sour opinions on another person's good party. This isn't a question of right or wrong, after all, and life's a little short for such battles when the goal is enjoying your preferred form of music. This sort of mental activity would be much more useful in numerous other places as evidenced by the fact that the world still has a lot of real, urgent problems to be solved.
I have been a nickleback fan for as long as I can remember I don't know who could hate this band. Great messages. Awesome vocals. People be jealous man
+Ashton girl forever AGF Not really, I mean Nickleback has some good songs such as this one, but a lot of Nickelback songs are just about sex, hookers, partying, and other bullshit. I have no problem with having sex or partying, but there is so many fucking songs about that shit (outside of Nickelback too) and I'm really tired of hearing it. It's so unoriginal. But I can overlook it with Nickelback because Chad Kroeger has a good voice.
I m a adict must be detox but please heroin was better to take all these meds and crack fuck it io m more Rick now i take methadone and so.much shit and i ve ptsd so this Song i due not excpet from them perfect is true is just to get high i due not stop with non overdosed to husbands my death yes 24 and 9 month coma why you sent my back god i m a mess again after 2years damn i know was the choice i had to win i m loosing and all are dead
Ive been listening to this song since but believe me i started smoking only december 25 2017 and now ive done every drugs its truly a bitch bit really safe you from suicide soo my story is that. I only just understood this beautiful song damnnn i cried
Your mom didn't mean to hurt you. She loved you. Sorry for your loss. My son stole my account. Sorry little man mommy will get her shit together. No mother means to hurt their son because of her own mistakes
Kathy Anne I agree Kathy, His song Lullaby my girlfriend recently died from cancer and i tried killing myself but, once I listened to lullaby it made me realize dont do it, it isnt worth dying for, so i talked to someone and now i am taking meds for suicidal thoughts, Thank you NickelBack
My husband is on drugs and it is extremely difficult to watch and live through. After staying strong for so long, showing off brave smiles, I just can't pull it off anymore. I want to hope, but also want to run away. Drugs doesn't only take its toll on the addicted soul, it slowly kills family.
As an addict who has 17yrs clean w/out a piece of metal in my arm…this amazing/accurate song REALLY hits hard and home remembering. I’m sure this goes for many as well. Sadly since, I have lost over 28 friends, seen babies born addicted or with fetal alcohol syndrome. This is such a beautiful song, BUT at same time hurts the heart. I hope it brings inspiration to those who feel there’s no hope, when in fact there’s is !! Thank you so much for writing and bringing this song to light💞
I struggled with addiction most of my life. Lost more friends than I could count. Including one last week. But For the grace of God, there go I. I got sober and have a son who will never remember me using. There is hope. We do recover
Never thought I’d relate to this song... sadly I do now. Edit: i want to clarify my comment that this isnt about me. Its about my best friend who was once my best friend but is now a stranger. No need to explain further, we all know what drugs do to folks. What I meant in my comment was I never thought I could relate to losing a brother to drugs but sadly.. I do now. I miss that guy, he was a genuine soul back then. Not anymore . Stay away from drugs folks. They really change people.
same now im on probation with 3 felony fentanyl possession charges and yet even though I’ve gotten through the withdrawals once again for the 100th time al this despair makes me want to go buy some tomorrow
I like the get high cause it reminds me of my friend that was killed at a young age and that's what GOT killed I tried to help him but the song says what he went through
My son passed away 02242021 this song ge posted on his Facebook. I miss him so bad!!! He was found overdose. Crazy this song was one of the last songs he played on there!
This is my absolute favourite song with lyrics as I’m more into instrumentals anyway. “Three days no sleeping, he gave up eating”. I was there. I was there because society, the school I went to, the people I’ve met in my life, and my father especially never gave one fuck about me so I resorted to cheating millions of years of evolution with chemicals just to be happy. First it was weed, then cocaine, then lsd, then magic mushrooms, then xanax, then methamphetamine, then fentanyl, and I’m sure more chemicals out there are waiting to go inside of me but I’ve never quit drugs. I’ll never quit because the damage is already done and I’m just waiting for the day I die. If anyone from Nickelback is ever reads this comment I thank you and all the other artists I listen to for giving me immense happiness without chemicals, with just sounds that resonate in my soul. Keep up the good work. Thank you so much. You’re some of the few people who truly ever got me.
i watched my brother do heroin and crack for years...tramidol all sorts of opiates uppers an downers booze and weed....hell i even did some of that shit with him and im proud of my brother for being 6 years sober off both heroin and crack and gave my family a beautiful niece...keep your heads up you can do this to anyone struggling
Nickelback is my favorite band ,and I love dam near every one of there songs,suggestions for new fans=rockstar,this afternoon,if everyone cared,we stand together,my favorite ones :-)
So many chose to live that life because they find it easier to get high then to get right. I had my share of fights with that life addiction is nothing to joke around about and it is hard to walk away when it's a life you live for a long period of time, however if you truly want to change and you want to change for yourself ( because that's the only way the changes you want to make will actually last a lifetime) you will change. No matter what your drug if choice may be you can quit you can walk away from it you can choose to live a healthier life. Every hit you take every issue you draw back every capsule you pop or bump you snort is a cop out because you have no real reason to even want it at all, excuses are not reasons and excuses only deny yourself a chance to live another day. Our bodies were constructed to be able to heal ourselves naturally anything we consume that is poison to our mind bodies and souls can be naturally cleansed from us as long as we take the steps to start taking care of ourselves. Sleep is the number one thing that our bodies and minds need to heal next is hydration and then nutrition those three things are essential to having a healthy mind and body. Exercise whether it be walking jogging sex or a gym membership help aide the three by keeping your mind clear and focused, working finding a job or volunteering helps with regaining social skills and also helps regain trust in not just yourself but others as well. You choose your path in life you make all your own choices no one decides for you we were all given free will to make our own decision in life so when you say everything happens for a reason your right but you need to know you are the reason everything in your life happens no one but you can decided to walk away and start living life on life's terms. If you've already made the choice and your struggling right now just know life is hard it was never meant to be easy and anything worth having will never come easy so keep fucking going don't stop don't look back the past will only haunt you if you allow it to the future you want is there so keep reaching for it and you'll eventually be able to grab a hold of it. If your still knee deep in your addiction look at the glass as being half full not half empty. Just because your knee deep in that life doesn't mean you can't let go and walk out to the other side of life the side of life where you can be proud of the person you are the side where you can be with your family your loved ones that are waiting for you that want to help you even though you think they don't right now they honestly do we can't help those who won't help themselves first you have to take the first step no matter how big of a step it is you have to be the one to take it no one can do it for you. Don't let life keep passing you by it's still here waiting for you to live it no matter how long it takes you or how hard it is for you to get here it will always be here waiting for you. Please if your feeling suicidal in any way there are so many places to reach out to your worth it you have meaning and purpose here you just have to believe in yourself you have to believe that no matter what happens today or tomorrow that you are more then worth it you can an will be the person you truly want to be if you truly want to be that person. Don't let life struggles bring you down everyone falls to the bottom before they can climb to the top just remember there is nothing past the bottom rung of a ladder so the only choice you have is to go up and once you reach the top rung you will have showed yourself that you are the person you new you were and you will only succeed from there on out. Everyone please have an amazing day. We all may not look the same but we all sure do bleed the same so think twice before you hurt one another or judge one another you never know what that person has gone through or what that person is about to do. Uplift each other give thanks for what you have an pray for those who aren't so fortunate because no matter what no matter how good we all think we may have it here or there we all still need a little bit of help every now and then whether it be in the form of friendship love or trust we all need it again I hope everybody has an awesome day Thank you for reading
My husband is a recovering addict I can relate to this song on so many levels I've never been a addict but my family has alot of addicts in it my own mother is one
Can't wait to see them in concert w/ Seether and Saving Abel, Feb. 25. I love their new album although I don't really care for "This Afternoon," cause it sounds like a Kenny Chesney song. lol.
Amazing Song, listined to it bout a million times. The best nickelback solo ever. This album, the songs are so different this time, but thier all fantastic and that one is the best.
drugs dont ruin your life people ruin theyre own lifes you dont see heroin saying "hey man look your wife dont need this tv or lamp just sell it for more of me" its people thinking that man rage if you like but its people taht ruin theyre lifes not drugs...#tootrue #420in310days
Drugs ruin people because they're addictive and shouldn't be messed with anyways. And it is sad to see a once great person who used to have drive and ambition become this sad careless hopeless shell of a person.
There's no worse feeling in the world than watching someone you care about piss their life and their talent and intelligence away and you would think so too if you ever went through it because those are the kind of wounds that take awhile to heal.
+Briana Whittaker yes and no. Stop blaming addictive substances for a persons inability to control themselves. I've done drugs for years. And I will continue to use them, in moderation. Drugs don't do me. I do drugs. And when someone is killing themselves on a drug, it's time to walk away. You have ZERO obligation to stick around. Wether it's family, or friends. A person can only help so much until it's no use. The only thing you can do as a decent human being, is walk away. Do no allow them to take you down with them. See, you're already in that thought process. You hate watching loved ones give their entire lives and first born sons to these drugs? WALK AWAY. That will be the most helpful thing you can do. If thy can't see that you are that point, then they need more help than you will EVER be able to give them. At some point, being addicted to drugs is NOT a victim anymore. They have chosen their paths and you need to choose yours.
Sad but true I've seen so many friends and family members threw the years go down the path of this song and die,lose everything they had or end up in prison
siberian mustang thank you so much for commenting. It really means a lot. My dad is actually clean now. My "egg donor" on the other hand I don't speak to so who knows if she is clean or not. But I thank god everyday for my mom(my dads gf) cause she helped me get through some tough situations. An I thank god everyday for my amazing fiancé because he brings a smile to my face and wipes away my tears. He is the one who showed me this song. But through all me experiences it helped me see how much addicts struggle everyday and it has made me the person I am today.
Shanla Thompson ?Tf why would anyone search that and what does that have to do with the song? I know it's about drug addiction but that is out of hand lmao
It's about Meth. I'm currently addicted to it myself and 2 weeks ago I was up for 8 days straight and ate like 3 times. Shits no joke, especially when you start feening. That's when shit gets real.
,@@mjones6894 You're right; I still struggle with it as addiction never really goes away. Don't ever start meth; it made me stay up for days and hardly eat. I became a paranoid and anxious wreck.
Why does this band get so much hate?? There new songs (Edge Of A Revolution) Are ABOUT CHANGE> THINK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO PARIS. THESE GUYS CARE. TAKE SOME TIME TO REALLY SEE WHAT THESE SONGS MEAN. Keep up the good work lads! Ignore them haters. There just JEALOUS.
I like nickelback, but like everyone in the music industry they are with the occult.. they are a part of the machine that is consuming the earth and inching us closer and closer to the authoritarian one world government
Seriously the only good song Nickleback has made since they're debut album. I found my friend passed out from an OD in a crackhouse and this has been my anthem since.
I used to be a huge nickelback fan since I was 5 until it got old about a year ago. This song, along with Too Bad, Never Again, and Side of a Bullet are their most solid songs to date. Also dat solo doe. I like how they really went deep into songs like this and Too Bad and the build up in some of these songs. This Afternoon is my guilty pleasure since unlike Something In Your Mouth or Figured You Out, it's trying to have some humor and they're kinda making fun of themselves. And yes I agree, they're not that terrible, but not that special either. There are some bands that should get more hate that them (Theory of a Deadman, Creed, Hinder, Saving Abel, Maroon 5 (2012-), etc.).
They're basically Nickelback to the second power. Unlike them TOADM never were good. Also chad kroeger works with the band in songwriting...well, you get the ifea
+Jack Hellesoe ohh i really like theory of a deadman i think that theyre music is good but of course not as mutch as three days grace saint Asonia nickelback etc.
I have a childhood best friend, we grew up together. But as we got older both of us went our separate paths. I went to college, started a career and got somewhere in life. However she went the opposite, bouncing from home to home, smoking, snorting, shooting any type of drugs she could get her hands on. She tried everything to get those drugs. Stealing, murder, robbery. to this day shes still in that hole. I've tried desperately to help her but all my attempts have been futile. She's like a sister and I never want to lose her, but I feel like her life will be cut short if she doesn't stop. And that scares me more than anything. This song reminds me of her so I listen to it all the time.
I dont know Nickelback, but I noticed the hate against them. Cant discuss if most songs are good or bad but the lyrics and music in this song makes it a masterpiece
This is so sad. I knew too many people who died from a heroin overdose! Especially since they were only in their early 20's. Their lives were so short.. I can't judge an addict bc we don't know what their going through to be doing what they do. I encourage any addict to get help before it's too late 😞😥
Most underrated Nickelback song. They need to play this live I need to see that killer guitar solo 🔥
That solo is my favourite 30 seconds of any song ever 🤣 Does anyone know who's playing that guitar? 🤔
@@Godzilla_studios it could be Chad... because his guitar work has improved so much lately...
@@Godzilla_studios in these days it would have been his backup guitar cant remember his name why yall talking like he is gone he is not gone is he???
Nickelback, Limp Bizkit and Creed. The bands that triumphed over hate and now have their own legacy. Early 2000's would have been incomplete without their music.
I have NO idea why so many people hate on NB, they're awesome
They just want something to be mad about. I think some dumb comedian tried to make a joke and it spiraled into this.
This song contains the absolute best Nickelback guitar Solo! FACTS!
Most underrated song by nickelback
After ages of hearing hate etc about nickelback and not bothering to give em a listen I find people really exaggerate how bad they are. To be honest they're pretty good.
The world is full of critics who have nothing equivalent to show for their own lives in action or experience. At least this band puts itself out there, takes that risk and accepts that challenge day in and out. If they don't like this band they're welcome to listen to someone else and most of us won't hold it against them. If other people happen to enjoy it I'm not sure why they're so quick to rain their sour opinions on another person's good party. This isn't a question of right or wrong, after all, and life's a little short for such battles when the goal is enjoying your preferred form of music. This sort of mental activity would be much more useful in numerous other places as evidenced by the fact that the world still has a lot of real, urgent problems to be solved.

I liked all but 2 albums
Hakim Sheard I agree fantastic band
The world is so hateful for no reason. I grew up on nickleback so i absolutely love them.
I have been a nickleback fan for as long as I can remember I don't know who could hate this band. Great messages. Awesome vocals. People be jealous man

Or just on meth oh wait
I m a adict must be detox but please heroin was better to take all these meds and crack fuck it io m more Rick now i take methadone and so.much shit and i ve ptsd so this Song i due not excpet from them perfect is true is just to get high i due not stop with non overdosed to husbands my death yes 24 and 9 month coma why you sent my back god i m a mess again after 2years damn i know was the choice i had to win i m loosing and all are dead
Ive been listening to this song since but believe me i started smoking only december 25 2017 and now ive done every drugs its truly a bitch bit really safe you from suicide soo my story is that. I only just understood this beautiful song damnnn i cried
they disliked it cause songs like this have to be written
I loved this song even when I was trapped in addiction now that I’m almost 3 years clean I came back and see the meaning and love it more
Addiction ate up my family and my circle of friends.
Nothing will ever be the same but I’m glad to be alive.
My mom lost her battle with drugs. If you need help, please get it. Someone will miss you when you're gone.
TonySeptim shit man, I'm sorry to hear that... drugs are the worst
Your mom didn't mean to hurt you. She loved you. Sorry for your loss. My son stole my account. Sorry little man mommy will get her shit together. No mother means to hurt their son because of her own mistakes
I understand your pain, my best friend lost her battle to heroin and left 6 children behind.
rip I'm so sorry
doesnt feel like it, every days just filled with despair
This is one of the best songs by Nickelback
Nickelback deserves more credit, honestly. Every single one of their songs has a great message and Chad has killer vocals.
Wpp? You're so beautiful 😍😍
Songs like something in your mouth and S.E.X. definitely have solid messages
Salem Poor the god ^
Kathy Anne I agree Kathy, His song Lullaby my girlfriend recently died from cancer and i tried killing myself but, once I listened to lullaby it made me realize dont do it, it isnt worth dying for, so i talked to someone and now i am taking meds for suicidal thoughts, Thank you NickelBack
Trevor Davis This song isnt much of a lullaby, but i do see where your coming from
This reminds me of me when I was into drugs. The family I tore apart the self destructiveness. I’m glad I’m off of drugs
Zach Jansheski I’m a little late man but congrats. Drugs are a b!tch
Amen brother. Pray for me or us that are not clean.
Contrats!! I'm just back from a relapse. This song speaks volumes
My husband is on drugs and it is extremely difficult to watch and live through. After staying strong for so long, showing off brave smiles, I just can't pull it off anymore. I want to hope, but also want to run away. Drugs doesn't only take its toll on the addicted soul, it slowly kills family.
one of the hidden gems that true nickleback fans know. the guitar solo is the best of them
I dedicate this to my ex-boyfriend who, a while ago, was also my best friend. Every word of this will ring true every day of my life.
As an addict who has 17yrs clean w/out a piece of metal in my arm…this amazing/accurate song REALLY hits hard and home remembering. I’m sure this goes for many as well.
Sadly since, I have lost over 28 friends, seen babies born addicted or with fetal alcohol syndrome. This is such a beautiful song, BUT at same time hurts the heart. I hope it brings inspiration to those who feel there’s no hope, when in
fact there’s is !!
Thank you so much for writing and bringing this song to light💞
I struggled with addiction most of my life. Lost more friends than I could count. Including one last week. But For the grace of God, there go I. I got sober and have a son who will never remember me using. There is hope. We do recover
the most underrated nickelback song. two solos in four minutes. great issue in lyrics. good mixing.
Yeah they are a terrific band. And they do a great concert. Thank you. Nickelback fans are terrific also.
"A gun would do the trick, get it over with you're better off."
Fucking. Hell. Those are some hardcore lyrics...
My brother is lost in the world of drugs. I haven't heard from him in a long time. I love him so much. I miss him. Drugs stole him from me.
poot42588...I'm sorry... I know how you feel.. drugs stole my kids from me!
Bob bennet - where’s the compassion man? If it’s your brother too! Wow 😮😢
poot42588 how is your brother 3 years later after this comment?
Hope you are doing better now, you don't deserve to feel that kind of pain
I think that has happened to my bro as well, he lives in another state.😔
This song stuck with me through addiction and since getting sober! 100% one of my all time favs
I lost my best friend from drugs and I was addicted to meth and fentenal and now I'm a year clean and this song brings those memories back
If this song brings back those bad memories don't listen to it just some advice from a friend glad you're clean and sober proud of you
how am i just now finding this after getting clean.... damn... very powerful words
absolutely!
stay well and strong, man!
Eggbert08 stay strong and hold fast
Stay strong man you got this
i love this song, i think the lyrics are good. Whats the deal with ppl not liking the new cd. I love it. Every song...
Never thought I’d relate to this song... sadly I do now.
Edit: i want to clarify my comment that this isnt about me. Its about my best friend who was once my best friend but is now a stranger. No need to explain further, we all know what drugs do to folks. What I meant in my comment was I never thought I could relate to losing a brother to drugs but sadly.. I do now. I miss that guy, he was a genuine soul back then. Not anymore .

You're a baby..
I still think they should do a video to this song. It's one of my favorites!
look up just to get high by acting amish, it's a fan made video and it's really well done.
that was jack shit
I like the get high cause it reminds me of my friend that was killed at a young age and that's what GOT killed I tried to help him but the song says what he went through
let's just agree that they're a great band worth every second you spend listening to the, if you don't agree go to some songs u like and stay away
My son passed away 02242021 this song ge posted on his Facebook.
I miss him so bad!!!
He was found overdose. Crazy this song was one of the last songs he played on there!
Dark horse has no bad songs !
Probably Nickelback's best song EVAR
This is my absolute favourite song with lyrics as I’m more into instrumentals anyway. “Three days no sleeping, he gave up eating”. I was there. I was there because society, the school I went to, the people I’ve met in my life, and my father especially never gave one fuck about me so I resorted to cheating millions of years of evolution with chemicals just to be happy.

This song sounds like magic.
"His fingertips... Were melted to the bone". Now thats painful

This song makes me want to cry honestly

This is a will likely always be my favorite song about drugs.

Can't wait to see them in concert w/ Seether and Saving Abel, Feb. 25. I love their new album although I don't really care for "This Afternoon," cause it sounds like a Kenny Chesney song. lol.
Story of my fucking life. Still can’t stay sober. This song hit me so hard the day it aired. And still does.
Amazing Song, listined to it bout a million times. The best nickelback solo ever. This album, the songs are so different this time, but thier all fantastic and that one is the best.
Nickelback Rox and they definitely forever!!!!!!1 GOGOGO encore!
Drugs ruin your life. And it is really sad, even though this song is so good :(
drugs dont ruin your life people ruin theyre own lifes you dont see heroin saying "hey man look your wife dont need this tv or lamp just sell it for more of me" its people thinking that man rage if you like but its people taht ruin theyre lifes not drugs...#tootrue #420in310days
Drugs ruin people because they're addictive and shouldn't be messed with anyways. And it is sad to see a once great person who used to have drive and ambition become this sad careless hopeless shell of a person.
There's no worse feeling in the world than watching someone you care about piss their life and their talent and intelligence away and you would think so too if you ever went through it because those are the kind of wounds that take awhile to heal.
+Briana Whittaker yes and no. Stop blaming addictive substances for a persons inability to control themselves. I've done drugs for years. And I will continue to use them, in moderation.
Drugs don't do me. I do drugs.
And when someone is killing themselves on a drug, it's time to walk away. You have ZERO obligation to stick around. Wether it's family, or friends. A person can only help so much until it's no use. The only thing you can do as a decent human being, is walk away. Do no allow them to take you down with them. See, you're already in that thought process. You hate watching loved ones give their entire lives and first born sons to these drugs? WALK AWAY. That will be the most helpful thing you can do. If thy can't see that you are that point, then they need more help than you will EVER be able to give them. At some point, being addicted to drugs is NOT a victim anymore. They have chosen their paths and you need to choose yours.
indeed
I love nickelback
Jennifer Searle. Everyone does
Omg I've looked for this song for ever
To me, this song is more about addiction and when drugs go too far with someone.
Silver Side Up, Long Road, and All The Right Reasons are the best Nickelback album ever.
only nickelback song i come back to. definitely unique
easily in my top 10 nickelback songs. And great solo too!
God! I love them!
Older song now, but I think it's still one of their best:)

It’s so hard to watch the people that you love slip away because of drugs and knowing that there’s nothing that you can do about it.
Sad but true I've seen so many friends and family members threw the years go down the path of this song and die,lose everything they had or end up in prison
siberian mustang thank you so much for commenting. It really means a lot. My dad is actually clean now. My "egg donor" on the other hand I don't speak to so who knows if she is clean or not. But I thank god everyday for my mom(my dads gf) cause she helped me get through some tough situations. An I thank god everyday for my amazing fiancé because he brings a smile to my face and wipes away my tears. He is the one who showed me this song. But through all me experiences it helped me see how much addicts struggle everyday and it has made me the person I am today.
That's so good :)
8D One of the best Nickelback songs EVER !
I got this nickelback cd in the car... lets just say you can hear us miles before we get to you.
RIP Josh. You'll be forever missed.
this song deff hits home..
this song was published just a day after my birthday
Great song, Great band, Great lyrics.
in the part ,, there days not sleeping , he gave up eating ,, I began to cry .. .sorry but this is painful
If that makes you cry DONT Google sythethic heroine eats skin" DONT.
Shanla Thompson ?Tf why would anyone search that and what does that have to do with the song? I know it's about drug addiction but that is out of hand lmao
It's about Meth. I'm currently addicted to it myself and 2 weeks ago I was up for 8 days straight and ate like 3 times. Shits no joke, especially when you start feening. That's when shit gets real.
It's "THREE days no sleeping".... But yes, that part always gets me too
I use to be a meth user so i no the 3 days no sleeping not eating and stealing to suply the feeling this song hits home full of truth
Damn, this is a sad story.
One of Nickelback's more Meaningful songs.
As someone who's struggled with meth, this song speaks volumes to me.
Struggled is past sentence
Well done for you ⭐️
,@@mjones6894 You're right; I still struggle with it as addiction never really goes away. Don't ever start meth; it made me stay up for days and hardly eat. I became a paranoid and anxious wreck.
Been listening to nickelback since their first song how you remind me best band they just keep getting better n better!!!
this solo tho! \m/
It's fucking orgasmic
Why does this band get so much hate?? There new songs (Edge Of A Revolution) Are ABOUT CHANGE> THINK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED TO PARIS. THESE GUYS CARE. TAKE SOME TIME TO REALLY SEE WHAT THESE SONGS MEAN. Keep up the good work lads! Ignore them haters. There just JEALOUS.
+nicecrazydanny12/Racing Studios They're*
I like nickelback, but like everyone in the music industry they are with the occult.. they are a part of the machine that is consuming the earth and inching us closer and closer to the authoritarian one world government
Hooked on heron and fentanyl and this just hits differently.
Never heard of Nickelback till I met my first girlfriend. Now I own a Nickelback CD lol
sick song, with sick guitar solo...eefffiiin sweet
great song! sad lyrics! it shows how bad drugs really are!

Seriously the only good song Nickleback has made since they're debut album. I found my friend passed out from an OD in a crackhouse and this has been my anthem since.
I like Silver Side Up, The Long Road and All the Right Reasons.
I don't care what anyone says about this song but I have seen this song describe a lot of my family
That solo 👌👌👌
I used to be a huge nickelback fan since I was 5 until it got old about a year ago. This song, along with Too Bad, Never Again, and Side of a Bullet are their most solid songs to date. Also dat solo doe. I like how they really went deep into songs like this and Too Bad and the build up in some of these songs. This Afternoon is my guilty pleasure since unlike Something In Your Mouth or Figured You Out, it's trying to have some humor and they're kinda making fun of themselves. And yes I agree, they're not that terrible, but not that special either. There are some bands that should get more hate that them (Theory of a Deadman, Creed, Hinder, Saving Abel, Maroon 5 (2012-), etc.).
why should theory of a deadman be hated?
They're basically Nickelback to the second power. Unlike them TOADM never were good. Also chad kroeger works with the band in songwriting...well, you get the ifea
+Jack Hellesoe ohh i really like theory of a deadman i think that theyre music is good but of course not as mutch as three days grace saint Asonia nickelback etc.
+Max Mackay I like three days grace too, while I'm not a huge fan of some post grunge bands.
+Jack Hellesoe Theory of a Deadman isnt a bad band and no one deserves hate. Exceptions for people who are bad/evil like Hitler.
this is my favorite song on the album.
amazing song!!! err hey from Isle of Wight - UK!
I have a childhood best friend, we grew up together. But as we got older both of us went our separate paths. I went to college, started a career and got somewhere in life. However she went the opposite, bouncing from home to home, smoking, snorting, shooting any type of drugs she could get her hands on. She tried everything to get those drugs. Stealing, murder, robbery. to this day shes still in that hole. I've tried desperately to help her but all my attempts have been futile. She's like a sister and I never want to lose her, but I feel like her life will be cut short if she doesn't stop. And that scares me more than anything. This song reminds me of her so I listen to it all the time.
I saw them live. :D I think a year ago. They were awesome!
Absolute banger of a song.
I dont know Nickelback, but I noticed the hate against them. Cant discuss if most songs are good or bad but the lyrics and music in this song makes it a masterpiece
awesome song greetings from california
Anyone listening in 2019!?! ❤️
2020 now my dude
2021!
This is so sad. I knew too many people who died from a heroin overdose! Especially since they were only in their early 20's. Their lives were so short.. I can't judge an addict bc we don't know what their going through to be doing what they do. I encourage any addict to get help before it's too late 😞😥
I LOVE THIS FREAKING SONG!!
