Far Away by Nickelback really speaks to me, I love the lyrics because they say almost exactly what I wish I could say to the only person I've ever loved. I also really love the way the music seems to roll and the explosive drums are wonderful. Another reviewer said they came to hate this song because it was overplayed. I agree that some songs have lost their lustre when overplayed but I have not found that to be the case with Far Away. I have it on repeat in my CD player and can listen to it for hours. Everyone's different. Again, currently my favorite song.

When I first heard this song on the radio, I was like, 'Wow, that's a change of pace.' And it was, after the usual modern rock chart-toppers they marched out one-by-one, this song is a refreshing change until... Radio drags it through the mud that is their airwaves 10 times a day. It was after a little while of that that I got more of a critical eye with the song as I came up with reasons to hate the song that was so overplayed by radio jocks. So first off, while the verses are good, the chorus, especially the last couple rounds of it in the last minute or so in the song, turns away from that, and falls flat, making it a flat love song at the end.

So overall, great verses, bad chorus. Maybe not the best of songs to win your lovers hand. But in any case, it's a good shake-up from the usual Nickelback.
