Land   Canada

Canadese rockband die begin deze eeuw in 2001 voor het eerst opduikt in de Top 40 met de hit How You Remind Me wat meteen een top 10-hit wordt. De band met als zanger Chad Kroeger scoort grote hits met singles als Rockstar, Photograph en Far Away en is vandaag de dag nog steeds actief als band.

Nickelback is een van de meest succesvolle Canadese bands, met meer dan 50 miljoen verkochte albums wereldwijd. Het is na The Beatles de best verkopende buitenlandse act in de Verenigde Staten in de jaren 2000. Volgens het tijdschrift Billboard is Nickelback de beste rockband van het afgelopen decennium. De band staat echter ook bekend als de meest gehate band ter wereld,[ en in 2013 verkozen lezers van het muziekblad Rolling Stone de band tot de op een na slechtste band uit de jaren 90.



Songtekst

Oh, looking like another Bob Marley day
Hitting from the bong like a diesel train
And now we're hanging out this afternoon

We got weeds in the backyard, four feet tall
Cheech and Chong probably would have smoked them all
So, I'm on the couch this afternoon

Beer bottles laying on the kitchen floor
If we take them out back, we can buy some more
So I doubt we're going out this afternoon, oh

Better hang on if you're tagging along
'Cause we'll be doing this till six in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on, doesn't matter when you gotta

Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down, we'll do it all again
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

Landlord says I should buy a tent
But he can kiss my ass 'cause I paid the rent
So I doubt, he'll kick me out this afternoon

Down on the corner in a seedy bar
Jukebox cranking out the CCR
Had to view to Suzie Q this afternoon, oh

Better hang on if you're tagging along
'Cause we'll be doing this till six in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on, doesn't matter when you gotta

Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down, we'll do it all again
Get up, go out, me and all my friends
Drink up, fall down, we'll do it all again, yeah
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

Wear a wristwatch and alarm clock to see what time it ends
From the moment I wake up, I just love being with my friends
We barely get by, but have the best times and hope it never ends
We drink all day until we fall down, so we can do it all again

It's not a human walk, it's the human race
If we were living on the edge, taking too much space
So I'll doubt I'll figure out just what to do
But to kicking around, hanging out this afternoon, oh

Better hang on if you're tagging along
'Cause we'll be doing this till six in the morning
Nothing wrong with going all night long
Time to put the brakes on, doesn't matter when you gotta

Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up and fall down, we'll do it all again, yeah
Get up and go out, me and all my friends
Drink up and fall down, we'll do it all again

Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon

Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
Just sitting around, hanging out this afternoon
