Nickelback

Nickelback

Fundado en 1995, su nombre viene de las monedas de 5 centavos de dólar, que reciben en Canadá el nombre de Nickel, que Mike Kroeger tenía que devolver a los clientes de la cafetería Starbucks en la que trabajaba. En ella tenía que decir a sus clientes «aquí tiene sus cinco centavos» (traducción no literal de «here?s your nickel back») El núcleo del grupo proviene de Hanna, Alberta (Canada), aunque actualmente están establecidos en Vancouver, Columbia Británica (Canada). Nickelback fueron ayudados en sus inicios por la ley canadiense denominada Cancon. Dicha ley establece que debe haber un determinado porcentaje de música de artistas canadienses en las radios del país. Su segundo LP, The State, los lanzó al estrellato con dos éxitos que alcanzarón los diez primeros puestos en la lista de ventas (siendo uno de ellos «Leader of Men») y el siguiente álbum Silver Side Up, con el single más escuchado, «How You Remind Me», les dieron un status de superestrellas, consiguiendo numerosos éxitos en cada álbum desde entonces

Letra de Side Of A Bullet (Album Version)
Uncle Sam taught him to shoot
Maybe a little too well
Finger on the trigger, loaded bullet
He hit the stage so full of rage
And let the whole world know it
Six feet away, they heard him say
"Oh God, don't let him pull it"

Please God, don't let him pull it
How could you put us through it?
His brother watched you do it

How could you take his life away?
(What made you think you had the right...)
How could you be so full of hate?
(...to take away somebody's life?)
And when I heard you let him die
And made the world all wonder why
I sat at home and on my own,
I cried alone
And scratched your name
On the side of a bullet

And in the wake of his mistake
So many lives are broken
Gone forever from a loaded bullet
And no excuse that you could use
Could pull somebody through it
And to this day so many say
"God why'd you let him do it?"

How could you let him do it?
How could you put us through it?
His brother watched him do it

How could you take his life away?
(What made you think you had the right...)
How could you be so full of hate?
(...to take away somebody's life?)
And when I heard you let him die
And made the world
all wonder why
I sat at home and cried alone
and on my own
I scratched your name
On the side of a bullet
On the side of a bullet
On the side of a bullet
