CANADIAN ROCKERS NICKELBACK HAVE TAKEN A BEATING FROM NEARLY EVERYONE OVER THE YEARS, BUT BACK ON THIS DATE IN 2005, THEY HIT US WITH YET ANOTHER CATCHY SINGLE THAT TOTALLY LEANED INTO OUR NOSTALGIC FEELZ, IT WAS THE FIRST SINGLE FROM THEIR 5TH STUDIO ALBUM, “PHOTOGRAPH”…INSPIRED BY A PICTURE OF CHAD KROEGER AND NICKELBACK PRODUCER JOEY MOI TAKEN DURING SOME DRUNKEN NEW YEAR’S EVE PARTYING. WRITTEN BY KROEGER…WITH A MESSAGE THAT WE CAN ALL RELATE TOO WHEN LOOKING BACK ON OUR ADVENTURES…LIKE THE LYRIC, ‘WHAT THE HELL IS ON JOEY’S HEAD?”…THE PURE NOSTALGIA OF IT ALL IS SURE TO BE PART OF THE REASON WHY THE SINGLE BECAME THE BAND’S THIRD TOP TEN HIT AND IT ALSO PEAKED AT THE NUMBER 2 SPOT ON THE BILLBOARD HOT 100…AND THE MUSIC VIDEO HAS DEFINITELY SERVED AS A PERFECT TEMPLATE FOR MEMES…IT SEEMS YOU EITHER LOVE OR LOATHE NICKELBACK… RELEASED ON THIS DATE 19 YEARS AGO, LET’S ROCK OUT WITH “PHOTOGRAPH”, UNLESS YOUR NAME IS PAT…IT’S ROXY’S ROCK REWIND ON 105.7 THE X IN THE FIVE O CLOCK FREAK OUT SPONSORED BY SIREN TATTOO STUDIO
