10 rock songs that turn 25 years old in 2019
3. Candlebox - Far Behind
I remember this song getting regular rock radio airplay, but what I remember about this song the most is the video. The lead singer is walking around a house holding this cheap-ass dinky microphone with one hand, and connected to it is a coily cord held with the other hand. The microphone goes nowhere.
Every time I saw this, I just couldn't help but think, "Why is this dude holding a cheap microphone while walking through a house?" Definitely one of the dumbest things I've ever seen in a music video.
Yeah, I know that music videos aren't required to make sense. But that microphone is just plain stupid.
Aside from that microphone crapola, I can't stand this song. It's boring, unimaginative, and the worst part is that the guitar solo has several notes that are off key. Very grating on the ears. The singer also goes off key several times - in a studio release.
This song sucks.
