E' il novembre del 2002 e i 3 Doors Down pubblicano il loro nuovo disco "Away From The Sun" ,un disco che esprime un pop rockeggiante stile Puddle Of Mood ,il loro sound e' attualizzat da un largo uso di chitarre elettriche decentralizzate e una batteria che sancisce gli stop e le riprese con repentini cambi di tempo.
Sicuramente non gli si puo' pero' attribuire troppa originalita' visto che il loro genere e' stato creato,diviso,anallizzato,spezzato,cambiato,influenzato molto prima che loro nascessero , pero' portano avanti comunque un loro stile che si connette al fermento che producono i giovani rocker del nuovo millennio.
I 3 Doors Down sicuramente non hanno un album forte alle spalle ,tanto meno ne hanno fatti nel futuro ma questo cd vale la pena ascoltarlo per una serie di canzoni che fluttuano nella stanza come canzoni malinconiche di Tasso ,proprio come nell'"Aminta" in questo cd c'e' il ragazzo pastorello che si invaghisce di una ninfa alla quale pero' non riesce a dichiararsi.
In questo cd troviamo molte traccie di una buona fattura e soprattutto grandissimo carattere interpretativo come nella loro canzone piu' rinnomata "Here Without you" dove si fa enfatizzando una ragazza che non c'e' piu' nella vita del cantante ,si va elevando nell'ambiente un atmosfera intrinseca di significati cheinvestono il piano sentimentale.
Bellissima e' anche "This Time" malinconica ,dispersiva psicadelica e molto tecnica;"Changes" poi con i suoi repentini cambi di tempo ci permette di percepire l'elevato bagaglio tecnico che ha alle spalle il gruppo fatto di tantissima esperienza in campo musicale."Ticket To Heaven" e' il simbolo del gruppo per il fatto che si sfoggiano all'interno tutte le caratteristiche del gruppo ,purtroppo anche quelle negative come qualche imprecisione ritmica ,colpa forse della troppo ricercata melodicita'.
Un cd simbolo del tempo che e' passato,di quando ci lamentavamo del rock newage......ora invece ci troviamo ad ascoltare in televisione gruppi che provono a sfondare con canzonette da bar nelle quali non si espongono quasi per non provocare troppi danni......almeno a quei tempi si giocava a carte scoperte......
ded to:chi ha scritto che sexyajax lecca il culo.....perche' significa che non ha veramente capito un cazzo.......bella

03 The Road I'm On (03:59)
She said life’s a lot to think about sometimes
When you’re living in between the lines
And all the stars are sparkling, shine everyday
He said life’s so hard to move in sometimes
When it feels like I’m in the line
And no one even cares to ask me why I feel this way
And I know you feel helpless now, and I know you feel alone
That’s the same road, the same road that I’m on, yeah
He said life’s a lot to think about sometimes
When you keep it on between the lines
And everything I want and I want to find one of these days
But what you thought was real in life
Oh, it somehow steer you wrong
And now you just keep driving, trying to find out where you belong
And I know you feel helpless now, and I know you feel alone
That’s the same road, the same road that I’m on
What you thought was real in life, somehow steer you wrong
And now you just keep driving, trying to find where you belong
I know you feel helpless now, I know you feel alone
That’s the same, the same road that I’m on
04 Ticket to Heaven (03:27)
I’m walking a wire, it feel likes a thousand ways I could fall
To want is to buy, but to live is to die and you can’t take it all
When everything is said and done I won’t have one thing left
What happened to everything I've ever known
All he gave me was this ticket to heaven, that ticket to heaven, said to lie in the bed that
you make
Now I’m restless and I’m running from everything, I’m running from everything, I’m afraid it’s
a little too late
It’s a voices lie, and innocence dies, now ain't that a shame?
And all of your dreams, and all your money they don’t mean a thing
When everything is said and done, you won’t have one thing left
What happened to everything I've ever known
All he gave me was this ticket to heaven, that ticket to heaven, said to lie in the bed that
you make
Now I’m restless and I’m running from everything, I’m running from everything, I’m afraid it’s
a little too late
It’s a little too late
All he gave me was this ticket to heaven, that ticket to heaven,
said to lie in the bed that you make
Now I’m restless and I’m running from everything, I’m running from everything, I’m afraid it’s
a little too late
All he gave me was this ticket to heaven, that ticket to heaven, said to lie in the bed that
you make
Now I’m restless and I’m running from everything, I’m running from everything, I’m afraid it’s
a little too late
It’s a little too late
06 Here Without You (03:58)
A hundred days have made me older
since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lights have made me colder
and I don’t think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face
I’m here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it’s only you and me
The miles just keep rollin'
as the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
but I hope that it gets better as we go
I’m here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me
Everything I know,
and anywhere I go
it gets hard but it won’t take away my love
And when the last one falls,
when it’s all said and done
it gets hard but it won’t take away my love
I’m here without you baby
but you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me
07 I Feel You (04:07)
They gave me a life that’s not so easy to live
And then they sent me on my way
I left my loving, forgot my dreams
I lost them along the way
Those little things you say
When words mean so much
You never back down
And they all shy away
You always listen to me
And what do I care to get me through these sleepless nights
And what do I have to hold when no one’s there to hold me tight
And what do I see the only thing that gets me through this is I feel and I feel you
And this ain’t no bitterness
Then I’d rose just the same
Got this road short and can be long
Another endless day, another seven hundred miles that’ll take me further from my home
Those little things you say
When words mean so much
You never back down
And they all shy away
You always listen to me
And what do I care to get me through these sleepless nights
And what do I have to hold when no one’s there to hold me tight
And what do I see the only thing that gets me through this is I feel and I feel you
I know what you’re going through now
Believe me I live this
And what do I care to get me through these sleepless nights
And what do I have to hold when no one’s there to hold me tight
And what do I see the only thing that gets me through this is I feel and I feel you
08 Dangerous Game (03:36)
You stand before me,
now we stare eye to eye.
Before another second click's away,
one of us will die.
You reach for your metal
as I reach for mine.
The sound of bullets flying through the air
is followed by a cry.
And they're cryin'
What will we do?
What will we say?
When it's the end of this game that we play
will we crumble into the dust my friend?
Or will we start this game over again?
It's coming back to me
This young man lies alone but fastend to the ground.
The sound of fleeing feet and a crying eye
will be his last sound. Yeah.
What do we gain from all this?
Now was it worth a life?
No
We've thrown all our hopes away
and set our dreams aside
Now they're crying
What will we do,
What will we say,
When it's the end of this game that we play?
Will we crumble into the dust my friend
or will we start this game over again?
It's coming back to me
It's coming back to me
What will we do,
What will we say,
When it's the end of this game that we play?
Will we crumble into the dust my friend
or will we start this game over again?
09 Changes (03:56)
I'm not suposed to be scared of anything, but I don't know where I am
I wish that I could move but I'm exhausted and nobody understands (how I feel)
I'm trying hard to breathe now but there's no air in my lungs
There's no one here to talk to and the pain inside is making me numb
I try to hold this Under control
They can't help me 'Cause no one knows
Now I'm going through changes, changes
God, I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated, save me
Now I'm going through changes, changes
I'm feeling weak and weary walking through this world alone
Everything you say, every word of it, cuts me to the bone
I've got something to say, but now I've got no where to turn
It feel like I've been buried underneath all the weight of the world
I try to hold this Under control
They can't help me 'Cause no one knows
Now I'm going through changes, changes
God, I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated, save me
Now I'm going through changes, changes
I'm blind and shakin'
Bound and breaking
I hope I make it through all these changes
Now I'm going through changes, changes
God, I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated, save me
Now I'm falling apart, now I feel it
Now I'm going through changes, changes
God, I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated, I hate this
But I'm going through changes, changes
11 Sarah Yellin' (03:17)
She says, I’ve got something to say
She knows what she says well change everything
She led through to many sleepless nights
She’s crying, she’s crying, she’s crying
Mother that man took my soul away
Father how could you ever treat me this way
Brother don’t let him do this again
This time it’s over I’m gonna make it end
Now it’s over and the old man is in
Lying on the ground bullet in his head
She stood at the foot of the guilty bed last night
She held what she said for the rest of her life
She did all what see said she is gonna do
She’s through, she’s through, she’s through, yeah
Mother that man took my soul away
Father how could you ever treat me this way
Brother don’t let him do this again
This time it’s over I’m gonna make it end
Now it’s over and the old man is in
Lying on the ground bullet in his head
There’s a bullet in your head
I kept falling down, I kept falling down
I kept crying out, I kept crying out
I keep falling down, I keep falling down
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready
Now it’s over, this is what she said
He’s lying on the ground bullet in his head
