Unplugged: Crossfade, "So Far Away"

Ripped from VH1 before it was apparently removed.
Just wanted to make the video more readily available than it was.
Edit: Added subtitles. (4/22/23)

[@RockFeed]

One of the most underrated rock bands

TRUE THAT! I wish they'd put out more hits but they stopped for some reason 😣 definitely could be opening for bands like breaking benjamin, ffdp, Three days grace.

@@JohnWayne-vf5bs I think either colors or the deep end was the one that really sucked me in

[@JohnWayne-vf5bs]

@@mrshallowsun yeah colors was the first song that I heard of them by the what do you think would of happened if Tony byroads stayed in crossfade

[@mrshallowsun]

@@JohnWayne-vf5bs I’ve always wondered that actually. I tend to believe Ed was the true mastermind behind most of the songs so I don’t know that things would have gone much differently than they did. As far as their second album a lot of those songs were just redone from a previous album/albums when they were under a different name (maybe you already knew this) so I think in general even though I absolutely love falling away it does feel slight uninspired using those old songs so in a way it’s not that surprising it didn’t attract general attention and more so just crossfade and rock fans. Mitch did have quite a few spotlight vocal sections on it but their voices (ed and Mitch have less contrast between them than Ed and Tony’s. I don’t know that that fact would have changed the success of the album. I’ve pondered crossfade a history current status and what could have been A LOT lol they’re one of my absolute favorites I really hope they could make more music and if Tony hooked back up with them I’d probably turn into a screaming fan girl just because of the og lineup

@@dogeboss9662 All comes down to how specific one's taste is, and how willing one is to branch off from it- one would find sparse selection for new songs in the Rockabilly, Ska Punk, New Wave, or Sunshine Pop genres for a few examples. Personally, I'm perfectly happy jumping between songs as far back as the 40's to songs released within the last couple of years and spanning several genres.
