Nickelback has achieved a prestigious place in music history, having sold nearly 45 million worldwide.  Since their 2001 breakthrough hit song “How You Remind Me,” Nickelback has sent more than 20 singles rocketing onto various Billboard charts. In 2009, Billboard named Nickelback “Top Group of the Decade.”  Their now-classic album All the Right Reasons insured Nickelback an indelible place in rock history: it spent a staggering 112 consecutive weeks in the Top 30 of the Billboard Top 200, was certified eight-times platinum in the U.S. with more than 11 million copies sold worldwide, and topped the charts in four countries. All the Right Reasons spun off seven multi-format singles and made Nickelback the first band in Nielsen BDS history to send five singles onto the CHR charts.
