10 Songs By The Answer You Need To Listen To

3. Nowhere Freeway

Picking up where "Tonight" left off, this continues the trend of rock n' roll songs that could easily become mainstream tracks, and at this point, I think it's safe to say that that's what The Answer excel at, being pioneers for the disenchanted rock n' roll fans of the world, whilst also helping to tear down the gap between mainstream music and rock music.

"Nowhere Freeway" marks a first for the band, as it see's them collaborate with British rock singer Lynne Jackman, from the band Saint Jude, in what can only be described as one of the best rock collaborations of the best decade.

When you speak to any fans of The Answer and ask them to name their favourite song, this usually comes in at the top spot, and if not, it comes in incredibly close to the top, and it's easy to see why. After listening to it once, you'll be hooked, and keep coming back to listen to it again and again.

Listening to Revival, the album from which this song comes, you'll know that this is head and shoulders the best song on the album, and there's even an acoustic recording if you get the deluxe version.

Collaborations between rock bands are pretty rare. Sure they happen all the time in the mainstream music scene, but in 2016, as I said before, this is what rock fans want to be listening to. Collaborations from two bands fighting to be heard, and supporting each other. After listening to this you'll probably be tempted to listen to some more of Lynne Jackman and Saint Jude and that is exactly why these sorts of collaborations happen.
