"For the Nights I Can't Remember" is the second, and most successful so far, single by Hedley from their newest album, Famous Last Words. It is about a man who is sorry for doing wrong things, like drinking too much, etc... (hence the line; "I'm sorry for the nights I can't remember", referring to the song title and over-drinking). It has reached #6 on the Canadian Hot 100.

[edit] Music Video

The music video can be seen right here. The video starts off with a battered Jacob Hoggard getting pictured for a mug shot. It goes to his girlfriend who waits patiently for him, it cuts to him getting involved with an alley punk. The band is playing in a club being accompianed by back-up singers, with his girlfriend arriving to see him. One scene shows the girl looking at a letter from Jacob with the chorus written in; the first line in the chorus is then shown on a music sheet where Jacob performs on piano.

[edit] Song structure

The slow tempo and the chorus are inspired by Piano Rock and several Elton John songs.
