"Breathe" is a song recorded by Canadian rock band Nickelback. It was released on November 20, 2000, as the third single from the album The State. It was the second multi-format rock hit from the album in the United States, peaking at number ten on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and number 21 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. The song is also featured on MuchMusic's Big Shiny Tunes 5 compilation album and is also featured in the 2002 fantasy film, Clockstoppers.
Breathe was an English pop rock group that formed in the early 1980s.
Originally a larger, five-person band called Catch 22, all the members were childhood friends who went to Yateley School together in Hampshire where they lived. They later trimmed down to a quartet. Phill Harrison (bass) left to join the Fire Brigade. In 1984 singer David Glasper, guitarist Marcus Lillington, drummer Ian "Spike" Spice, and bass guitarist Michael "Mick" Delahunty began working on some demos. Those tunes were introduced to personnel from the label Siren Records, and that led to a recording contract with A&M Records. They released the album, All That Jazz, in 1988. This contained their two best-known hits, "How Can I Fall?" and "Hands to Heaven". The former charted on the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 3, and the latter at No. 2 in 1988 and at number 4 in the UK Singles Chart. "Hands" also ranked inside Billboard's 1988 Year-End Top 10 at No. 9.
Bassist Michael Delahunty left the group in 1988 as they were about to reach the peak of their success, and the remaining three continued with promotion for the All That Jazz album and singles. Afterward, they continued in this line-up with the lesser known Peace of Mind in early 1990.
