Satellite (Nickelback song)

In January 2015, Universal Music Germany announced "Satellite" as the album's second European single, with the release date yet to be determined. Nickelback opted for three region-specific releases for the album's second pop single after "What Are You Waiting For?": "Miss You" was released in the United Kingdom and "She Keeps Me Up" was released in North America, both in February 2015, and "Satellite" was released to continental Europe. The group uploaded an official lyric video for the song on March 18, 2015. Republic Records announced that "Satellite" would serve as the album's third pop single in the United States and serviced the song to the hot adult contemporary radio format on May 11, 2015. ==Critical reception==

Chase Hunt of AXS TV wrote that "Satellite" was an indicator of where "the creative juices seem to start running out" on the album, calling the song a "cliché tune" about love. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic complimented "Satellite" and "Miss You" as examples of Nickelback's sweet spot, writing that "the power ballad "Satellite" ... could easily be mistaken for adult contemporary pop from Y2K". Jeremy Thomas of 411 Mania criticized the song's formulaic composition, writing that "Satellite" "makes grand but meaningless statements... and sounds audibly like just about every rock ballad they've done". ==Music video==

The official music video for "Satellite" was directed by Nigel Dick and forms the second half of a two-part story that begins in the video for "Get 'Em Up". Both videos premiered on June 25, 2015. Following the failed bank robbery attempt in the first video, the protagonist and his girlfriend are on the run from the authorities. The clip finds the two enjoying a few minutes of togetherness at a house they have broken into. At the end of the video, the two are arrested. ==Track listing==
