This is what Zachary Larson of Radio Airplay wrote about this song:
Overall Impression: The Fine Chairs have released their new rock tune Fadin' Away. Grooving gently with guitars and drums, Fadin' Away features a laid back rock sound tinted with psychedelics. While the groove stays on the subdued side, the jangly instrumental colors and bright vocals cut straight through and imbed themselves in listeners' ears. The solidity of the music and singing gives way for listeners to bask in the waves of sound. Overall, the tune has a stretchy quality that pulls and elongates time. This is especially prevalent in the chorus, which manages to be incredibly catchy while pulling listeners through an intricate colorful weave. With the release of Fadin' Away, The Fine Chairs provide listeners a chance to dissipate and melt away with the music for an incredibly enjoyable experience.
Strongest Point(s): There are many fine points with Fadin' Away and after sifting through each one of them, I still can't get the chorus out of my head.
Area(s) of Improvement: None, very nicely done. *note* the comments in this section, and the rated boxes below, are not displayed publicly in posted reviews and remain between the reviewer and artist.

lyrics
FADIN' AWAY
So you think you've made it through
The darkest times of all your days
The things had changed in so many ways
Now you're being prepared for feeling blue.
But what you think you've left behind
Is still connected with your soul
The rubber band between you and your furthest fear
Might draw it back too close to you.
People come and go
Fadin' away
Everyday
You did let 'em go
Fadin' away
Yesterday
One by one in a row
Fadin' away
Day by day.
So in the end it's up to you
To accept the ups and downs
Some people playin' roller coaster with your crown
Make sure to hold on really tight.
People come and go...

words & music by Sebastian Teufel
The Fine Chairs may consider themselves a pop-rock outfit, but after listening through their music, make no mistake – they
are much more than that. A fusion of influences and styles, combined with clear musical skill and tied together with well-crafted songs and a distinct lead vocal makes this group far more memorable than many of their contemporaries....more
