Three Days Grace Earns RIAA 6x Platinum for "Never Too Late"

The Canadian rock group Three Days Grace has reached a new milestone with their enduring 2006 single, "Never Too Late." The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) officially certified the track 6x Platinum on 18 de novembre del 2025, signifying 6,000,000 certified units sold. Released on 13 de juny del 2006, via RCA Records, the song remains one of the most prominent releases in the band's extensive catalog and a staple of the post-grunge era.

"Never Too Late" was issued as the third single from the band's second studio album, One-X. The song is noted for its powerful and hopeful message, which then-frontman Adam Gontier explained was about "being in a very dark place, but being able to see a way out." Due to its direct lyrical references to suicide, radio edits of the track were common during its initial release, with the line "end your life" often changed to "change your life" to meet censorship standards. Despite this, the song's raw emotional honesty resonated with listeners and has contributed to its lasting popularity, earning a Spotify popularity score of 78.

Since emerging from Norwood, Ontario, Three Days Grace has become a vanguard in modern hard rock. The band has achieved significant chart success, securing nineteen #1 records at Mediabase Active Rock and seventeen #1s at Billboard/BDS Active Rock. Their digital presence underscores their continued relevance; the group maintains over 17.3 million monthly listeners and more than 7.3 million followers on Spotify, while their lifetime streams on Pandora have surpassed 6.9 billion. Alongside "Never Too Late," their arsenal of rock anthems includes hits like "I Hate Everything About You," "Animal I Have Become," and "Riot," cementing their status as one of the most listened-to rock bands in the world.
