Five For Fighting is the stage name of American singer-songwriter John Ondrasik. Ondrasik adopted the moniker as a nod to ice hockey, where a player can receive a five-minute penalty for fighting. Five For Fighting rose to prominence in the early 2000s with hits like "Superman (It's Not Easy)" and "100 Years," known for Ondrasik's poignant lyrics and emotive vocals.
While "Chances" reached #83 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 2009, Five For Fighting's music is more recognized for its introspective and heartfelt themes rather than commercial success. Ondrasik's distinct blend of piano-driven melodies and thoughtful storytelling has garnered a loyal fan base, making him a respected figure in the realm of adult contemporary and singer-songwriter genres.
