This album =WWE Tough Enough 2|"WWE Tough Enough 2" is a
compilation album of music related to theMTV reality TV series "WWE Tough Enough ". Cold's "Gone Away" served as the album's single with a popularmusic video released in mid-April 2002. According to a label spokesperson mere weeks before the album's release, "Tough Enough 2" was to include a track byGodsmack ."Gone Away"
The album's single, a moody
ballad , was originally written for Cold vocalistScooter Ward 's daughter Raven. It focuses on missing family while being on the road and traveling to performances, a necessary evil in both music andprofessional wrestling . Regarding the song's addition to the "Tough Enough 2" album, Ward said::"Leaving home all the time, never being here because we were on the road — I thought that [wrestlers] must feel the same way because they travel a lot. They leave their family and all that, so I figured I'd just send [what I was working on] to them, thinking they'd never pick it up, but they did."The song's music video was credited as from Cold's forthcoming album "
Year of the Spider ", which wouldn't be released until a year later. Two videos were made, the original having been shot in March 2002 in the group's hometown ofJacksonville, Florida , by directorPaul Boyd . In it, the daughter is seen on one of three giant projection screens as Cold perform in a plush, empty theater while fans are projected on the other screens. The audience, some of which traveled fromChicago to be cast into the video, was also treated to a few other Cold songs at the small venue. [D'Angelo, Joe and Cooper, Amy V.
