"'Miles Away'" is a power ballad by American rock band Winger, from their album 'In the Heart of the Young'. Released in late 1990 to pop radio after already reaching number one in most AOR markets, the song peaked at #12 on the Hot 100.[ Artist Chart History: Winger] It is also significant for being Winger's only ever hit single in the United Kingdom, reaching #56 on January 24, 1991. Paul Taylor stated he wrote Miles Away for his girlfriend Emi Canyn who was one of the Nasty Habits, the background singers for Mtley Cre. The song references "Just When I Needed You Most" by Randy Vanwarmer, another Colorado artist. The single featured a B-side, "All I Ever Wanted", that was never released on any other Winger albums or compilations, though it did appear, in demo form, on the 'Demo Anthology'.
