Vertical Horizon's music provides examples of:
""Hold me inside you, 'cause I want to be inside you, inside you...""
 * Album Title Drop: The songs "There And Back Again" and "Everything You Want" for their respective albums. Also, Running On Ice takes its name from a line in the song "Falling Down," and Burning The Days comes from the songs "I Believe In You" and "Carrying On."
 * Alliterative Name: Keith Kane.
 * Big Rock Ending: A number of their songs employ this. "We Are" and "Shackled," for example.
 * Bilingual Bonus: "Japan" on the Running On Ice album has Japanese speech in the last verse.
 * Break Up Song: "Shackled," the last track on the Everything You Want album, was written while Keith Kane was going through a relationship breakup.
 * Dual-Meaning Chorus: "Inside" on the Go album:


 * Fading Into the Next Song: A number of their songs do this. "Everything You Want" and "Finding Me" are two examples from Everything You Want.
 * A Good Name for a Rock Band: One version of the story goes that while Keith Kane was writing down a list of possible names, he wrote the word "vertical" then drew a horizontal line along the bottom of the word. The rest, as they say, is history.
 * New Sound Album: There And Back Again and Running On Ice consist largely of songs recorded to a soft guitar rhythm with almost no percussion accompaniment. Then you listen to "We Are," the first song on the Everything You Want album, which has plenty of percussion and louder guitar sounds. From there on out it's a mix of the old and new.
 * Not Christian Rock: Explained in greater detail here.
 * Poor Communication Kills: According to Matt Scannell in a 1997 MTV interview (for which part of the transcript is seen here), this is part of the underlying message behind "We Are."
 * Single Woman Seeks Good Man: Sung about in "Everything You Want."
 * "Well Done, Son" Guy: Hinted at in "The Man Who Would Be Santa." Matt Scannell indicated that he wrote the song after an argument with his father.
