I just cannot believe all the bashing this band seems to get here. I just really do not understand it. Have you folks actually LISTENED to them? They are quite talented and may be one of the best bands of all time someday.

I can't tell if YOU'RE joking. Are you? If so, I guess New Kids On The Block and Britney Spears are good.

OMG!!! Man Nickelback is a SERIOUS band! They are not a "boy band" or a pop band at all. They write and sing serious songs about serious life! Did you ever see New Kids sing something like this

YouTube - Nickelback Never Again

Of course not! This is seriously good stuff that takes alot of work to put together. And no, I cannot stand Britney or New Kids!

Hey, no big deal. I think they're a really bad band. Lots of people like them, though. Different strokes and all.

When I hear a Nickelback song, I can't help but wonder if the douchebag singer wrote those lyrics in 5 minutes on the john.

I judge music on what the music is like, not on what the semantic content of the lyrics is like.

Tungsten, do you like any music that is not 'radio-friendly' or do you think that if it doesnt get airplay it probably isnt worth it? And if the answer is 'yes', who please? Just curious.
