yay

I love their old stuff but I don't like their new song D:

If you allow one of your songs to be used in a DFS commercial, I think it's safe to say you've got even less credibility than you have talent.

Similarly, if you think one song and what was done with it undermines the credibility of an artist/band then you are not much of a music fan.

Nay the only song I don't mind from them are This is how you remind me'

Agree with most people here, absolutely love How You Remind Me. Come to think of it, it's the only song I really like from them.

So because I think it was really naff for Nickleback to sell out to one of the most laughable companies in the country when it comes to advertising, I'm not much of a music fan?

I'd be quite offended if I wasn't laughing so hard at you.

No just that you think one song undermines a band's credibility. I'm pretty sure The Rolling Stones had several songs feature in advertisements and no one doubts their credibility.

It's not the song (an overweight, monotonous, self-indulgent cliche that 'Rock Star' is) that undermines Nickleback's credibility, it's allowing DFS of all companies to use the track that undermines them. It could have been any Nickleback song used by DFS and it would still be a supposedly cool (to some people?) US rock band soundtracking some of the shittiest commercials ever made.

On the other hand, if 'Rock Star' had been lent to, say, Coca Cola, I doubt anyone would have questioned Nickleback's credibility. You have to pick and choose a bit more carefully, and not be greedy pigs who go for the first shitarse company who throws a bunch of pound notes at you.

nay.

pop rock sucks. And so does their lyrics. Too slushy.

It's a yay for me as I love commercial pop/rock especially Def Leppard and Bon Jovi.

I get that lots of people don't like them though, it doesn't bother me.

Yay..I Love Them, whether it's commercial or being down right naughty & raunchy songs that would never get near a radio, i love songs that are catchy,have a good beat,you can sing along to,and a good vocalist ...oh and they do make extremly good slushy ballads

nay...even more dull then coldplay... awful...

I still think that one song and what is done with it does not undermine an artists credibility because all artists make mistakes. Journey inexplicably let Glee use Don't Stop Believing and I still love them.

NB dull Lol...have you got the right band

I'm not sure anyone would have found Journey to be that credible prior to Glee anyway...


Erm yeah. You evidently like them with the eponymous username, but yes, they're so dull they may aswell shoot a promo video of a cowpat hardening to liven things up a bit.

Agh yes , their "hit" song

NAY.

erm... yes, plus 50 years of listening to decent music of all genres.... nickleback imho = dull, dreary, bland, uninspiring, mor, muzak..... sorry!

So you say..There's nothing like a laugh first thing in morning Thanks

They have some great songs, but catchy as hell... a little too sickly sweet for me, like a poor man's Bon Jovi!

Why is it so hard for you to accept that many people think Nickleback are shit? Yes you love them, that's very good for you. But those of us whose tastes span a bit further than insipid cliche-riddled dad rock are entitled to say we dislike them, y'know.

How do you know he/she loves Nickelback? Is there some obvious clue that I'm not picking up on??








































j/k

Nay...

..... and thats the irony, i AM a dad, i grew up in the 70's as rock was developing, nickleback supposed to be my cup of tea.... but i hate them!

Probably the worst genre that thrived in the 1970s was glam rock, but even the likes of Mud and Sweet are better than Nickleback!
