...and Creed begath 12 Stones who begath the Used...why is this happening?

why music has improved since 2002, exhibit A: A band like Creed would never make it big in 2008.

not true...nickleback concerts still sell out and get a ton of airplay...at least in my area....i tend to consider them pretty similar....commercial hard rock

loldaughtry

Nickelback are annoying and bad and appeal to a lot of the same people Creed appealed to but I don't think they sound all that alike. Creed are more riffy and lunkheaded.

Nickelback and Daughtry - sensitive meatheads; Creed - just meatheads

first big single (the one that's EXACTLY like Pearl Jam) still sounds pretty good, though!

ugh god

lol @ the idea that Nickelback are sensitive

They wish you to feel their Canadianness.

I like your pants around your feet
I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose

Ooooh
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed,
While you put me to the test
I like the wine stains on your dress

And I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I love your pants around your feet
And I love the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I hate the places that we go
And I hate the people that you know
And I hate the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I hate the powder on your nose

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I repeat my claim that Creed=Destiny's Child with bicep replacing booty

never gets old

nickelback might be WORSE than creed

They're neck-and-neck at the finish line for awfulness.

creed have a po-faced, bombastic quality which makes them funny. plus all those stapp-related antics from a few years ago.

nickelback are just *pukes*

by neither having cable nor listening to mainstream Rock radio since about 2000 I've managed to severely limit my exposure to the Creeds and Nickelbacks of the world. All was good until last year when I joined the Y by my office. I (try to) go on my lunch break daily, and I am guaranteed to hear that fucking "Rock Star" song on the local top 40 station they pump in EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. Literally every Day. There's not been a single time in the last year that I have left the gym without hearing it and it seriously starting to suck my will to live. Everything about it makes me nauseous. Utterly indefensible on every level. I hope that fucking guy gets leprosy of the throat and is rendered mute, never to emit his shitty stupid "growl" again.

p.s. my iPod broke and I've been too lazy/ poor to replace it. And earphones sort of annoy me when I'm working out.

p.p.s. me not having cable isn't because I'm one of those snooty anti-TV people, I just don't have $60 bucks/month to spend on crap. OK maybe I am one of those snooty anti-tv ppl.

plus all those stapp-related antics from a few years ago

yeah that stapp blowjob video was pretty funny

there's also that infamous Denny's incident and the fight with members of 311 on Thanksgiving in a hotel lobby

will, consider yourself lucky. "Rock Star" is one of their best songs! If that one made you hate life, I can't imagine what you'd do to yourself if exposed to "If Everyone Cared".

so today i was driving into work, and since my CD player didnt work due to the cold (lol) i had to listen to the radio (which usually isnt a problem, and i've been lucky enough to get beyonce or ne-yo the other times this has happened). the first "hit music" station played nickelback's new song (w/e it's called). i tried to force myself to listen to it, but had to switch to the other local "hit music" station after abt a minute, which as fate would have it was playing "rock star"

im kinda just lol with nickelback though, jsut because i find it simple minded and harmless. i had a violently negative reaction while (for some reason) watching a video yeaterday by this band called secondhand serenade tho
