  • I'll be honest - the first album (The State) ain't half bad... I enjoyed that record...

    Everything after that sucked ass...

    And, for my money, creed and nickelback are equally sucky...

    you're right, but close enough...



    I'm through with standing in line
    to the clubs i'll never get in
    It's like the bottom of the ninth
    and I'm never gonna win
    This life hasn't turned out
    quite the way I want it to be

    (Tell me what you want)

    I want a brand new house
    on an episode of Cribs
    And a bathroom I can play baseball in
    And a king size tub big enough
    for ten plus me

    (so what you need)

    I'll need a, a credit card that's got no limit
    And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
    Gonna join the mile high club
    At thirty-seven thousand feet

    (Been there done that)

    I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
    And my own star on Hollywood Boulevard
    Somewhere between Cher and
    James Dean is fine for me

    (So how ya gonna do it?)

    I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
    I'd even cut my hair and change my name

    [CHORUS]
    'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
    Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
    The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
    We'll all stay skinny 'as we just won't eat
    And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
    In the VIP with the movie stars
    Every good gold digger's
    Gonna wind up there
    Every Playboy bunny
    With the bleach blond hair
    and well..
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

    I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
    Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
    Sign a couple autographs
    So I can eat my meals for free

    (I'll have a quesadilla haha)

    I'm gonna dress my ass
    with the latest fashion
    Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
    Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
    blow my money for me

    (So how ya gonna do it?)

    I'm gonna trade this life
    For fortune and fame
    I'd even cut my hair
    And change my name

    'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
    Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
    The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
    We'll all stay skinny 'as we just won't eat
    And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
    In the VIP with the movie stars
    Every good gold digger's
    Gonna wind up there
    Every Playboy bunny
    With the bleach blond hair
    And we'll hide out in the private rooms
    With the latest dictionary and
    todays who's who
    We'll get you anything
    with that evil smile
    Everybody's got a
    drug dealer on speed dial
    well..
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

    I'm gonna sing those songs
    that offend the censors
    Gonna pop my pills
    from a pez dispenser
    Get washed-up singers writing all my songs
    Lip sync 'em every night so I don't get 'em wrong

    Well we all just wanna be big rockstars
    Live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
    The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
    We'll all stay skinny 'as we just won't eat
    And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
    In the VIP with the movie stars
    Every good gold digger's
    Gonna wind up there

    with that evil smile
    Everybody's got a
    drug dealer on speed dial well..
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
    Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar


    never listedned to the whole thing, but man, i hope they don't play the whole song on the radio...

    This thread is interesting in that it is a bunch of people bashing a band that has gone farther in its career than any of the critics in this thread will in theirs. Whoever laughs when when a band gets rocks thrown at them on stage is immature. If you hate a band, don't go to the show. If you hate a band and go to the show, you're a moron. So if you agree with what a moron does, then you are a moron too.

    took the words right out of my mouth....nickelback and creed....2 of the worst efforts to date!
  • I have the pleasure of being Canadian, which im proud, but man, I have to listen to this shit on the radio 24/7...I drive down the street, and hear Nickleback blowing out the speakers of some skeezy losers vehicle. screaming out the shitty lyrics, I can't even describe how much I dispise Nickleback and generally the fact that they are so popular, seriously makes me ill!

    example: The Next Big Hit for Nickleback

    "im blond, im gone, im going drinking and driving and crossing the pond
    i don't care what you think, I like pink, when you hit a skunk it stinks, baby"

    Cause lets not forget Chad Kroger or however you spell his name (not worth looking up) just got busted for drinking a driving...

    Die Nickleback Die!
    Surrendered, Executed Anyhow.
    He Who Forgets will be Destined to Remember.

    If Everyone Cared Lyrics



    From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
    Confusing stars for satellites
    I never dreamed that you'd be mine
    But here we are, we're here tonight

    Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
    Singing Amen, I, I'm alive

    [Chorus:]
    If everyone cared and nobody cried
    If everyone loved and nobody lied
    If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
    Then we'd see the day when nobody died

    And I'm singing

    Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
    Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive

    And in the air the fireflies
    Our only light in paradise
    We'll show the world they were wrong
    And teach them all to sing along

    Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
    Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
    (I'm alive)

    [Chorus x2]

    And as we lie beneath the stars
    We realize how small we are
    If they could love like you and me
    Imagine what the world could be

    If everyone cared and nobody cried
    If everyone loved and nobody lied
    If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
    Then we'd see the day when nobody died
    When nobody died...

    [Chorus]

    We'd see the day, we'd see the day
    When nobody died
    We'd see the day, we'd see the day
    When nobody died
    We'd see the day when nobody died




    thats a good song

    Yeah, we shouldn't be allowed to criticize a band we don't like, because they're more successful than us! Good thinking!
    It's a town full of losers and I'm pulling out of here to win

    aCtually the footage seems to be of some musical festival, where Nickelhack were on the bill. in that case the people attending were probably there to see much more talented bands and artists perform, and were aggitated over the fact that a horrible mass of untalented slime had lurked on stage

    It isn't that you criticize, it's that you go way overboard with it, and the criticism never seems to stop. I don't listen to Nickelback, and for the most part I think they suck, but I don't get my jollies by bashing them.

    Hell, some of you are posting their lyrics. Here's a thought, turn the radio station. When people start quoting lyrics, me thinks they are closet Nickelback fans.

    I don't like Audioslave, RHCP, Tool....I guess i should start a thread to talk about that.

    Doesn't change the fact that they were throwing hard objects at the band, and some of you support that.

    Go right ahead, that's what forums are for. And you don't have to be a closet fan if you post lyrics. You do realize this lovely thing called the 'internet' has many sites dedicated to posting lyrics of every song they can get their hands on and it takes a mere 5 seconds on Google to find said lyrics and copy and paste, right? I agree some people take things overboard like saying the band should die or whatever but there's nothing wrong with talking about how much a band sucks on a message board.

    It's the best way to rock out at a Nickleback concert.;)

    And yes it was at a festival in Portugal which was mostly heavy metal acts on the bill.
    Cant remember which one, I also support the people throwing bottles at MCR at the Reading festival.
    Can not be arsed with life no more.
  • Some of their non-singles are actually okay (not great but okay) but nearly every single they release is almost the same as the single before, the perfect generic rock band.
    The wind is blowing cold
    Have we lost our way tonight?
    Have we lost our hope to sorrow?

    Feels like were all alone
    Running further from what’s right
    And there are no more heroes to follow

    So what are we becoming?
    Where did we go wrong?
  • for that cd I purchased a few years back. Honestly, I rarely have any issues with cd's that I purchased. I usually like at least 4 or 5 songs if not the whole album but I can honestly say that cd sucked!
    I went to a concert that they were playing at. I actaully went to see Jerry Cantrell who opened for them. And I thought the show was so super lame. Very overrated band.
    Let's Go Red Sox!

    isn't that like a five star french chef insulting mcdonalds and you saying "shut up, more people eat thier food than yours!"?
