I never listen to Nickelback, but why are they the standard joke of bad music? Most music sucks.
Read the lyrics and you'll get the idea...
I'm through with standing in line to 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
(Mmm so what you need)
I'll need 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 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
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap We'll all stay skinny 'cause 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 her bleach blond hair And we'll, 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 the quesadilla.)
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 And live in hilltop houses drivin' fifteen cars The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap We'll all stay skinny 'cause 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 her bleach blond hair And we'll hide out in the private rooms With the latest dictionary of today's who's who They'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 And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap We'll all stay skinny 'cause 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 her bleach blond hair And we'll hide out in the private rooms With the latest dictionary of today's who's who They'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 Hey, hey, I wanna be a rockstar
They have three or four good songs. I wouldn't actually pay money for any of them with YouTube and such. KISW used to overplay them a lot about 15 years ago (it wasn't one of their good songs).

Point taken. I'll take Cyprus Hill Rock and/or Rap Superstar over Nickelback's pile of shit.
A few years ago I was in a bar with a buddy sitting next to a table of late 30 something women. "Rockstar" comes on and a guy about 40 wearing an Affliction shirt sitting a few tables down starts singing along. My buddy and I started laughing and one of the women at the table next to me leaned over and said, "Nickelback, the anthem of divorced dads everywhere."

That's the same guy that yells at the TV during games at a bar while watching teams he doesn't follow.
