How did Nickelback gain a large fan base despite criticism of their music?

(Yeah, it was great at first. But I have heard it a bit too much.)

Nickleback! Nickleback!

Hey, man, that band I told you about, Nickleback? The dropped their sophomore. It’s really good. Check it out.

According to Amy Schumer, John Cena was actually inside of her during the TrainWreck love scene. I thought that was illegal in Hollywood?

(Nickleback? They suck. Who cares…)

Here’s my ranking of Nickleback’s discography. They don’t have a bad album at all. But some are better than others. In last place is their most recent album. I felt it was very uninspired. This track is the best one and that track is pretty good. But the rest of the album doesn’t do much for me…

(Nickleback sucks! They’re the worst band ever! I can’t stand them. Why do so many people like them? So unoriginal!)

Are democrats eating crow?

Nickleback are awesome! My new favourite band! I just got their fourth album. It totally rocks!

Something like that. Millions of people love them. Millions claim to hate them. The most honest criticism of the music is that it sounds like it’s being written deliberately for a particular market. I haven’t heard anything since around 2002 or so, so I can’t say for myself. They don’t suck as in bad musicians or bad song writers. They just sell millions of albums while other excellent bands struggle. That’s what the real problem is, I think.

Dude, you heard that new single by that band, Nickleback? It’s awesome! Holy crap! That song is everywhere! It’s so cool!

What's the most trivial thing that ever made you go to the doctor?

I think it went something like this.

Hey, have you heard of this new band, Nickleback? Their first album is pretty cool.

(It really bugs me that such a boring, unoriginal band gets so much attention when there are loads of other way more interesting bands out there.)

What does it mean when someone leaves something in your house, your room to be exact, and when you tell them, they say they left it there on purpose?

(Wow! What’s with this band? So many people are going nuts for them? What’s so special about them? They had a decent song or two. But there’s no originality now. They’re just wearing themselves out chasing their own tail.)

(It sounds a bit too much like they took what made them popular from the previous album and just did more of that.)

Why is my crush beautiful to me but not to others?

Yay! Nickleback!
