The #1 purchased video on iTunes

Nickelback - "Rockstar"

Commentary via IM:

Jeff: Good god is that shit awful

Merry Swankster: Isn't it though. Like everything horrendous you can think of put to song with recognizable cameos.

Jeff: People have some really bad fucking taste. in everything, really

Merry Swankster: I mean i recognize the populist appeal of it, but doesn't make it good. Its just an enormous piece of processed American cheese, easily digestible for a public with low quality control mechanisms

Jeff: Sooo bad. Like "we loved Seven Mary Three but I wish it were more like mainstream country"

Merry Swankster: Nickelback are the "she reminds me" people right?

Jeff: I have no idea. I haven't listened to the radio in a decade

Merry Swankster: Is it bad to post it with our commentary? i think its funny

Jeff: well, go ahead, but it's sort of like shooting fish in a barrel

Merry Swankster: Hey its late friday afternoon!

One thing you can say for Nickleback fans, at least their fans are actually willing to pay for their music.

Busted.

My fiancee threatened to leave me if I didn't listen to this song because it has plagued her once too often. This is proof that ...um I don't know. It is just SHIT AWFUL. Now that I have been forced to listen to the damned song once I see her point. Our relationship has grown. We are stronger now. Strong enough to kick Nickelback fans in the eye. That strong.
