Corgan isn't exactly an intellectual himself, is he? He likes to play one, at least in the digital realm. All his fucking riddles and amalgamations of 19th-century wordings on Instagram and then he can't even type properly when texting D'arcy. I guess she wasn't worth all those fancy words.

When I was a kid I remember the goo goo dolls guy talking about why he named his song "iris" and he said "if Billy corgan can pretend to be a genius by calling his songs luna or whatever I figure I can call this song iris" (paraphrased). As a corgan loving teen I hated reznik for that. Now, older and wiser, I am sympathetic to his point.

The brilliant thing about Nickelback is that they're very safe and it's the kind of music that soccer moms pick up at Walmart and hum along to in the minivan... They're essentially the favorite band for casual music fans. And even casual music fans like to indulge in a "rock and roll" spectacle every now and again. I suppose a lot of these fans are the same ones singing along to 1979 in 2018 though... And really, a lot of SP singles are formulaic radio-driven cuts... Stand Inside Your Love, Perfect, Try,Try, Try... These aren't very challenging pieces of music. |

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as A poor man stealing Tired of living like a blind man I'm sick of sight without A sense of feeling And this is how you remind me This is how you remind me Of what I really am This is how you remind me Of what I really am It's not like you to say sorry I was waiting on a different story This time I'm mistaken For handing you A heart worth breaking And I've been wrong I've been down Into the bottom of every bottle These five words in my head Scream Are we having fun yet? Yeah, yeah, yeah, no no Yeah, yeah, yeah, no no It's not like you didn't know that I said I love you and I swear I still do And it must have been so bad Cause living with him must have Damn near killed you And this is how you remind me Of what I really am |

Nickelback generally has more women at their shows than guys... Which is a total oddity in the world of "rock music"... But thanks for trying to spin it oddly.

Not true, I talk to squares about music, just general stuff like "who's your favorite band" and you'd be shocked how much Nickelback comes up glowingly... At least out here in Canada where I assume they're bigger.

Still, I'm willing to bet that Kroeger has at least a song or 2 where the main hook revolves around the phrase "Come on (and...)!"

A quick google search reveals that Nickelback has a song called "I'd Come For You"...
That's apparently one of Chad Kroegers favorite go-to songwriting plays, the sexual double entendres |

And you know what I meant by "squares"... Just your run of the mill woman or guy working an office job who doesn't really get around to listening to much music... Nickelback is their band... Sounds crazy, but it's really true.

Sometimes it's easy for us music nerds to forget that there's a lot of people out there who really don't even like music that much.

Yeah man. I know a ton of people who don't even listen to music, and they'll still go to concerts and then talk about what a brilliant artist John Cougar Mellincamp is lol.
