What music/ artist you don't like?

[curse_t_70]

I don't like bands such as Nickelback, Creed and Daughtry. I think it's mainly because of these lead singer's voices, IMO they sound like they're yelling and are not melodic at all. I always change the radio station when any of these are played, which unfortunately for me is a lot!

Yay, my status is now "Supersonic"!!!

Congrats on the Supersonic status..hmm..ya need 50, I have a long way to go. (I am not that chatty) I full on agree with your dislike of Nickelback. I am ashamed to say they are Canadian. YUK

[Giba7]

If I could take out one artist, it'd be Drake! Ugh! Can't stand it!

As for Creed, I actually like them!
"With Arms wide open" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99j0zLuN ... ure=relmfu
"Higher" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J16lInLZRms

As for Nickelback I like
"Someday" & "Rockstar" -There's another I love, not sure what song, might be somebody else!

Hilarious!
Check out "Rockstar" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmeUuoxyt_E
I think 1:30 is Jay Kay!

Thanks curse_t_70! Don't worry, it took me ages as well!

Giba - I haven't heard of Drake.

The Nickelback song you love but couldn't remember - could it be "If Today Was Your Last Day"? I actually think that is a great song, the lyrics are excellent. It's just this singer's voice, it really hurts my ears!

[Giba7]

@ CosmicLea -"If Today Was Your Last Day" isn't it. But thanks for helping!
I think it's somebody else. Heartbreak song.

I see your point Giba, I only listened to about a minute of that!

Just had to turn the radio off - Nickelback's new song just came on!!

[Giba7]

Oh my gosh! So funny!
Nickelback was asked to play at our Thanksgiving game.
And now they want to dis-invite them!

[CosmicLea]

Thanks Giba - I haven't been well the past few days and this really made me laugh!

Especially this: "That's right -- these seventh-generation Pearl Jammers are set to whine and squall at halftime of the Lions' game against the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Day, and the city of Detroit is not at all happy about it."

Whine and squall is right! Can't STAND THEM...I was listening to a local canadian station when I heard the anouncement and the djs said Canadians (in general) hate these guys but supposably they are HUGE internationally (Japan etc..) They mentioned they should have White Stripes rejoin and play or Aretha Franklin (didn't know she was from Detriot!

[CosmicLea]

Just want to clarify that being Canadian has nothing to do with my dislike of Nickelback, curse_t_70!! Not that you thought that anyway! I love Canada, I was lucky enough to spend 3 months there in 1998, in Burlington, near Toronto. I also visited Vancouver for a long weekend while there. Very beautiful country! Would love to go back someday!

And yes, Nickelback do appear to be huge internationally, Australia seems to love them! (Not this Australian though!)

[Giba7]

[ They mentioned they should have White Stripes rejoin and play or Aretha Franklin (didn't know she was from Detriot!

Really? Aretha is the epitome of Detroit! (ever hear her talk?)
But what an awesome voice...

I don't care who they have, I'll be cooking and cleaning. Listening to "Alice's Restaurant" on the Radio!

Glad you got to see Vancouver, I lived there for 2 years..a fun city but Victoria is prettier and more my style. I WISH I could say I have visited Australia, only on the RISK board Its an easy 2 armies If you own it.

Is that a game? (Haven't played it before)

I visited Whistler too, can you believe it was the first and only time I've seen snow! (There wasn't much though as it was May, but I still got to have a snowball fight!)

Just noticed something funny - I live in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia!

[Giba7]

RISK -used to play this!

Want Snow? Come to my city in a month. Stay thru April and you'll be sick of it.
I only like to drive crazy in it!

[CosmicLea]

I don't think I could live in a city that snowed during Winter - I really hate cold weather/feeling cold!

[Giba7]

So, the song I always give credit to Nickelback is:
"It's Been a while" by Staind. Just love this song.

[CosmicLea]

Don't think I've heard that one before Giba.

I don't care much for Nicki Minaj, find her a bit annoying.

[Giba7]

Nicki Minaj is a bit annoying! But I end up singing what I can keep up with anyways!

Staind"It's been a while" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHc4PKTEEBM

[Giba7]

Elliot Goulding ...WTF? Well at least her performance on SNL.

[CosmicLea]

Staind "It's been awhile" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8q182kWAhiM

Had a listen and I didn't know that song. Maybe it didn't get played on radio here because of the cursing! Anyway, not my type of music!

I 'member this song...got a lot of radio play here in Victoria...I agree not my thing, I am not into whining.

So, what did the radio do about the cursing, or did they have a clean version of the song?

Nickelback was on the radio before (as usual). What I can't understand is, how did that lead singer get a recording contract with a terrible voice like that?!

[Giba7]

Ummm, well the cursing is cut out for the radio (clean version).
I didn't really even notice the cursing!
And it's not whining. He's pouring his heart out. It's just in a rock style!
I think it's a man's way of singing sentimental words of an ex.

It's the one band my friend and I can agree on!

Different strokes for different folks.......Jay knows how to pour his heart out in a song without whinning such as Blue Skies...
BK's "Too afraid to love you"

[CosmicLea]

I didn't really even notice the cursing!

I couldn't miss the cursing Giba, because the YouTube video you posted had lyrics!!
The F word was used quite a bit!

[curse_t_70]

Did you guys hear about NICKELBLOCK it is a plug in for Firefox and Chrome. Once installed you never have to read about Nickleback again. Oh happy day!
