Ever wish you were a Rockstar? Nickelback is just that, a rocker, go hard music group. They sing all rock songs with some heavy metal and a little acoustic song here and there. As you listen, you get this vibe, a vibe like no other through your whole body. It’s like you are a rockstar in your own world just without the pocketfuls of money, the playboy bunnies running around you and the drugs flowing in without having to feel it! It’s like you’re a rockstar but no one is watching you! As we compare the group to others, there really is not a lot of difference, maybe in some lyrics of songs but it’s nothing devastating. Example is Puddle of Mudd writes and sings about how their girlfriends are being real treats and they are sick of dealing with them, almost as a he treats them and acts as a trailer homeboy from somewhere in Alabama. Nickelback rocks out to having these huge parties in this lavish lifestyle! He doesn’t care what happens; he is just out to have a great time. In the song “This Afternoon”, the lyrics are all about having this huge party with a bunch of girls in bathing suits with a lot of beer. It starts out with some friends coming over then before you know it there are 100’s of people hanging out and even some guy hijacked the beer truck and stuffed the beer guy in the back and drove it to this party. It goes on to say that there all to hang out and it’s an everyday ordeal! Come on, don’t you want to party in nice weather everyday as a rockstar? I would agree with most critics’ opinions on Nickelback’s music, in almost every blog, article, post I have read, the author really likes their music and loves the band members too. I would agree with them in the fact that they do have good music and the songs are not out of control on doing all these drugs and getting plastered every night, it’s that life’s a party, enjoy have fun! Let’s say this, If I could go to a Nickelback concert, or even live like them, I fore sure would not pass! Living a rockstar lifestyle and have a great ball of a time in every waking moment, why would I pass?
