You people are all missing the brilliance of this MP3. It is not one, but TWO Nickelback songs. But... really... it is only one nickelback song. Two megaselling singles from two completely different albums, different lyrics, same instrumentation. Completely.
What's great about this is the bassist's pathetic attempt at saving face: "When you're a band like us or ACDC that has a distinctive style, you run the risk of that happening. If all hits sound the same, then sorry."
DISTINCTIVE STYLE! What the fuck are you talking about? Yeah, they're, uh, Nickelback. With the crunchy guitar wall, punchy (yet warm!) drums, an invisible bassist and vocals that express the deep profoundity of the lyrics with a good helping of wisky-grit. Yes, they are clearly big inovaters in sounding different from everyone else there.
Even more hilarious is the worthless maggot of a publicist trying to deflect criticisms by saying "They are *NOT* the same song! How DARE you! The vocal line is completely different! The only thing that's the same is the guitar line or the number of choruses." Or the number of verses. Or the length of the verses. Or the length of the choruses. Or the drums or the placement of all the dynamic shifts or the length of the ENTIRE SONG or every other aspect of the piece of music that what us music college nerd type people commonly refer to as THE PIECE OF MUSIC... and by "or", I mean and.
He's right, though, the lyrics are sung totally differently... and Someday was originally down one holestep. So totally different songs. Yes. What WAS I thinking.
