    • @pinkrose8272
      @pinkrose8272 Год назад +284

      I agree like it does not sound much like swing at all. It still has all the rock instrumentation but it does have those back up singers and a slight groovier sound to it. It sounds like really cool. I know of plenty of indie rock bands that have stuff like trumpets in them or plenty of backup singers but none sound like this. I think it may be the singing as Chad Kroeger's voice sounds so much better in the version maybe its that slight auto-tune I hear, but it's more likely that something about those great back up singers and the newer feel fits his voice more than rock ever did. I dont understand it but I love it.
      I think we should call this possibly new and beautiful genre Butt Swing (butt rock + swing). I think it is fitting

    I maintain that Nickelback does not deserve the hate they get. Their music isn't revolutionary or anything, but it's not bad. It's pretty middle of the road pop rock.
    What's more, everything I've seen from people that have met them personally says they're just a great bunch of guys in general. I knew a guy who worked back stage at the stadium in my city, setting up and tearing down various events. He said there was only one time they pretended to not recognize a celebrity when they came to the back door and that was Nickelback, and they were really good humored about it. They were also incredibly polite, please and thank you for everything, and they kept apologizing for asking for stuff because they didn't want to be a burden to the people who were being paid specifically to bring them stuff.

      I'm pretty indifferent to their music; if it's on I'll listen to it but I won't go out of my way to find it. But there are some truly awful people making legitimately terrible music and they deserve the hate far more than these guys. Everything I've heard about them suggests that they're just a great bunch of guys to know.
      Rush is apparently another band like that. Some great guys who just love what they do.

    For handing you a heart worth breaking
    And I've been wrong, I've been down
    Been to the bottom of every bottle (Ladies: That's right!)
    These five words in my head
    Scream, "Are we having fun yet?"
    Ladies: Hit the road Jack and don't you come back (Yet, yet)
    No more, no more, no more, no more (This is how you remind me)
    Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more
    Ray Charles: What you say?
    Nickelback: It's not like you didn't know that

    Interesting fact for this song: Ray Charles and Chad Kroger frequented a gentlemen's club. They were band mates at the time. They had a favorite server who was already friendly to both of them. Both Ray and Chad fancied that server and wanted to date her. This rivalry caused a schism in their friendship. It showed in this music.
    Tipping back then were not as high as we see today. It was usually in amounts of nickles and dimes. When the server ultimately decided to date Ray instead of Chad, that server gave Chad back his tips, a nickle, as a sign that she had chosen Ray over him. That ended the relationship between Ray and Chad. Chad went off to create his own band in memoriam of this event, Nickelback.

      ​@@ThereIRuinedIt The story is not true. In 1995, Village Idiot changed its name to Nickelback, which originated from the nickel in change that band member Mike Kroeger gave customers at his job at Starbucks; he would frequently say, "Here's your nickel back."
      Ray Charles was 65 by 1995 and he had a dozen children.

      @robertkeaney9905 11 месяцев назад +29

      He was probably helped out by the fact that the vocalist of Nickleback, Chad Kroeger, intentionally keeps a steady consistent tone and pitch through out his songs.
      So that he can focus on the delivery, and so that he can consistently give the same performance time after time.
      What this means, is that all of a his vocal lines for any particular song will generally have a consistent tone and pitch. So its a lot easier to Isolate his voice and manipulate it by bending then pitch.
      In contrast, some one like Chester Bennington or Brandon Urie won't be quite so easy to isolate or manipulate
