Fair enough.

Now Coldplay sucks ass too. Good job, Chris.

Ha! I don't like a damn think Nickelback shiats out and there's plenty of coldplay I don't care for, but I do like whatever the name of their latest overplayed song.

They already sucked ass. I hate them both and now I don't feel bad about it.

OOOooooo... sorry, the correct answer is B) They suck. Thanks for playing Chris, it's been fun.

I have done things in my life.

Listening to Nickelback was one of them.

Now I only desire the sweet embrace of death.

This is like Pauly Shore defending Carrot Top.

 
assegai 2008-10-02 12:09:06 PM  
How can anyone like Nickelback? I thought that was universally agreed upon. I don't necessarily agree with berating them but I thought it was a common knowledge that they're terrible and hoped they just faded away with the rest of the one hit wonders.

 
Katalyst 2008-10-02 12:09:44 PM  
I like how he says the haters "have never done fark all in their life".

Yeah. Sorry we can't all make huge contributions to society by singing little songs.

Some of us have to work in hospitals saving lives etc...

 
xxBirdMadGirlxx 2008-10-02 12:12:06 PM  
Okay, I knew eventually I would have to make this confession: I don't care for Coldplay overall, but Viva la Vida and Violet Hill aren't bad songs and the videos for them are kind of cool.

Even if Chris Martin dances like his feet have been nailed to the floor.

I would still take Coldplay over Nickelback's anyday, which may very well be the definition of damning with faint praise.

Oh, I know lots of people that like Nickelback. My 14 year old daughter, her friends, and....... oh. nevermind.

This is like W endorsing Palin as an intelligent, well-read candidate.

 
davion2308 2008-10-02 12:16:03 PM  
I heard songs from both of them on the radio. Aren't they the same guys with two different band names?

 
FeedTheCollapse 2008-10-02 12:17:54 PM  
Coldplay is better than Nickleback, but Coldplay still sucks.


crap endorsing shiat.

 
JDerek 2008-10-02 12:20:58 PM  
Wait, I thought the only people who actually like Nickelback are the ones who "have never done fark in all their life."

 
BigSnatch [TotalFark] 2008-10-02 12:22:21 PM  
So basically:

One cannot have an opinion on a band/musician until one is more successful than said band/musician.


I wonder what Martin's Fark handle is...

 
NeuroticRocker [recently expired TotalFark] 2008-10-02 12:22:43 PM

I guess he's never been introduced to all the professional musicians/part-time music critics here on Fark.

It's easy to like nickleback. Just don't listen to anything after "The State" was released.

How do people's lack of accomplishment (whatever the fark that vacuous statement even means) negate the fact that Coldplay and Nickleback suck balls? Also, let me add Creed to that list just for good measure?

The1andonlyZack 2008-10-02 12:38:05 PM  
I didn't look and see if somebody said this but..

IT TAKES SUCK TO KNOW SUCK CHRISSY!

Now Coldplay and Nickelback can go off to Canada or England and get married and leave the US alone!

...I'm against lame ass band same-sex marriages.

/If Chris and Chad want to get married in the US thats okay as long as they retire from music first.

Makes sense. Both bands only have one song that they keep publishing under different titles.

Oh, but the fans of the band...they are obviously very well accomplished in their lives right? They must be to be fans... Chris, you can't have it both ways. The fans and the haters are just as unaccomplished as each other.

Way to insult your fans too, bud.

You play music.


You contribute nothing productive to society in anyway.

I've given up on the whole Nickelback hating thing. There are more important things in this life to hate.

If you don't like, just change the farking channel. Failing that, put on a CD. It's not that hard. If you really get that angry over a band's success, you have some issues to work out.

/doesn't hate Nickelback
//doesn't love Nickelback

My opinion is they're the same phenomenon as Linkin Park. Every god damned song sounds exactly the same. Same with that bald douche who lost at American Idol.

You are clearly not a true Farker. Please leave and take your logical reasoning and crazy scaled-response/reaction theories with you.

Sounds more like he is talking about Farkers.
