The New Best In Worst

I had something else to write about today, but I was stunned into writer's block by the sheer awfulness of the new Nickelback song.

It's a charming little love song called "Something In Your Mouth." It was an instantaneous reminder of why I didn't mind when the FM radio in my car went out for years.

Here's a quick peek at the chorus to this song.

You're rip'n up the dance floor honey
You shake your ass around for everyone
I love the way you dance with anybody
And tease them all by sucking on your thumb
You're so much cooler when you never pull it out
'Cause you look so much cuter with something in your mouth


I'm not even sure that counts as a double entendre. Don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming to have never owned an album that contained awful cock-rock songs. I lived through the glory days of hair metal, where everybody was so high and horny they wrote crap like "Cherry Pie" and "Pour Some Sugar On Me."

This is the kind of song, however, that makes "Unskinny Bop" look like "American Pie."

Yeah, that's pretty awful. I switched to Jazz years ago so I wouldn't have to subject myself to insipid lyrics like that.

Nickelback does suck, and the music in that particular song is a ripoff of a Cult song. I hope Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy run into those punks at a bar. No more Nickelback.
