Tunezz: Guilty Pleasure

The vast expanse of the musical world is often overwhelming to me. There are hundreds of thousands of bands in America all with names so hip that you might not even be cool enough to listen to their music.

Those that do seem to have a grasp, or even a clue, on how to navigate this musical expanse would likely be the same to judge me for what I hope to be a series of posts overtime.

Tunez: Guilty Pleasure are songs that I know I shouldn't like because of their cheese factor, pop associations, general lack of artistry, etc. Unfortunately, they're catchy for one reason or another and therefore I will jam them obsessively.

With that said, I present to you, Nickelback- Far Away. (And, to make matters worse, I've embedded a YouTube video of the song over clips from The Notebook.) Enjoy!



(Amanda will be out of town for a few days so I plan to listen to this song on repeat while sobbing uncontrollably all over Vincent and Darla. You think I'm joking...)

  2. You know, You know, You know this music is terrible. It plays off of your brain's willingness to take a simple hook and simple words and swish'em around up there for a couple hours 'til you're delerious enough to buy and album, therefore perpetuating the neverending cycle of bad music. If it were not for Creed, Nickelback would be the worst band in the world. See also: Canada's contributions to American society.
