Who here owns this album?



Reminds me of the Spice Girls. They sold millions but I don't know anybody who admits to owing an album by them.....

It's time for me to come out of the closet.  I owned the first Spice Girls album......all because of that damn "Say You'll Be There" song.  Damn you, damn you all.  But I'm finally free.  no

My 15 year old listens to this band. Parents need to step up and quit purchasing crap for their kids. I would probably buy this for her if she persisted, but we have an agreement- before I spend my hard earned money on music, the band has to play their own instruments and/or write their own songs.

LOL. My kid is totally out of touch with the current music scene, she thinks she is living in the 80's.  Grin

I don't think anyone is arguing that.  But Nickelback is essentially the poster-band of generic, corporate rock.

1 part catchy
1 part "gravely" male vocal
...and so forth.

well I guess 6 million people can't be wrong.....I like Nickelback...not necessarily one of my favorites, but they are a good band. They also tour very sucessfully and put on a good show.
