I"m Sorry, But...

Is Nickleback serious? No, for real. Are they even a real band??
This morning, I was listening to the Eric and Kathy this morning (don't you judge me. I don't have cable yet) and this song assaulted my stereo:

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know, you know, you know

[CHORUS]
I love you
I've loved you all along
And I missed you
far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
Cause you know, you know, you know

[CHORUS]

So far away
(So far away)
far away for far too long
So far away
(So far away)
For far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
(I love you)
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
(and I forgive you)
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me never let me go
Keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me never let me go
(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me never let me go
(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me never let me go

Ok, is it JUST me? Did a guy actually write this song? I mean, I'm all for the sensitive ponytail-guy, but COME ON!! I cannot for one hot minute believe that someone in the band didn't say,
"Dude. Um, Really?"
There is just WAAAAAAAAY too much "feeling" happening in this song. WAY too much.
And that's why I believe that this band, like many others (Sugar Ray being another suspect) are a manufactured-by-whitebread grown-ups for the sole purpose of making money off teenage girls and stupid people.
I know it's not a new phenomenon...it's just never up and slapped me in the face this hard before.
That is all.

Give or take a slightly broader demographic, you've perfectly encapsulated our entire economic system.

Oh, and SOLELY because of those Eric and Kathy billboards where they pretend they're Pink and Bono doppelgangers? You are SO judged.
