From metafilter:


How you remind me of someday.

What you are hearing is Nickelback's "Someday" in your left speaker and "How you remind me in the right".

Funny how plug-n-play the formula is...

This is the formula of POON TANG...can you imagine? How much unadulterated POON these guys are getting for mastering this formula?

incredi-poon.

And I'm sure they are laughing all the way to the back of the tour bus everynight with 5-7 stupid fly chicks who are completely oblivious to the formula. Because they ARE a PART of the formula!

"This is how you remind me of why I play these dumb songs!"
"Someday, somehow I'm gonna stop getting laid but not right now!"

It's a stroke of poontastical genious!

BUT, I hate it, because the rest of the world has to listen to the same recycled crap and not be able to reap the rewards. I only listen to the radio for TALK! THATS IT, TALK...NO MUSIC...because the music they play completely blows ass.

I was gonna say something about this a while ago but it slipped my mind. Nickelback's Someday was one of the 10 songs that looped everyday on the chairlifts in Niseko so I heard it many, many, many, many times. I actually was happy when it came one because all of the other songs on the playlust were even worse. But I had plenty of time to break it down.

There are no verses. Just 2 choruses. The damn song goes Chorus 1, Chorus 2, Chorus 1, Chorus 2, Guitar Solo, Chorus 1, Chorus 2. That is it. No changes.

It is the most unimaginitive crap. But catchy!
