Who's worse - Creed or Nickelback?, it's like trying to choose between vomit and diarrhea! Options

This poll is already making me sick...

I don't know what to tell you. I'm not saying Live's lyrics are worse, and I never did. I'd say SIYM and, say, the rap bit of Like a Soldier are on about the same level lyric wise. "Girl with the pretty pink thong" or a "song so good make a midget grow." At least one of those things is possible.

I'm not defending Nickleback (I can't stand them), I'm pointing out your hypocrisy regarding the statement about artists having 180 degree changes regarding lyrics. Micheal Stipe wrote "Shiny Happy People," Dylan wrote quite a few sappy love songs, Ed wrote V, Birds of Pray, and SFBM (and there are ALOT of songs on those albums which are just as bad. "Deep Enough," anyone? It's the same thing).

I'm sure Kroeger is not a good lyricist. I don't know for sure though, and I don't think you do either, judging from your response, so attacking him for liking the band was uncalled for, and then attacking me for pointing this out was uncalled for as well.

Grow a pair and accept that you made a simple mistake. I didn't want it to be a big deal, but I guess it was stupid for me to assume others on this site would accept their own hiccups.
