The fact that it was covered and released again within a year further highlights the industries' desperation. It might not be "cookie-cutter" rap, but it is "cookie-cutter" rock.<BR/><BR/>I should also say that you might be the only person that I have heard to even imply that there is anything subtle about Hinder, so kudos for that.charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07555938634194223761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11994352.post-14746844161445190832007-03-01T04:41:00.000-05:002007-03-01T04:41:00.000-05:00Wow, somehow I am not surprised that I am the firs...Wow, somehow I am not surprised that I am the first one with the balls to commend on this posting. It is one thing to offer up a legitimate critique of the current state of the music industry (and I know every one of us has at least something to say about the poor state of said industry) however it is another thing to centralize your arguement completely around one artist and/or musical composition. No matter how objectionable the content of this work. <BR/><BR/>I have to state at this point that I, personally, find the song to be quite palatable. Where the song lacks in any (ANY) real message it does have a certain quality that is sadly missing from most of the sludge getting pumped our way by the music monarchy these days - the ability to not totally bludgeon your overt sensibilities in the first three seconds. <BR/><BR/>This is to say that it is, at least, not another cookie-cutter ganster wannabe piece of *bitch *ass *shit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
