I'm shocked at the amount of hate this board has for Nickelback... and they're Canadian to boot.
Somone made an interesting point that Bono likes Destiny's Child and Jay Z... why would Nickelback be any different from that crowd.
Maybe in the UK, Razorlight has hit it big but I haven't heard of them making a big impact in the US. I consider myself in the know/ up to date with the American music scene b/c I read Rolling Stone and have a subscription to Entertainment Weekly.
Maybe, Bono wanted to get back in good graces with Zane by mentioning a somewhat obscure band such as Razorlight cuz y'know it ain't cool to like Nickelback.
Again maybe Bono thinks Nickelback makes the same quality of music as Radiohead, Coldplay, Oasis, and the Killers. I think that "You Remind Me" song has a nice little solo.
