Chad Kroeger of Nickelback talks to VOA's Larry London about performing at the Olympics, the band's hectic tour schedule and why he likes collaborating with other artists
Gorgeous man. So down to earth, humble & has a great sense of humour. Can't understand why so people hate Nickelback. They say their songs all sound the same or they are all about sex, drinking or whatever. They're just about having fun, nothing wrong with that. They also write great ballads, love songs & songs about everyday life. All the idiots leaving negative comments need to get a sense of humour or get a life and stop watching Nickelback videos if they supposedly hate them so much.
Nickelback is Amazing, every album they release is amazing!! they never fail to impress!! every song is catchy and killer!! it feels like every song is like a single because the songs are just pure amazing.
@@Ztrain360 How bout that one song on his Band "Theory Of A Deadman" where he bashed homeless people for begging in the streets. Claiming that Chad is a "hard worker" fucking bitch makes millions doing gigs that require no kind of work at all besides singing. Oh big deal. Douchebag.
I love how he isn't all 'Oh I love being on the stage all the time and I wish I could be there 24/7' but he admit that there are days where he really doesn't want to be there. To me, that makes an artist more... Human for lack of a better word
Y do ppl always have 2 make negative comments? The only 1 that can judge is God & u will all b judged the same way‼️ I'm proud of Nickleback bcuz we come from the same province Alberta 🇨🇦‼️😎🎩🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
"If Everyone Cared" - a beautiful message to the world! One of my fav. As long as you can... keep donating and going the right way... keep somebody in this world thinking that "everyone cares"! Thanks!
Congraulations Nickelback, no matter what ever happens in this world, you should all be proud of your achievements, and the generosity that you guys have given & showned to others
I´m so glad that Nickelback are involved in charity. I thought they didn´t do anything like that even though I know Ryan´s wife has her own foundation...You guys ROCK!
I honestly don't get why so many people hate him SO much. He's just doing his own thing, havin fun, enjoying what he does. And he's not doing anything wrong or hurting anybody. Yeah he's rich but why do you give a rats ass. If you don't like his music then that's your problem, but especially don't hate him just cause he's rich and famous..I mean really.
To the haters : Why did you type Nickelback in the search box? You say you hate them but you waste your time writing comments on their videos. Nickelback don't really give a f*** about their haters:) Nickelback is awesome
Well al i have to say is that i'm so excited about seeing them live down under in November this year (2012) that my hair is doing the Diana Ross thing. I reeeeeeeeally hope the drummer does his solo. That'll knock everyone's socks off for sure. And as for Chad's hair, well it's not really the point now is it?
@q66h Yah probably, When people do on camera interviews they wear makeup for compensation for the camera lighting. Everybody like news and late night comedians wear makeup on camera
I'm not a fan, but I'm making a comic book where Kroeger is one of the superpowered characters. His persona is "The Pepperoni," and his arch nemesis is Tony Hawk.
Chad-You R Amaizing! I don't go gagga over many, but this guy is really great. Nickelback is great! He is talented, smart and funny, who can actually laugh @ himself! The songs they sing are all about life, deal with it! I really think the people who don't like them, need to just move on! Find something U do like. Cause as for me, I like this guy & Nickelback!
don't throw us under the bus chad! We are canadian... you are,,.... blehh congrats on your tasteless music tour. Man I wish i had your coin! THUMBS UP!
How am I stupid for thinking he actually cares if people hate him? EVERYONE has someone who doesn't like them, why would he care when millions of people DO like him and his band? He's a millionaire. If I were him I would give 2 shits less if someone hated me. So you don't like me or my band, so what? He's rich!
@littlezebra69 Ah, I SO agree!! I have 2 rockstar crushes, Roy Khan, and Chad Kroeger. But Chad is so much more of a real person, and that's the best part of his charm. He is a sexy beast!
They are not a bad band for what they are pop rock. There is nothing wrong with that they sell albums and make money and yeah some of the things they do are immature but who really cares. The music sells.
6 weeks to write a song! wow! well i guess it explains why Nickelback produces such amazing meaningful lyrics! :P i'll bet Justin(e) Bieber's song "baby" didnt take that long!...probably 6 minutes...if that! lol Nickelback all the way!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
@Bloated29Raptor Wow someone with some intelligence! I agree. Metallica from 1984-1993 was just phenomenal. After that during Load and Reload, they were just alright. They still had some little metal medleys here 'n there but, St Anger was just a "What the fuck" move. I mean its great if your not a fan of there music and for the time it was the only half decent thing out by anyone (Which is fucking awful to say). Then Magnetic came out and it was better but, they still haven't gotten there.
Their older material is good stuff, no doubt. The new stuff not so much... Looks like they decided to quit making quality tunes & go after the $. It's a shame.
HAHAHA Chad looks like that jamaican guy with the dreadlocks from the shampoo ad AFTER he washes his hair....except not black and more gay looking. Nickelback is awesome though, best live band on earth.
Your age shows. He's laughing all the way to the bank and funny thing is, I'm not a huge fan, just stating a fact. WHAT DOES HE CARE? He's rich. Don't be jealous.
