Covid Island Discs

Day 121: Should’ve have listened, Nickelback

Never really understood why so many people hate Nickelback. I like this tune again because its lyrics tell a story. This film clip is clearly captured at one of their concerts by one of their fans on a low quality mobile phone. Yet what is impressive is how close their sound is to the original studio album performance. Always an impressive feat in my view because it shows the original album was not over-produced with auto-tune and other post production tricks.

If you click on the Playlist Video for Week 18 (top right of this page) you will be taken to a single video which allows you to play each song in this week's list one after the other. Alternatively, if you watch my own video summary below of this week's songs at the end of the video two playlist links will appear. The one on the left hand side will take you to the video playlist for this week while the one on the right will take you to a single video playlist that allows you to play the complete Covid Island Discs collection for all the currently completed weeks so far — well over 200 songs and counting!
