Wow, that top five is crap. It's bad enough that Nickelback is number one, but did it have to be their worst song? And how the hell did they beat out Velvet Revolver? Good lord. VR and Jet are the only good bands in the top ten. Oh and AB being on the list is good too...

I agree with VR and Jet being the only good bands in the top 5, Crossfade isn't bad either. Style over substance. You don't have to be good, or skilled, at what you do to be a big hit rockstar anymore.

Unfortunately this is so true!

Nobody even uses the term "rockstar" anymore. It's a lost art, being a rockstar.

It can't really be the number of times the song was played..... if it was then songs that came out early in the year would be on top, unless they put the data in some kind of equation that would produce a percentage that would be comparable with percentages of other songs......... but i'm sure that songs like The Reason and Broken would have had a higher percentage of the airways than Cold by Crossfade...... i'd like to know how they ranked the songs.

Dang. VR was the only decent band on their and I don't even like them very much.

My faith in mainstream music is lost. Even mainstream rock now sucks. Or at least, the stuff that gets all the publicity. NICKLEBACK? Give me a break.

Totally agree with that. I hate Nickelback.

I like Nickelback!

Although "I like your pants around your feet..." is kinda lame, no content at all... but it's still good for a laugh.

I think that's the song that turned me against them for good. I actually liked a few of their songs, but when I heard that song, I hated them from that point on. Of course, I don't hate them as much as I hate Outkast or Ashlee Simpson.

god, ashlee is horrible! i watched her tv show the other nite, just to see what it was about. what a load of shit! she just needs to give up her little singing career. it's not working out for her. isn't good enough to sing live, gets booed at a football game (and a big one, at that). you gotta realize when your 15 minutes are up!

It's so sad that Ashlee sold over a million records in less than a week, with no true talent and singing songs that other people wrote.

I know! Meanwhile, talented acts like Alter Bridge sell 105,000 copies in their first week. Sure shows what kind of taste most people have when it comes to music.
