Rock Star was cool....Come on with Billy Gibbons as the "voice asking the questions"!!! You cant get much cooler than that
The fact that Ted Nugent was in their video was enough for me to swear them off for life. I cannot stand that man.

....eh....at the end of the day though, critics don't know about music anymore than the average guy does. I take that back...the average guy probably knows a helluva lot more.
They do have songs that make the lite and easy stations and those are the songs I like the least.Other bands have done that in the past like Journey ,Foreigner,Styx and REO Speedwagon.Those songs are always their worst songs for me.They pick their poppy ballads instead of their rock songs.I guess they are more commercial friendly
And having the Nuge in their video makes me like them even more.Uncle Ted Rules.
Well were the lite rock stations actually playing Journey and REO in the day? I was always under the impression that the reputations as a "rock band" scared them away from Streisand and Manilow fans. But now that those who grew up in the 80's are todays mini-van driving soccer moms (Nickelback and Daughtry's largest audience), times have changed enough that "Lite 106" type stations don't mind playing something a little heavier because the 45 year old soccer moms of 2011 who grew up on that stuff can handle their a little more rock in their "soft rock" than the 45 year old soccer moms from 1981.
