Wow, first time I've heard this, but also not surprised
I campaigned this idea that the 2 singles were the same since the second one came out, but none of my friends would listen! It's the same as all the other garbage out there right now. The record execs are taking a formula that works (and at one point was good) and they're multiplying it. It's a ridiculous, albeit effective way of making money for themselves and making suckers of everyone else. It really makes me angry. It's honestly bands like this and other the other ripoff bands that are contributing to the death of rock&roll. Call me dramatic, I don't care. Making music used to be about so much more than selling records and being famous and now, that's all it is. Makes me sick, I tells ya. There's really only a handful of artists out there that don't sound fundamentally exactly like the guy beside them, but other than that, it's just "Hmm, how can I write a song that will crack the Top 40?"
