The lyrics are again as cringy as ever, but I kinda liked the production work on this.

I want to give them the benefit of doubt because Dumb Song was decent, but this is back to the bad stuff, unfortunately. Not as bad as their other charters but... bad.

I think it's his vocals, which critics might describe as over-the-top "cutesiness", like he's singing to a newborn.
Chad Kroeger (in different styles and octaves) also gets panned for this and I think that also definitely contributes to some of the "negativity" toward Nickelback (though I believe they, like AJR, deserve their fair share - and I'm glad to see there are supporters of both around these parts).
This is lyrically quite good and isn't over the top like a lot of their recent Top 10s.

never heard Chad Kroeger vocals get panned for cutesiness. althoughI might have misunderstood you. To be clear I don't hate "cutesi" vocals tones. At least not in females, but a grown man with these tones is some kind of audible torture you know.

I meant that Chad just gets panned (in some circles, I believe) for his vocals in general...but I wasn't comparing his vocal style to AJR....just that they are similarly grating for those audiences.

Alt used to love having crossover hits, but blocked top 40 pop radio songs like Yes I’m a Mess, Stick Season, Seasons, Not The 1975, (maybe) Blame Brett from going top 10 alt. I guess the last 2 aren’t really done yet, but the bullets aren’t there for it.
