The funny here is that the majority of people who are "huge fans" of Nickelback don't like Country. Remember, folks. Covers of songs don't HAVE TO be the exact same as the original, otherwise it would be stupid. I think this song is really good, not as good as the original, yeah, but that's no reason to call this "shit".
@Valientherox ppl like to pass judgment on covers anyway..its retarded.and ive heard many diff. songs that Travis has covered..eagles,skynyrd,ray charles,hank jr...he has a way of doing covers especially rock covers very well and making them his own..that says alot about an artist that can do that..and hes a hell of a singer to begin with.in short tho i agree with yer comment. just wanted to add my 2 cents lol
Songwriters, like everyone else, want to make money. The more singers in various genres do your song, the more chance you have of someone buying an album with your song on it. It's not surprising to hear the same song done by really different seeming artists.
One thing most fans don't get it is that most musicians have wide & varied tastes outside their own genre. So while the average fan might say, "Ew, that song was ruined," the musicians are busy expanding their horizons...& their fan base.
Both versions are good. I am big fan of Travis Tritt and Nickleback. Travis Tritt is a great singer and songwriter. Chad is a great singer and songwriter. Rock on guys
Holy crap this is the best version ever Nickelback sucks buttcrack they let themselves get played out nice to hear a fresh better version. Hell Yeah Travis treat the most underrated country singer in our era!!
This sucks. This sucks. This sucks. This is proof that Nickelback is turning to a country/mainstream radio peice of shit. If anyone heard Curb or ever Hesher, you would see what great potential they had as a heavy metal/grunge band. But they threw it away.
Obviousley Im a huge Nickelback fan. But this dude did a pretty good job. Obviously since Nickelback's is the original its gunna be better but he did a good job
he made unique which is the main thing kinda like it, but im a massive nickelback fan so i was bound to be a little one sided when i say nickelbacks version is way better. but i like version too :)
I'm a HUGE Nickelback fan, but this is a seriously kick ass version. So for those of you who are tripping over yourselves trying to tear down one singer or the other, get the hell over it!
Quit bitchin' y'all...both versions Nickelback n Travis Tritt r good in their own rights...just quit having these pissin' contests n sit back n enjoy geez
i like this one better...i like nickleback but it means more comin from a guy like this instead of a rocker...whether this song is true to him or not i dont know...but its more believable from travis
while thats true...i mean in the way hes singing it...chad just seems pissed whereas travis dosnt yell...its just my preferance in music i guess...i dont feel as much from rock as i do from country because of the style
@fasterthanyou187 i agree with bigdog but you have to listen to what the song is about would you be happy in this situation i am a hardcore nickelback fan thats all i listen too but i also think this guy did a pretty good job puttin his own unique style too it
if you think nickelback is better than why are you here lol like the rest of use listen to some real music for a change travis is a fantastic singer............:)
Mmm...I like Country, guys. I LOVE country; but this isn't my favorite. I prefer the original version. Nickelback is just one of those bands that lose it's appeal when made country..x:
Travis Tritt lends a good southern quality to any song he does. No disrespect to Nickleback, but this is a wonderful song for Travis to lend his rendition of. I love it!
OK! So its ok you the rock people to use counrty music songs and make them into their own but its not ok for country people? That makes no sence once so ever! I listen to nickleback as well and I think he as well and travis tritt both do a good job.
if you have myspace go on the nickelback page click on the album # 8 or buy the cd. Travis tritt did a nice job, but Nickelback is way better, cause chad wrote it, he can feel the song
The only modern country artist I've heard that isn't totally cookie-cutter or bubblegum like the jokes on the charts today. Tritt is like the modern version of Waylon and Hank Jr. He isn't afraid to put his music across with some grit and feeling.
Nothing bad for tritt, but NO ONE can slay this song like Chad Kroeger. If you have not heard the accoustic version he does, it will put chill bumps on you.
This is an awesome song...it was awesome when nickelback did it and its awesome now...I haven't heard a cover travis tritt has done that i didn't like...truly a talented man
I love travis and nickleback and personally travis did a hell of a better job then nickleback, there's less shit behind him so u hear more of him and less clashing of instraments
2 of 2)Many of us have spelling problems BUT I think the rest of us understood what kbowelly was trying to say, it's too bad you felt the need to be so condescending and arrogant in your attempt to correct kbowelly. Maybe you could need some more "schoolin' " yourself.
He speed the song up some, bravo Travis. Keep rockin' on bro. Good cover, try a good CREED song next time. Just please do not kill it though, they are my favorite band.
dude, dude! That's so cool! I love Nickelback AND Travis Tritt and its soooo cool that he sang one of their songs! Isn't it? My dad used to sing me T.T. all the time too. :D Ah, good memories.

(1 of 2)scutevi0lencex, you need to get your spelling straight before you try to correct someone else.
The word is spelled songwriter not song writer, there is no space between the two words.
THEN, the correct way to write, refer to or spell the word "songwriter" is singer-songwriter OR singer/songwriter.
