Nickie Koskinen
"Rockstar" a song by Canadian rock band Nickelback, released as the fifth overall single from their fifth album, All the Right Reasons (2005). It was initially only released in the United States and Canada, and has since been re-released worldwide. The lyrics feature the hopes of someone who desires to be a rockstar. Spoken-word vocals between each verse are provided by Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top.
"Rockstar" is one of Nickelback's most popular singles to date, peaking at number two in the United Kingdom (their highest-charting single in that country) and being certified Platinum. It has also sold 4.5 million copies in the United States.[2]
According to the sheet music published at Musicnotes.com by Alfred Publishing, the song is written in the key of G major and is set in time signature of common time with a tempo of 76 beats per minute.[3]
In May 2020, Kirk Johnston, the guitarist for Texas rock band Snowblind Revival, sued Nickelback over the song's composition, which he believes is too similar to the Snowblind Revival song "Rock Star".[4] In August 2021, Johnston filed a lawsuit against Nickelback, Warner/Chappell Music, Roadrunner Records, and Live Nation for copyright infringement.[5]
Rolling Stone ranked "Rockstar" at number 100 in their list of the 100 best songs of 2007.[6] Aside from its praise from Rolling Stone and popularity, some have even labelled it one of the worst songs of all time.[7][8] "Rockstar" was listed at number 2 in BuzzFeed's list of the 30 worst songs ever written[9] The Guardian's Peter Robinson claimed that the song was "...a Smack the Pony skit without the laughter track; ironic, given that Rockstar is one of the most unintentionally hilarious songs of the last few years. It is also one of most confusing."[10]
As part of the January 2021 surge in popularity of the sea shanty form, the British Indie group The Lottery Winners produced a sea shanty version of "Rockstar" via the TikTok app; Nickelback subsequently collaborated with The Lottery Winners to release a full-length shanty version.[11]
During the song's original release, "Far Away" was more successful on the Billboard Hot 100 and U.S. pop charts, while "Rockstar" instead found moderate success on the rock charts. It peaked at number four on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, and number 37 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. It entered the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 54, during its original run.
The song was re-shipped to radio for ads on 5 June 2007, and a video was made to accompany the re-release. After its re-release, became active on most charts again, reaching new peaks on numerous charts like the Hot 100, the Adult Top 40, and Pop 100. It re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number forty-seven on week ending date July 7, 2007.[12] It also registered on charts it had previously failed to do on first release, such as the Pop 100 Airplay. "Rockstar" is now the band's best selling digital single to date in the United States, with digital sales there at 4,229,000 as of July 2013.[13]
On September 12, 2007, "Rockstar" reached a new peak of number six on the Billboard Hot 100, faring better than "Far Away". It became Nickelback's third Top 10 hit from All the Right Reasons, and their fifth career Top Ten on the Hot 100 overall. "Rockstar" reached its 3,000,000 downloads mark in the U.S. in May 2009 and became the best selling rock single of the 21st century before "How You Remind Me".[14]
When the song was first released in August 2006, a music video was not made for the single. Dori Oskowitz, who directed the band's "If Everyone Cared" video, returned to direct the music video for the song's re-release.[17]
The video features celebrities and anonymous people lip synching to the lyrics. The non-celebrities are filmed around the world, in front of iconic landmarks, such as Times Square, the Flatiron Building and Grand Central Station in New York City, Millennium Park and the Buckingham Fountain in Chicago, Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles, St Pauls and Tower Bridge in London, the Opera House and Harbour Bridge in Sydney, and the Brandenburger Tor, Checkpoint Charlie and Reichstag in Berlin.
I really love lisa. MONEY still is my favourite (2024 attendance). Rock star had sooo much to prove for the benchmark she had already set. I totally agree she slayyyyy when it comes to dance. But vocals have hell lot of filter that which is audible in this MV too. like this article say i here only baby iam rockstar over and over again. Lyrics wise totally disappointed, need more creativity or maybe atleast more words simple lines rather repeating same 4 words in the whole MV. FOR ME ITS 6/10 overall.
I agree. I think she is going to pursue music from Thailand at least for now with songs in English. Even her actions in the past was totally an attempt to get out of the K-pop mold. And I find absolute logic in that, why limit yourself when you have all that fame as capital.
"Rockstar" is a song by American rapper and singer Post Malone featuring British-American rapper 21 Savage. It was released on September 15, 2017, by Republic Records as the lead single from Malone's second studio album Beerbongs & Bentleys (2018). The song was written alongside Carl Rosen, Joey Bada$$, and producers Louis Bell & Tank God.[2][3][4][5]
The track received mixed reviews from music critics, and became the artists' most successful hit single to date, reaching number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, and reaching the top spot in several other countries, including Australia, Canada, Greece, Portugal, Romania, Ireland, New Zealand, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark and the United Kingdom. It became both Post Malone and 21 Savage's first number-one single in all the countries mentioned. The song was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Rap/Sung Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.
The now-private unofficial YouTube video for the track's audio, released by Republic Records, is a three-minute-and-38-second loop of solely the song's chorus.[6] Therefore, the song was able to receive equivalent downloads without featuring the entirety of the song, which some attributed to its number-one spot on the Hot 100.[7] Some called it a "clever marketing scheme", while others believed it was a trick or a loophole.[8]
The official music video, directed by Emil Nava, was released on Post Malone's Vevo YouTube channel on November 21, 2017.[9] The video features Post Malone in a room fighting against a gang of men with samurai swords, and ends with Post Malone and 21 Savage covered in blood.[10][11][12] Pitchfork noted that the video references the Japanese action film Lady Snowblood.[13] On June 23, 2022 after nearly 5 years on YouTube, the video hit 1 billion views.
The song reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming Post Malone and 21 Savage's first number-one song.[14] It debuted at number two behind Cardi B's "Bodak Yellow",[15] breaking the single week streaming record on Apple Music with over 25 million streams[16] becoming Post Malone's third top 20 hit, following his debut single, "White Iverson" and his second top 10 hit after "Congratulations". It stayed behind "Bodak Yellow" for three consecutive weeks before reaching the top spot in its fourth week.[14] "Rockstar" topped the Hot 100 for eight weeks, the longest run at number one for a hip hop song in 2017. After its eighth week at number one, it was knocked off by "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran and Beyonc.[17][18] The single has sold over 10,000,000 copies, being certified Diamond in the US.
In 21 Savage's native United Kingdom, "Rockstar" debuted at number five on the UK Singles Chart on September 22, 2017. The following week, it rose three places to number two, behind Sam Smith's "Too Good at Goodbyes",[20] before reaching the top of the chart on October 6, 2017.
"Rockstar" received mixed reviews from music critics. Spin.com reviewed the song's unofficial video by stating: "The chorus loop may be a weirdly hypnotic, post-Vine marketing gimmick, but it seems like it worked. "rockstar" is both Post Malone's and 21 Savage's first-ever No. 1 single, meaning this probably won't be the last time an artist attempts to boost a track by distilling its catchiest section into a standalone product. Maybe, in the future, we'll all listen to seconds-long hooks on endless extended loops."[21] Spin and Time both named the song one of the worst of 2017.[22][23]
On November 29, 2017, an unofficial Crankdat remix of the song was released on the Trap Nation channel on YouTube. On December 13, 2017, a Latin remix of the song featuring Dominican-Puerto Rican reggaeton artists Nicky Jam and Ozuna was released.[24] Another remix was released on December 22, 2017, featuring new verses from rappers Jadakiss and Nino Man.[25] On December 25, 2017, Lil Wayne released his remix of the song, titled "5 Star" featuring Nicki Minaj, as a single from his mixtape Dedication 6.[26] On January 23, 2018, American rapper Fetty Wap released his remix of the song.[27]
