Does this song ["All Summer Long"] blow?

[bassrique]

So I'm driving around the other day and decided to do something i don't usually do, and that's turn on terrestrial radio.

Anyway, this thing comes on the radio with two borrowed groves ["Werewolves of London" and "Sweet Home Alabama"] mushed into one your description here song.

Here's the vid of Kid Rock's "All Summer Long":

I think I'll make a poll out of this.

Listen to Daughtry's "It's not over" and Fuels "Hemmorage (In my hands)"

It's disgusting how much Chris Daughtry ripped that off.

Mediocre, but doesn't blow.

I can place the latter song, but will need a refresher on the former.

I'm not voting yet, as I'm feeling very biased right now to create a "bleeding out my ears" choice.

It does indeed blow. KR should be slapped for this. So unoriginal, such a naked grab for the lowest common denominator. I almost couldn't believe it, the first time I heard it. Thank goodness it's not by somebody I like! I hope that the artists I like wouldn't touch that piece of dung with a 10-foot pole.
And what blows even more is that at Friday's gig, our singer said we need to "learn" it, because folks are asking for it.
No. No we don't need to, not if we want the bass player to stay in the band.

Yeah I think it's a pretty terrible song. Overproduced, not very original. Although I think it's cool how Werewolves in London and Sweet Home Alabama go together well. But not with Kid Rock singing over it, standing next to it, or even being in the same county as it.

^This; & if you need an official vote from me, you'll need to add the 'carrots' option.
