Rate the songs from your best of band Spotify playlists

Here's a thread where you can rank one of the best of band playlists you've made on Spotify, track by track! Give a brief description of each track (5 sentences max) and then rate them. I'll start with a band that's "not metal enough" to be in this site but still I used to enjoy with a few moments of metal while staying rock; Nickelback, the "pineapple pizza" of the rock/metal community. Here's the link to my playlist for you to listen along (or not): https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3cYEIIIDDVEeBp3eeHVYHU

1. Curb - 3/5

This isn't too bad for an earlier song. Lead singer Chad Kroeger has more focus and sincerity than new works.

2. Fly - 3.5/5

Nice song and the band's first single. It's about Kroeger's young self wondering about bad people going to Hell.

3. Breathe - 3/5

The songs in The State sound a bit like cheap rip-offs of other bands, with this one being too similar to Fuel...

4. Cowboy Hat - 2.5/5

...And this one sounding too much like a country-style Silverchair.

5. Leader of Men - 3/5

Slightly better but still not impressive enough. Maybe it wasn't so blandly familiar!

6. Old Enough - 3.5/5

This one deserves some more points for its inclusion in the second Blair Witch movie and its soundtrack.

7. Never Again - 4/5

The lyrics of spousal abuse and a bit of swearing my parents wouldn't let me listen to when I was 11 (half of my current age) are still a bit strong, but it really kickstarts the intense rock.

8. How You Remind Me - 4.5/5

This is how Nickelback reached mainstream audiences with thunderous mid-tempo rock in this thick brooding track. 20 years and still a big hit. 10 years and still an amazing rock track for me!

9. Woke Up This Morning - 3/5

I stayed up this night and got my hopes up for this?! At least the killer rock is still on...

10. Too Bad - 3.5/5

Still familiar but quite a pounder, with lyrics of Kroeger looking back at his absent father figure.

11. Someday - 4/5

I'm kinda glad I chose this song because it kept the playlist more interesting for me.

12. Because of You - 4.5/5

Same with this one being a pounding anthem with great vocals, guitars, and drums. Now I wish I could've listened to this song during that small phase of mine...

13. See You at the Show - 3/5

Average, not as spectacular as those previous two. See you in the next album...

14. Animals - 3.5/5

Not too bad, a fun upbeat song to rock on.

15. Savin' Me - 4/5

This one sounds more similar to "How You Remind Me", but that's OK because they're both great songs, though this one has slightly too much drama.

16. Side of a Bullet - 4.5/5

Now this is a killer hard rock/metal tune, written in memory of Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrell, with a guitar solo sampled from that man himself. Rock on, guys!! RIP Dimebag

17. Rockstar - 3/5

This sarcastic-sounding ballad has a fine sense of humor that isn't too discernible.

18. Burn It to the Ground - 3.5/5

Chugging along like a train is this groovy song that almost tributes again to Pantera with its "Walk"-like pace.

19. Gotta Be Somebody - 4/5

Despite sounding too close to a country band like Lonestar, the rock is still there in an optimistic fashion to create a cool anthem for the ages.

20. Shakin' Hands - 4/5

This is one of the catchiest songs by this band, despite being about a vixen stripper from a Poison song.

21. If Today Was Your Last Day - 4.5/5

In between fast-ish assaults is another brooding ballad-ish song, a streak continuation after the nearly equally amazing singles that end their titles with "Me".

22. This Means War - 5/5

Of all the Nickelback songs I've chosen for this playlist, this is my absolute favorite with low-tuned guitar heaviness slicing more than the ultimate blade fight. Well what can I say, this is really metal, as much as the music I would listen to years after my first encounter with the song. HORNS UP!!!

23. When We Stand Together - 4.5/5

After that, the tuning goes an octave higher and softer for a melodic anthem of social consciousness for rock fans to enjoy (or not).

24. Lullaby - 3/5

Well, back to Kroeger's lovey-dovey ballads, though this is still beautiful...

25. Trying Not to Love You - 2.5/5

...Unlike this one, which sounds like a slower throwback to "Cowboy Hat", and equally bad too.

26. Edge of a Revolution - 3/5

An attempt to take politics but ends up sounding muddied. I appreciate the lyrics of revolution though.

27. What Are You Waiting For? - 2.5/5

Way too much of a poppy tune, as bad as the unchosen "Photograph". Anything worse than this?

28. Get 'Em Up - 2/5

Disco, country, and pop, blended f***ing together. This boring sh*t-mix should not be a thing at all...

29. Feed the Machine - 4/5

The strong title track to Nickelback's currently latest album that marks a return to some of their heaviness, with the addition of industrial beats, tight djenty riffs, and an edgy breakdown. H*ll yeah!!

30. Song on Fire - 2.5/5

After promising ambient tones, the track turns into painfully emotional country. A bad letdown worth skipping...

31. The Betrayal (Act III) - 2.5/5

Yes, ACT 3!!! There's no Act 2, and Act 1 is just an outro. At least we can consider this the second-heaviest song by the band (besides "This Means War") with riffs and breakdowns a bit like Dimebag gone Meshuggah, but still nowhere near the best.

32. The Betrayal (Act I)

I'll skip giving this one a rating because it's a symphonic outro to the album and playlist, not worth mentioning.

And finally, if you're wondering about why I didn't choose a few of their other greatest hits like "Photograph", "Figured You Out", and "This Afternoon"... Yeah, I remembered listening to those songs when I was younger and not liking them. Knowing that my present self will put them down hard, I left them out. Anyway, my Nickelback playlist is a solid one with ups and downs, at least for me anyway, and its total rating shall be 3.5/5.

Now it's your turn! Share what you think of this playlist, or your own best-of band playlists that you feel like sharing, and briefly describe the songs one by one (no more than 5 sentences) with ratings. Enjoy!

Rate your own playlists?  What?  Why?

But you've added the songs?  Nobody makes rubbish playlists with songs they don't like?

Anyway, clearly a niche thing I don't understand so will leave this as my only involvement in this thread.
