Is "All Summer Long" by Kid Rock the worst song ever written?

This piece of garbage actually won a Grammy.

But he makes people happy man...

Kid Rock pays off $81,000 worth of layaways at Nashville Walmart

The layaway customers, who have been coming into the store as a result of Rock's gesture, were wearing shocked and smiling faces, Meyer said. Each one is being handed a card explaining that Kid Rock made the payment on their behalf, he said.

They did not have enough money for both rent and the toys they had put on layaway at the Dickerson Pike store, said Autumn Nuccio, as she waited for Walmart staff to grab her items.

Autumn and Woody Nuccio want to make sure Kid Rock knows how grateful they are for his generosity. Without him, the parents would not be able to give their three young children presents for Christmas this year.

"It's such a burden lifted off of our shoulders knowing that our kids will have Christmas," said Autumn Nuccio, who works at the Walmart location.

This would be a nice thing to do if I had Sakimano $$.....

WTF is wrong with you?? Great song. I can listen to it on loop. I bet you think Die Hard is a Christmas movie.

Things totally rhymes with things. Genius.

Yes. Absolute trash song. I hate it and I hate people like Nordic.

Open your crusty ass heart to love and find happiness like Nigel and Turtleneck did....

Question before I decide to click and listen to it. Which iteration of Kid Rock is this song: Kid Rock the rap star, Kid Rock the Country star or Kid Rock the rock star? TIA

I think it's Kid Rock "the lyrics in under 5 minutes" years.

Never heard it.

You're not missing anything. Although it is partially about being up north, and I know how much you love being up north.

Classic mix of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Warren Zevon. Great lyrics. Reminds me of my summers in the northern lower peninsula (not to be confused with "Up North", which it is not).

I mean it’s bad but catchy

See this is where people are clueless. It's not a classic mix of..... It's a mix of classic..... With lyrics that are dumb. For instance...I'm willing to bet any amount of money that kid Rock never caught a single walleye off a dock. But hey it rhymes with rocks...

Fixed.

I don’t care about LS, and the song is complete shit. This has been decided. Since none of the video was filmed in the northern lower, it does not remind me of the northern lower.

I think kid rock and his boys love the water and boats and fishing.
I really do.

Song sucks.

When I first heard that tune I almost got physically sick. When I tried to imagine what kind of people it appealed to, I got sicker.

It also took the formula from something else and mutated it, so pretty good analogy actually.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Sun 9 Dec 2018 - 14:31

I saw Tyler Perry did the same thing.

Serious question - why in 2018 are people still using layaway? What is the point? Can't you just wait until you have enough money to buy whatever it is you want and if they don't have it in stock anymore at Wal Mart you can go to Target or Amazon?

Most use it to make payments. The item is there and held for you so it doesn't sell out and you can pay for it in installments. If you're on a really tight budget it's a way to finance purchases.

Is it also without interest? Is that why people don’t use a credit card for it?

How could they charge you interest for it? They are holding it until you have enough to pay for it. That would be pretty shitty.

I would guess not, I really don't know. And keep in mind you're talking about a group that mostly doesn't have/use credit cards. I know there are people up here that struggle to have enough "extra" money to buy gifts. It's why the local clubs/groups try to help with presents/food so everyone has a Christmas.

Edited to add: From Walmart's website....has to be paid by tomorrow. I'm assuming so they can sell the stuff to others if you don't buy it.

Is the song about putting stuff on layaway at Wall-Mart?

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Sun 9 Dec 2018 - 16:04

I think so Bob. Only in summer though.

so pool noodles, jean shorts and lawn dart sets?

I assume they had to wait all summer long to get them out of layaway?

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** Sun 9 Dec 2018 - 16:12

If I understand things correctly, those items are available year round in Alabama.

Lauderdale County is in north Alabama. I suspect they have a Wal-Mart.

Holy shit. There are more of you. I just assumed most of you grew up in Michigan. Wow. I feel like I don't even know you people.

I remember the first kid rock Nordic. My friend had a Walkman and listened to that crap all the time. I’m from Michigan

Living in Michigan is the problem with the song Nordic. Was it a bad song the first time I heard it? I honestly can’t remember. But now, 10 years later, God for fucking bid that you accidentally go to a bonfire with someone like you who wants to hear it on repeat. Cause you will. Over and over again. And you heard it 3 times on the radio on your way to the bonfire. And you will do so every summer for the rest of your life until you mercifully die and think you never have to hear that song again. But then you get to hell. And your personal hell is listening to that song on repeat over and over for eternity. Which will feel oddly comfortable because that’s basically just any warmish month in Michigan anyway.

It was released the exact same year that iPhones came out.
