Dear Kid Rock

[GreenDoberman]

Mr. Rock,
As if "Sweet Home Alabama" isn't the most overplayed song in the history of Southern Rock, I recently had the displeasure of being subjected to your Sweet Home Alabama sample/ripoff "All Summer Long" as I had my internet radio on in the background. Now I realize you are not the most talented or charismatic of musicians so I did not exactly expect the next "Stairway to Heaven" from you, but the atrocity that was this song has caused irreperable damage to both myself, the listener, as well as Lynyrd Skynyrd's reputation. I shudder to think there may be a younger generation of listeners first being exposed to this classic hit through your annihilation of it.
Please consider this a formal request to cease and desist from any further destruction of artists and songs that represent any historical talent. Also please have your record company considering pulling this song from any rotations that may have further effect on the listening public. Should you feel the need to continue this damaging pattern of music, I will have to consult my attorney, Choptalk esq., and pursue a path of litigation.

Thank you,
Green Doberman
Fan of decent music

Holy Christ...I heard that for first time the other day on one of my rare forays into the FM dial while driving and I almost barfed as I listened to this incredible ripoff of Warren Zevon's "Werewolf of London" melody.

I have heard a lot worse...thought it was a clever idea. Won't be running out to buy it though.

When I heard this song for the first time, I thought someone had ripped off Warren Zevon and wolfs of london.

Blasphemy!

I dont think its blasphemy.The song continues to say "sweet home Alabama is his favorite song".Then they play a snippet.Skynyrd tours with Kid Rock so they must approve it.

 

[JakeT.]

It's a good song that rips off other older songs.
