    1: More proof that the general public has no taste in music (see also White Stripes). Ever hear their song "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?" The entire song is based around ONE chord. Apparently people are entertained by a song that only has one chord in it. To further add insult to injury, Jet's music also sounds like it was recorded in the 70s. The reason music in the 70s sounded like that was due to the limitations of recording technology; it was not a sound for which people strived.

    2: ALL SONGS (unless the key modulates, which it doesnt do very often, mainly classical music) are based around ONE chord!
