What does Nickleback have to do with anything? Bowie was popular but he was competing against the likes of The Beatles, The Who, CS&N, The Doors, etc. The list of No. 1 albums in 1970: Abbey Road, Led Zeppelin II, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Let It Be, Woodstock Soundtrack, Cosmos Factory, etc. Tough competition back then. I think Bowie wasn't as popular in the U.S. as he was in England because of the weirdness.

His point was, even an awful band like Nickleback had a #1 album, so why the actually talented Bowie?
