8 Videos that Have Fewer Views than Hoobastank's "The Reason"

This is really sad, America.

This week, we were APPALLED to learn of the Rockaholic tour, a five day cruise featuring on-ship performances by America’s crap rock bands of yesteryear including Fuel, Korn, and of course, Hoobastank. The cruise’s website includes Hoobastank’s “hit” 2003 song, “The Reason,” which has amassed a mind-boggling 70 million+ views. As sad as this, the sadness is magnified by the fact that there are literally thousands of more deserving videos out there in YouTubeland which have view counts paling in comparison to the ‘Stank. This is our America, people. We’ve chosen to live this way.
