At the time the big phone of the year was the Nokia 1100 and it didn’t even take pictures. Now, a more current version of the song has been released by Nickelback for a Google Photos commercial and it shows that Nickelback sees what you’re saying and they aren’t afraid to poke fun at themselves. —LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH…COMMERCIAL
