The Moron Prade reveals Rob Shock song controversy - By N.L. Belardes

It's a serious controversy about Godsmack, Bakersfield song thieves, an Irishman named Rob Shock, and the Plain White T's...

Excerpt:

First we heard about Preston Nash's bitter cries of foul in regards to the possibility that one of his songs was stolen by one of Metal's premiere bands "God Smack". A pretty shitty ordeal if you ask me, but it seems that where there is smoke, there is always... FIRE!!!

Thats right...

With all the hype surrounding the arrival of the Plain White T's show in Bakersfield, it appears a new scandal of similar nature will be riding into town as well... and on the coattails of one pissed off Rob Shock. Apparently Rob feels as if one of his songs were boosted by another chart topping band in the same fashion... namely the T's hit song "Hey there Delilah". Yep, Rob is one pissed off red head and will soon be in the hunt for justice along side Mr. Nash.

Rob gave me a set of lyrics dated Nov. 17th 2004, and I have to admit that although I never would have guessed this to be of Rob's writing style... There is an uncanny resemblance between the two lyric sheets.
