Yeah... somewhat... But music critics pretty much hate them for some reasons :/ I'm also wondering why they have never won an award.
Hehe, they're also the only band that I'm still following for years now. And, I'm very happy that they somewhat reach phenomal heights and yet, they are still so humble
Anyways, some random facts about them... Kris Allen's single Live Like We're Dying was originally their song... It was pretty much just a Bonus Song off their first album. They were also once challenged by 'The Guardian Newspaper' to make a song in one day and in all fairness, they made a pretty great song. Here's the article: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2008/mar/14/popandrock3 and the song, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDZx_BmXljk
