I lost my wife of 15,years if marriage to covid. She passed away on Christmas eve 2021....I now raise my 2,children on my own....she loved this band ...so this song hits home hard😢
So sorry for your loss. Stay strong with your beatiful children.
Bless her soul & strength to you & your family.
Jay you will love With arms wide open. He wrote it when his son was born. Its a beautiful song. I highly recommend it.✌❤
I was thinking the same thing.
Truth. Create song and video!! I also like the song "One" but I dont believe there was a video to it. But yes, Arms Wide Open is perhaps their best song.
Please do the music video for Arms Wide Open, as some others are suggesting. Great song and vid.
Creed was at the beginning of a trend of Christian Rock bands that made it main stream. Im not a very religious person but have always liked Creed and the possitivity of their songs. They also have a unique sound.
Exactly. Perfect choice for Jay!
Agreed! Arms Wide Open has a great meaning behind it too!
Dude, your reaction to Scott Stapp hitting the high note in the bus, is the most beautiful reaction ever. Thank you and your lovely wife for your extraordinary reaction to this song.
It was beautiful ❤️
I really love “One last breath” and “Higher”. Both of those are going to make you gush over Creed.
One Last Breath 👍
there gospel song was my fav
My late wife and I met them while shooting a video for a local band appearing at the same club. They quickly became her favorite band. They released this song five days before she was killed in a car crash. I always think of her when I hear it - thanks for doing this one especially!
Bittersweet memories. Sorry you lost her that way. I sincerely hope your heart is healing.
I am very sorry for your loss 🙏❤
Sorry for your loss man. hold to the promise that you WILL see her again. much love sent man.
Sorry for your loss! Healing vibes!
Sorry for your loss man.
“With Arms Wide Open” is another of their songs that is worth a listen.
Dude that song came out a short time before my first child, a masculine child, was born and it broke me.
Its a beautiful song. That's the only song I heard the day we laid my infant son to rest. Heard it on the way there and on the way home both times it was on the radio station. So it's sentimental to me.
@@staceydohrer3207 Im incredibly sorry for your loss. That just makes me cry.
Awesome song, until my neighbor gets white girl wasted and sings it 14x off key lmaooooo some demon gave him a karaoke machine😳🤣
@@staceydohrer3207 ugh! I wish I read this before I posted my silly reply... my heart & prayers go out to you!♥️🙏❤
This was the band that really transitioned everything from grunge back to rock. They dominated the charts and put out some awesome music. The critics and snobby music fans absolutely loved to hate them at every turn especially since their lyrics have a lot of religious/christian influence. Their music will stand the test of time, and it's great to see people who have never heard of them get blown away. As a live music fan who has seen probably close to 100 different acts that have been on the charts/radio, they always put on a great show.
Very well put! 👍
I hate that snotty Jann Wenner and his RRHOF!
You'd be surprised to find out that they aren't actually religious, it was just a common misconception because of how they worded their lyrics. :)
@@Don_Toine It's always bugged me how Christians always tried to claim them as a Christian band, but then the haters tried to label them a Christian band as if it were some sort of insult. Their music just fucking rocked.
Scott Stapp did use a ton of spiritual/religious references in his lyrics, but that's just a reflection of his upbringing and partially of his outlook. They've outright stated though that they aren't a Christian band.
@@jek4837 such a sad fall to Scott
I didn't realize as a kid but irealize today that he's singing about Christ. And that makes these songs infinitely more powerful.
Nope. Scott said it wasn’t
Always liked them didn't care what critics said, still don't, since music is ALWAYS personal to the individual I enjoyed Creed's music. Several really big hits to dive into. "Higher", "Arms Wide Open", "One", "One Last Breath" ..+more. love the reaction!!
Well said.
Agreed. They are amazing. Their music is unbelievably good. The critics can go to hell.
Couldn't agree more. The more famous they got, the more crap they got ...like Nickleback and Imagine Dragons. Once the EVERYONE likes them, the "cool kids" call them lame. Y'all do what you gotta do, but I'm listening to Creed, AND Nickleback AND Imagine Dragons. 😁
Me too
YASSSS...love this band! Critics don't know s#@t!!! It was in the late 90's. They were a Christian band!
You should do "Arms Wide Open". Scott Stapp (the lead vocalist) wrote it when he found out his wife was pregnant with their first child. It is a beautiful power ballad... Having just had your son I think you will particularly appreciate it.
Edit: Creed had a sound to them... if you liked one of their songs you'd like their whole album. I ate up all three of their first albums... Then after they finished their tour for the third album they didn't do anything for a year and finally announced they had broke up. They got back together 5 years later and produced a 4th album. I can't say that I'm very familiar with that album. I should go back and check it out... Thanks for reminding me of them... 😄
Yes arms wide open✌️
I second that request 🙋🏻♀️
I third that request!
4th that request
Yes that is what I suggested last time
These guys were KINGS of the Rock Music charts in their day.
Creed was a love or hate band. They had a lot of hits, a lot of their songs were spiritually based.
I'm sure plenty of people were just in the middle.
Wouldn’t quite call these guys a Christian band but there are some heavy religious undertones and references. Creed kinda got beat up by critics and hard rock fans. I personally liked them, very anthemic songs, melodic, could be very hard rock at times. Check out Higher, My Own Prison, One, Stand Here With Me (great guitar solo).
You wouldnt be wrong. Thats what they started out as. And I thought I might be trippin about being able to tell in their tunes, so, glad to hear someone else say that they can hear it as well.
Yes the "band" definitely did not deserve to be ridiculed and drug through the mud because of the lead singer, they were a great band...
Same and well put.
They're not a Christian band. Scott Stapp is a Christian and wrote the lyrics. The lyrics oftentimes were him wrestling with his experiences and his faith.
Creed and Nickelback get a bad rap. They put out great music which is still listenable today. Really, what else is there?
This song isn't really about another person, it's basically about Scott Stapp's (the lead singer) struggle with drugs and depression. The person he is referring to is the other side of himself being there trying to pull him out of the bad fighting to be the better version.
Yes...plus the conflict of his very religious upbringing and the God he was taught...and the God he found
@@davidstick9207 i read an article the Scott started acting very strange. Started to get very paranoid, treating his wife like shit. One day he got on his bicycle and took off. He never came home. He was telling people that he met on this trip that someone was trying to kill him, someone was following him. His wife reported him missing. If i remember he was gone for a couple of weeks before the cops found him. He was miles away from home. Out of state i think. Anyway, he finally agreed to get some help and he was admitted to a psych hospital. He was finally diagnosed as schizophrenic as well as the drug use. Very sad because he is very talented.
@@donnagonatas3155
He's sober and doing well now. Released a great solo album 3 years ago. I did security for him a few years ago. He was nice. Had a good conversation with his wife.
@@donnagonatas3155 Wow!! I had no idea but yeah you were describing schizophrenia to a Tee could even be schizoaffective disorder. Schizophrenia with serious mood disorder. Medications can help. This is heart breaking
Another great song with a similar theme is by Bullet for my Valentine “The Last Fight”
He sang "Above of all the others, we'll fly. Which brings tears to my eyes. My sacrifice."
Creed has so many hits, they're honestly one of my favorite band. Scott Stapp is the singer, who has some solo work as well. They're a post-grunge rock band. Higher, With Arms Wide Open, One, and My Own Prison I very highly recommend.
There are two bands that a lot of people constantly hate on that I really love...and that's Creed and Nickelback. I always loved this song and felt it was something of an anthem. Lead singer Scott Stapp stated that the meaning of the song lyrics were about his own personal struggles with battling substance abuse, addiction and alcoholism and failing despite his best efforts, and him coming to terms with his inability to stay on the straight and narrow. Stapp also explains that the song is about coming out of a dark place or period in your life and reconnecting with yourself. He notes several of the songs lyrical themes are represented through elements in the music video. These include a shot of himself in a rowboat where he is seen pulling a drowning version of himself out of the water onto the boat, which represents periods of his life where he would claim sobriety, coming out from the darkness and finding temporary clarity, only to fall back into his old habits. He also mentions that the shots of other people in the video are representative of the feelings you have when you are with someone you love. In 2004 this band, one of my favorites ever, disbanded, with Stapp leaving the band and the other members replacing him with new Lead Miles Kennedy and forming the new band Alter Bridge...my new and even more favorite band. You need to do them next. Also if you want some more Creed, do the song HIGHER.
Don’t forget Europe too. Creed, Nickleback and Europe. The band I was in would open with Rush’s Subdivisions, only ironically start by playing the beginning of The Final Countdown, then transition to Subdivisions. But yeah, I’m one of them. Did not like, made fun of.
Don't get the hate. Creed can have a hard rock vibe with Tremonti's guitar work at times. Scott Stapp is a great lyricist & I really loved Creed.
@@emmabauer1906 his back and forth with sobriety cemented him being known as a huge a-hole. He’s gotten a lot of deserved backlash and articles written. He seemed to me that he thought he was better than everyone else. However, he had a lot of mental issues. A lot. I hope as a person he’s doing well now and healthy, but back then he was the worst.
I really like Creed, but I'm not on board with Nickelback. I disliked their sound and lyrics from the beginning. Most people who hate on them today used to dig them and only got into hating them because it became a way to virtue signal on social media - as if hating on them gave your opinions street credit. 'You can only be one of the cool kids if you hate Nickelback.'
My Own Prison and Higher are two other popular, and very good, songs by Creed. I always liked their sound. You two just have to do some 3 Doors Down, "Here Without You", "It's Not My Time", or "When I'm Gone" is a good place to jump in.
Kryptonite if you do 3 Doors Down!!
Yes 3 Doors Down and The Dave Matthews Band
3 Doors Down!!!! YES
And One,which is my favorite
Also Let Me Be Myself
One of the greatest bands of all time
After the lead singer left the band, the others went on to form Alter Bridge with Myles Kennedy (who also works with Slash). It's worth checking them out as well. Mark Tremonti is probably one of the best rock guitarists around at the moment.
Tremonti is criminally underrated. Love alter bridge 🤘
Creed, led by singer Scott Stapp, was one of the most popular bands in the late 90s/early 2000's post-grunge era. They had SO many songs on the radio, and all of them were bangers. "Higher" is definitely one of their biggest. Also on your list should be "My Own Prison", "What's This Life For", "With Arms Wide Open", and "One Last Breath". I would also HIGHLY recommend another band in this genre, Live. (Pronounced like "alive".) Their songs "Lightning Crashes" and "Lakini's Juice" will make you instant fans.
@@Midnightmidway Yup. Bangers.
@@Midnightmidway Yes 100% bangers.
Good call on Live. They were more early 90s alternative rock with deep lyrics.
@@Midnightmidway yes creed has bangers!!!
Yes, Lightning Crashes is a great song.
Cmon guys people are now asking for Alter Bridge.
Its basically creed but with a singer called Myles Kennedy.
That guy can sing, he is incredible.
Creed started in Christian Rock and moved into mainstream without losing the faith theme. Great lyrics with a solid rock background. Great sound with a great message.
Creed never released Christian music. The religious tones came from Stapps super religious/abusive father and how Stapp struggles with his faith.
Yo! I just discovered your site on UA-cam about a week ago. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. I am considerably older than you. I am (African American)local singer musician on the Jersey Shore. I generally perform for resorts and I was raised to honor all musical tastes.
I just watched your video on the band "CREED" (MY SACRIFICE). I perform this song as part of my show. I don’t whether or not you have already learned or not, but, believe or not, CREED IS A CHRISTIAN ROCK BAND.
They were so good that the record companies created an image of them as a mainstream rock band. Listen to "My Sacrifice" again, forget the imagery, and know that the lead singer talking about "Jesus ".
Lead singer is Scott Stapp.
When the band split from Scott, guitarist Mark Tremonti, bassist Brian Marshall and drummer Scott Phillips joined up with Myles Kennedy to form Alter Bridge.
Being a child of the 50's this is the first time I ever heard them, however I met a couple of them. I was the building inspector on one of their houses. I think it was Scott.
@@spiderdog7599 Creed was big in the late 90's and early 2000's.
@@chriso6719 Yeah I know, my kids were teenagers at the time. When I told them I was inspecting the house of one of the band members they told me they were a big band. Working the Windermere area of Orlando I was the inspector for a lot of Orlando's rich & famous. Tiger Woods, Shaq, Joey Fatone, Ken Griffey Jr, & Tyra Banks to name a few.
Always loved Creed’s music. Other great songs are “What If”, “Bullets”, “Are You Ready”, “Who’s Got My Back” & “Stand Here with Me”
"Arms Wide Open" also
My Own Prison...One...Higher....Don't Stop Dancing...What's This Life For. You can't go wrong with any Creed song.
Also, check out their cover of Alice Cooper's "Eighteen"
Ive always loved dont stop dancing!
OMG I love Are You Ready. One of my faves.
I was a fan. I met Scott Stapp at Medieval Times in Kissimmee. I didn't want to bother him, but he was right in front of me, so I told him that I'm a big fan and love his work. He put his hand up and said "whatever, kid" like he was floating above me and I was some sort of peon. I threw his cd away as soon as I got home and haven't listened to his music since.
Such a uplifting song
Gotta do "My own prison" FOR SURE their best song
Wish you would have listened to “With Arms Wide Open” it’s about the struggles of a man before the birth of his son.. my husband and I danced to it on our very first date 20 years ago.
Amber will LOVE “With Arms Wide Open”!!!!!!
@@tonia-lynnkeller1970 she will!!! So will Jay!
Torn off the my own prison album is another fire tune as well!
@@johncbt6246 they have too many to name but yes! Torn is top tier! Love Scott Stapps voice in that one ❤️
@@caley1995 I agree Jay might relate to the "holy crap I'm gonna be dad" vibe of the song Arms Wide Open. Ha
I was completely obsessed with Creed when I was in high school, and I was totally in love with the singer, Scott Stapp. MTV did an episode of Making the Video for this song and it was like, the best thing that had ever happened in my life. My little 17 year old brain nearly exploded.
I had a friend who went to a Creed concert at nine months pregnant and went into labor in the middle of the show. She refused to leave until the concert was over.
I recommend My Own Prison. Love that song.
LOL that’s epic 😆
Their song Arms Wide Open is also great :)
I LOVED their Weathered album. My favorite song on it is "Who's Got My Back?" Wasn't a radio hit but a BANGER
YES! FUCKING YES!!!!
Being a huge Creed fan, their songs are one or the other, you either get something nice and uplifting like this, or something pretty heavy like "Bullets", "Overcome" or "What If". Some songs are also pretty moody like "Torn" and "Illusion"
With Arms Wide Open. Beautiful rock.
"What's this Life For" and "Arms Wide Open" will get the feels going. Great band!
To me the main staple of Creed and later Alter bridge is Mark Tremonti ( the lead Guitarist ) You should check Alter bridge or his solo band Tremonti both are awesome modern rock bands.
P.S. You want emotion listen to Alterbridge - Black Bird. You cant listen to it and not feel something.
Creed has such a rough sound but they pull it off so smoothly, if that makes any sense. A deep passionate voice backed up with a serious rock sound.
like alot of rockers scott stapp had a rough road with drugs and depression, its so sad when such talent doesnt know their worth. im glad hes doing well today
i loved their music around 1999 or early 2000's.
This is Scott Stapp....phenomonal vocals...and the band rocks hard! Higher and With Arms Wide Open are great...but my fave is The Great Divide...Scott's best solo track!!!!
My favorites of his solo stuff is broken, slow Suicide, purpose for pain, justify, and name.
The best thing that came out of Creed Is Mark Tremonti! One of the best song writers and Guitarist living right now. He formed Alter bridge after Creed called it quits and he has an AMAZING Solo project Hard rock/Metal Named, Tremonti. The man never disappoints with his Talent. Creed is Great!! will always be a fan. I can play every song on the guitar by them. I was what you call obsessed lol. they came out when I was 16 in high school and really started getting into guitar. 22 years later I'm still at it.
Mark is a stand up guy. A great guitarist but a really nice man.
I agree with the Mark Tremonti comment. Alter Bridge is amazing as well as Tremonti. Amazing guitarist.
Creed is one of the only band that sounds live just like you hear in a CD!!
Faceless Man was a favorite for me… they were a favorite for a long time
Their first album My own prision and second album Human Clay are in the top 5 Best selling rock albums of all time I believe Human clay went diamond almost 4 time in sales.
ARMS WIDE OPEN is a great song by them ❤️. It's about when he learned he was going to be a Dad.
I haven't listened to this song in years. Gives me chills. His voice is epic and the lyrics are so good. Wait till you hear "One Last Breath".
Yess!!!
A year ago, 👏 u might have been a decade or so late. But this song saved a whole generation & can personally can tell u most are still alive cause this song help got us through some our toughest struggles as kids/young adults.
I really liked Creed. I LOVE AlterBridge! Myles Kennedy is a great vocalist and songwriter and guitar player! Meanwhile Mark Tremonti has been allowed to spread his wings and play amazing guitar solos and metal riffs….also sings the occasional song. They sounded a bit ‘Creed-like’ on their first album and have progressed amazingly every album thereafter. Not a bad sing in their repertoire 💪
Wooow great reacton as Always 😁👍You should check out Alter Bridge now that you met Creed. This is almost the same band but with an other singer named Myles Kennedy and he's one the most talented rock singer Of our Time.
The song Blackbird from Alter Bridge is a masterpiece 🤘
It took years for me to warm up to Creed. Not really a genre that I like much, but the lyrics are more coherent and positive than most bands. I finally saw them live and it was great. Fantastic live performance with a fantastic upbeat audience. They had at least a dozen great songs.
I have seen them several times. Scott Stapp has the exact same voice live. Few others can say that! Arm Wide Open is a must as next Creed reaction!
They released this after 9/11 and the entire album was incredible, it helped me from going from being fearful to having courage and faith in America again, that we would survive and this was especially meaningful after the sacrifices of Flight 77 in giving their lives to protect Americans in DC after the Towers and Pentagon had already been hit!
Scott Stapp is the lead singer and songwriter. An incredible voice and a major reason CREED got as big as they did. The band later tried going without him, but they never had the same success without him that they did with him.
alter bridge did well respectively... by the time they came out, the music scene changed on them
Omgosh I’m so happy you’re doing Creed! “With Arms Wide Open” is another gorgeous song of theirs! Written when Scott Stapp found out he was going to be a dad again!
Seen them in concert and his voice is just as powerful live❤️
Their biggest song, that still makes me cry to this day, is ARMS WIDE OPEN. It's a song dedicated to the news of when he found out he was going to be a father.
Get your tissues, because it will get you. It's so loving and beautiful.
They can be labeled alternative Rock. Adult contemporary Rock, Ballad Rock or loosely categorized into Christian rock, because the lyrics are clean enough and have a spiritual undertone for faith, and struggle with overcoming bad things in their lives, like drug abuse, depression and etc..
Big 90's band.
I absolutely love Creed. When their second album "Human Clay" hit, I was at the record store (remember those) so early they hadn't even unpacked the boxes. They had to go get me the CD from the back room. A lot of people called them a Christian band, but they weren't really. The lead singer, Scott Stapp, was just brought up in a very religious household and wrote about what he knew. I saw them in concert once, and I'd have to say that Stapp poured more effort and emotion into every song than any of the other 60-70 lead singers I've seen. He may have been a jerk off stage, but he sure put in the effort on stage.
There are two of their songs that you should definitely check out, both from that previously mentioned second album. First is "Higher." It was at number one on both the Modern Rock and Mainstream Rock charts for 17 weeks, which was a record at the time. And as parents, you will definitely want to check out their ballad, "With Arms Wide Open." You might actually shed some tears over that one.
The band fell apart when the rest of the band got tired of dealing with the lead singer. The original guitarist, drummer, and bass player formed another band, Alter Bridge, with lead singer Myles Kennedy. Myles is also the lead singer for Slash, when Slash isn't off playing with Guns 'n Roses. Check out their song, "Isolation" if you really want to rock out. The guitarist, Mark Tremonti, has also formed a solo project called Tremonti, that plays some much heavier music. Also, since the breakup, Stapp has sobered up and released a few solo albums that are worth checking out.
Basically, Creed is one of those bands that can really drag you down the rabbit hole. They have had several great songs of their own, and the band members have gone on to do other worthwhile projects, often with other musicians who are also worth checking out. You could spend a month reacting just to Creed and all the other musicians they're connected to.
Never understood all the hate Creed got. They’re a solid rock band with good songs IMO. Definitely check their other stuff out.
“One” and “ With arms wide Open” are a must ! You guys are awesome
This song came out when I started to date my wife. Obviously, back then there wasn't anything besides CDs. I had a Jeep that I had those CD controls on the steering wheel and kept playing this when I was with my future wife. Those words really felt how the two of us felt together.
Weird time in history cause it was just after the awful events of 9/11 and I was chopping to a SOF command. Needless to say. the next year was wild but this song kept us grounded and she knew, like I did, that when I was with her I was feel and careless. I deployed down range a year later to the giant sand box and this song got me through that incredible journey. I'll always love this song. Glad yall loved it.
"Faceless Man" is their most Powerful song about faith. The music and the singing will give you goosebumps from the passion. I tear up to this day!!
LORD I STAAAAAND!!!!
Creed was HUGE!! They were also disliked by many. Very much the same way people hate Nickelback.
I think it's just because they became the FACE of the rock scene when they were both popular, leading to tons of overplay.
I was about to say the same thing. I recall most people jamming to them until somebody said they weren’t cool anymore.
@@RyanHeafner Until Creed got super popular people who were into that genre/sphere of music thought they were into something special with Creed because the lyrics were so obviously fantastic. The irony for me is, I couldn't stand that genre in general, hated the sound, especially the distorted vocals - like someone singing with marshmallows or chewing tobacco packed in their cheeks or lips - and I eventually came around to loving their music. For years I couldn't get past that sound to appreciate the lyrics. But Creed grew on me over time. Finally my girlfriend and future wife bought tickets for us to see them (in their last year of popularity). Also ironic, she bought the tickets as a surprise because she knew they were popular and playing in our city and she thought I liked them, despite me never saying anything about them. I loved seeing them live and it tipped the scales turning me into a fan. Stapp was a bit affected, constantly singing to the video cameras, but otherwise a great experience. And, I might add, it was the most positive and wholesome audience I've ever been around at a big concert venue like that, and I've been to a few.
Very strange, that.
This is my favorite Creed song, and I agree with everyone that Arms Wide Open is spectacular too 🖤
Everything I felt as a Christian in the military as a Combat Medic. Man, these guys understood my life. My home life as a child was rough but I tried to help my sister from that life. Sadly, she chose a difficult life. My kids are good and am a grandparent with really well-behaved kids. Went through a lot with PTSD but my kids are getting the best of me.
Y’all need to do “My own prison” by creed. Scott Stapp is the singers name
Holy WOW you guys have taken me back with this one. There was a very brief period in my early 20s where I attended a super fundamentalist Assemblies of God church, where we didn’t consume any secular media. Our college group collectively decided Creed was okay because the band members were Christian and the song themes were Christian-adjacent (whatever that means) so my friends and I basically became super fans. Even went to their concert though tickets were expensive for us. And then when I stopped going to church, I don’t think I listened to a song of theirs again, so it’s probably been a good 15 years since I’ve heard this-I couldn’t even remember the melody. I think they’re considered post-grunge or maybe even nu-metal and have some bangers, damn what the critics said back then. “With Arms Wide Open” was written when Scott Stapp found out his wife was pregnant and is a beautiful slower song, “One Last Breath,” and “My Own Prison,” were also popular, but my favorite was always “Higher.” Thank you for reminding me of them!
Creed is an awesome band. My favorite song is "Higher". Scott Stapp is a great vocalist, and Mark Tremonti is one of the best rock guitarists ever. So, when Creed broke up, the rest of the band hired a new vocalist, Miles Kennedy, and formed a new band called Alter Bridge. Miles is a top tier vocalist and guitarist, and Mark actually added a lot more lead playing to their songs. If you are interested in checking them out, I would recommend a live version of "Blackbird". I think you'll be absolutely blown away by that song and want to dive into Alter Bridge as well.
“With Arms Wide Open” will blow you away especially since it’s about him having a child. Stamp is a talented man.
Please check out BLUE OCTOBER “Hate Me”, P.O.D “Youth of the Nation” and STONE SOUR “Bother”. Creed is post-grunge which derives from grunge but is less intense in tone than traditional grunge, so Alt Rock basically lol.
Ooh, yes to Blue October! I saw them perform at the House of Blues in Dallas. They were awesome!
Yes to Blue October!
Blue October is incredible. The lead singer semi recently did a series of covers on UA-cam that I discovered and holy cow.
Hate me and Bother are 2 of my favorite songs of all times, I listened to those songs probably 50 times a day. Another great one is “From Can to Can’t” Dave Grohl did an album Sound City: Real to Reel with various artists, Corey Taylor On vocals on this particular one, along with Dave Grohl, Scott Reeder and Rick Nielsen from Cheap Trick (sort of a super group/jam session) and it’s just a hauntingly beautiful song.
They are a “post-grunge, hard rock, alternative rock” band. Most of their songs are on “Christian Theology”, do to Scott’s (lead singer) spiritual upbringing (his step father was a Pentecostal Minister).
Even the band's name, Creed, has religious meaning as well.
Scott Stapp's step father was not a minister. He was strict and devout. He was a dentist. The songs weren't based on theology. The lyrics Scott Stapp wrote dealt with his human and spiritual struggles. His faith and life experiences as a person humanly and spiritually.
He’s talking about RE DEDICATING HIS LIFE TO CHRIST!!!!! He back-slid and is COMING BACK HOME!!!❤😢
A song packed with emotion. Great reaction!
I actually got to see Creed in concert and it definitely had a MUCH different feel to it than any other concert that I've been to in that it had a... I don't know... kind of church singing feel to it. Hard to explain!!! There were a lot of people holding their arms up like you do in church. That's probably what led to a LOT of people wearing "Creed Sucks!" t-shirts to other artist's concerts in the 90's.
For me, I just liked their music separate from any of the religious/spi hype.
Strapps religioius background is no secret. He went to Lee College
@@yaimavol and his step dad was a minister.
Saw them in December of '99 in the orange bowl with Metallica and Kid Rock. The greatest concert I ever saw.
@@yaimavol Of course! But I was speaking about the surprising reaction (to me) by a majority of the people at the concert.
Now that you've experienced, Creed you need to check out the band with their "new" name (Alter Bridge) and Lead Singer, Myles Kennedy.
Can't go wrong with, The Last Hero. 🔥🤘🏽🔥🤘🏽
This song takes me back to 9th grade, super nostalgia my favorite Creed song.
I have always interpreted the song as him talking about himself. About how we have to find ourselves again because we always sacrifice ourselves to be a part of the world/fit in whatever. So when we find ourselves again we are free.
You could spend days listening to all the great music Creed has put out I looked on my Spotify account and I've got 47 liked Creed song the list is hug.
List in order on my Spotify is My Sacrifice, one last breath, higher, With Arms Wide Open, My Own Prison, one, Don't Stop Dancing, what if, what's this life for, weathered, say I, torn, hide, are you ready, stand here with me, faceless man, etc...
" My Own Prison " is one of my top 5 songs of all time. From their 1st album.of the same name. It's a must listen for all!🔊🔊💙
Creed was of a very certain time…..they, as well as Lifehouse were what were considered by many “undercover Christian rock bands”. When both groups started having radio hits, I didn’t have any immediate feeling of those songs being religiously affiliated, but after their connections to Christian rock were more well-known, I wasn’t surprised. To me, that’s the making of a great song…..a song that can have different meanings to different listeners! Their music is great! They made music that was spiritually significant to them, but made it relatable to everyone. To me, the fact that their songs had multiple layers was a beautiful thing! Lifehouse has so many great songs you would LOVE!!! Hanging By a Moment, You and Me, First Time, Whatever It Takes, Halfway There…..all are AMAZING!!!
This. I love Creed more than Lifehouse. I still love Lifehouse. I must say Lifehouse has so many more good songs. No Name Face had like 11 hits out of the 12 songs!
When your with me refers to when christ is with you! Great song about spiritual relationship.
My Own Prison was the song they took around to get a record deal. Great, great song. Higher was a HUGE hit, absolutely took over American radio for 6 months. They were giant for a couple years. They get a lot of crap because Scott Stapp had some mental issues, but they had a very unique, dynamic sound that was very well accepted at first. Holds up pretty well today, they had a lot of talent.
Highly underestimated...Amazing sound, powerful...Sad the critics tore them down...Thanx guys, Blessings
Higher and With Arms wide open are also great creed songs.Creed was one of the most popular bands in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. Scott Stapp is an awesome singer.
SCOTT STAPP rocks! 🤘🏼 LOVE ❤️ LOVE ❤️ LOVE ❤️ that you’re listening to his beautiful voice.
Scott Stapp is a tortured soul. He loves Jesus and thats what this song is about. His relationship with our Savior. Love it!
Glad I'm not the only one who realized this! But I didn't hear it that way when I was younger, what a blessing!
What's so great about many bands/ groups with lead singers who also write is how the struggles and moods of the singer/ writer are part of the band. Strapp is a person who's dealt with drama.. drugs.. faith.. family..
Sad for the artists but their struggles with drugs/alcohol make for some pretty amazing songs.
I have requested so many channels to play Creed and it falls on deaf ears. TY for finally doing it. Their 1st album is Amazing!!!
I’ve been trying too! More is coming eventually 😊
Arms wide open, One last breath.
Creed is awesome. This is the group that made me love the newer style rock when it was transitioning from grunge to the 2000's style rock. Just great. They have a ton of great music.
Very underrated band, was one of my favorite in the late 90s early 00s. Not sure why they were always bagged on but these guys can rock out!!!!!!!
Arms wide open! You won’t be disappointed!
Creed is METAL! Creed dominated the 90s. This is their best song. Their 2nd best song is Are You Ready?
We saw Scott Stapp (lead singer) in concert just before the pandemic hit & it was one of the best shows we saw that year. I also saw Creed in concert back when they were huge (1999 or 2000 I think). They are fantastic! So many great songs to check out!
Me too!! I saw Creed 3 times and saw Scott in July 2019. I was close enough to the stage I could see the song list that they had on the floor on the stage!!!!
My favorite Creed song!! Helped me through a lot of depression and anxiety. Great song!!!! This band is a rabbit hole of awesomeness.
Arms wide open, Higher, bullets, and my own prison. These are my favorite from Creed.
This song will always remember of the 2002 Winter Olympics is Salt Lake City. This was one of the songs they sang at “the Olympic concert” one night. It brings back great memories, thanks for sharing.
This is a band I’ve been waiting for you guys to react to. So glad you did! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️
I loved Creed's music but for some reason they got a lot of negative reaction.... THe lead singer Scott Stapp was a bit controversial both within the band and in his personal life... Another band that for some reason gets huge pushback from the rock fanbase is Nickleback and I just don't know why because they have had numerous hits from the mid 90s into the 2000s. You might check them out but beware of the negative Nancys.....
I 💜 This Band!🥰🤣🤗💃🎶
When Creed first came out, I was obsessed with them. They have so many great songs. Deep meanings. My Own Prison is a great song. Check it out!!
