I was handed a promo CD of My Own Prison a year before they got big, it looked bad with that horrible cover, and my hunches with new music is always spot on, and I knew it was going to suck, and it did...also if you know who Butch Walker is...from the Marvelous 3, now a solo artist & award winning producer, in his memoir "Drinking With Strangers", he tells of when he was asked, tried to be convinced, to produce Creed, and he heard them & thought they were extremely bad & felt bad for them, how their manager & label head was trying to tell Butch how he would regret it if he said no, how they would make tons of money, bla bla bla, and yes they did get popular & make money, but no regrets because they still suck and Butch has standards & did not sink so low to work with them...he only works with artists he likes, not if they will make money...me, I still think Creed are one of the worst bands ever, popular or not...

Creed is kinda like Nickelback, in that they got a lot of flack from people and if you said you liked their music, you were made fun of.

So glad you got back to Creed, for your next Creed you should do "With arms wide open", it's a personal song by the singer Scott Stapp about learning your going to have a child, very powerful. You guys Rock !!!

Incredible group. The lyrics have so much depth. Listen to this band over and over with my teen son as a church Deacon is Southern Church. Caused incredible discussions.

I loved Creed! Was sad they broke up but then they reunited for a while and had another album. Lead singer is Scott Stapp and he has his own solo albums. Mark Tremonti is on guitar and he started Alter Bridge and Tremonti and both groups are killer. A huge rabbit hole to cover all of their work but I enjoy all of it. Just saw an announcement on Scott's Facebook page where he had the Creed logo and some music and teased an announcement for July 19th so I am anxiously awaiting what that might be.

Amazing band. Seen them several times in concert. Danced to the song "With Arms Wide Open" at my sister's wedding. They weren't really labeled a Christian rock band but I'd you listen to their lyrics you can see why tons of people thought so. Scott Stapp is the lead singer and he ended up being an alcoholic mess. He's since sobered up and one of their first concerts, after he cleaned up, back he did the show shirtless and he was jacked!! Also the music industry and the media hated them. They were like the Nickelback of the late 90s early 2000's.

@@blitz3643 I agree. Creed has so many good songs it’s hard to choose.

I am usually anything but the guy to recommend a ballad to you, but as parents you have GOT to listen to "With Arms Wide Open," a song that the lead singer, Scott Stapp wrote when he found out he was going to be a father for the first time. It won them a Grammy Award for Best Rock Song in 2001. You'll both love that one. Of course, if you want to know about Creed you have got to listen to the first single off of their second album, "Higher." It spent a record breaking 17 weeks at number one on the rock radio chart, and is perhaps the song they are best known for. I've been to about 70 concerts in my life, and Creed is the absolute best at making their live performance sound as good as the album. At that time, Stapp hit every high note, all night long, and sang them with such power I couldn't believe he still had a voice at the end of the show. The band has broken up and gotten back together a couple of times now. Creed sent out a teaser tweet a few days ago saying "let's go back to the summer of '99" showing some announcement is coming on 7/19, almost certainly a new tour, hopefully (Oh God I HOPE) a new album. So they appear to be getting back together for a third time. Back when they were at their peak, after more or less firing Stapp, the other three members of the band formed another band, Alter Bridge with a new lead singer, Myles Kennedy. Lots of Alter Bridge songs worth listening to, but I've always liked "Isolation" the most. It rocks hard. When not doing Alter Bridge albums, Myles Kennedy also acts as the lead singer for Slash's solo albums. And when Creed isn't doing various reunions, Stapp has recorded a few solo albums. He had a bad substance abuse and mental health issue that made him suicidal at one point. He's got a couple of great songs dealing with those issued "Slow Suicide" and "Purpose for Pain" that you might also check out. Creed is one of those bands whose members just keep popping up in new places. Along with the other bands/solo efforts mentioned above, lead guitarist Mark Tremonti has issued a couple of solo albums that are full on heavy metal, much heavier than most of Creed or Alter Bridge's musice. And he has done some work with Eddie Van Halen's son, Wolfgang Van Halen, in the past.

Next Creed song has to be With Arms Wide Open. It was probably their biggest commercial success and I know you guys will love the message behind it. It is so uplifting.

A really good band, Scott definitely shows his father's influence on a lot of songs. They have a lot of really good songs, their greatest hit's is one of my main albums to listen to before I head off to sleep. You could pick prettly much any song off of that and I think you would really like it, but I think you will really enjoy "with arms wide open, higher or what's this life for" as one of your next listen's

This band!!! Such amazing talent! Listen to “With Arms Wide Open”. I hope they make a comeback. 👍🏼

Loved Creed. They got super popular and then they got the Nickleback treatment. Both bands got super popular and then they became targets.

To this day, the lyrics to this song are still the most powerful and moving of anything I've heard.

I brought home a Creed CD and it kind of sat for a few days. My wife played it and started to ask me why I never told her how good it was... we both fell in love with the message the songs have. Scott Stapp sells the message.

Thank you so much for doing them again!!!! LOVE creed! You HAVE to listen to "Higher", "With arms wide open" and "What if"

"With Arms Wide Open" by Creed is one of their best you will love it. Thanks for another great Video.

My Sacrifice and One Last Breath were both from the "Weathered" album by Creed, and after they released after 9/11, it helped move me from fear of what had happened to courage, but I would put this album on repeat on the CD Player back just before MP3's advented widely. I listened to this album on repeat for months from 2001-2002, because it just spoke to my soul and helped me so much with where I was in life at that time!

Goosebumps moment voice

My Own Prison (especially the accoustic version) is absolutely haunting. A must listen if you like Creed. Arms Wide Open is an extremely emotional song about a man learning he's about to be a father. Another must listen if you like what you've heard from Creed. Creed basically swapped singers and became Alter Bridge, another great group worth listening to. (They group wound up both doing a lot of music for Edge in the WWE)
