Creed ♥

And today, I direct your attention to less lifestyle-y/fashion-y/beauty conversation: and that is, to discuss the American rock band from Tallahassee, Florida, CREED!
Popular in the late 1990's and early 2000's, Creed created three multi-platinum albums and have sold 26 million records in the United States, as well as an estimated 25 million records worldwide (why thank-you, Wikipedia!), but holey moley do they regularly receive the verbal equivalent of a slaughtering from the music world. And my question is, WHY? And also, when it comes to Creed, where do you stand? Do you rate them, hate them or are currently scratching your head and thinking ''who the hell or what the hell is Creed, anyway?'' (If the latter absolutely represents you, my apologies! We will return to Frock & Roll's more regular programming shortly!)
Personally, I LOVE them, and have since I first heard snippets of their My Own Prison album in a commercial in New Zealand when I was approximately ten years old. (But their overly dramatic videos? Ouch. Don't get me started!)
I don't care if they're supposedly overtly religious (which appears to be a common theme in arguments as to why they're apparently the worst band in the world!); heck, I don't even care if they're singing about magical TOADS, for goodness sake! What I do care about is the fact that I think their lead vocalist, Scott Stapp, has a phenomenal voice and that on the whole, they're immensely talented. But I would love to hear your opinion! (It's okay to reveal that you have zilch of an idea of who they are or that actually, you completely agree that they're one of the world's worst bands! My boyfriend thinks that nails on a chalkboard coupled with the sound of 1,000 sledgehammers is a more pleasant listening experience than Creed, for example, but I still love him!)
My Favourite Creed Songs:
x What's This Life For?
x Pity For A Dime
x My Own Prison
x Higher
x Bullets
x With Arms Wide Open
