I'm gonna reply to Tara's post here as well- I totally agree with you when it comes to those people - they just want get some reaction, so let's ignore them. I still consider myself as a "Higher fan", it's all have started because of "Higher". But after I have bought the cds I know there are better songs on the album than "WAWO". Don't get me wrong, those songs are great, but don't you have this feeling like you would like to choose something else for the single, like for example I would chooose "Beautiful". It was the first song, that has made such a big impression on me. I've loved it since I've first heard it. And there are other Creed's songs, that mean to me much more because of the lyrics, but "Beautiful" will still remain as a song with this unbelievable sound that "drives me crazy":) (in a good way of course). And this is also great, that after you bought cd, you listen to it and you see it was worth to buy it, that there are a lot of better songs there,not just a cd with one great tune and you need to get used to to the rest of the album. When I bought "MOP" I remember it clearly I didn't like much "Ode" (musically) and now I love it, I think this is one of the best songs there. A lot of people think that Creed is just a band like "WAWO" or "Higher" tunes and when I give them the cd they're telling me - "hey!it's a really rock album".

When it comes to the new album - I'm just little affraid, that it may sound little like "HC" type of songs, with this slow begining and harder ending. I would like them to do some harder stuff , because then they don't forget about great melodies, guitar sounds and it has always good rhythm (this last one sounds probably weird, but really there are some songs, that I can't find rhythm in there, lol! - but you know me...) What do you think about some more piano sound ? Could be nice, like on "WTLF". But I think I don't have to worry about the similar sound, since "MOP" and "HC" are so different...
