But on watching the video. I heard excerpts that would have increased
the power of the song. But to satisfy the tamer music listener. I
understand the reasoning behind the dulling of the power that the song
might have.


Maybe the album version will be a little rougher edged and aimed more at
the album rocking crowd. I don't know if the idea of a rougher album
version has been considered or not.



Jim do you know this as fact? Do you have some music insider telling you that Creed is out to satisfy mainstream audiences?  Is your insider telling you the album is going to be aimed more at the album rock crowd? I hope you do because your statements are coming across as you taking them as fact as opposed to just speculation.  And why don't you know if the idea of a rougher album version has been considered or not? You seem to know everything else about the album, and Creed's reasons behind making the music they make.
