I got into Creed sometime in 1998. So I was a fan even before they were as popular as they are now. I love them all and I believe they truly are a class act. Their music and lyrics are very honest and powerful. I will listen to a song and think, I really enjoyed that, they sound terrific and then I will read the lyrics to the same song, and I'm like WHAT A TERRIFIC POET. Creed's poems drip with imagery. Stapp incorporates so many poetic devices in his writing in such a concise way-that, I have come to wonder what other kinds of literature has he studied in addition to the scriptures in the Holy Bible.
Anyway, who ever said that poets are only famous after they die, obviously has not encountered the ingenious likes of Scott Stapp who unites his poignant messages with his potent sound. Oh, did I mention that they are very classy?
