Hidey ho, readers, and welcome back to Framed, America's greatest blog. It is here--and only here!--that you'll read captions to still pictures pulled from today's greatest music videos that are so funny that several of you will likely die from excessive laughter in just a few moments.
Ahem.
Speaking of funny, when we heard that Creed had reformed, we thanked whatever God we pray to and queued up their new video. Oh, we weren't disappointed, and you won't be, either. Frankly, this is something we can treasure collectively as a species. Heck, let's see what Rolling Stone had to say about the event:
"Five years after their highly acrimonious split, Creed are reforming for a new album and an American tour, which kick(ed) off August 6th in Pittsburgh and runs through October 14th. 'I wouldn't call it a reunion,' says singer Scott Stapp. 'It's a renewing and a rebirth. I missed my boys and wanted to create music with them again. We're all thrilled to have a second chance to make a first impression.'"
Not a reunion, eh? Missed the boys, eh? Damn, this sounds great! Best of all, the new tune and video--"Overcome"--are classic Creed. Get ready, readers: you're going backstage with Creed and onstage with Creed this week! Everything's comin' up Milhouse!
We know that Creed has their share of naysayers, but we'd like to note that a "Creed Rocks" Google search turns up 2.01 million hits, while a "Creed Sucks" search generates a paltry 1.17 million. So humanity at large has pretty much decided that Creed is OK.
But, as always, we leave it to you, our valued readers: is Creed the greatest band ever, or are they tied with someone? Vote now!
