I think if all the assholes who sang like this actually looked like this guy, and made videos like this, I'd love this kind of music.

True enough item. That probably should have read "For nine of your surrealist needs."

Oh God. I used to really love Creed. I'm so embarrassed.

(not as much as this guy, though...)

This should have been the real "One Last Breath" video. I laughed like a loon.

This seems as good a place as any to make this observation: it has always bothered me that he sings "I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking maybe six feet ain't so far down". Far down? But he didn't say it was a six foot drop specifically, he only said he was six feet from the edge. Or is he rolling down a hill?

He is six feet from the edge (of dying) but thinks that being six feet down (dead and buried) might not be that bad. It's a play on "six feet under."

The green screen works, man. You can stop.

Actually I think you're right in thinking it's kind of nonsense and M Edward is giving them too much credit!

well, i will say this for this thing: he looks pretty much like the kind of dude who would find doing this funny

Hey you know what? It's ok that you like Creed, and don't feel obliged to say you don't due to peer pressure.

This is the best thing I could have watched before bed. Thank you.

Although I wish he had worn the leather pants from the real video
