Hell, just retract out of stupidity. Here, I'll use a REALLY simple explanation, k?

song - [n] a short musical composition with words; "a successful musical must have at least three good songs

Ahem. Here, allow me to draw your attention to this phrase with words
Ok. Have we got that?

99.9%? He would have to AT LEAST play an instrument. (Another hint- he doesn't.)
Let's be generous here, and say he wrote 1/4 of Creed's music. 1/4....99.9%.....Hmmmmm...
He wrote the minority. If he would like to go up there and sing with no drums, no guitar, electric or acoustic (save him learning it himself, or if theres some mystery song that Tremonti DIDNT do the guitar work on), whoopty doo. If Creed songs had just been him doing that, he would have flopped. Because, no matter what 'special meaning' (Cough*rose colored glasses *Cough) those songs held for you, he COULD not have made it purely on his vocals. Period.

This thread holds no purpose any longer. The people who love Scott Stapp religiously will find no fault in it, and the people who love AB will see no meaning in him singing the songs. It's just causing more division on this board.
