Touching story to my heart I thought I'd share

I met this really smart girl in my class (last person in the world I thought would listen to Creed) and she told me she and her mother used to LOVE Creed, and I put love in caps because she said it very loudly....and then I asked her "used to?" and she said she kind of lost interest in them after they broke up and we laughed and then I asked her "Hey wait a minute, why did you like them?" and she said this "Their songs just had so much meaning, I fell in love with them because they are not like other songs where people are whining and crying over stupid crap, the songs with Creed have meaning and substance and they are truly genius pieces of work" so then I asked her if she was into Alter Bridge or Stapp at all, to which she responded "Well I kinda lost my rock love and got into classical music, but I do like a lot of stapp's songs and I'm buying his album, old obsessions never die" so I just thought I'd share that, that touched me heart a bit to see that rock fans are not just like me, lol, but they can be like her too..... and then I got my teacher Mrs. Harrison into Scott Stapp, I was playing his music in her class (computer class, very fun) and she walks over and asks me "Who's that? He sounds pretty good" and I tell her it's Scott Stapp, former lead singer of Creed. She had head two Creed songs (higher and with arms wide open) and she liked both, and then she asked me "So is this Creed music?" and I told her no this is Scott Stapp solo, Creed broke up.... "So he has an album out or something" she asked, I said not yet but November 22 entitled The Great Divide and she wrote it down, the website and the date and CD title and said she would most definetly buy it he's great, so I burned her every Creed disc and gave it to her, she listened to them and she was blown away.....these two stories really touched my heart, just goes to show you don't really know people till music gets involved.....
