Flip and Mark have said kind words to Scott as well!! Just read this interview, Flip said a couple of times that Scott is an AMAZING singer!!
Yes, but you don't have to be happy just because you win many awards!! Their so happy in Alter Bridge with Brian and Myles!!

I agree with Dogstar here. I read it like Mark wrote these lyrics for Creed songs or while he was in Creed, not that he wrote 60-70% of the Creed lyrics. This writer here is very confusing.

This whole argument started due to a horribly written article.
What Phillips was saying was that Tremonti wrote 60-70% of Alter Bridge's material. The author has added that little (with Creed) bit and it's made the whole quote quite confusing. If you take out that bit, it reads like: That certainly isn't confusing. He's talking about Alter Bridge in the first paragraph. I think the writer was implying that Mark wrote the 60-70% of lyrics etc whilest still technically in Creed. But she's done it poorly. Speaking of which, Weathered's linear notes say "Lyrics and Vocals Scott Stapp", and "Guitars and Bass Mark Tremonti". While I'd have thought that there were times when Stapp was a little blocked, or Tremonti wasn't sure of the direction the song should take, or Phillips wasn't certain on how to approach the drumming, and the other band members (and the whole team behind Creed) helped out, that second paragraph leads me to believe that Weathered was a record written with very defined jobs, that noone was open to suggestions from other bandmates. It seems all members of Creed are happy with the current situation, so I don't see why there should be divide between Stapp fans and Alter Bridge fans. Unfortunately I've seen it before, when At the Drive-In split up to Sparta and The Mars Volta, a lot of people stuck with one side or the other. Considering I've not heard anything from Stapp (I'm NOT installing Real Audio. No. No. No.), I'm not saying anything, but if the Tea Party are playing the music, it's got to be good! Why can't people enjoy both branches of the Creed tree? |

What I think happened with Creed's lyrics is that Mark had most of the initial ideas and perhaps had the chorus down and than Stapp would come in and tidy things up and the lyrics would vastly improve. So Mark would write 60-70% of the lyrics but its that missing 30 from scott that makes all the difference. take a creed song like "is this the end" (i think scott did this 100% but i'm not certain) and compare it to anything on ODR......the comparison is laughable in a lyrical sense.

And yet you're in the Alter Bridge forum. The forum you want is the next one down.

Lol, I wasn't around when this thread was originally posted, but I gotta say good work on posting something from the Flint Journal, my hometown newspaper! I remember reading it in the paper. Anyway, how did Lith, a guy from Sweden(right?!?) find out about this interview? Flint sure as heck isn't a huge city or anything.

Yeah, I'm from Sweden. Stockholm actually. Actually Chris posted it on the Alter-Bridge.net board and I just copied that and posted it here.
