Good point, V.  As I've already stated, I haven't watched MTV in YEARS, and I watch VERY LITTLE VH1.  I've NEVER been really big on music videos, even  of Metallica.  I'd much rather just LISTEN to it, and form my own visuals using my very active imagination.

That's not my point.  The larger critique aims at the tendency towards the
televisation of music.  Image, image, image.  I thought this music was
wonderful because it touched you folks.  Now things are getting a bit
clearer.  Marketing plays as much a role as anything in the affinity for
Creed.  And man do they have great promoters.

 Except that you're forgetting the rather large number of us that were fans of Creed before television even knew who they were....before a single video was ever aired, or a single tv performance was ever broadcast.  Stop trying to convince the fans that we're not fans Marc, it's pointless, much like most everything you've submitted to the list thus far.  God, you're annoying.
