Creed, Framed

Posted Tue 29 Sep 2009 3:29PM NZDT by John Kordosh in Framed

Hidey ho, readers, and welcome back to Framed, America's greatest blog. It is here--and only here!--that you'll read captions to still pictures pulled from today's greatest music videos that are so funny that several of you will likely die from excessive laughter in just a few moments.

Ahem.

Speaking of funny, when we heard that Creed had reformed, we thanked whatever God we pray to and queued up their new video. Oh, we weren't disappointed, and you won't be, either. Frankly, this is something we can treasure collectively as a species. Heck, let's see what Rolling Stone had to say about the event:

"Five years after their highly acrimonious split, Creed are reforming for a new album and an American tour, which kick(ed) off August 6th in Pittsburgh and runs through October 14th. 'I wouldn't call it a reunion,' says singer Scott Stapp. 'It's a renewing and a rebirth. I missed my boys and wanted to create music with them again. We're all thrilled to have a second chance to make a first impression.'"

Not a reunion, eh? Missed the boys, eh?  Damn, this sounds great! Best of all, the new tune and video--"Overcome"--are classic Creed. Get ready, readers: you're going backstage with Creed and onstage with Creed this week!  Everything's comin' up Milhouse!

We know that Creed has their share of naysayers, but we'd like to note that a "Creed Rocks" Google search turns up 2.01 million hits, while a "Creed Sucks" search generates a paltry 1.17 million. So humanity at large has pretty much decided that Creed is OK.

But, as always, we leave it to you, our valued readers: is Creed the greatest band ever, or are they tied with someone? Vote now!

 

1 -- "You! Yeah, you, Framed! You and me! Outside! Right now!!"

 

2 -- The government's "Signs For Freaking Idiots" program is off to a damn fine start!

 

3 -- "Let's see. Eggs. Ragu Pizza Sauce. Lipton's Noodle Soup. And, of course, the fixin's for tasty Smores."

 

4 -- "Jesus. I could've sworn there was a rubber tree plant here just moments ago."

 

5 -- The tribute to Lou was, in a word, top-notch!

 

6 -- "Angry that I'm making millions doing nothing of any consequence? You're damn right I am!"

 

7 -- "All praise and thanks to Satan!"

 

8 -- "And, listen, tell Kid Rock it's a go for tonight, OK?"

 

9 -- Scientists were surprised to learn that even one point three heads were better than one!

 

10 -- But with the Justice Leaguers dead or in prison, could Isometrics Man defeat Pumpkinhead alone?!

 

11 -- "And, in addition to the birth certificate, we demand proof that he isn't personally responsible for every bad thing that's ever happened!"

 

12 -- "We must leave you now, Earth! And though our journey to the watery worlds of Procyon A promises to be harrowing, we'll return with even more pompous, empty songs! We promise!"

Isometric Man? I did not think you could get any more hilarious, Kordosh, but you outdid yourself on this installment. Every single caption was hilarious (and not corny). You may keep your job. (For now, at least.)

2. Yahoo! Music User -
Procyon A ? I was there once, when I accidentally drove into a canal on Alligator Alley in South Florida.

3. Karen -
I usually look so forward to each installment of "Framed"...but this one missed completely. Not a single frame solicited so much as a chuckle. Looking forward to next week.
