i've talked about it with one important music producer here.
i cannot find anything good in a Creed song but I certainly believe there's something good in what Justin Timberlake does.
I wouldn't buy him an album, I wouldn't go to one of his shows, I wouldn't even care to watch an special tv show about him.
but when you are in a 15 year old birthday party all you get is miranda! (a pop band from argentina), justin timberlake, black eyed peas. Boredom and the fact that I don't like dancing made me realise over the years that all those kind of teenie boppie bands have at least ONE good thing per song. ONE and only ONE good effect or good arrangement.

Well, I can find
something good in just about everything including Creed (I honestly kinda like my own prison), but that doesn't make it artistically valuable. It's light entertainment, and people eat that shit like fast food.
Actually, that might be a good analogy. Fast food may strive to serve healthy choices or exotic fajita wraps, but it's still fast food. There is nothing interesting there to an actual chef. So what if McDonalds has a new and successful ad campaign? Heh heh... featuring a Justin Timberlake "song".
I really like the guitar riff in this slipknot song, but it's still straight from an extra value menu for people who don't want to splurge on King Diamond.
