I never go the hate either. It seemed like once it started, it became a mob mentality, and cool to hate Creed. Good to see Scott Stapp is out touring again.
@@Redlinesixtynine They were a Christian band. They all get mocked by the people who cover one eye, throw up the horns, pose for pictures with goats and snakes, film their videos on checkerboard tiles, etc. There's no great mystery why they hated the guys singing about Christ.
@@kenfresno2125it’s cause they’re cheesy and tacky. They cornered a weak market and capitalized on it. It’s not because of Christ, it’s cause Stapp is a dork. Alter Bridge is 10000000x better than Creed ever was.
Congratulations. At the time of writing this comment, I'm 35 and I found out in February that I have a brain tumor. I've been going through treatment and fighting my absolute hardest. At first I was told the tumor was malignant and couldn't be beaten. I was told that without treatment I had about 13 months at most before it took my life; and with treatment I had 2-3 years at most. Then 2 weeks before I finished my first round of chemo, and completed radiation treatment (4 weeks), I was told by my doctors that somehow my tumor had shrunk exponentially. As a result, they predicted that I have 5-10 years worst case scenario, and best case scenario they believe that I can win this fight and beat this tumor. Creed has been my favorite band ever since the first time I heard Higher in '99 or 2000. And their music has helped me through some on my hardest times; just like how it continues to help me push forward right now and never give up.
I remember watching this with my dad. He wasn’t much into hard rock, but he liked this song. I lost my dad in January of this year , 2024. “I just want to say hello again” I’m in tears. Miss ya dad.
Lost my dad almost ten years ago. You’ll always miss him but you’ll carry him with you everywhere you go and you will meet him again I promise 💪🏽 keep your chin up brother
@@509allthetime thanks for the kind words. I am part of him therefore he is part of me. Forever and always. Doesn’t seem to make it any easier him being gone. Again thank you for your kind words
They're actually worshipping God. They literally subverted the entire music establishment with their music. This is also why they're mocked by a lot of people.
I listen to this song every morning and day. I’m a 37 year old mother of 2, who has battled addiction for years. This song, and Scott Stapps lyrics, helped me to reclaim life after losing it all to Heroin. Thank you Creed 🙏
Addiction is terrible. Sad how people look at people with addiction problems differently depending on what they are addicted too! Good luck to you. I hope life is going well for you 😉
I know it sounds weird to say this, but Creed was the best concert I've ever been to! I saw them live with my mom (RIP) back during the 2012 Human Clay tour, I'm telling you, these guys had that crowd more hyped than any other bands I've seen at that venue. Creed sounded exactly like the album, Scott's vocals were freaking perfect, everyone was killing it. I will cherish that memory forever because my mom was with me, she passed away in January of 2018 and she was my best friend. Her name was Kim and she was 56yo when she passed away, she was a beautiful soul and she made me who I am. RIP Mom, I love you and I miss you very much. 🙏❤
It’s good you have a beautiful experience to cherish with your Mom. I also lost my mother acouple years ago. Sorry for your loss. RIP Kim. Much love brother ❤
@@venge2206 thank you, I really appreciate that and I'm sorry for your loss as well. Once you lose someone you love, you learn to appreciate all of the little things that you shared together. I've always had a rocky relationship with my dad, and it got worse when I moved in with him after my mom passed, but now I have the strongest relationship with him that I've ever had. It definitely changes your perspective on life, sorry for your loss as well brother. 🙏🤝🤜🤛
Don't ever listen to the people who say Creed or Nickleback sucked. Deep down they loved one or both of them at some point. I'm 33 and still play their shit on an everyday basis
Creed was a much better band...Stapp at least had something to say....Nickleback had too many songs about strippers partying excess drugs ect ect....writing about that crap is shallow and is forgotten very soon....the hate was well deserved for NB They took the money and were puppets....any real musician can't keep a straight face when someone tries to make them seem legit...concert tickets and albums sales don't make you great or the real deal....imo
Only liked this tune and Higher. Otherwise, Creed sucked. I mean, look at his stupid face. If it weren't for his tatts, he could be in a boyband. And don't even get me started on Nickleback
My high school crush gave me a Creed cassette tape for Christmas. The class drew lots and we drew each other. This was my favorite song on there. She was smart and attractive. My heart would beat uncontrollably fast whenever she was near me. Unfortunately we had a falling out in college and never talked again. I hope she's happy now wherever she is.
@@manelicvaltierrez4773 No need to tell her as I could not have been more obvious. Girls are not as dense as men so she knew. She is married now too and I have a significant other as well. I really just wish her well. It was a wonderful memory. 🙂
Bro...first time I heard/seen this on WWF was after 9/11, they played this with montage of firefighters who were the first responders. Made me tears up back then, still does now.
@@zacparker8681 Hi friend, I may be butting in but just wanted to share that a lot Creed's lyrics and music videos portray things that occur in The Bible and how believers of JESUS feel and go through.
This song always reminds me of the Attitude Era in WWF. Thank you Stone Cold, Rock, Triple H, HBK, Undertaker, the Hardys, Edge & Christian, the Dudleys and everyone of those performers that sacrificed their bodies to entertain me and not letting me fall in to drugs and gangs like the rest of my friends at the time. Thank you guys 🙏
Agreed. Also, this video doesn't quite live up to the WWE videos that featured this song. It was much more inspiring with outtakes of Edge and HHH. The legitimate video feels rather anticlimactic in comparison
Que saudade da MTV! Saudade da espectativa,do horário dos programas ,saudade de pegar o ônibus correndo pra chegar em casa e ligar a tv,saudade de arrumar a antena da tv pra imagem da MTV ficar boa ! Era um tempo bom ! Somos os últimos da geração sem redes sociais ! Valorinse-se !
Sim era diferente. Mesmo sem MTV, a primeira vez que ouvi acerca dos Creed foi na TVI por volta de 2000. Havia acho aos sábados de manhã Top+ ou algo assim com o Fernando Alvim e Pedro Marques. Os resumos de 20 musicas em passavam o clip de meia dúzia...por vezes aparecia Creed " can you take me higher to a place..."
Anyone that understands this song and album...hang on, you going thru the valley of the shadow of death...crazy to most??? Been there. This band knows some shit. Damn. God Bless and love all
This song means so much to me. As a kid creed was one of my dads favorite bands and when this song came on we’d always jam out. Last year he died in a semi truck crash. Whenever this song comes on it always reminds me of him and the meaning of this song is so much deeper now.
I feel like most of the songs that hit me hard in my feelings are literal passages of knowledge from dudes that ain’t even with us no more, like they sang for us as children to grow up and understand what they meant.
It’s amazing how music has no walls or boundaries only those created by others who don’t appreciate good music. I feel this is a defensive mechanism because they’re afraid to get hurt my deep lyrics that a lot of these songs have but nobody really pays attention too.
It's April of 2021 and we've all been through more than a year of "sacrifices" now. Indeed, it's been feeling like forever. Keep safe and God bless everyone who happens to drop by this video for some nostalgia.
I realized, you would not even know that you are sacrificing something for someone you love. It's just how it is 🧡🧡🧡 Automatic reaction of a lovin heart
My brother and I loved Creed - especially this song. I lost my brother in June 2019, but he is always with me in the music that we shared and loved together. 'I just want to say hello again.'
My mom would listen to Creed a lot when I was younger. Now she’s passed on and this music means a lot to me! I miss her dearly!! This shit is tough! Struggling everyday to accept it….. Love you mom!!! 😞🕊️🌹
Creed is no longer a band. Scott Stapp(singer) and Mark Tremonti(Guitarist) had "creative differences" but, I just assume it has to do with Scott Stapp's addiction to drugs supported by the fact that he was essentially penniless in 2014. Tremonti is still heavily focused on his solo stuff and Alter Bridge(Check them out) so, he isn't planning on reuniting with Stapp to resurrect Creed in the near future. Evidently they haven't even been close friends for a while now.
Leland Harris i think they tried reuniting around 2014 or 2013. Dont know what happened but im pretty sure loke what you said its scott drug addiction. He posted how people are after him and other delusions.
Essa música possui um significado imenso na minha vida, por incrível que pareça só vim ver a tradução 19 anos depois desde que foi lançada. Lembro me de estar me recuperando de uma cirurgia que passei quando criança de um suposto tumor maligno no dedo mínimo de minha mão direita. lembro me quando meu irmão escutava essa música enquanto eu ficava deitada na rede olhando o céu pela janela, e mesmo tão pequena sem nunca ter visto a tradução eu sabia que na letra havia algo que acalmava meu coração e a dor física que eu estava sentindo, e tudo naquele momento passava e eu me sentia nas nuvens com 6 anos de idade. E podem acreditar, hoje com 20 anos o sentimento e a sensação de escutar essa música é a mesma. Essa música é minha vida, acreditem. 💜
+Isabelly Souza Quando a música tem sentimento, não importa o idioma ou qualquer outra barreira, ela sempre irá nos tocar. Muito bonito o seu relato, parabéns para vc e seu irmão.
Never got why Creed and Nickelback got hated on so much...this is talent. Good soulful tunes with great messages. Missing from today's so called music.
Nickleback is considered a sell out because they would take any deal offered, and creed got labeled a Christian rock band due to the lyrics and message for most of their songs even tho they argued they weren't plus the lead singer had substance problems which always impacts a reputation and legacy but it didn't stop them from being one of the top 10 selling artists of the 2000s
Only way I’ve found is gym or cardio if you can manage. My knees are going to crap so it’s harder. Go get that dopamine hit on a stationary bike and then hop in a sauna after if you have a gym around you that has one. Good luck
Lyrics Hello my friend we meet again It's been a while where should we begin? Feels like forever Within my heart are memories Of perfect love that you gave to me Oh I remember When you are with me, I'm free I'm careless, I believe Above all the others we'll fly This brings tears to my eyes My sacrifice We've seen our share of ups and downs Oh how quickly life can turn around In an instant It feels so good to reunite Within yourself and within your mind Let's find peace there 'Cause when you are with me, I'm free I'm careless, I believe Above all the others we'll fly This brings tears to my eyes My sacrifice I just want to say hello again I just want to say hello again 'Cause when you are with me, I'm free I'm careless, I believe Above all the others we'll fly This brings tears to my eyes 'Cause when you are with me, I'm free I'm careless, I believe Above all the others we'll fly This brings tears to my eyes My sacrifice My sacrifice (I just want to say hello again) I just want to say hello again My sacrifice
I don't have much time the rebels found out I didn't vote for Trump and are trying to break in. you have to get to the bunker under Denver Airport the keypad code is 0123 it's the door near Auntie Ann's Pretzels before the Nukes Launch. Trump is like that kid who flips the board game over if they lose.
I'm from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. This song is helping me during the tragedy in the state of Rio Grande, for those that don't know whats going on, the whole state is submerged on the floods caused by the terrible tempest that happened sinse past week (29/04/2024). There are thousands of people homeless, drowned and dead right now. We need help!
I know what you’re saying Hannah. In 10 years though, we’ll all be talking about something from these times and how we’d like to go back. Admittedly not much is good now, music film and tv are all verging on pointless these days. So my point ... enjoy the present moment. Easier said than done isn’t it though!!! Ps I’ve always really liked the name Hannah 😃
I kept hearing this song in my head for years after I left the military and I could never figure out who sang this song. It damn near drove me nuts. I found this song after humming the tunes on google about a month ago, not even knowing the words. It made me cry cause, it brought back so many memories. Thank you Creed for "My sacrifice".
@@luizafreire7145 e isso aí, parece que quanto mais o tempo passa piores as construções sonoras vão ficando, acredito que o que tinha de melhor em matéria de músicas, já foram estabelecidas por bandas como Creed, e nada mais que for feito a partir de então, vai atingir um nível tão grande de qualidade quanto as músicas da nossa época.
@@fabiorobertogoncalves6915 você mandou bem no seu comentário , hoje em dia não se vê lançamento nenhum com o nível das bandas antigas , felizmente temos o RU-vid para nós recordarmos de tudo isso .
Call me stupid, call me corny but I am glad I grew up listening to bands like Creed. Their music had meaning behind it, it had soul, it had the it factor that still lasts today. Creed is one of the all time greats IMO. They did not have just one good song, They did not have just one awesome song, every song they put out was a massive hit.
Yes mate. This is music. By talented musicians who actually played instruments. Not like today's millenial woke snowflake social media instagram black lives matter generation. These poor suckers have to listen to stormzy and billy eilish. I genuinely feel sorry for them. I really do.

Hoy 17 de Marzo de 2024 primera vez que escucho la que es para mi, la mejor canción que escuché en mi vida. Sabiendo que voy a ser papá, que dios me bendiga a mi y a todo aquel que se detuvo a leer mi comentario
Man, this takes me back to fall/winter 2001. We were just recovering from 9/11... I was 14 years old and just kinda finding myself. I liked Creed, then in my 20s they were “lame”, and now here I am 20 years later at almost 34, reliving my youth through old songs and rocking out. Hope the neighbors don’t mind.
I was 31 in 2001. Prime of my life when some of the best music was made. AMAZING TIMES. 9/11 was shocking & horrendous. But as a country we ...well. ...you were around....very different world back then.
@@dollymadison2397 Yes indeed. I was 32 at that time. A very different USA 🇺🇸 Country & world 🌎 back then. As you and I both remember though...on September 11th, 2001 that night, and especially when everyone woke up the next day...we were ALL on the same T-E-A-M. TEAM USA! 🇺🇸 No Cancel Culture BS...Everyone On TEAM USA! 🇺🇸 God Bless America.🙏 🇺🇸
I was pregnant with my daughter when this song was released,I was 19 and terrified ,now my daughter is the same age as me when I had her and she loves this song .
@@fordsrule35 same here mate..we all are getting old..this song along with alanis morissette's Hands clean was all over MTV at that time..i remember it very clearly..
My brother was in and out of the hospital and this song was a comfort for me during a hard time. RIP "Itchy" Rich, we had lots of good times and for the bad times I have Creed. We'd go on multiple trips to the clinic a week and the whole way we were just blaring creed brother. towards the end I could tell Rich was becoming less fond of Creed so I had to tone it down a bit but man were there some good times. Creed made me see life through a different lens and helped me understand it in a deeper way. I just hope it did the same for you bro
@@jasonpeters3122 2 different bands with 3/4 of the same members who are equally good in their own ways and sound different to eaxh other. Not easy when 3 members are in both bands. Both are great.
Reminds me of high school .....I was a furniture mover/ delivery. ....lots of time in trucks with heavy metal fans. Learned ALOT. This was always a solid tune.
This song just connects with my soul , I think about my grandparents that have now passed now , when this plays when I’m running I just kick into another gear nothing can stop me
This is the song my dad showed me and he said he would do anything for me he would sacrifice himself for me P.S My name is Creed I’m named after this band
I dedicated Arms Wide Open to my son when he was born and we still listen to it today and he knows how strong and deeply I love him and would do anything for him also
Can't quite believe this was 22 years ago, time has flown very quickly. When you get older it does that to you. Anyway, what a song this has been for me over the years, and I'm sure for you as well. We all have memories to share about this track, I'm in my early 40s now, so I was naive and young when this came out originally. Wherever you are or whatever age you belong to, let's appreciate this iconic song, it's needed now more than ever.
As I grow older and into adult life, this hit different. So many things happen in life. Words can't describe everything. A decade had passed. This song send a roller coaster of emotion to me right now. Full blast of goosebumps as I close my eyes while listening this music and I go back to my early life. This is my time machine. Please someone make FHD and remaster version for this band.
As a child (4/5 years old) My mother had the video CD of their greatest hits in the drawer below her tv, She was always working and my brothers and I were always home alone, we used to play this music and became obsessed with it, I didn’t know how to speak English, Now as and adult I come back and listen to these songs after everything we went through as brothers this always brings me back to those times were it was just us three in the house being kids having to look out for each other. Creed will forever hold a place in my childhood vault. They were worldwide with it, I was raised in Guatemala and everyone knew about them.
Me lembro do professor de inglês lá por 2006 trazer pra aula um radinho bolinha com cd do Creed e com a letra imprimida da My sacrifice. Era pra todos escutar e cantar junto, depois traduzir a música. Que época memorável, a partir dali comecei a curtir demais! Letras carregadas de sentimentos e melodia perfeita! ❤🇧🇷
Yea & this was a major PPV they used this as the song. I think madden used this song to if I'm not mistaken or I just use to sing it while kicking ppl ass lol
