Penyanyi 90an: Creed, dari Sukses di Bar hingga Bubar

Fimela.com, Jakarta Jika berbicara tentang band rock di era 90-an dengan tembang cinta yang melegenda hingga kini, Creed bisa menjadi salah satu jawabannya. Ketika bersama, band ini banyak mengukir cerita yang penuh suka dan duka.

Dibentuk tahun 1993 silam di Florida, band ini digawangi oleh Scott Stapp (vokalis), Mark Tremonti (gitar), Brian Marshall (bassis), Scott Phillips (drum), dan Brian Brasher (gitar rhythm). Namun, Brasher memilih untuk hengkang tahun 1995.

Setelah berjuang dengan 4 personel, Creed perlahan-lahan meraih sukses dengan dimulai dengan bermain di bar dan venue-venue kecil. Tiga album berhasil dilahirkan sampai akhirnya konflik menyulut bubarnya band ini tahun 2004.

Lima tahun berselang, Creed reuni dengan album bertajuk Full Circle (2009). Mereka juga menyelesaikan serangkaian tur pada akhir tahun 2012. Sejak itu, masing-masing personel disibukkan dengan project dan membuat Creed tidak lagi terdengar.

Kendati demikian, karya-karya Creed berhasil menjadi legenda hingga kini. Yuk kembali nostalgia era 90-an dengan salah satu tembang dari mereka seperti berikut ini.

Creed - Higher

When dreaming I'm guided to another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets

Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets

So let's go there
So let's go there
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?

Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

Set up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets

Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets
