Radio edits suck!!!

[Mr. Prophet Man]

I hate listening to the songs from "weathered" on the radio. One station does this :

- In Sacrifice, the intro riff sounds ok, then when the heavy riffs start, you can barely hear the song, then the outro (till it fades) is like the loudest part of the song.

For OLB, it's the same way , but they got rid of the closing verses (when Stapp repeats the 1st line at the end)


It's better for me to listen to the actual CD because the edits are horrible.

I know what you mean..One day a while ago, I was listening to the radio and they played MOP, and they played the edited version AGAIN!! So, I called the station and asked why they cut out part of the verse, she told me it was the copy they got from the record company, man, that really pissed me off!! You go along singing the way you know it and they give some other version of the song, which in my opinion...SUCKS!! ;)

[Mr. Prophet Man]

i dont hear MOP stuff on the radio. You're lucky

[HigherGirl]

Yeah!!! i know what you mean!!
Ever hear Higher on the radio?
They totally chop it up....:( :mad:

Weathered is actually a cool song...but only on the cd. It sounds like they've added or removed something, I'm not sure. Just doesn't sound right.

I hate how My Sacrifice sounds on the radio. The one song you NEVER EVER hear on the radio is WAWO. Ever. Even when it came out I never heard it, only saw the video.

We have a new radio station that ROCKS and everyday I hear "What if", I think the DJ really likes it. I am always stoked to hear anything older by Creed. :D

I've probably heard WAWO and Higher more on radio than any of the others; I don't think I've ever heard What If on radio; the one Philly station WMMR plays MOP and One pretty often. From Weathered, I've heard Weathered some, My Sacrifice alot, OLB alot; think that's about it.:cool:

In Higher they cut out Mark's guitar part in the middle of the song. I really wish they would play the entire song instead of radio edit versions:mad:

It's as if every friggin song can't exceed 3:24, for crying out loud. Friggin marketing and consumer studies ruined radio, not to mention all the advertising. I was in the car one day and I timed all the commercials on this one station after it had played maybe three songs. There were 8 1/2 minutes of straight commercials. I'm disgusted with commercial radio. I can't wait to get a CD player for my car so I can listen to my tunes without the intrusion of constant demands for my coin and endless station promos of whatever *event* it is sponsoring...Ohhhhh, I miss the old FM days of album cuts. We had a station in Connecticut when I was a teenager that would play entire album sides uninterrupted once a week. It was awesome!

[PaulMcCoygirl]

Yeah those were the good old days........:(

[s.floridagirl]

I DON'T ever listen to the radio anymore. It's either a Creed CD OR Barney! What a switch!! NEEDLESS TO SAY, i LOVE WHEN MY KIDS AREN'T IN THE CAR!

[TeriB19]

For us it's either Spongebob or Creed. Those are your options, kids, pick one!!:D

ROFL!! Spongebob isn't an option in my van; can't stand that, that, whatever he is! (I know he's a sponge, to me he looks like a chunk of Swiss cheese!) Don't have a CD player in the vehicle, so I "station surf" for Creed or anything else that's remotely good (which is really hard to find!) :rolleyes:

[s.floridagirl]

I am slowly breaking the kids into Creed. Let the brain washing begin!!:P

I know what you mean, Dogstar. I get so sick of the commercials on the radio!:mad: I hardly ever listen to the radio anymore. Most of the time I have my portable CD player with me in the car and listen to my own music. I remember when the station here in CT played a whole album side but unfortunately I think it's a thing of the past.:(

Glad to hear you're playing Creed for your kids, s.floridagirl. I think that's great.:) :crest: :crest:

Weathered radio edit is missen a verse or 2. Same wit the WTLF and teh My sac edit has no into, and soudns funny. Its cuz creed sonsg r so much longer than normal songs and the yhavta shorten em up 4 some reason.

[Dogstar]

Yes, because the morons who run radio apparently think we all have the attention span of a flea...:mad:

[creedfan47a]

On the weekends, one of our stations plays "10 in a row". They play 10 songs in a row with no commercials in between (but a bit of quick talking), which is good, but then they play about 10-15 commercials all in a row to make up for it!! :mad:

And speaking of radio edits being chopped up, I get so irritated by the fact that whenever Lightning Crashes by Live is played, they skip the entire first verse. Do they do that in America?? I can't STAND it!! :mad: It's such a beautiful song and they just chop it to pieces!! :madder:

Agreed. It sounds like a whole heap of noise on the radio.
