I believe the lyrics are about a man coming to realize he’s aging and half the man is the period when he won’t be in his prime for too long and moving to post prime etc
"Feeling uninspired, think I'll start a fire" has new meaning for me after listening for years and years. That's why I love music. It's poetry. It's art.
the only decent thing about the movie the big short is the line "truth is like poetry. and most people fucking hate poetry." fuck poetry, im just here for cool sounds.
@@anthonygrych8724 didn't even take note of it rhyming, but I will say it's sad you can't hear the meaning of that line. Simple thoughts for a simple person I guess.
@@kloiebraelynn8875 Prince of Persia (2008) had two characters, the prince and the princess. They were arguing all along the game on whether art is good. Prince was a poor, philistine, uneducated thief, and the princess the opposite: educated and kept within the castle walls. It gets really interesting if you think about it, and the debate is less about art and more about spirituality. People who think humans are special and have souls love art. People who think of human brain as a totally physical machine don't respect art. These are the people who'll say AI generated art is also art, unlike their opponents, who say AI art is soulless.

I'm 13 and I have a great dad who went to the local flea market with me and recommended some CD's. This is my favorite one he recommended. Core is such a great album. Thanks STP.
Funny story: When this song came out in 93-94 I was 19 years old. The name of the song always eluded me on the radio (they never mentioned the artist or title) and when I sang it to people they had no idea what I song I was talking about. I was sure it was Nirvana so I listened to every Nirvana album trying to find it and never did. I gave up and eventually forgot about it. 10 years later around 2003 it came on the radio and that's when the DJ said "Stone Temple Pilots with Creep". I laughed in the car and then cried thinking about how 10 years earlier I was sitting in my parents house scrambling to find the song, and how time had seemingly passed so fast. Now I'm a grown man. Funny memories...
Lyrics 🖤 Forward yesterday, Makes me wanna stay What they said was real, Makes me wanna steal Livin' under house, Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse All's I got is time, Got no meanin', just a rhyme Take time with a wounded hand, 'Cause it likes to heal Take time with a wounded hand, "Cause I like to steal Take time with a wounded hand, 'Cause it likes to heal I like to steal I'm half the man I used to be (This I feel as the dawn, it fades to gray) Well, I'm half the man I used to be (This I feel as the dawn, it fades to gray) Well, I'm half the man I used to be (This I feel as the dawn, it fades to gray) Well, I'm half the man I used to be, Half the man I used to be Feelin' uninspired, Think I'll start a fire Everybody run, Bob has got a gun Think you're kinda neat, Then she tells me I'm a creep Friends don't mean a thing, Guess I'll leave it up to me Take time with a wounded hand, 'Cause it likes to heal Take time with a wounded hand, "Cause I like to steal Take time with a wounded hand, 'Cause it likes to heal I like to steal I'm half the man I used to be (This I feel as the dawn ...

It fades to gray) Well, I'm half the man I used to be, Half the man I used to be, Half the man I used to be
This song takes me back to a time when the world seemed simpler, and the weight of life hadn't settled in so heavily. Each note is a poignant reminder of moments lost, of dreams that slipped through fingers like grains of sand. It's a melancholic symphony, an anthem for the broken-hearted souls who find solace in the haunting beauty of sorrow. I find myself drowning in the waves of nostalgia, clinging to the echoes of what once was, but can never be again.

@@BASSyxwni your still young I’m 26 a lot changed since I was your ago even though I’m not much older. Enjoy life man! And never take it for granted! I lost my bestfriend to drugs at age 25..I can tell you have a good taste in music bro rock was always my favorite and then rap
@@Thatguy55595 im sorry to hear about your loss man. I was forced to grow up at a young age and dealt with addiction in my own family ever since i could remember. When i was going through those hard times it was songs like this and simple man and chris cornell that got me through it!!
RIP to Scott, Chris, Layne and Kurt. I'm an old dude and the 60's were a great time for music. The second best was right here in the 90's. From grunge to bands like Pantera and White Zombie to Beck and so many others. It was fresh. It was different. It was a good time to be young.
@@jefffriedmann1482 Back then I was totally Death To Disco. Now, after winning the battle, I can enjoy SOME disco. But I love the funk and the TSOP and other really cool stuff that came out then. No one heard of punk or glam and now most bands try to copy what we had 50 years ago 😆😆
My heart is truly heavy for his loved ones. I am in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction so I am familiar with the battle. RIP Scott! Rock on in the sky!
+Melinda Rhodes good luck and I hope you beat it....I have lost a step son and good friend to demons they weren't able to overcome....I'm sure there are a lot of people wishing there was something they could have done for Scott.
Last year I lost my cousin of an overdose and I lost my brother only a month prior where alcoholism played a role. Only a month after my cousin died a friend of 20 years over dosed. I overdose and came close to that a few times. But thankfully I was able to overcome the dark demons that keep me in the dark world. I just wish the others had to the strength to get clean and sober as well.
Shit now isn't terrible, u just have different taste. Dont spread hate bc u are unappreciative of all sound/creativity. These lyrics dont make sense nor can u understand him half the time but its still enjoyable... lol
Many singers of the 1990s had the gift of representing the pain of young people in an increasingly competitive and soulless society. They told teenagers that sometimes feeling bad is ok, that anger and pain were part of the human path. Unfortunately today, there are no such singers anymore, the money and this sick narcissism killed any creativity in music. This young generation, the selfie generation, is already doomed. I hope the next generation will be smarter and more rebellious.
To tell you the truth, there are still outcasts who are waiting for the day when their voices will be heard. Hang in there, cuz rock music will return.
Matt Moves Totally agree. There's always some asshole in these comments who talks about how rock music is doing "just fine", but man I couldn't disgaree more. Since the start of the 2010's it seems like there might be 3-4 albums the entire year I'll enjoy, and the last 2 years or so I'm lucky to find one new rock song I like every 3-4 months. I enjoy a wide array of rock styles, so bands like Tame Impala, Cage The Elephant, and Arctic monkeys, can go side by side with Mastodon and Queens of the stone age in my playlists. But I hate having to wait all year to only end up with 2-3 great rock albums. In the 90's you had entire ALBUMS worth of great material from everyone like Incubus, RHCP, Beck, Nirvana, STP, Green Day, Bush, Alice in Chains, Pantera, R.E.M, Weezer, Soundgarden, Rage against the machine, Oasis, Days of The New, Third Eye Blind, etc etc. These bands were releasing new music in the prime of their artistic abilities, side by side in the same calender year. The airwaves were full of songs by these bands, and other artists who had hits. There was never a dull moment, or lack of quality/diversity. There is definatly a stark contrast in the amount of quality rock being put out now, no doubt about it.
Forward yesterday Makes me wanna stay What they said was real Makes me wanna steal Livin' under house Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse All's I gots is time Got no meaning, just a rhyme Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause it likes to heal Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause I like to steal Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray Well, I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray Well, I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be Feelin' uninspired Think I'll start a fire Everybody run Bobby's got a gun Think you're kinda neat Then she tells me I'm a creep Friends don't mean a thing Guess I'll leave it up to me Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause it likes to heal Take time with a wounded hand Guess I like to steal Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause it likes to heal Take time with a wounded hand Guess I like to steal Take time with a wounded hand 'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray I'm half the man I used to be This I feel as the dawn It fades to gray I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be, Half the man I used to be
This song hits harder than when I was a kid, I’m 45 and I saw these guys live many times. The further away I get from that time in my life the further away I get from knowing myself and the closer I get to being completely lost…
Its been said we discover ourselves when we take ourselves down and lose ourselves when we move further away from the moments/things in life that caused our most prominent changes/influence
These replies are lame with livelaughlove advice. I'm 41, I feel you. I miss the me that didn't give a 2nd thought to throwing on a belly chain, plaid skirt & finding creative passions in everything & adventures of possibility while dancing to loud rock on late nights. That sparkle in our eyes from then. I feel the floating & it sucks, you're right
Takes me back to when I was a kid and was Free! Literally Free from the government and this stupid phone and the Internet and social media! When kids played with sticks and rocks and dirt and had a blast doing it! That was true freedom! God Bless and RIP my brother! 🙏 SLUMERICAN 4 LIFE ⚡⚡🙏😘✌️🤟👽💙
We peaked in the 90s people. Everything from that time forward is on the losing side of momentum we had as human beings. The most beautiful part of it all is that we all shared it together of you are reading this today... Look back and smile for joy is fleeting and increasingly rare..
Is crazy because we really didn’t understand how good it was. People weren’t so fake, we had hope, and people care about each other regardless of background. Not to mention the lack of worry. It’s like a literal dream now.
I was a rave dj from 95-2003. It was literally paradise on earth. People loved one another. Love was an actual thing people shared and felt between people. It wrapped you like a warm blanket.. Hate was not as prevalent in people's hearts. It was the closest we got to ending racism as we all tried to be better toward eachother. Music was amazing. People were attractive and unique and interesting. Conversation was real and people were MODEST. The idea of "influencer" was a disgusting idea and peoplelike that were seen as ego-maniacs and psychopaths.. You had to OWN knowlege as it was in YOUR MEMORY not in your POCKET.. Social media destroyed earth and we will see this after the third world war... Love your brothers and sisters as this dream is over before you realize it had begun...
Best chorus ever especially how they made like a double chorus. It was already very good and powerful with just the "take time with a wounded hand" part but once added with "I feel as the dawn it fades to gray", then that's just pure gold!
the chorus is the type of riff that is so good you learn it by ear after a single hearing and vibe to it completely in a trance music doesn't get better than this, the overlapping vocals did most of the impression here indeed. Great comment
Honda Rider 26 Ya know , when I posted that AIC Comment I meant to say The Acoustical Version Of “Down in a Hole” But , still you’re there are similarities, Tones/Lyric Inflections .....Btw, you ride? So do I , Ninja ZX1400
That’s awesome dude, it’s honestly one of the best genres of rock out there, but it’s just such a shame it died out so fast like a good flame it went out twice as fast as a bad one, all because we lost Kurt Cobain, and Layne, so soon, to soon... but at least we can still enjoy the era when it reined supreme.
@@joshshrum2764 Most grunge sounds alot like Southern rock mixed with alternative anyways to me. Although when I looked it up it says Punk, and alternative, lol, it goes better with bands like Sixty watt Shaman, Alabama Thunderpussy. Not any punk band that I've ever heard. The internet doesn't even define grunge very well. There's plenty of good stuff out there still. Although losing any great singer, and band sucks. Plus in the old days things were so reliant on channels like Mtv, and Vh1, nowadays you dont even need radio stations, just plug your cell phone into the car stereo, and listen to whatever you want.
My 12-yr. Old grandson introduced me to Nirvana. I lost my mind. 😂 Then I discovered Soundgarden and lost my mind again. Been overdosing on Alice in Chains for awhile now cause ......Layne! 🥰. Time to give STP a try. The Interstate Love song was the first one I heard and loved. I'm 61 . Better late than never? 🤷
Having never listened to this version of the song (always listened on the original album) honestly this version genuinely gave me chills. It feels so much more personal and just real. Something about it, absolutely incredible.
Yeah the "think you're kinda neat..." part sounds detached and apathetic in the original, but in this version, it sounds so much more raw and visceral.
Can't express how much this song means to me, it helped me so much in my darkest of days, whenever I get sad I just listen to this song, and it never fails to console me, never fails to say that "you are not alone in this".Rip Scott.
The 90's gave us 4 of the best and most original vocalists in rock history: Layne Staley, Chris Cornell, Eddy Vedder and Scott Weiland. Let's never forget that Scott was one of the greatest.
you miss a lot of vocalists. 90s were times when there was like a burst of vocalists. yorke, cobain, chester, cornell, mark lanegan,weiland, vedder, staley, till lindemann, dolores, reznor, stipe, kiedis, anselmo and many more (i know some of these bands started late 80's but they got noticed in early 90's)
This song takes me back to high school. My brothers got this album and stumbled onto this song. Reminds me of days when nothing mattered but enjoying our youth and hanging out with each other. August 5th, 2021 I lost my younger brother "Bio" and then 4 months and 4 days later on December 9th, 2021 I lost my older brother "shush". This song brings back all our memories. I want all those days back. Then we thought we had our whole lives ahead of us. Now it's just my younger sister and I. The memories I have of us will be forever cherished.
there have been a few good bands both new and resurgences like Hum is working on an album for the first time since Downward is Heavenward, Soundgarden's back, and some of the newer ones like Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Middle Class Rut are bad ass. But in general, yeah you are right.
this song makes me remember how reckless and care free I was in my youth, now I find myself buried under a ton of responsibilities that only help to breakdown my spirit and dim my hopes and dreams. as I go down this road, I look back and realize that I'm only a shadow of the person I used to be
To me, its how shame sounds. Its how my shame sounds. Its half hearted for me. I'll say "I promise I won't do this again." And then some time later I'll go an do it and feel like this. Half the man I used to be.
Alejandro Meza haha thats deep as fuck bro smoke a joint brother an just chill. Whos to say ur not on top of all ur shit an then all of a sudden u stroke out tomo. Gotta have a balance.
This song brings tears to my eyes, and reminds me of a deep, dark place I was in my life... at 28, still trying to get out of now. The chords are so brooding and melancholic... like listening to a cloudy day. I think this song is about addiction and how it transforms you into someone you don't want to look at in the mirror. It's sad that Scott was so extremely talented that he shared his gift with the world in the throes of his addiction, and ultimately lost his life to it. R.I.P. Scott
I suppose that's why she said "I think this song is about addiction..." That's just the way she personally interpreted it. Never did she make the statement that all melodic sad songs are about addiction.
Matthias Herman looked them up, knew immediatly they were a christian band. The music is ok, im an atheist so its not my style, i prefer harder stuff than them.
I remember when STP was doing the Core tour! They opened up for Megadeth! I had no idea who they were, cause I was there for Megadeth! Needless to say the majority of the people went down for this group! At first I wasn't either! I was like who's this skinny guy with florescent orange hair! Then they opened up with dead and bloated, as soon as their set was done ! I immediately went to the merchandise stand and bought an STP shirt and the rest was history for me!
This version always makes me cry at “Think you’re kind of neat, Then she tells me I’m a creep. Friends don’t mean a thing, Guess I’ll leave it up to me”
@@Redhawk-dy3nt probably because weiland wasn't satisfied with original recording most likely. It wouldn't make sense for the dean or Robert to say "hey let's record the vocals" it was most likely weiland's idea
I love the way Weiland sings : "Think you're kind of neat then she tells me I'm a creep/ Friends don't mean a thing guess I'll leave it up to me" differently in this music video than on the album. He better conveys much more emotional distress and hopelessness.
After "Sex Type Thing," you're not helping much. These lyrics sound kind of rapey too. And you think they're great. The only upside I see is that Weiland understood rape, since he was a victim of it.
@@katherynemero9355 Why in the fuckity fuck fuck would you search for their video, play it and leave a comment if you don't fucking like the song? Truly pathetic. Wash your hair or what's left of it and your ears might clean out too.
Rest in peace, and thanks for the years of amazing music. It was the soundtrack to my teens, our generation grew and lived through the perspectives of your writing and we still carry those memories with us because of the music you left behind.
i thought grunge would be another phase of music in high school just like hip hop, reggae, edm, eurobeat, Spanish, but NOW IT'S A PART OF ME AND I graduated in 2018
I love when all the coments are from people who now have 40-45, and remembered that old 90s days, when everything used to be more simple. I'm 24, i was born in 2000 but i always feeled like all this people who lived this music in the 90s, i feel the same thing🫀
@@bigblg378 if you go on streaming services and look up the super deluxe version of Core, they have the MTV Unplugged version and he does it there, hope this helps!
Thanks to this song, I got through U.S. Coast Guard boot camp. After weeks of training. And no TV, radio, newspapers and my girlfriend broke up with me during camp.. at like 7 weeks they played us music as we worked out. This was the first song any of us heard. Bought the CD as soon as I graduated. "94""
Does anyone else notice this version is better than the other ones at 2:06 he really belts his voice out and it sounds so good an he doesn’t do it like that on any other recording of it so it’s hard for me to listen to the normal one I wish I could buy this version but I can’t 😔
This song invokes so much emotion in me. It was only a distant memory playing from a car radio riding around with my dad when I was a child. But then I was reintroduced to it by the first person I ever fell in love with. Listening to it now fills my heart with love then breaks it. Much love to this song ❤️ ❤️❤️
I played this on cassette while riding in my Dad's car. He bobbed his head to the rhythm and afterwards said "that's a bad tune!" Thanks for that memory STP.
Rip kurt Rip layne Rip Scott Rip chriss Rip chester... And rest in the clouds mom, this was her favorite song, very nostalgic, and it instantly made me get stuck in my head again
+Shanda862004 It''s...kind of true though. We're all distraught about this, but at the same time, his addiction got pretty out of control.You remember how many tours he had to cancel earlier this year?
The 90’s grunge scene....if u lived it, congrats...Some of the greatest bands in history of rock...Never again will we see a grunge scene like we had in the 90’s
I'm a 50 something man but the 90s and this particular era had a massive inpact on my life. I still play this song a lot and recently found my 9 year old son listening to this (and Plush and Wicked Garden) on youtube and singing along. I'm so glad it has sparked something in him like it did in me. RIP Scott, your music will live on
I am struggling with life in general. I am inundated with unexpected debts thrown at me. I don't know how long I can hack things for. However, this song gives me strength. It may be 30 years old now but still in my hearts. Back in 2004, I was walking the streets of Lodz, Poland and I hadn't heard the song for ages. I'd had an awful day at work. Then I heard a Polish busker play this on the street and I cried. Moving tune.
I Hope you are now in a better place financially! If not, then I hope things get better for you… rock on, you can handle everything that gets thrown your way! I believe in you 💪🏽
hey man, I hope things are going better now. Remember you can always just run away from the debts and start over some in other place. Like I said, hopefully things are better now.
Nobody sticked around the Stone Temple Pilots. No expectations. They just remained, stubborn. Until they had all the era's best melodies...Under the radar.

I gave up and eventually forgot about it. 10 years later around 2003 it came on the radio and that's when the DJ said "Stone Temple Pilots with Creep". I laughed in the car and then cried thinking about how 10 years earlier I was sitting in my parents house scrambling to find the song, and how time had seemingly passed so fast. Now I'm a grown man. Funny memories...
back in this era i was into cooper sabbath kiss metallica etc now its weird i have a nostalgia for 90s alternative
Half the man yu used to be
Cool story, thanks for sharing.
Austin, me too, But these boys are bad ass in their own right.
You could say you're double the man you used to be :P
Lyrics 🖤
Forward yesterday,
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real,
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house,
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I got is time,
Got no meanin', just a rhyme
Take time with a wounded hand,
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand,
"Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand,
'Cause it likes to heal
I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
(This I feel as the dawn, it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
(This I feel as the dawn, it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
(This I feel as the dawn, it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be,
Half the man I used to be
Feelin' uninspired,
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run,
Bob has got a gun
Think you're kinda neat,
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing,
Guess I'll leave it up to me
Take time with a wounded hand,
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand,
"Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand,
'Cause it likes to heal
I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
(This I feel as the dawn ... It fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
(This I feel as the dawn ... It fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
(This I feel as the dawn ... It fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be,

Take time with a wounded hand,
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand,

Half the man I used to be
👍 FINALLY SOMEONE PUTS THE LYRICS ON HERE RECENTLY! Thx ☺️
@@cocochanelly5193 😊
Thanks 🖤
I do see you Jose 👁️
I still keep hearing "cause I am free as a dog that feeds"
They don't make music like this anymore. The 90's where the best.
You missed the 70's. But the 90's made it ok to have the 80's. :)
Music from the 1990's is so underrated. The 90's gets a bad rap.
This song takes me back to a time when the world seemed simpler, and the weight of life hadn't settled in so heavily. Each note is a poignant reminder of moments lost, of dreams that slipped through fingers like grains of sand. It's a melancholic symphony, an anthem for the broken-hearted souls who find solace in the haunting beauty of sorrow. I find myself drowning in the waves of nostalgia, clinging to the echoes of what once was, but can never be again.
Beautiful words
Love this

Belas palavras brother, eu penso igual a você.

You have just found the best band that came out from the best and most influentied era of music.
Yes. Yes yes. 90's

This song is timeless. It will never go out of style.
I’m no longer a kid and this song still hits like a brick.
How old are ya

@@BASSyxwni your still young I’m 26 a lot changed since I was your ago even though I’m not much older. Enjoy life man! And never take it for granted! I lost my bestfriend to drugs at age 25..I can tell you have a good taste in music bro rock was always my favorite and then rap
@@Thatguy55595 im sorry to hear about your loss man. I was forced to grow up at a young age and dealt with addiction in my own family ever since i could remember. When i was going through those hard times it was songs like this and simple man and chris cornell that got me through it!!
@@BASSyxwni Then you're the same age as Santana's ''Smooth'' ,
RIP to Scott, Chris, Layne and Kurt.
I'm an old dude and the 60's were a great time for music. The second best was right here in the 90's. From grunge to bands like Pantera and White Zombie to Beck and so many others. It was fresh. It was different. It was a good time to be young.
Can't say it any better I'm 50 and grew up 80's but the 90's shaped me as a young adult .
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THE 70'S BROUGHT US THE MOST INTERESTING VARIETY OF MUSIC. AS LONG AS YOU TOTALLY IGNORE DISCO.
@@jefffriedmann1482 Back then I was totally Death To Disco. Now, after winning the battle, I can enjoy SOME disco. But I love the funk and the TSOP and other really cool stuff that came out then. No one heard of punk or glam and now most bands try to copy what we had 50 years ago 😆😆
Right. There’s something wrong, and getting worse. We are all “Blacked “. Right, you’re hear me. This is Biden’s World. Working against US
Grunge like Pantera????? Dime would've loved ya.
Black man from the hood and please believe we grew up on this song..mtv Kirt loder days
Yep, WE been lucky bastards being born in 1980's
Music....like love....transcends time....
If this isn't played at my funeral, I'm not going.
Ditto 😕
Facts.
This made me smile. And I never smile.
fuck it me neither :)
You should still try and cause a lightning fire or something...just saying.
My heart is truly heavy for his loved ones. I am in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction so I am familiar with the battle. RIP Scott! Rock on in the sky!
+Melinda Rhodes me2 i know da the battle and struggle w/ addiction and recovery. yes this was my favorite song by them. i have like 3 mos clean
jimmy robertson congrats. 1 day at a time. By the grace of my HP will have 11 years on the 12th.
+Melinda Rhodes good luck and I hope you beat it....I have lost a step son and good friend to demons they weren't able to overcome....I'm sure there are a lot of people wishing there was something they could have done for Scott.
Last year I lost my cousin of an overdose and I lost my brother only a month prior where alcoholism played a role. Only a month after my cousin died a friend of 20 years over dosed. I overdose and came close to that a few times. But thankfully I was able to overcome the dark demons that keep me in the dark world. I just wish the others had to the strength to get clean and sober as well.
+bergcycles1 It can be done when one takes control of their mind...drugs suck the wind right out of our lives. Kill it!
90’s music. we didn’t know to appreciate it as much as we should have . damn
Couldn’t be more correct. 🤘🏻
Truth...
Hamlett Haus absolutely 💜💜💜
Jim House 💯 definitely!!!!🎶
Not me. I appreciated and listened to it, and i continue to. I referring to more euro-dance than this
2:07 You can hear the pain of this tortured soul. Thank you for giving us this music RIP Scot Weiland......
Rest in peace Scott Weiland, your music lives on🙌🙌🙌
This is one of my favorite Stone Temple Pilot songs for sure. Grunge rock will always be one of my favorite genres of music.
I miss our music. The shit out now is terrible. Probably why I'm still here watching this 🔥🤞🏻
Shit now isn't terrible, u just have different taste. Dont spread hate bc u are unappreciative of all sound/creativity. These lyrics dont make sense nor can u understand him half the time but its still enjoyable... lol
Same.
God this comment is so edgy
Skinny Puppy
Get a load of this guy.
In the Summer of 1995, I listened to STP's "Creep" while watching Beavis and Butt-Head on MTV. Really awesome song of the 90's! 😊
Fire fire fire
Many singers of the 1990s had the gift of representing the pain of young people in an increasingly competitive and soulless society. They told teenagers that sometimes feeling bad is ok, that anger and pain were part of the human path. Unfortunately today, there are no such singers anymore, the money and this sick narcissism killed any creativity in music. This young generation, the selfie generation, is already doomed. I hope the next generation will be smarter and more rebellious.
yes
Matt Moves So True.
To tell you the truth, there are still outcasts who are waiting for the day when their voices will be heard. Hang in there, cuz rock music will return.
Matt Moves too much pain is never a good thing
Matt Moves Totally agree. There's always some asshole in these comments who talks about how rock music is doing "just fine", but man I couldn't disgaree more. Since the start of the 2010's it seems like there might be 3-4 albums the entire year I'll enjoy, and the last 2 years or so I'm lucky to find one new rock song I like every 3-4 months. I enjoy a wide array of rock styles, so bands like Tame Impala, Cage The Elephant, and Arctic monkeys, can go side by side with Mastodon and Queens of the stone age in my playlists. But I hate having to wait all year to only end up with 2-3 great rock albums. In the 90's you had entire ALBUMS worth of great material from everyone like Incubus, RHCP, Beck, Nirvana, STP, Green Day, Bush, Alice in Chains, Pantera, R.E.M, Weezer, Soundgarden, Rage against the machine, Oasis, Days of The New, Third Eye Blind, etc etc. These bands were releasing new music in the prime of their artistic abilities, side by side in the same calender year. The airwaves were full of songs by these bands, and other artists who had hits. There was never a dull moment, or lack of quality/diversity. There is definatly a stark contrast in the amount of quality rock being put out now, no doubt about it.

@@bethedwards233 You've "corrected" the lyrics by making them wrong?
Remember: Half of nothing is still nothing.
This song hits harder than when I was a kid, I’m 45 and I saw these guys live many times. The further away I get from that time in my life the further away I get from knowing myself and the closer I get to being completely lost…
Its been said we discover ourselves when we take ourselves down and lose ourselves when we move further away from the moments/things in life that caused our most prominent changes/influence
Close your eyes brother, you're not as far as you believe
I love you and you are never lost my friend 💜
These replies are lame with livelaughlove advice. I'm 41, I feel you. I miss the me that didn't give a 2nd thought to throwing on a belly chain, plaid skirt & finding creative passions in everything & adventures of possibility while dancing to loud rock on late nights. That sparkle in our eyes from then. I feel the floating & it sucks, you're right
word. this ☝️.
Takes me back to when I was a kid and was Free! Literally Free from the government and this stupid phone and the Internet and social media! When kids played with sticks and rocks and dirt and had a blast doing it! That was true freedom! God Bless and RIP my brother! 🙏 SLUMERICAN 4 LIFE ⚡⚡🙏😘✌️🤟👽💙
We peaked in the 90s people.
Everything from that time forward is on the losing side of momentum we had as human beings.
The most beautiful part of it all is that we all shared it together of you are reading this today...
Look back and smile for joy is fleeting and increasingly rare..
Maybe if u listened to lucki idk man
Some would say that we peaked in the seventies, but you had a few high points
Thank you I’ve been saying this for years
Is crazy because we really didn’t understand how good it was. People weren’t so fake, we had hope, and people care about each other regardless of background. Not to mention the lack of worry. It’s like a literal dream now.
I was a rave dj from 95-2003.
It was literally paradise on earth. People loved one another. Love was an actual thing people shared and felt between people. It wrapped you like a warm blanket..
Hate was not as prevalent in people's hearts. It was the closest we got to ending racism as we all tried to be better toward eachother. Music was amazing. People were attractive and unique and interesting. Conversation was real and people were MODEST. The idea of "influencer" was a disgusting idea and peoplelike that were seen as ego-maniacs and psychopaths.. You had to OWN knowlege as it was in YOUR MEMORY not in your POCKET.. Social media destroyed earth and we will see this after the third world war... Love your brothers and sisters as this dream is over before you realize it had begun...
Best chorus ever especially how they made like a double chorus. It was already very good and powerful with just the "take time with a wounded hand" part but once added with "I feel as the dawn it fades to gray", then that's just pure gold!
that line is sung by the guitarists
@@JP47471 yah Robert!
the chorus is the type of riff that is so good you learn it by ear after a single hearing and vibe to it completely in a trance
music doesn't get better than this, the overlapping vocals did most of the impression here indeed. Great comment
Good point
personally i hate choruses, they are so predictable i enjoy a less structured composition
I love Radiohead, but this is the best Creep song!
Well, Creep is not even in top 50 radiohead songs and this is literally in STP's top 5. Still prefer Radiohead's creep though lol

Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
My 12 year old son is on a grunge trip and I'm loving every moment reliving my teen years! Talk about trip down memory lane with this music! 🤘😛
That’s awesome dude, it’s honestly one of the best genres of rock out there, but it’s just such a shame it died out so fast like a good flame it went out twice as fast as a bad one, all because we lost Kurt Cobain, and Layne, so soon, to soon... but at least we can still enjoy the era when it reined supreme.
@@joshshrum2764 I’m 15 and I’m the same also I agree, you’re right.
@@joshshrum2764 Most grunge sounds alot like Southern rock mixed with alternative anyways to me. Although when I looked it up it says Punk, and alternative, lol, it goes better with bands like Sixty watt Shaman, Alabama Thunderpussy. Not any punk band that I've ever heard. The internet doesn't even define grunge very well. There's plenty of good stuff out there still. Although losing any great singer, and band sucks. Plus in the old days things were so reliant on channels like Mtv, and Vh1, nowadays you dont even need radio stations, just plug your cell phone into the car stereo, and listen to whatever you want.
My son too.
My 12-yr. Old grandson introduced me to Nirvana. I lost my mind. 😂 Then I discovered Soundgarden and lost my mind again. Been overdosing on Alice in Chains for awhile now cause ......Layne! 🥰. Time to give STP a try. The Interstate Love song was the first one I heard and loved. I'm 61 . Better late than never? 🤷

Having never listened to this version of the song (always listened on the original album) honestly this version genuinely gave me chills. It feels so much more personal and just real. Something about it, absolutely incredible.
Yeah the "think you're kinda neat..." part sounds detached and apathetic in the original, but in this version, it sounds so much more raw and visceral.
R.I.P. Nick.....this jam always makes me think of you!❤❤❤❤❤
Wounded hand

Can't express how much this song means to me, it helped me so much in my darkest of days, whenever I get sad I just listen to this song, and it never fails to console me, never fails to say that "you are not alone in this".Rip Scott.
As he says you just have to take time with a wounded hand, or in are case are wounded emotions.
Met Scott just 3 days before he passed. My heart sank from the news. You're missed Scott. Thank you for everything.

We're just getting better dudes, 41 here 👍
The 90's gave us 4 of the best and most original vocalists in rock history: Layne Staley, Chris Cornell, Eddy Vedder and Scott Weiland. Let's never forget that Scott was one of the greatest.
At one time he might have bin the best I think and I’m an Eddie lover , A great front man
Love how he would dance
X-11B INFANTRYMAN 🎖
How are you not gonna mention Kurt. While your post still has merit…you gotta include Cobain
What about Kurt
you miss a lot of vocalists. 90s were times when there was like a burst of vocalists. yorke, cobain, chester, cornell, mark lanegan,weiland, vedder, staley, till lindemann, dolores, reznor, stipe, kiedis, anselmo and many more (i know some of these bands started late 80's but they got noticed in early 90's)
My vote is for Chris C, but I like all of those mentioned above. I'd add Richard Patrick (Filter) to the list.
This song takes me back to high school. My brothers got this album and stumbled onto this song. Reminds me of days when nothing mattered but enjoying our youth and hanging out with each other. August 5th, 2021 I lost my younger brother "Bio" and then 4 months and 4 days later on December 9th, 2021 I lost my older brother "shush". This song brings back all our memories. I want all those days back. Then we thought we had our whole lives ahead of us. Now it's just my younger sister and I. The memories I have of us will be forever cherished.
As long as you have your memory's they will live on. Sorry for your loss
@@ScrawnyRonnie89 thanks for that and they sure will🖤🖤🖤
@Hunter Vonnegut very interesting and I listened to only one song. Now on to the others. What's your favorite song?

heathenbreathinfire
Shitttt...it is dead.
Music in general is dead and has been for quite some time now and no that's not the member berry's talking its just the truth!
there have been a few good bands both new and resurgences like Hum is working on an album for the first time since Downward is Heavenward, Soundgarden's back, and some of the newer ones like Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Middle Class Rut are bad ass. But in general, yeah you are right.
heathenbreathinfire wtf ever
This feeling when you hear a song that changed your life again
Totally
THIS. I heard this again for the first time in a very long time a while back. hit me like a ton of bricks.
I felt this so hard. was born when this song was released
this song makes me remember how reckless and care free I was in my youth, now I find myself buried under a ton of responsibilities that only help to breakdown my spirit and dim my hopes and dreams. as I go down this road, I look back and realize that I'm only a shadow of the person I used to be
Alejandro Meza we have to live life to the fullest before it's too late.
Alejandro Meza
True
We are more often treacherous through weakness than through calculation
To me, its how shame sounds. Its how my shame sounds. Its half hearted for me. I'll say "I promise I won't do this again." And then some time later I'll go an do it and feel like this. Half the man I used to be.
Alejandro Meza haha thats deep as fuck bro smoke a joint brother an just chill. Whos to say ur not on top of all ur shit an then all of a sudden u stroke out tomo. Gotta have a balance.

I will miss Scott Weiland as long as I live.
He was so extremely talented and the most beautiful man!
They are not the same he made the band to me just jis voice and everything
Yes
get a life
Me too. I struggle when i hear him. He was so incredibility talented
Scott weiland was the best.
This song brings tears to my eyes, and reminds me of a deep, dark place I was in my life... at 28, still trying to get out of now. The chords are so brooding and melancholic... like listening to a cloudy day. I think this song is about addiction and how it transforms you into someone you don't want to look at in the mirror. It's sad that Scott was so extremely talented that he shared his gift with the world in the throes of his addiction, and ultimately lost his life to it. R.I.P. Scott
Are all melodic sad songs about addiction??!! Music is an art which means it is all in how the song is personally interpreted.
I suppose that's why she said "I think this song is about addiction..." That's just the way she personally interpreted it. Never did she make the statement that all melodic sad songs are about addiction.
+Doug Beard Alright. Thanks for the explanation.
I hear ya Amanda , most definitely ...
Well said.
Stone Temple Pilots (STP) IS in my personal top ten rock bands...of all time.
Top 2 for me
they rarely make songs this good anymore
Agreed my friend
+jonh smither Just curious, who is they?
+jonh smither look up Theocracy I think you may enjoy them :D As the World lies bleeding or Gift of Music are two great songs
Matthias Herman will do, thanks for the suggestion. I really enjoy avenged sevenfold, hail to the king reminds me of a classic metallica song
Matthias Herman looked them up, knew immediatly they were a christian band. The music is ok, im an atheist so its not my style, i prefer harder stuff than them.
I remember when STP was doing the Core tour! They opened up for Megadeth! I had no idea who they were, cause I was there for Megadeth! Needless to say the majority of the people went down for this group! At first I wasn't either! I was like who's this skinny guy with florescent orange hair! Then they opened up with dead and bloated, as soon as their set was done ! I immediately went to the merchandise stand and bought an STP shirt and the rest was history for me!
Only commenting because we have a similar screen name.
is that right, buddy...Tejano, Rap, R&B is what I was hearing at the time before Rock etc.

Ternaldius They're called exclamation points not explanation points. You're attempt at a joke failed completely!
This version always makes me cry at
“Think you’re kind of neat,
Then she tells me I’m a creep.
Friends don’t mean a thing,
Guess I’ll leave it up to me”
Which is why this version is considerably better than the other version (imo), in which his cadence never changes throughout that part.
@@normie2716 Any news on why this was rerecorded in the first place? That doesn't seem typical for music videos, especially of that era.
Its ok let's cry together
@@Redhawk-dy3nt probably because weiland wasn't satisfied with original recording most likely. It wouldn't make sense for the dean or Robert to say "hey let's record the vocals" it was most likely weiland's idea
Yes very relatable
Best song ever
One of the best songs of the 90's. No question.
We keep losing these super talented beautiful tortured souls...💔
so true
@Vlad The Lad calling people that have passed cowards just reflects back to your image..
@Vlad The Lad the only coward person here is you
"Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me..." spitting out facts!.
amazing how he makes the words "guess i'm leave it up to me" sound a lot like the word "gasoline"
I love the way Weiland sings : "Think you're kind of neat then she tells me I'm a creep/ Friends don't mean a thing guess I'll leave it up to me" differently in this music video than on the album. He better conveys much more emotional distress and hopelessness.
After "Sex Type Thing," you're not helping much. These lyrics sound kind of rapey too. And you think they're great.
The only upside I see is that Weiland understood rape, since he was a victim of it.
@@katherynemero9355 Why in the fuckity fuck fuck would you search for their video, play it and leave a comment if you don't fucking like the song?
Truly pathetic.
Wash your hair or what's left of it and your ears might clean out too.
@@katherynemero9355 that song was anti-rape, it wasn't glorifying it...
Katheryne Mero didn’t ask
I noticed too and now i want this version to listen to.
One of my favs from the 90s. Scott was one of a kind. RIP, dude.
Rest in peace, and thanks for the years of amazing music. It was the soundtrack to my teens, our generation grew and lived through the perspectives of your writing and we still carry those memories with us because of the music you left behind.
Beautifully put. Mirroring my sentiments
Amen.
Roberts backing vocals are the best part of this song. Gives it another layer of depth.
how this song only has 11 million views is beyond me.
RIP Scott.
Elmo. Plaza. Sesamo
So many memories to this outstanding song! I loved the 90s so much, and this band was one of the reasons why.
I'm on my grunge trip again...
Ugh I kinda hate those some times
can we take pics fro my grunge account you seem cool as fuck digging the aesthetic
That’s me like everyday 😂
prashant singh chauhan same! 🌻
i thought grunge would be another phase of music in high school just like hip hop, reggae, edm, eurobeat, Spanish, but NOW IT'S A PART OF ME AND I graduated in 2018
I love when all the coments are from people who now have 40-45, and remembered that old 90s days, when everything used to be more simple. I'm 24, i was born in 2000 but i always feeled like all this people who lived this music in the 90s, i feel the same thing🫀
Hi Be Sure To checkout an indierock song and video entitled "Life Changes' by Robert Nix
I lived through the 90s, I was in my teens. Best music!
30yrs later and I'm still on this fucking sphere
Good for you man enjoy it while it lasts!
good job man lot of people out there didnt make it that long
2:08 when he starts to hit a little higher notes sends chills down my spine
I was so sad to find out that they didn’t add it in the audio versions
@@bigblg378 if you go on streaming services and look up the super deluxe version of Core, they have the MTV Unplugged version and he does it there, hope this helps!
For a Man his voice is Perfect...Talented always I never get tired of his voice...
My favorite part of the song
@@bigblg378 I found it in the super deluxe version of core, its called creep new version 2017 remaster
Anyone else feel a lot different hearing this in their 40s than they did as a teenager?
absolutely
Of course... 47 and jus go back in the music! A lot of these guys of the 90's were struggling mentally...
Guess I was a well, it's why it got me...
Absolutely
I'll come back and answer your question in 20 years
@@sillythygoose enjoy your youth, friend. Do wild shit.
Thanks to this song, I got through U.S. Coast Guard boot camp. After weeks of training. And no TV, radio, newspapers and my girlfriend broke up with me during camp.. at like 7 weeks they played us music as we worked out. This was the first song any of us heard. Bought the CD as soon as I graduated. "94""
Does anyone else notice this version is better than the other ones at 2:06 he really belts his voice out and it sounds so good an he doesn’t do it like that on any other recording of it so it’s hard for me to listen to the normal one I wish I could buy this version but I can’t 😔
Same here
That line has always been my favorite in this song
The MTV unplugged acoustic version
Can play it over and over.. so good.
Yeah this is a great take
This song invokes so much emotion in me. It was only a distant memory playing from a car radio riding around with my dad when I was a child. But then I was reintroduced to it by the first person I ever fell in love with. Listening to it now fills my heart with love then breaks it. Much love to this song ❤️ ❤️❤️
I played this on cassette while riding in my Dad's car. He bobbed his head to the rhythm and afterwards said "that's a bad tune!" Thanks for that memory STP.
21 and hearing this song never gets old. i hope all of you find the stop your all looking for.
Rip kurt
Rip layne
Rip Scott
Rip chriss
Rip chester...
And rest in the clouds mom, this was her favorite song, very nostalgic, and it instantly made me get stuck in my head again
I'm amazed Scott lived as long as he did
+Shanda862004 It''s...kind of true though. We're all distraught about this, but at the same time, his addiction got pretty out of control.You remember how many tours he had to cancel earlier this year?
+Tairy Greene I thought he would end the same way as Staley... I was right unfortunately. He lived 48 years of Rock N' Roll and drugs, a genius
That was my first thought when I heard he died today.
The 90’s grunge scene....if u lived it, congrats...Some of the greatest bands in history of rock...Never again will we see a grunge scene like we had in the 90’s
i mean i’m 18 but i like to think i vibe to all the same shit y’all did 😂😂
@@dannymcconnell162 Good!
The best music
I’m a 90’s kid and I LIVED for these bands!!
I'm a 50 something man but the 90s and this particular era had a massive inpact on my life. I still play this song a lot and recently found my 9 year old son listening to this (and Plush and Wicked Garden) on youtube and singing along.
I'm so glad it has sparked something in him like it did in me.
RIP Scott, your music will live on
This song will never die, 2021 and I feel like Iv heard it for the first time.
1993
💚
2023, wine, me and my old friend sorrow...
A legend no one can forget
I could listen to this all day...
I am struggling with life in general. I am inundated with unexpected debts thrown at me. I don't know how long I can hack things for. However, this song gives me strength. It may be 30 years old now but still in my hearts. Back in 2004, I was walking the streets of Lodz, Poland and I hadn't heard the song for ages. I'd had an awful day at work. Then I heard a Polish busker play this on the street and I cried. Moving tune.
Hi I Recommend an indie song called 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix
I Hope you are now in a better place financially! If not, then I hope things get better for you… rock on, you can handle everything that gets thrown your way! I believe in you 💪🏽
Fight my brother, fight! Never give up! Hug from Brazil
hey man, I hope things are going better now. Remember you can always just run away from the debts and start over some in other place. Like I said, hopefully things are better now.
Hell,I'm 63 and can see the genius in his music.
I'm TWICE the Age I USED to BEEEE...
Fact! Lol
Haha!
These a hairs on my head they fade to grey!!
nailed it.
... and I'm feeling so OLD!
He was such an amazing singer . RIP Scott love .
Nobody sticked around the Stone Temple Pilots. No expectations. They just remained, stubborn. Until they had all the era's best melodies...Under the radar.
They were one of the best. Music stands the test of time
Gotta say I agree great songs
Forward yesterday makes me wanna stay
What they said was real makes me wanna steal
Living under house guess I'm living I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time got no meaning just a rhyme
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause it likes to heal,
I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Feeling uninspired think I'll start a fire
Everybody run Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing guess I'll leave it up to me
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand 'guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause it likes to heal,
I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand 'guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand 'cause it likes to heal,
I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)
Well, I'm half the man I used to be (this feeling as the dawn it fades to gray)

Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

Janet Safa i lost my cheese burger did you eat it??beautiful cheese burger i miss that burger
I was 7 years old when this song came. I love that my mom loves music and she listened to just about everyhting from classic rock to 90s grudge rock and alternative...now I'm 32 years old jamming this still but with my daughter who is 2 years old. 💙💙💙
Great parenting right here folks!!! Your sweet baby girl will learn to appreciate music thats for sure. Good Job mama.
@@christineferlisi9606 Thank you for that love!!! My daughter is now 3 years old and for christmas we got her an acoustic guitar that she plays with and sings. She's too adorable.
❤❤❤
Thank you God for this Day you have made for us to share together. "Greatfull for every breath "❤❤
They have a great catalogue but I’ve always felt this one was underrated. It’s held up really well over the years.
