That too. It sounds like The Distance BTW. Same key, same chords.

when I was listening to Bounce for the first time, I liked nothing but this one and this is the only one out of the album I listen to regularly - so yes, I love it! And it's great live!

Can't remember the name of the song, but it's basically a carbon copy of a Creed song, with the same guitar sound and all...

Ice
And then again, it doesn't have to be a copy of a song from Creed to sound like Creed. The entire sound on The Distance is Creed-alike. Overproduced guitars and all that stuff...

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I cant remember Its been so long since I felt inspired to listen to Bounce. Have to give it a listen again and see if it passes.
