Lukas first ventured onto the music scene with two Canadian bands, Cleavage (1995-2005) and Rise Electric (2005-2006), which helped prepare him for what was to come. He entered and won the competition television show Rock Star: Supernova (2006) which earned him front man status with Tommy Lee (Motley Crue), Jason Newsted (Metallica), and Gilby Clark (Guns N' Roses). Their band Rock Star Supernova completed an album and a world tour of the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Following the tour, Lukas returned to Los Angeles and began writing and recording new music. The Love and Lust EP (June 2007) was released and he completed the solo acoustic Love and Lust Tour, making over two dozen stops throughout the United States and Canada. The new material was well-received by fans, and the band Stars Down was born (2008-present). After touring with his new band, Lukas began playing local gigs at such southern California hot spots as The Roxy, The Key Club, The Mint, and Viper Room.
The year 2010 kicked off with a mini East Coast tour and Lukas working on his first full length album. Hollywood was released (July 2010) and debuted live at West Hollywood’s famous Viper Room. The all acoustic Hollywood Stripped followed (August 2010). After moving to Nashville, in addition to local and out-of-town gigs, he wrote, recorded, produced, and released six additional recordings. The first three were Seed EP (December 2010), Story Teller (January 2011), and Super, Sex, Magic (February 2011). He also co-wrote, provided vocals, and recorded several music videos for a side-project, Switchblade Glory (April 2011). Lukas released Prophecy (November 2011) and Christmas Collection (December 2011) to complete a very busy year. But he wasn’t finished, releasing the album 8 Days (April 2012) soon after.
Lukas has appeared on many media outlets, including performing live at the 2006 Gemini awards, the CBS television series Rock Star: Supernova (18 million viewers worldwide), Ellen, Regis & Kelly, The Jimmy Kimmel Show, Entertainment Tonight, The Howard Stern Show, and ET Canada.
In addition to his vocal talent, Lukas plays multiple instruments, is a songwriter, producer, actor, and vocal instructor. He currently resides with his wife Kendra in Nashville, Tennessee.

Creep
Lukas Rossi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
couldnt look you in the eye
your just like and angel
your skin makes me cry
you float like a feather
in a beautiful world
i wish i was special
so very special
i'm a wierdo
what the hell am i doing here
i dont belong here
ohh ohh
shes runnig out the door ooooooooor
shes running out, she run run run ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
she
she ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
i'm a creep i dont belong here
The song "Creep" by Lukas Rossi is a powerful ballad that portrays the feelings of vulnerability and rejection that the singer feels towards the woman he's speaking to. The singer describes how he feels inferior in her presence, and how his admiration for her beauty and grace makes him feel unworthy. This is evident in the opening lines of the song, where he says "when you're here before, I couldn't look you in the eye, you're just like an angel, your skin makes me cry."
He then goes on to lament his own shortcomings, wishing that he was special and deserving of her attention. However, he realizes that he is an outcast and an oddity, and that he doesn't belong in this world that she inhabits. This is made clear in the chorus, where he repeats "I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo, what the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here." The song then takes a darker turn in the bridge, where the singer realizes that the woman is leaving him and running out the door. He pleads with her to stay, but knows deep down that he doesn't deserve her love or her attention.
Overall, the song "Creep" is a haunting and emotional portrayal of unrequited love and rejection. The singer's vulnerability and insecurity are palpable, and the lyrics paint a vivid picture of his despair and desolation.
