How He Loves

I can’t think of a song that’s touched me more over the last six months than this one.  I’ve got a handful of version of it on my computer, and they’ve just been looping lately.

If you’ve not heard the song, it’s here:

If you HAVE heard it and want to hear about how it came to be created, this video speaks of real life and real struggle, and it makes the song mean even more than it already does to me…

Wake Up the World

I know I’m late, but this is my new favourite Christmas song.

Thank you J.J. Heller.

All Around Me

I’m hip and cool enough to be a David Crowder fan.  One of his songs on his latest album is called “All Around Me”.  You can hear it below…

However, I’m not hip and cool enough to have known that this song is not a Crowder original.  He was actually covering (albeit VERY uniquely) a song by Flyleaf.  I’m not hip or cool enough to have even heard of this group, so imagine my shock when I looked them up on Youtube and found their video for this song to have nearly 13 million views!  If you’re intrigued to hear the very un-Crowder-like original (with an admittedly odd and random video), that is below…

The Nearness

A friend gave me a listen to the new David Crowder album (Church Music).  If I were writing a review, I’d just say, “Oh baby!”  Take that as a “thumbs up”.

One of the songs that just grabs me is called “The Nearness”.  Below is a basic video of just album cover and lyrics to go with the music.  If you’ve never heard any of it, here’s a chance.  Enjoy!

Making Beautiful Music

Credit where it’s due.  Blair first showed me this.

For some reason it came storming back into my mind over supper tonight.  A quick re-viewing confirmed its blog-worthiness, though after you watch it, you may be questioning the worthiness of such blogs.  I leave you to your own questions.  For now, I give you a real piece of work and this small piece of advice: Watch his eyebrows.
