My Top 5

Christmas Songs of all time:
1. Carol of the Bells
2. O Holy Night
3. Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire (officially, "The Christmas Song")
4. Santa Baby
5. It's Cold Outside
6. Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
7. It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
8. Away in a Manger
9. Nut Cracker Suite
10. Hallelujah Chorus (I realize that it is often sung at Easter, but it can be my favorite for two seasons...)

And who was I kidding? You're talking to a music person. I can't hold it to just 5.

Somebody explain it to me, please

I don't understand why people can be more involved and "in" to the music at a James Taylor, Rolling Stones, KISS, 50 Cent, Beyonce, ___(fill in the blank)___ concert than while worshiping our Creator. They would rather talk and yawn through it....they'd rather complain that it's too loud (I wonder if they would say that to Big and Rich) or that it's "Not their style" - or whatever. I am at a loss.

My only observation? Get over it. You aren't gonna like Heaven if you don't like praisin' and singin' - and there may be only one style - one song for that matter! Get over yourself.

sorry for the rant.....

Carefree

The idea of being carefree and joyful has been one that I have really wanted to explore musically lately...I think it's because I feel the need to let God's joy be MY joy and to let God handle the big stuff and the small stuff...Why worry? Christians are some of the gloomiest people I know. Why is that? I think the world would be full of MORE of us if we weren't so sour...
