Vertical

"Hear this, you kings! Listen, you rulers! I will sing to the LORD, I will sing; I will make music to the LORD, the God of Israel.

Vertical music invovles an element of interaction bewteen God and humanity. The distinctive feature about Christian music is that it strives to connect humans with the reality of God.

This Week's Challenge
In the comment section of this post list:
1. Evaluate five artists from this link. (were they good or bad, why? Oh, yeah, After Edmund is there!)
2. Pick one new worship song you think we should do as a youth group.

1. David Crowder~"Here Is Our King" - They sound OK but not great because the live version is never nearly as good as the studio recording.
After Edmund~"Clouds" - This sound is good because it varies from their usual set of chords and rhythm; it varies from the typical sound of most of their other songs.
Edison Glass~"Today Has Wings" - This song is... not good. It sounds really kinda screechy and his voice is weak.
The Myriad~"Perfect Obligation" - I thought this one was good. It had a nice beat and the melody was catchy.
Derek Webb~"Mockingbird" I did not like this one's sound but the lyrics were really original.
2. A good song to sing in worship would be the Tree 63 song we sang at D-Now "Beautiful One". Also, any Third Day songs would be good.
