Of course, any time someone sings of existential angst, loneliness, or love received from the outside, I identify as a Christian. That list is endless! But since people seem to want to mention songs that have overtly Christian themes, I've got a few faves:<BR/><BR/>Prince: The Cross<BR/>Television: Torn Curtain<BR/>DJ Shadow: Blood on the Way<BR/>Pixies: Heaven (live)<BR/>Norman Greenbaum: Spirit in the Sky<BR/>Stevie Wonder: They say that Heaven is 10,000,000 light years away<BR/>King Missle: Jesus Was Way Cool<BR/>Genius: Basic Instruction Before Leaving Earth (B.I.B.L.E.)<BR/>Al Green: Jesus is Waiting<BR/>Bone Thugs-n-Harmony: Crossroads<BR/>Desmond Dekker: The Israelites<BR/>The Wailers: The Lord Will Make a Way<BR/>David Robinson: I'm a Carpenter, Baby (amazing old funk tune)<BR/>Nick Cave: There is a Kingdom<BR/>Nick Cave: Breathless<BR/>Nick Cave: Brompton Oratory<BR/>Violent Femmes: Jesus Walking on the Water<BR/>The Blue Ridge Rangers (John Fogerty's solo project from right after when Creedence broke up): When He Calls My Name<BR/>Black Hearts Procession: Only One Way<BR/>Daniel Johnston: Lord Give Me Hope<BR/><BR/>Those are all amazing songs! Whoever asked if Nick Cave fits, I sure think he does (The Boatman's Call album especially). And obviously there's Dennis Wilson. And then my other favorite worship bands of the moment (this one's a bit of a stretch): Roxy Music!<BR/><BR/>Of course, last and best, there is Dudley Perkins! I'm hoping to see him live in Leeds on the 9th of Feb.John Zahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13961782491031169865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859222.post-1138188141503304972006-01-25T11:22:00.000+00:002006-01-25T11:22:00.000+00:00I have been trying to get of that Page France albu...I have been trying to get of that Page France album "Hello Dear Wind"... any leads?<BR/>For some reason I find myself preferring sort-of-christian songs by obviously non-christian bands. "Rivers of Babylon" (from 40 ounces to freedom).<BR/>On an unrelated note, I heard that Alice Cooper (of shock-rock fame) became a Christian. I don't think he initiated an MC Hammer-like second career though...jdmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06146279288214371713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859222.post-1138183838145344912006-01-25T10:10:00.000+00:002006-01-25T10:10:00.000+00:00WaterdeepOver the Rhine (my absolutest favouritest...Waterdeep<BR/>Over the Rhine (my absolutest favouritest)<BR/>Pedro the Lion<BR/>Havelina Rail Company<BR/><BR/>Oh, and definitely FaithplusOne (Cartman's Christian band).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17859222.post-1138163095295795052006-01-25T04:24:00.000+00:002006-01-25T04:24:00.000+00:00Newsboys.
