Baby , baby My tender love will flow from The bluest sky to the deepest ocean . Stop for a minute Baby , I'm so glad you're mine , yeah You're mine . Baby , baby Amy Grant

Posts: 196 10/30/03 22:33:13	Yucchhh!!! What a sad state of affairs when an unregenerate metal-head can write deeper spiritual lyrics than a Christian artist.

Posts: 432 10/31/03 11:45:36	(I can't believe I'm defending Amy Grant, but I'm not really, so.....) ISTM Baby, Baby is meant to convey one of those non-profound, affectionate moments lovers have. To compare it as though it is necessarily meant to be as profound as the Black Sabbath lyrics and falls short is about as fair as comparing "Happy Birthday" with "Let not the marriage of true minds." ISTM they are just different genres. And besides, comparing the lameness of a relatively lame Christian(?) artist to a moment of profundity from a pagan artist and then somehow making it a commentary on "what metal-heads can do" and "what Christian artists can do" ignores the existence of some very fine Christian lyricists and ignores the fact that most unregenerate metal-heads churn out juvenile trash. And I don't even LIKE most CCM! ~Jane, a Bonsai Ent Words couldn't express it. They wouldn't express it; they'd mutiny first and become babble. -- James Blaylock, The Last Coin

Posts: 211 10/31/03 13:49:11	Well spoken my dear bonsai ent! I purposely picked the lamest of the lame (at least the lamest that I knew of), indeed the stereotype of cross-over lameness. Why? Because I have a bad sense of humor and got a good giggle out of it. If I really wanted to defend CCM, I'd pick some Rich Mullins lyrics, Michael Card or Keith Green. *Quote:* And the moon is a sliver of silver Like a shaving that fell on the floor of a Carpenter's shop And every house must have it's builder And I awoke in the house of God Where the windows are mornings and evenings Stretched from the sun Across the sky north to south And on my way to early meeting I heard the rocks crying out I heard the rocks crying out Be praised for all Your tenderness by these works of Your hands Suns that rise and rains that fall to bless and bring to life Your land Look down upon this winter wheat and be glad that You have made Blue for the sky and the color green that fills these fields with praise

Canuk	A moment of profundity??	#5	[url]	[-]
Posts: 196 11/04/03 23:03:08	Unfortunately I can find much more moments of profundity from Black Sabbath lyrics than any of Amy Grant's (except for El Shaddai which is really Micheal Card).

All I'm saying is that your generalizations aren't effective, not that Amy Grant is any good. ~Jane, a Bonsai Ent Words couldn't express it.
