I am at a bar in the northernmost city of Denmark, Skagen.. just saw this comp with free internet in the corner so I could not help myself. This Danish keypad does not have [the flying comma.. what is that called?] so that is why my writing style is so different..
Neways, just wanted to say that the name of that last artist guy was Taitur, not Teitur. He does share the same worldviews, God-views etc. but his style is really nice. Now why does there not exist christian music that is really good? I mean really good! Switchfoot, Newsboys, O.C.Supertones, Jars of Clay and D.C. Talk are all okay, but none of them are really, really good.. That is why I do not listen to Christian music no more.. mostly neways.
Okay, gotta run ppls. Take care, and I just might keep posting regularly!
PS. For those of you who missed it, I am on this trip with my family including my younger sister who is 12 years old. We all went to a beautiful beach to watch the sunset this evening and I started talking with her about romance, specifically the Sacred Romance. I remember how my older sister would talk to me when I was about her age and it meant so much to me that most would not believe it. So I remind myself of how much it must mean to my younger sis that I spend time with her and share my heart, treating her like someone I trust, value and really care about. Anyways, I talked about how romance is not just a term that is to be used about the teenage "in-love" things but how it is also something that ties in closely with beauty (in this case the beauty of the sunset), and of how that beauty was all designed in the heart of God. "I got to a point where I realised that no matter how much I appreciated the beauty of a sunset, I could not capture the beauty and the specific feeling [the romancing of my heart] of the moment. That made me think that beauty is folly - a waste of time - until the day when I would get a girlfriend, because I thought to myself that I the perfect enjoyment of beauty would be realised when shared with someone that I was in romantic love affair with. That is true, but perfect love cannot exist with anyone else than God. So in that way God uses beauty to draw us to him..." I think she understood it quite well actually, and if she captures this at a young age she will have something good to build alot of years on. [smile]
Neways, my crew is leaving..

Well, as far as christian music go, i think you just need to broaden your horison, there is much wonderful and beautiful and REAL GOOD music made by christian artists! Maybe they don't promote themselves as "here we come let's preach, christians are not boring" but they understand more what is music about and play it that way!
you can email me and ask for names if you want...
