Same for Rap.

I personally love, ALL music, and do listen to everything, from Classical music to Deathcore. From Rap to Country. From Oldies to old fashion gospel. I listen to EVERYTHING and like it... Except Pop music, I really don't care to much for that stuff... You should do some research first into how music affects people then you can go further in your studies from that part.

I personally believe that any music not exalting the kingdom is an open channel for spiritual warfare. A lot of things you may be fighting could be from the music you listen to.

I love the hymns of old, and modern worship music. Chris Tomlin and Third Day are some of my favs. I have a weakness for mass choirs. My media playlists show me a very eclectic Jesus Freak.

I'm pretty much done with secular music except when I get a jones for some good Motown.... I used to be into southern rock, grunge and Metallica when I was a rank Baptist sinner.... of course I smoked a lot of dope then too.

You are right, I am trying to change what I listen to, but the problem is, since I love all types of music I can't help it... Or I can, but it will seriously take some time!

I love David Meece! I love the Imperials. I love DeGarmo & Key. I cannot STAND most of the current crop of Christian contemporary which consists of nothing more then boring guitar strumming and a light beat with non-inspired melodies. The 80's were the glory days for Christian music and unfortunately it is gone. :(

Yeah...the 80s were the best!

David Meece had a different style and I loved it! The Imperials were also my fav.



Queen? I would say that they are the most unusual group that ever came to be.
