Commode Huggin' Blues
 
I've recorded quite a bit of Country Gospel Music over the past few years, as Country Music is what I sang prior to my salvation and deliverance. However, one song that I recorded on my last CD, which was a few years back is called The Commode Huggin' Blues. For what it's worth, you can take a listen by clicking below and give your honest opinion in the poll. It's the first song on the music player on the page.

Thanks... It was just a studio band, but they're good.

AG,

I really enjoyed the song. My take is that it would be appropriate in church in the right kind of service and with the proper introduction.

I don't think it is a song you want to just plug into the middle of a regular service with no introduction and setup!

I think you should pitch the song to a country music artist. It makes a good country music song.

As far as singing it in church, I'll go along with what CC1 said.

YEE HAWW!! I like it. Of course in our church they aren't to big on southern gospel but country music is alright.

In all honesty, I pastor a church in South Mississippi and I have never utilized it in my own church. I can't say that I never will, but not as of yet.

I used to go into High Schools and share my testimony of deliverance from addiction and alcoholism and I'd use that song. The young people loved it.

Country music hurts my ears, I grew up in the 60's. Did Bill Cosby write this song? He has a great routine about this subject.

I voted no, mainly because it's not focused on being delivered from drinking by the Lord. I liked the song though.

No, it was actually written by Del Way of Kerrville, Texas.

I appreciate your honesty and you are correct. The focus is not about deliverance, it's just a reminder, from a somewhat humorous perspective, that it's not really a good time at all. Glad you liked it.

Also, many of the songs that I've recorded are about deliverance. I am the most undeserving of God's mercy and grace, as I lived a life for many, many years running from Him and practicing total rebellion. He has a way of getting our attention and bringing us back to where we need to be. I am so grateful for what He's done in my life.

Did you speak in tongues the first time at a church in southernish IN? You look like this fella who spoke in tongues for the first time at this church I visited, then got up and sang, "Why Me, Lord" afterwards.
