Here I go again-

Sewing (or sowing? I can never get that right.) discord among the brethren.
When it comes to Christian Music, I have a station I listen to more than others. But I must make this comment, and I don't mean to paint with a broad brush, but I am, so there:
CHRISTIAN RADIO IS DORKY. PURE AND SIMPLE, IT IS DORKY.
It's not the artists, mostly. There are some songs that are played on these stations that, simply put, sound like they were taken from radio jingles. I hear Scott Krippayne's "I Wanna Sing," and on the last line of the chorus I sing "US Postal Service- We Deliver For You," because it's the same music! The other example is Pocket Full of Rocks' "You Are Welcome Here." I feel bad, because they sing it with such passion. But the chorus sounds like a cheesy supermarket ad from the 90s. The last line is "You are welcome here, Mighty God!" - instead, I sing "You are welcome here - Harris Teeter!"
The station I listen to also features the most annoying DJ in the morning hours. I know there are things he has to say and promote, it's part of the job. I understand. There are things I have to sell, or I lose my job. But the way he says it, it's like nails on a chalkboard! His Wednesday weather forecasts always include the lines "on your way to church." I don't go to church Wednesdays. Am I less of a Christian?!? And quit telling jokes! You're not funny! You're an old dork! Just play the music, and tell us who's singing, so I can sell their CDs!
Sorry. I'm calming down. OK. The music is mostly good. It's repetitive, sure, but it's good. It's a better mix than the other stations. But each one I've encountered has the same problem: Dorky DJs. You can't escape them in the Christian market. But some are worse than others.
One more rant before I finish: Each genre of Christian music has "that" artist. In Southern Gospel, it's Ivan Parker. I call him "Mr. Gospel Mullet" and "the Robert Goulet of Gospel Music." He'll sing ANYTHING! In contemporary music, it's Phillips, Craig, & Dean. A friend of mine, David, calls them "the Michael Bolton of Christian music- they'll sing anything-and ruin it!" How ironic is it that Ivan Parker has now released a PC&D song? He has recorded "Favorite Song of All."
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
