Good 90's songs.

Yes, that was so unexpected and sad! She was only 46! I wish more musicians would turn to God instead of alcohol and drugs to relieve their pain and depression.

Maybe as a Christian musician you can minister to unsaved musicians and share the gospel with them!

@Magenta ,

Nothing Compares to You is the most famous song from Sinead during 90s. I remember it playing on Mtv many times daily.
Mtv back then also used to broadcast actual music not the trash shows they broadcast now.

hold on cv5. not all rock & roll is trash. its so easy for Christians & other people to instantly downgrade rock & roll as it were meaningless. there's huge amounts of "clean" rock out there. no, i'm not defending it because i'm a professional drummer. as i stated before, rock musicians are much much better players than musicians who play Christian music. why can't Christian people play that well? there's got to be a reason. if they are so dedicated to God why can't they play even half as good as the secular players? i've been on the road before with full crews, basically all over the northeast & a bit beyond. its not proper for anyone to degrade rock music without a full research into it. yes, I'll be the 1st say there's quite a bit of evil music, no doubt.

Song of Solomon is the original rock ballad, is it not?

Some simply do not advertise their faith so much in proselytizing outside the career they have
fashioned for themselves in the music they make. According to this article (<= link), Bono of U2
says on the matter, written in a recently published book called SURRENDER 40 songs, one story:

Even his faith connects religious elements that don't normally intersect. In some book passages
he sounds like an evangelical Christian, displaying a deep familiarity with scripture and a reverence
for Christ. And yet he also says that he's never found a church he could call home, and "that what
the human spirit longs for may not be corralled by any sect or denomination."

"It's not just that some of the finest people I've known don't subscribe to any particular faith tradition; it's
more that people who openly profess faith can be — how shall I put this? — such a pain in the ar*e," he writes.

U2 - Until The End Of The World (Official Music Video)

From Achtung Baby, released on 18 November 1991; definitely a fave of mine
from them, and Dave Evans, otherwise known as "The Edge," is a stellar guitarist.

That's okay. Jeremiah didn't get a single convert that we know of. The most important thing - and this pleases God so very much - is that you're doing His will!

And sometimes it take YEARS for someone to finally come around. You know after all this is done, you might see one of those musicians you shared the gospel with and learn that he's become our brother/sister in Christ!

that's pretty neat 2ndTime! i do have written down 99% of the people i witnessed to who did accept Jesus as savior.

You do realize that the etymology of the very term "rock and roll" indicates that it is an euphemism for illicit sexual activity......correct?

Another thought: if your heart strings are resonant with "rock and roll" occult/pop music, maybe you need heart replacement surgery?
The kind where Jesus is the Chief Surgeon.

wow! where are you getting that nonsense? the term rock & roll was invented by a dj who made a comment that a particular song could make you want "rock & roll"! you are only advertising your ignorance here. you should quit this conversation. i'll quit it for you: BYE!!! all manner of blessings to you.

I am right about that term. And I have zero intentions of quitting this conversation.

Isa 52:11
Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the LORD.

2Co 6:14
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
2Co 6:15
And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
2Co 6:16
And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2Co 6:17
Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
2Co 6:18
And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

The DJ you're talking about is Alan Freed who came from Cleveland. That's why the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is in Cleveland, Ohio.

His wiki on the use of the term "rock & roll":

This was during the 1950s when there was still segregation in the US. So he used the term "rock and roll" to signify this type of music on his radio shows.

Teenagers loved the music genre because it was so energetic and they could dance to it. And it actually brought together black and white teenagers to dance together which the racists didn't like. Here is a video of them dancing together on his show. It was rather sweet!

-=<♥Interracial Teens Dance on Alan Freed's Big Beat Show 1959♥>=-

The rock & roll music genre is not in and of itself evil, but Satan dominated over its use. But then again, Satan has dominated over the use of many other musical genres. It just might be more obvious in rock & roll. I think if Christians weren't frightened away because someone erroneously said it's all about sex, they would have been able to use the rock & roll music genre to glorify the Lord as well at a much earlier time in music history.

Fortunately, Christian rock came about in the 1980's. Hank Hanegraaf writes:

This tells us that we shouldn't make sweeping statements about rock & roll and that we don't need to avoid it entirely. With the Holy Spirit's help, we can discern which rock songs we can listen to.

there are varying stories of the origins of rock & roll. some say allen freed coined the term. but before that, as far back as 1881, john morton performed a song entitled "rock & roll". there's a story of a woman rocking in a chair in the late 1890's who said, "i'm a rollin' & a rockin'. also, at "camp meeting jubilee", the edison male quartet & the columbia quartet performed a song called "rock & roll". in the 17th century, sailors used the term "rock & roll" to describe the movement of the ship. & origins of gospel music include lyrics of rock & roll. if someone wants to label "rock & roll" as filthy in a sexual way, evil or other ungodly meanings, that never means that that is the "official" meaning. all rock & roll is not filthy, evil or sinful. we all know that there is plenty of evil music & that the devil is a major influence of it. allen freed once declined to assert any evil to the meaning rock & roll. i threw out all my evil ungodly r&r records in 1990. i'm a drummer & i will listen to rock music to analyze styles, talent, originality, sounds, dynamics, simplicity, rhythm & arrangements. I DO NOT WORSHIP ANY OF IT. musicians all over the world realize the huge talent of these guys & learn from them. so i say once again, to anyone on this thread, if Christian musicians are so dedicated to God, & they should be, why can't they play as good as the experts?
