I kind of had this discussion yesterday. We have a rather young worship team at our church. They are a great team,but they tend to change hymns somewhat to suit their more modern musical tastes. I am having a problem with that, not because its un-scriptural because I know it isn't. Its just that Fanny J Crosby, Frederick Oakley, John Newton & others poured their hearts into those hymns. The team tends to speed up the tempo of the hymn and the drummer gets involved in a big way. Maybe its just me, I love the way some hymns have been re-done: like Wayne Watsons version of "It is well," but sometimes we change and shorten them unnecessarily.
I often tell me friends that most hymns are as good as a sermon, if we sing all the verses. Sing (and meditate on) a couple of good hymns on Sunday morning and even if the pastor collapses and can't preach that day, I'd consider myself suitably fed.
Having said all this, I'm sure Sonflower did a sterling job.

Yes, the songs they used to sing at my church were very simple and traditional but years ago they made them sound "more contemporary" and even added drums... drums! My church songs should not be playable to with a drumset! They are probably 100+ year old songs... now they have this folksy music feel... ugh.
