Wow, it's beautiful! I think it's beautiful because it's written in a minor key. Anything that's written in a minor key (especially in D) gets me and I fall in love with it. My Mom would call this morbid. I call it magnificent!
If this music is your thing, check out this song on YouTube...
I'll put it in this window as plain text:

Dear webmaster(s) of ChristianChat.com,
I don't know if I've gone over your website thoroughly enough to see if it has this feature, but I haven't seen anything yet. How about letting all your website members see the general area where other members live in the world? I'm sure members would...
One photo out of several photos that I shot out of a silly photo-story I put together. This was several years ago before my parents left South Africa for California. If you think THIS is clowning around, you ain't seen NOTHIN' yet! But I just love to make people laugh, even complete...
That's me with Dad and my elder brother! My fingers got too sore and calloused with acoustic guitars so I took up the piano, keyboard and organ instead.
Roy Nel of Soul Harmonies! Piano/keyboard/organ-playing songwriter! Who wants to jam or write a song with me? Bit of an old photo but I did write a Christian song called "A World Of Possibility" this week.
What an experience that was! This was the theme park in Anaheim, CA. I got in for free because it was my birthday that very day on 9 September 2009. All I needed to do was show them my passport and then they put a birthday name badge on me! People in Disneyland sang for me and gave me the...
Cassettes? haha I remember those things. Used to have them and then MY LIFE CHANGED FOREVER when I started with audio CD's. LOL even those are obsolete now. "Mom! What are we having for dinner tonight?" "Spaghetti bolognaise, honey. But we can't afford spaghetti so I'm afraid I'll have to...
I have this song in my collection and, being the clown that I am, decided to do a parody on it. Would you be interested in reading it? I just don't want to offend you because you probably love this song to pieces. But I decided to translate the original lyrics directly into the Afrikaans...
Hi everybody,
Roy Nel of Soul Harmonies here! I like to write piano solos - and sometimes full orchestral numbers - with Christian, humorous and romantic lyrics. I play the piano, keyboard and organ; is there anybody here who plays the piano or some other musical instrument?
I was listening to messianic music by "Joel Chernoff" (I like his 'Shu-Vee' and 'Come Back' songs very much). But now I just put Commodore Amiga computer game music into my Windows Media Player playlist. I'm listening to the music from the game "Fury of the Furries ('Lagoon')", written by...
Hi brothers and sisters-in-Christ,
I've got millions of things to share with you guys, and so many text chats to go through. But with such a good Christian community like yours, should that be a bad thing? I don't think so! I'm actually looking forward to it! You'll probably notice how...
