What I am hearing (part 4)

Bon Iver- BloodBank

Well, this weeks song is one of my favorites this year. I have had this album for quite awhile and still cannot get away from it.

I love the imagery and feel of the song. Simple, yet compelling.

Bon Iver's music reminds me so much of the bands from the early 70s. It is so raw and emotional. You can feel that he is attached to each word and note.

If only more worship leaders would use the same model. Sing a song like it's your last and make sure each word touches your heart. As I've said, if the song i am singing doesn't move me, why should i expect it to move God.

That's enough for now.

p.s. -in your listening please forgive the naughty word.
