This song is not the single that’s on the radio.  However, this is the song that should be the single on the radio.  Hopefully I don’t make anyone mad for playing this song, but here’s the deal.  Today’s a big day for these guys.  Their new record came out today and I think you should go buy it.  Here’s why.  

I was sent this record a few weeks back.  Now, I’m not going to lie, it took me a few days to start listening to it and Kristin was really the one that was excited about it first.  It’s not that I didn’t want to listen, I just didn’t find the time.  That was at the beginning of April.  Here it is, nearing the end of May and this record is still in my car in regular rotation.  My kids know every word to every song, and no matter how many times  I hear it, it remains a solid record in my mind.  In fact, I will go as far to say that this is one of the most solid records I have heard in Christian music in a very long time.  Now when I say solid here’s what I mean.  I mean that the first song is the current single, number three is the song that hopefully you have playing right now, number seven blows me away every time I hear it, all the way to number ten being a song I would listen to over and over.  That’s what I mean by a solid record.  I don’t feel like there are any songs on the record that are there just to take up space. 

I had a chance to talk to these guys a little during GMA week, and they seem like pretty down to earth guys.  I mean as much as you can tell guys are down to earth, by talking to them in five minute increments several times.  So anyway, here’s the deal.  This record came out today, and I have been waiting like six weeks to blog about the song that should just be about ending if you are listening through.  Anyway, check them out, and make sure to go get the record.  Like I said, if there is a complete record to buy in Christian music right now, this is it.  Take my word for it.  Have I steered you wrong yet?

Go get it.
