this video was actually part 2 of this series, but i had to take it down when “the way” — the org that put it on youtube — removed it. but, thanks to alert reader dan read, it’s been re-found on a myspace blog. that’s some fine suit-wearing dancing there, big boy!

christian music cheese, part 6!
i thought this series was over; but alert and helpful reader dan rosch sent me a link to this wonderful video, with the comment that it looks like david crosby (watch — you’ll see him) and flock of seagulls (love the hair, man!). and who’s playing the piano? abe vigoda?
christian music cheese, part 5
a bunch of my friends (mark riddle, mike king, nate severson, and others) have been posting videos their finding of christian music cheese from the 70s, 80s and 90s (please, lord, i hope they’re all at least that old, and we can have — at the least — that little excuse). it’s some horrendously funny stuff.
so i thought i’d pull together a little series with some of these babies. for this installment, i’m going back to a classic i posted some time ago: li’l markie, baby! yeah! feel the rush.
christian music cheese, part 4
a bunch of my friends (mark riddle, mike king, nate severson, and others) have been posting videos their finding of christian music cheese from the 70s, 80s and 90s (please, lord, i hope they’re all at least that old, and we can have — at the least — that little excuse). it’s some horrendously funny stuff.
so i thought i’d pull together a little series with some of these babies. ok, our fourth installment is just horrifying: jesus loves you. that little falsetto riff combined with the eyes-popping-out-of-the-head routine almost put me in the fetal position, sucking my thumb.
christian music cheese, part 3
alas, the videos for parts 1 and 2 of this series are now offline (they were the most current of the batch, and i’m guessing someone wasn’t exactly happy about their rampage through the viral video world). so, we move on to part 3…

so i thought i’d pull together a little series with some of these babies. this third installment might be the all-time best of this series (which is why it’s had a good amount of blog play in the past week or so): jesus is my friend. yes — deep theology, with a tease of a ska beat.
quote of the day
sure, there’s some CCM that i like. but, in general, there’s some truth to this hilarious quote:
“Christian music always seemed like the Special Olympics of music.”

christian album cover of the year
some time ago, i came across some website (can’t remember what it was!) that had the worst album covers of all time. in the christian category, this one caught my eye, and i just have to give it some kind of an award, as crass as it is. the combination of exploitation, the gnarly 50s tour bus, the bitchin’ little organ, the image of jesus, and the fact that they chose to explain little richard miller’s uniqueness right on the album cover… well… it sure didn’t come out this year; but i’m going to give it the christian album cover of the year award anyhow.
i’m not sure whether to laugh or flinch.
oh, and, wait: how does he play that thing?
