Don't know that one. But that is a cool name.

It is.PS: Today I keep listening to Red: Forever.
It's really powerful stuff!
Good testimony words, too.
It is.
I think it fits parts of my testimony. That's probably one reason I like that one in particular. I like a lot of Red's songs, though. The first song I heard by them was Pieces. That one's softer than is normal for them, though.
Another thing I think attracts me to Red is that a lot of their songs are highly emotional--this really appeals to me, for some reason.
Someone mentioned to me one time that rock musicians must not have any talent because they don't use actual music notes.
Um...what? Just because they don't have a music stand in front of them doesn't mean they aren't using notes.

Well, thanks for drawing my attention to Red, Forever, anyhow.
To a Christian, the references of the lyrics are very clear, and the strong starts that the opening percussion and electric guitars give, seem to say: Listen to this! and then the percussion fades in and out around the lyrics. A nice touch at the end is when it suddenly ends as dramatically as it starts, isn't it?
This seems real hard rock & heavy metal. You have obviously found the style you really like.
The words seem to be about the voice of conscience, conviction of sin, the new birth, inner joy and eternal life.
(And I'll have to get to know other Red songs as well, including the one you mentioned just now.)
Blessings.
I'd kinda rather not say who it was. ^^; They don't know all that much about the instruments used in rock, apparently.questdriven:
Who was it that told you something like this?

Yeah, they do. They've accepted that I like rock, they're just "not sure" about it.
It's hard to say. I seem to have kept up an interest in it for like a year and a half now.
I'm not sure what my mom would think of that. She might accept it, but she'd probably be embarrassed to tell her relatives about it...some of them have strong opinions on those things.
Eh, I'm coming to a lot of opinions she doesn't agree with, and she's not sure what to think of it.
Gotta admit, I love both songs.PS: questdriven:
I listened to Red's Pieces.
So different from Forever.
I like the words of Pieces; it's like you said a lot softer. Kind of contemporary /easy listening, type of Christian song, really.
However, Forever really is hard rock!
Blessings.
Gotta admit, I love both songs.
Probably the music they used for Pieces fit the mood they wanted best, too.
