Oceans, by Hillsong

Some songs just fit.
 
Listening to TFK's album The End is Where We Begin while trying to develop a new commission type.
 
questdriven:

So how do you mean, new commission type... :)

Blessings.
Well experimenting with doing light-based drawings on the computer. I'm starting to get somewhere with the experimentation, and I'm considering offering it up as a commission if anyone likes it. But I'm not getting much feedback, so I might just try offering it as a commission type up on dA, with the payment either being a small amount of actual money or a few hundred points (site currency). And see if it gets any attention.

Here's the pic I was working on: http://colliequest.deviantart.com/art/Dragon-432023858

Wow, this is good. Almost like professional/technical animation...

Blessings.

Animation is a difficult field. Lots of work. Difficult field.
I don't plan to get into animation, but I am going to do graphic design. Or at least I want to. Lot of work involved there as well.

And I do think this is at least good enough to charge money for. :) I hope so. I'm going to be using it as an example of the commission type.
 
Down, by TFK

I don't want to maintain, insane, get it up
You always play the blame game, no shame, had enough
I don't wanna maintain, insane, get it up
You always play the blame game, no shame, had enough

[VERSE 1]
Fresher,
Like it's the 1st semester
Rock it like Queen when I'm under pressure
While the rest of these cats, all siesta
Get loose like change when its on your dresser
BOOM
Here comes the real volume
Had enough to wake up and shake this tomb
I can act like skate decks in concrete rooms
We're about to face what makes this move

[Pre-Chorus]
People used to tell me that I'm on my own
They said I'd never make a difference on this microphone
'Cause there's a million other people who can sing this song
I said "Well, thanks for the push" 'cause you all were wrong

Let's Go

[Chorus]
You wanna try to take me under
I'll never bow till I'm six feet under
Listen to the sound of rolling thunder
You can't break me
You'll never take me down

[VERSE 2]
Explosion
Take it like rust corrosion
When it goes in GOOSH like you bust a nose in
Competitors
I was born to set it off
They wrapped me in cloth
I grabbed a mic and went on tour
Smash it
Back in school I was a hazard
Cause I never saw the glass,
Man, I just looked past it
Had a passion that burned like battery acid
Peter Parker, bit by some radioactive
(Shake this place in)

[Pre-Chorus]
People used to tell me that I'm on my own
They said I'd never make a difference on this microphone
'Cause there's a million other people who can sing this song
I said "Well, thanks for the push" 'cause you all were wrong

Let's Go

[Chorus]
You wanna try to take me under
I'll never bow till I'm six feet under
Listen to the sound of rolling thunder
You can't break me
You'll never take me down

[BRIDGE]
If you wanna rise up start with me
If you wanna stand up here's one for free
If you wanna rise up start with me
If you wanna stand up here's one for free
If you wanna rise up start with me
If you wanna stand up here's one for free
(Feel the movement, feel the pressure)
If you wanna rise up start with me
If you wanna stand up here's one for free
(Feel the movement, feel the pressure)
(Feel the movement, feel the pressure)

[Chorus]
You wanna try to take me under
I'll never bow till I'm six feet under
Listen to the sound of rolling thunder
You can't break me
You'll never take me down

You wanna try to take me under
I'll never bow till I'm six feet under
Listen to the sound of rolling thunder
You can't break me
You'll never take me down
 
Interesting lyrics...

So do you interpret the lyrics as directly Christian?

Blessings.
This song? Not particularly. A Christian band doesn't have to have Christian themes 100% of the time.
 
Recently discovered that Metallica are actually quite talented musicians beyond their cheesy popular stuff like "Nothing else matters".
They made an album with cover songs in 1998. Very awesome.

*Edit: link deleted because on second thought language and topic of some of the songs may disturb some christians and are thus inapprobriate for this forum.

A bit like Bach's counterpoint, right?

Bach was a talented musician, too. :thumbsup

Oh btw there's a bit of coarse language on the Metallica album I didn't think about when I posted, so I guess I delete the link before I get into trouble. :oops2
 
Well,I have my window open so I am listening to the sounds of God.Birds,the trees waving in the wind,the sound of a river below. :)
