A couple years ago Phil Wickham got together with a bunch of friends for a very special night of worship called “Singalong” and the entire show was recorded & given out for free on his site! The album was amazing, so we were super excited to hear Phil’s announcement recently about another “Singalong” album coming soon.
Watch this video message from Phil to learn more about it-
Let me just say that if you haven’t heard Phil play live, then you are REALLY missing out! Here’s a look at a few songs from Phil’s first “Singalong” to give you an idea of what you have to look forward to 🙂 Also, if you haven’t had the chance to download that album, be sure to head over to iTunes to go check it out!
Loved viewing Phil’s snippets from the singalong! I first saw him live in Wichita KS about 4 yrs ago, and was awestruck–he’s got one of those unique voices, and he just wants to worship and get others to worship with the same passion! And he’s such a humble guy, not to mention that we both share San Diego as our hometown! I hope I can see him live in concert again soon.
Ha! Yes. I beveile the cheese was definitely intentional on the cover art front. Good call on that one!The songs I posted are actually the three simplest songs on the record as I always seem to get drawn into the minimalistic worship songs. Even though it is cliche, they always seem like I can connect with God a lot easier than the upbeat ones. So yes, you are very right that all three of the songs above could easily be done with even just an acoustic guitar.The what and the why is always helpful for all of us. It is so easy to get the meanings wrong of what the artist intended. Sometimes I like that (for personal interpretation sake), but it can be bad too. I read a youtube comment on the “sloppy, wet kiss” line and someone tied it into the bride of Christ rather than the collision of the Kingdom of God and Earth. That’s when it’s not so good.Anyways, thanks for joining the conversation Chris. I just put your blog on my blogroll (which randomly selects 5 at a time) earlier this evening.
