Today we pit a classic video favorite, with what I feel is the creepiest, most disturbing thing ever to label itself Christian...except for... perhaps... the author of this blog...be that as it may... Let's get to contestant number one...
Our first video is a Youtube classic. With close to three million views, it has been parodied dozens of times. The Group and has been labeled as "The first Christian ska band," and has been a candidate for our battle of the bands for some time. Desiring to make it on a post, I have yet to find anything that could compare to the...what word am I looking for...goofiness of this piece of work...until now...Sooooooo,
Ladies and gentlemen...For your viewing pleasure... From their album "First Fruits", Sonseed, with the viral video hit, "Jesus Is A Friend of Mine!!!"
When I first saw this all I could do was shudder, but after several viewings, it kinda grew on me. The disco like clothing, the pink stage background, and the catchy chorus, that I just can't get out of my head...."Disturbing" finally gave way to "cute" and now I can actually listen to it without wanting to gouge my eardrums out with an icepick...
My favorite part is 1:50 minutes into the song.
"He is like a Mountie, He always gets His man and he will zap you any way he can...
Classic theology at it's finest! What more can I say?
There are many words that can describe our next contestant ... He ministers in song, singing duets with the voice of a small child that lives in a 2 bedroom condominium in his stomach... I AM NOT KIDDING.... And if that is not disturbing enough.... sigh..let's just listen to the video...
Introducing, Mark Fox, singing "Fearfully and Wonderfully Made..."
All I can say is YEEEESH!!! Perhaps if this was done with a ventriloquist dummy it would be more tolerable or a hand puppet, or a voice over for a cartoon. but as it stands....Creepy!!!
A little googlidge of Mr. Fox brought me to this link, http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2005/10/the_secret_of_l.html where I found that he also recorded an entire album of childrens songs, that included "Diary of an unborn child, " a truly disturbing story of the life of an unborn fetus
untill it was aborted...I struggled through a few of the seventeen tracks, and decided that water boarding would be less painful... This makes telletubbies seem lame... If you did not hear me the first time, I'll say it again...YEEEEESH!!!
So if the above video give you the taste for "Sanctified Disturbing Children's Music," click the link and have a ball... As for me I would rather listen to a "Hee Haw" marathon while scratching a bottle cap down a black board.... It is that bad. }}}}}}SHUDDER{{{{
Ooooh, wow. That lil Markie video was BIZARRE. When he changed key, my body, mind and soul sensed that something was wrong and recoiled in horror! The maniacal laughter... ice pick for the eardrums, PLEEEEEEAASE.
ReplyDeleteI can't write any more because I am in hysterics after reading your remarks!!! Your sense of humour is HILARIOUS, Dorian!
Thank you, my dear brother, you have made my night. By the way, do I have to choose a winner??
With love always in Christ Jesus,
Angela
p.s. I can hardly type from laughing!
I think that second guy, lil Markie, needs an exorcism! My vote goes to the "zap" guy. I bet that tune will be in my head tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh, brother. God bless.
(Hey, it's ALREADY in my head!)
