You know, I'm about 99.9% positive I've said the same thing on LGM. I even asked once "am I the only person who can't really get with a song that has a blatant grammatical error?" I'll see if I can find that post. But yeah, I totally agree with you. I really hate that song, and only for that very reason.

I have NEVER listened past the first 30 seconds of this song. I just can't. My ears just shut themselves off....

That reminds me of one of my pet peeves. I meant to ask Nessa and Jonathan if they have the same issue, but I always forget. No matter how hard I try, I just cannot get into songs that have blatant grammatical errors (such as "God Has Not Forgot" or JH & VOC's "If You Praise Me" (hate it)... and there are plenty more on the list.

"Flowing from my heart...are the issues of my heart...is gratefulness."

I'd be okay with James Fortune if he didn't TALK THROUGH THE ENTIRE SONG!!!!!! I'm like "aye brah...shut up!"

Never was a huge fan of Mary Mary...wife loves them...the majority of their songs seems to be programmed by a drum machine or something.

Because of who you are by Vicky Yoie...it was cool the first 1,000 times...but now let's leave it alone.

Nobody Greater...too much air time...

It's the God in Me....ya know...any "gospel" song that is played on a radio station during a slew of rap and r&b songs

drake song -> Lil Wayne song -> Marvin Sapp song -> R. Kelly song -> Nicki Minaj song -> Mary Mary song

Some of the church songs that I really dont like are:

Wade in the water

This little light of mine

any other slave type songs

Song Artist Reason

Just havin chuch' Chester Baldwin It doesnt say anything about God. It just encourages being old & black.

Hosanna kirk franklin Hosanna meas "please save us" its not Jesus' name as KF says

Stomp Kirk franklin what the heck does stomping have to do with Christian living?

Cant nobody do me like Jesus "cant nobody" is a double negative and i means someone can do you like Jesus

They got the word MMC or dorthy coates The bible doesnt say gabriel will direct a concert or that you get shoes

ANY SONG BY................................ISRAE L HOUGHTON He never mentions Jesus by name and just yells random words into the mic

Love Him like i do Mary&Mary God is worthy of love because of who He IS not because of your $$$$$$$

Its the God in me Mary&Mary Same reason as above

He is Worthy Hezekiah walker It just repeats the same 3 words with an overly noisy beat.

Worthy Smokie norful WHY DOES HE WHINE SO MUCH.....SING LIKE A MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I need you now Smokie norful I H8 THE SAXOPHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The last song got on my nerves because of overplay. When I hear it every now and then, I Love it.

Israel is a beast and.....


Jesus At The Center - Israel & New Breed (LIVE)

And....Heze's Lift Him Up GOES HARD!!! He IS Worthy.

I sort of agree with some of the others you listed.

I had a song...but I forgot, lol.

I like most of their music...probably because Warryn is a bassist.

I really don't like Grateful. Not a fan of Faithful, but if I had to choose, it'd be the latter. Grateful is just unbearable. It just feels like such a lazy song. It reminds me of a lazy person. Sitting around being lazy.

Israel Houghton "Who is Like The Lord":

What can separate us from the love of Jesus;
'He will keep His promise,'
'there's nobody like Him,'
'nobody like Him, oh.'

Just if you were wondering. Probably doesn't make a difference. Also, "Alive","We Have Overcome", "I Know Who I Am", "Your Name is Great", and "Nothing Else Matters" to name a few. Just so we don't have erroneous blanket statements uncorrected.

wow somebody dislikes me lol

To revise.....the majority of his song, especially the ones i heard dont mention Jesus,and his voice is very annoying.

As well as the alternative rock style he plays.

Very lazy!

LaylaMonroe · « **Reply #236 on:** July 11, 2012, 03:39:43 PM »

I'm not an Israel fan, but I will say this: his formula works for him. He's a very successful artist and has contributed a great deal to modern P&W. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that for this generation, he's probably contributed more to P&W than any other gospel artist.

LaylaMonroe · « **Reply #237 on:** July 11, 2012, 04:42:18 PM »

Yeah I don't get into the technicalities of genres. The only differentiators I use are gospel or CCM (or if its absolutely necessary, inspirational).

Not true. Well, at least, in my case at least. I just thought the statement was a bit too generalized and unfair. Hm, interesting observation. What makes it lazy? Because he's black? Or because the way he plays it doesn't do justice to the style?

The arrangements certainly aren't lazy (more like overly complicated =\)
The hipster in me wants to say that that very thing is what makes him worthy of being reviled, but... I actually like the musical style. And the songs with more meaningful lyrics are pretty good. I think most people consider him more "urban P&W" than "Gospel" artist, though.

Israel houghton is probably biracial....when i first looked at him i though he was mexican

I have several vidoes on my youtube account about this very topic.....the ODR is false.

But as far as his music goes....it ALL SOUNDS THE SAME TO ME.......alternative rock!....a few guitar licks here and there but very little chord progression...and it all blends together blandly
