Absolutely the best!!!

By LauraCC,
I have to say, I love this album! Here's why;
What This World Needs: The message is clear, the tune is unusual, and the background kids are a neat touch. However, it is a little hard to sing along to.
Every Man: Also difficult to sing with, but rings true. If you ask me, it should be the theme song to a TV series portraying a week in the life of ordinary people with tough days.
Slow Fade: Really speaks to those out there who think that they can get away with just a little backsliding. Good for role models of any kind, although directed to dads. Reagan is cute.
East To West: Who hasn't had days like this? Feeling so close to falling. Good tune, vivid pictures in my head.
The Word Is Alive: A very uplifting song. Although the title brings up thoughts of "Eek! It's alive!!!" lol, it's very vibrant.
The Altar And The Door: Very catchy. I love singing along to it. Mark says he wrote it on the bus to Nashville on a 4 hour ride. It shouldn't have had a "fade out" ending though. I memorized it.
Somewhere In The Middle: Metaphorical and slow, but that doesn't hurt it any. Doesn't get all cliche (sometimes my writing does)
I Know You're There: A rare one where the female vocals get the spotlight all to themselves. It works well.
Prayer For A Friend: Quiet like a real prayer, a reflection. I memorized this one too. I know so many people like this.
All Because Of Jesus: After hearing their version and Fee's, I like theirs better. It has more pep. A great song too. Profound without using many words.
White Dove (bonus track): Sung in Korean and English. I couldn't really tell who's singing lead because it's such a different style song from their usual repertoire. A song about peace, a universal wish we all have. It works well and ends this CD off beautifully.
I can't wait to get a copy of this. (I borrowed it from the library.)
