God is no lyricist.

He's not supposed to be. God is a DJ.

Well there you go. Thanks for that. Actually sounded like a live band playing. Did you watch this UKRuss? An example of worship music.

Here is another form of christian church worship http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ObhvOeNCKhs

I thought it was pretty mean of the girl in the blue top, pushing that guy so he fell over the other guy that was already on the floor.

I did, but to be honest I think I had a pretty good idea what worship music was before witnessing the video.

Still not hearing anything specific to the genre that couldn't be found elsewhere...It has specific characteristics yes.Bit disappointed in that respect. Wanted some god synth breaks, didn't get.

Even the OP has responded to suggest the music is now more remeniscent of U2 and the like, well those kind of loops are ten a penny on the front of any computer music magazine.

No need to go hunting for a computer worship magazine.

On the other hand I suppose i could have just said that to start with.

Meh, whats an atheist to do if we can't rile some squadders?
