For some reason, Gavin DeGraw
is not nearly as famous as I feel like he should be. I have a bunch of his music and every time I hear his song “In Love with a Girl” on the radio I turn it up. I dig him but he’s never really had that breakout hit like Jason Mraz and “I’m Yours.” (By the way, Jack Johnson is the reason Jason Mraz leaned that direction which is the reason Train recently leaned that direction with their song “Hey Soul Sister.” It’s all related.)
I was reminded of my love for Gavin DeGraw recently when I got the album “Love & the lack thereof” by a guy named Greg Sczebel
. On the first track, Sczebel sounds a lot like Gavin DeGraw in a good way. Heavy on piano and fun hooks, I ended up digging this whole album. I thought you would too, which is why I’m excited to give away 5 copies. (That’s my review policy by the way, if folks send me books or albums, I’ll always try to give out copies to you too. Although sometimes people want to send me Amish romance fiction and I just can’t roll that way even if secretly I hope Jereziah does end up in the arms of Ruth Watterson on the lonely plains of Wisconsin.)
I digress.
Let’s have a wicked simple comment contest today.
The question is “what should we do with Stuff Christians Like in 2010?”
What should we add? What should we do less of? What topics are missing? What technologies are horribly absent?
Answer any way you’d like. (More posts about being single at church! Less giveaways! More Serious Wednesday type posts! Etc.)
Or if you’d like to see us just keep doing what we’ve been doing, feel free to say that too.
Comment until Tuesday, December 29th and then I’ll pick 5 CD winners.
Thanks!
