Shine...make 'em wonder what you've got! But what does that REALLY mean? We are living in an upside down world and we need to stand out to unbelievers.
I knocked a star and a half off this because it is so repetitive. Every chapter seems to be almost the same thing, reworded. But it gets the message through. One of my favorite parts of this book was the personal stories from the band members. You realize that they are just people like you and me. They are not perfect and struggle through life, though it may seem they are perfect on stage.
Another cool thing is this book glows in the dark!
AWESOME!
Definitely a HIT | Posted July-08-2010
You want to know why this album is called 'Shine...the Hits'? Because all the tracks on the record are HITS! If you want a taste of the newsboys more classic songs, this is for you! They put this together in 2000. It has a couple new songs and even one from their first album, Read All About It! From Shine to Mega-Mix, which is eight minutes long, you will be dancing the whole time!
From the Start | Posted July-08-2010
Newsboys became a band in 1985. In 1988 their first album came out, Read all about it. I have to say that most of the songs off the record are quite lame. "Listen for the Shout" is just kind of annoying, "It's Joy" is too repetitive, but "I Got Your Number" and "Read All About It" are very awesome. All newsboys collectors have to have this album, just for those songs. Every band has to start somewhere!
Not What You'd Expect | Posted July-08-2010
After over 20 years the front man, Peter Furler, left the band to be with his family. The band could either quit or get a new front man. None of the guys were ready to quit, so they got Micheal Tait (of DC Talk)! A lot of the fans, including me, thought this would be the end of the band, but I know now that is wrong for I have just listened to their latest album, Born Again. This is their first album with all Tait's vocals.
It surprised me. It was really good! The hit song, 'Born Again', was already no. 1 on iTunes and a no. 1 radio hit and that is just the beginning! 'One Shot' and 'When the Boys Light Up' have those quirky lyrics that the fans love, for example, 'things change, just like the twitter that you update, like the facebook status on your front page, but there's no comment you can leave to change my mind!' There are also some awesome worship songs and pop songs. My personal favorite is 'Way Beyond Myself', although I heard some ladies' BGVs (background vocals). I thought, 'isn't this suppose to be newsBOYs?' But that didn't change how awesome the music was! It's not what you expect! All the tracks rock. And at the end of the album there is a surprise, 'Jesus Freak'! Of course it is redone by newsboys.
As a fan of the classic 'boys, I still love this album. The newsboys have been Born Again, in more than one way! If you're not sure you'll like this album, well, you will!
