But I agree w/Norman Your "I'm Clean" lyrics are so biblically accurate(bravo)and speak to people about Jesus's love and grace. I've loved Empty Me for months and appreciate that you stayed true to who are and your struggles and don't sell out. I love your CD! Thanks for the explanation....for them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-47037514577996262162008-05-12T09:03:00.000-05:002008-05-12T09:03:00.000-05:00Chris,So um, who are all these critics?

Anyway cause I love throwing out my 2 cents- I loved the first album don't get me wrong, it was afterall my first Chris Sligh album, but RBTY in my opinion is much better. IMO based on how you conduct yourself in public and online, I think it is very representative of who you are as a Christian, a man, a husband and an artist. Your personality comes shining through in all of these songs. Your comedic side comes across in other places, in your interviews, your interaction with your fans, etc. Listen, you just keep doing what you are doing, let the critics think what they will, as they will anyway. <BR/><BR/>Have a good week!DJ in ALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10688855990272617413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-90504198928778426472008-05-11T12:52:00.000-05:002008-05-11T12:52:00.000-05:00And Tawny, what's your status as well?

It sounds alot cleaner and I love Vessel it is becoming I think my favorite song on the CD I think...it is hard to choose. I went today to do some shopping and the Wal Mart in Derby Kansas is selling the CD. I bought the last one in the store today for my 10 year old because he loves it too and he is not getting mine. Chris I don't think you should explain yourself so much because some people are always going to be critical of what someone else has done and as an artist you are allowed to express yourself any way you are feeling. You keep doing what feels right for you and I for one will keep buying it.chamiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13673352309486985216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-60942285083339218902008-05-10T18:13:00.000-05:002008-05-10T18:13:00.000-05:00did you hear that bryan adams is starting an all a...did you hear that bryan adams is starting an all acoustic tour this summer?! wooo hooo!<BR/><BR/>the kids heard you on the radio the other day - good stuff!The Gang's Momma!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12478478224173323982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-91618602934408154532008-05-10T16:44:00.000-05:002008-05-10T16:44:00.000-05:00Really enjoy your music.

You were my fav when you were on Idol and it was great to hear you on the Christian Station here in Des Moines. If you ever get through here we have a progressive Lutheran Church that has a great new 2500 seat place for music. Pretty non-traditional church that has grown from 20 to over 10,000 in 15 years. The place is on fire! Just had Avalon and anticipate more Christian artists soon. You are perfect for our church!

Inside we all want to be the honorable hero and you just can't do that without honor. You also have a bonus where you can love your job....most of the time. <BR/>BTW went to the David Cook show at his High School. 10,000 at just that show and he played downtown too. You can't hide from who you are and around here he and his family are well known. Even if he had no talent I can assure you he is someone very respectable too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31810036.post-41781580144275860142008-05-10T11:40:00.000-05:002008-05-10T11:40:00.000-05:00Hey, GDA!

I think you've got that covered in your interviews. : ) I'm very excited to be presenting the CD's to the kids at church tomorrow. The lyrics of your songs are what motivated me to make sure they had your CD in their hands. <BR/><BR/>And on another note, should we be mentioning it to store managers if we don't find the CD when we're out looking? For instance, I saw a super nice endcap display at Mardel's (that's a large Christian/educational store owned by the folks who own Hobby Lobby for those not familiar with it). But I couldn't find it at my area Walmart or Target. I don't want to do the wrong thing, but I was aggravated to see Phil there and not you. (not that I don't love Phil...I just want to see both of you guys out there.)<BR/><BR/>Have a great weekend in CA! What an honor to be receiving an award. Dang it, I was a week too early there!

It describes exactly the feeling of assurance in Christ. No matter how wretched I am...I know that I'm cleaned through Jesus' grace and mercy shown on the cross. It's very touching for me....And I'm glad that you take your relationship with Christ seriously. As most in mainstream Christianity (Joel Osteen) sees it as one big money maker....God bless you.<BR/><BR/>-Norman<BR/><BR/>P.S I sent you a myspace message that I think you'd really appreciate...Please check it out.<BR/><BR/>Thanks.IknowIamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00270157567864388447noreply@blogger.com
