Do you listen to gospel music?

[DizzyDesii]

Please dont be rude. Just give a simple yes or no. But man how can anyone not listen to Yolanda Adams? She’s definitely one or my top 3 gospel singers. Her music gives me the chills. It makes my skin crawl in the best way. Her voice is amazing.

This song above gives me Beauty and the Beast song vibes with the way it flows.

This one above is the ultimate skincrawler.

This orchestra instrumental just makes you want to dance with a glass of wine in your hand

This song above definitely reminds me of the National Anthem or the Wedding Song with the way it flows

[TheSpaceGnome]

No, I also don't listen to opera, country, classical orchestra, banjo music, death metal, dub step, rap, hip hop, r&b, jazz, blues, the kind of 60s, old timey music in the fallout games, whatever you would call the genre that the titanic theme is, girly or kids music like the stuff on sing a longs, disney, hanson, or barney, and a bunch of other stuff.

Typically speaking when its mostly about vocals or telling a story or message, rather than complimenting instruments for audible aesthetic reasons, I tend to lack an interest in it, and in many cases find it irritating to listen to in the nails on a blackboard sense, also if it's too chaotic, lacks rhythm, has shrill or hoarse screaming, has vocals that overpower the instruments, or has too much bass to the point of distortion, I don't like it.

I'm pretty picky with music, I like the sound of an electric guitar rift, violin, cello, and full on orchestral, I like drums for dramatic buildup, I also like that flute noise in japanese ninja-esk type stuff. I like techno, upbeat adventuring type music, and the type of epic themes in action movie/sci fi movie/fantasy trailers or videogame boss battles or cinematic scenes, I also like 8-bit-16 bit retro style music (I remember an instrument for this, its chinese and has a bunch of small pipes in a bundle, but I forget it's name.

I really like buildups that lead to cresendo events in instruments, and I'm not huge on songs having vocals, but some exceptions exist, like the themes to skyrim, halo, or the stuff that two steps from hell or immediate music might have, I think an exception might be stuff like what miracle of sound or the aviators might have, where it almost has the vocals trying to be the base rather than the quior? it's hard to explain.

[Zaneprodigy]

I LISTEN TO TOBYMAC/MANDISA/HAWK NELSON/JOORDAN FELIZ/MATTHEW WEST/RYAN STEVEONSON/HOLLYN IF THATS WHAT YOU MEAN

[DizzyDesii]

Wow! I also like Toby and Mandisa. You should check some yolanda above as well

[Zaneprodigy]

ok

my entire spotify playlist is filled with christain songs from 30 diffrent artists

[DizzyDesii]

Love it

[sheikalana]

I do not have the habit but I absolutely love gospel music. I've watched this show on Netflix called Voices of Fire and I looooved it I cried in almost every episode. Such beautiful voices and melodies and it really makes you connect with God. In my opinion Gospel music is very underrated I know it's very popular in the USA but is not so popular around the rest of the world.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea even in the usa its underrated. Only the southern states seem to wear it out. But i definitely recommend the 4 somgs I posted above

[mimi051998]

Yes, I do. I haven't listened to her yet but I'm more of Kirk Franklin and Tasha Cobbs Leonard fan.

[DizzyDesii]

Check the 4 songs above. They are EVERYTHING

[Zaneprodigy]

kirk franklin is good

[DizzyDesii]

@Zaneprodigy absolutely! I still miss his old stuff
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3CiqqyoX7gA

[mimi051998]

@DizzyDesii Yes, that was one of my favorite songs from him.

[DizzyDesii]

I was dancin to it as a kid. I also liked this
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jr41skFqzb8

[ladsin]

Not much, but love Wade In The Water and Down In The River To Pray.

[DizzyDesii]

Oooo you went waaaay back

[ladsin]

Oh, and pretty much all the gospel (blues?) music Mississippi John Hurt covered is, “you got to walk that lonesome valley,” “I shall not be moved.” https://youtu.be/tLc8YeXP8FY

[DizzyDesii]

Check yolanda above. Listen to Open Up My Heart

[Not_Average]

There's some I like but I'm very careful on who I choose to listen to as a lot of these artists don't actually follow the word of god. I listen to all kinds of music, but if it's going to be gospel, then it at least needs to align with what the bible actually says.

[DizzyDesii]

I understand

[Shaggy_KW]

I don't know if it's gospel but my grandparents strictly listen to christian music. For those who don't listen to christian music, imagine some words along the lines of, god is the king/lord, Jesus is the savior/son, something about the holy spirit. Got your chorus? Cool, now repeat it over and over for the whole song which is 5 minutes. I'm not saying it's bad music, rather catchy and gets stuck in my head. I'm sure that lots of people love it but PERSONALLY, it makes me want to blow my brains out, not trying to be rude, just a personal opinion.

[Lliam]

No. I'm not religious. But some gospel music kicks total ass. Some of that shit makes me feel like waving my hands in the air and crying "Hallelujia! Praise the Lord!" LOL

[DizzyDesii]

Yea you should check the stuff above

[Lliam]

I checked them. Not my thing.
Here's an example of the kind I'm talking about. Start at the 3 minute mark and listen to the end.

video.search.yahoo.com/.../search

[UncleKracker96]

I’m more of a country gospel music listener than anything. Like one of my favorite songs is Holy Water by We The Kingdom. This song has a lot of meaning behind it and it really reminds me of how bless I am to always have someone by my side that cares for me. Even tho we all may sin God will still pick us back up and give us a new start.

[DizzyDesii]

Maybe you know some of the ones in the update then

[UncleKracker96]

Nope

[JosyJosy]

I used to. I'm that person who will listen to instrumental music for weeks, then pop for the next few weeks and so on and so forth :) thanks for these I'll definitely go through them all. They're usually pretty lively

[DizzyDesii]

I hope you enjoy :)

[JosyJosy]

I'm LOVING Victory, I'm stuck there

[DizzyDesii]

Yes that instrumental is everything!!

[JEndigoBleue]

Yes... The Clark Sisters are my all time favorite female group. Love me some Fred Hammond and Commission.. all time favorite male group. Rance Allen... I love all variations of Christian music. Jazz, country, rap, choirs, etc. Listening to Lacrae, Wande, Koryn Hawthorne, SEU Worship, Toby Mac, Elevation Worship, We Are Messengers, Matthew West... Just to name of few. I love my old school gospel from the 60s to 90s.

[MysticDevice]

I do not. It isn't the music style, I listen to a lot of stuff that sounds very similar, I just don't like the religous implication.

If you want to hear them I'll send you the links. Its good stuff lol

[DizzyDesii]

So like contemporary christian?

[MysticDevice]

It kinda sounds like it but its not. Its more Alternative and straight up Heavy Metal. It isn't religious but its spiritual

[DizzyDesii]

Ohhh I've heard that before. Do you like This one
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xN0FFK8JSYE

[MysticDevice]

[DizzyDesii]

Love kirk franklin. Check the update

[amber8894]

I love gospel music
especially Trey McLaughlin choir
they are amazing

[DizzyDesii]

Ooo i gotta check them out! Do you listen to yolanda?

[amber8894]

No I don’t listen to her..

[Wiredone]

What are you crazy girl what's wrong with you. lol. I'm never rude, did I do it right?
When I'm in an inspirational mood I listen to gospel music. It's very soothing

[DizzyDesii]

Omg yay :) listen to Open Up My Heart above

[Wiredone]

I guess I was rude? I never paid attention to who sang it but I've heard it several times. We have a gospel radio station that I listen to when in in the mood.

[Uptowngirl88]

Yes even though I made that shady update 🤣 on my post I love me some gospel. I was playing it when I made the update. It was Fred Hammond wait on the lord.

https://youtu. be/mYrI7oClid0

[Uptowngirl88]

I probably should've waited on the lord before I made that update but that's OK he still love me

[DizzyDesii]

Someone else mentioned Fred. Ima have to check him out. But i love me some yolanda. Do u know her songs above?

[Uptowngirl88]

Girl yes he can sing

[Titanic1912]

I listen to gospel music all the time. I’m a Christian and I love worshiping God every chance I get.

[DizzyDesii]

Sounds amazing! And im with ya on that :) check some songs above

[AdithyaR]

I'm not sure I know what gospel music is. If my hunch is right and it's religion related then I'd probably not be interested.

[DizzyDesii]

I understand. And yes its religion related. But even outside of that, it has some talented singers. You should listen to Open Up My Heart above just to hear how wonderful her voice is

[AdithyaR]

I'll check it out

[exitseven]

Some of the stuff Johnny Cash used to do was pretty good but generally no.

[DizzyDesii]

You should check the song above called The Prayer. She sounds amazing

[exitseven]

Music and lyrics are good.

[DizzyDesii]

Does it sound like that Beauty and the Beast song?

[exitseven]

I didn't think so but now that you mention it, it does a littel.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea im lovin it and i dont even care for the beauty and the beast song 😂

[loveslongnails]

I appreciate the talent of gospel singers, but don't always like the music itself.

[DizzyDesii]

I see. Well yolanda still killed it 🤪

[loveslongnails]

I believe that's what I said. :)

[DizzyDesii]

[BUNroaster]

Used to, I haven't heard many these days that are as good as some of the songs from the 90s. So but I really liked these you shared.

[DizzyDesii]

Wow you should check Victory above

[DizzyDesii]

Oh thank yiu! I just realize you checj em already haha

[BUNroaster]

You're too used to me not reading everything in your question, I get it lol

[DizzyDesii]

Haha yea

[BUNroaster]

I miss the music like Stomp all the way.

[DizzyDesii]

Abso-friggin-lutely

[goldmelanin]

Love Yolanda. Mary Mary. Kirk Franklin. The Clark sisters, etc. It brings so much peace and can make you feel so uplifted and in good spirits. I love it!

[DizzyDesii]

I saw the clark sisters movie but im not familiar with their songs. I love the others you mentioned

[Jamie05rhs]

Yes, I do. And I like Yolanda Adams. (Isn't she a DJ as well?)

[DizzyDesii]

Im not sure but i got to meet her and Mary Mary in Texas! It was awesome

[Jamie05rhs]

@DizzyDesii Wow! Awesome!!

[Bklynbadboy12]

Yes I love her and Fred Hammond I have a lot of gospel singers I like

[DizzyDesii]

Same! I love Mary Mary and Tamela Mann as well

[Bklynbadboy12]

Me too kirk Franklin too

[DizzyDesii]

[Bklynbadboy12]

[Bklynbadboy12]

I love miracle too

[Joey_007]

Just a thought what are your thoughts on heathens
FlawlessCheeryGrouper-max-1mb. gif (244×254) (gfycat. com)

[Joey_007]

[DizzyDesii]

By twenty one pilots?

[Joey_007]

No, just like in general

[electromagnetic]

I don’t listen to gospel. Partly because I’m not Christian but also because I can’t seem to find pleasure through it.

[DizzyDesii]

Aww you should try Victory above though. Its so cheerful and dancy

[suisuiola]

I've only listened to gospel music once at that was when I went to church for the first and only time three years ago hahaahah

[DizzyDesii]

Lol i see. But at least check out Victory above

[Shiver]

Nah, just not something I've heard much of. I do like Valhalleluja by Nanowar of Steel tho. Gospel goes hilariously well with metal. Everything does tho, so I'm not really surprised. Lol

[Sonorous]

Only if it sounds like this:

https://www.youtube.com/embed/MimVg0OMGvA

[Kenneth14621]

I do not believe in God. But I do listen to preaching and gospel music because it is so encouraging and sounds amazing.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea gospel is great. Check some of the songs above

[JUST1NC]

Does ghost count? Genuinely curious

[DizzyDesii]

Ghost by who?

[JUST1NC]

Heh no lol the band ghost for reference the song he is, is probably the most gospel song they made on second thought I don't think they are

[DizzyDesii]

It could count honestly

[yourbabygirl921]

Ofcourse I love listening to rap gospel

[DizzyDesii]

Oh yes same!! But check the song Victory above too

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

No. What we call "gospel" isn't actually gospel but just music with God here and God there. Jesus here and Jesus there. It's basically worldly music and mentioning God a couple of times.

[DizzyDesii]

Yea i can see that

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

I actually saw open my heart video you posted. No mention of Jesus, the blood Jesus, the resurrection of Jesus, the holiness of Jesus, no mention of sins or repentance of sin, no fear of the LORD nor mention of hell fire. The gospel includes those things.

It's not gospel music.

I like spiritual hymns.

[DizzyDesii]

Relisten, she mentions the word “Lord” like twice

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Exactly my point. Lord who? Lord simply means master or ruler. Your boss at work is your Lord. Lol

[DizzyDesii]

Nahh but i hear ya

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Look up the definition.

[ChrisMaster69]

Nope

i also stopped using my knob to hammer in nails.

[Dargil]

Not often, but I rather like (!) Gregorian Chant.

[DizzyDesii]

haven't tried those yet. I recommend the song above called Victory

[Dargil]

www.bing.com/.../search

[Riddler1412]

Simple answer?
Maybe 4-5 times a year.

[DizzyDesii]

Nothing wrong with that. Outside of church, I probably listen to it one day every other month if that. But check the song Victory above

[NewGlados]

No i don't. I am a Turkish person and i don't know much about christian activities. I have just learned gospel music.

[DizzyDesii]

Okay well feel free to check some above

[Matt57]

Just gospel from like early country and blues

[DizzyDesii]

Ooo nice

[DaveToo]

Occasionally. I sing in a gospel choir.

[DizzyDesii]

Oh wow amazing. Do you know any of the ones above?

[DaveToo]

I know OF them. Some aren't really gospel though.

[DizzyDesii]

Gospel to me is any song about praising the Lord or encouraging others to

[Justneedtokno]

Yes love the artist you have above

[DizzyDesii]

Thank you :) im glad you enjoyed

[Open2It]

I'm not a very religious man and I don't typically seek it out, but I love hearing good Gospel music... especially by choirs.

[DizzyDesii]

Glad to hear :) pleeease check the Victory song above

[Mehzmeh]

Not since I got kicked out of the church. Lol

[DizzyDesii]

Dang what u do

[Mehzmeh]

Went against what they considered "gospel" music. And when they voted to kick me out. I cursed them all out. Lol

[DizzyDesii]

How can they vote to kick someone out! Wow

[Mehzmeh]

I was the choir director. And in charge of the music for my district. (Washington and Virginia). Lol.

[DizzyDesii]

Ohhhh

[Mehzmeh]

Yup. Lol

[Tim-loves-it]

Depends on the genre.. Im a metalhead.

[DizzyDesii]

Check the update songs called Flyleaf All Around Me and Switchfoot Dare You to Move

[Tim-loves-it]

Switchfoot is good.. Went to a Barlow Girl concert years ago at the church.. They rocked!

[DizzyDesii]

Wow amazing

[Tim-loves-it]

I went to a Christian bookstore, and they had a computer, ya put in a mainstream band such as Metallica or Megadeth and itll pop out a Christian equivalent. So i entered it in.. Got a band called Demonslayer. Still haven't hard them! LOL

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao

[Agape93]

Nope

[DizzyDesii]

Dang Yolanda’s voice is a wonderful talent to miss out on. But I respect your stance 🙏

[Agape93]

:) ❤️

[DizzyDesii]

I understand if you dont want to but that first song above gives me beauty and the beast song vibes. If you decide to give a listen, let me know if you hear it too. If not, i understand

[Agape93]

Oh I did listen to it, and it was nice, gospel music just isn’t my jam lol sorry I wasn’t very clear :)

[DizzyDesii]

Ohhh i see. Did it sound similar to B&B to you?

[Agape93]

B&B?

[DizzyDesii]

Beauty and the beast

[Agape93]

Oh ok yeah it kinda did

[DizzyDesii]

Usually i dont like songs being sampled but that was a good instrumental

[Agape93]

What sort of music is your favorite, anyways?

[DizzyDesii]

Oh man i can't choose lol. I have a huge taste in everything

[Agape93]

Only things I refuse to listen to is rap and country lol

[DizzyDesii]

Aww both my faves haha

[Agape93]

Lol xD

[Bellatris]

No, I don't listen to it. Not my thing.

[DizzyDesii]

[Ripper_E]

Nope

[DizzyDesii]

Do you like Beauty and the Beast? I just wanna know if that first song above reminds you of it

[Ripper_E]

Reminds me of Disney in general lol

[DizzyDesii]

Haha and the last vid above reminds me of the national anthem

[Ripper_E]

A little bit haha

[DizzyDesii]

Haha yes

[AydenHazor]

Yes, it's fantastic

[DizzyDesii]

You should listen to some of the ones above :)

[AydenHazor]

When I have time I hope to, but just got home a few minutes ago and almost passing out

[DizzyDesii]

Lol did you get to play frisbee

[AydenHazor]

I did not

[DizzyDesii]

Aww well i hope your day was some kinda fun

[AydenHazor]

Work and then dinner with a friend. Dinner was fun 😊

[Leavesbound]

No. I do not and have no use for it.

[OlderAndWiser]

I rarely listen to gospel music.

[123lucy]

No, I'm not religious anyway.

[H8INCHES]

Only in church..

[DizzyDesii]

Thats how it goes for most of us haha. But check a few above

[Anpu23]

No, not really my style.

[EaterPeter]

May be. I don't know much about music genres.

[DizzyDesii]

You should check the Open Up My Heart song above. Its powerful

[Wise4myage]

No, I cringe at the thought.😪

[Xoirwinkan]

I like Alan Jackson's country gospel songs.

[princeofromance]
