Does anyone listen to Christian music? I'm a catholic but I find it soothing and helpful spiritually...

Everyday.

Holy dubs confirm, Johnny is a Saint.

Gregorian chants always make my day.

Why do you listen to Christian music as a Catholic?

Someone posted the Melanesian choirs from the thin red line and I thought they were really beautiful

Also I'm not a fan of the Latter day Saints but those heretics have a choir that does some amazing renditions of classic American Christian music

Ngl, I have a playlist of CCM I listen to sometimes. In addition to that, I listen to Vaalam chants and Mennonite Choirs sometimes.

Medieval/Chant music is the closest to god one may get.

Why listen to Christian music when you can please God in all you hear?

I'd heavily recommend Sufjan Stevens if any of you haven't heard of him. He goes to an Apostic church and is a serious Christian, but forewarning; he's most likely an active homosexual (even wrote music for Call Me by Your name) and highly liberal, this may turn a good amount of people off from his music.

His music doesn't quite fit the bill of common Christian worship music too. It ranges from straightforward lo-fi folk worship [1], to strange prophetic songs about the second coming [2], a song about the apocalypse [3], songs about Christian sex [4], a song about the Transfiguration [5], MANY christmas albums, and many fun secular songs aswell.

Most of his work though relates to his personal life, in either brutally honest fashion, or in a complete fantastical way which relates in a symbolic/figurative sense, almost like a parable. This makes it hard for people who want to know more about him, because he doesn't do many interviews. For instance he has both a song about the narrator fooling around with his friend as teens and her dying from cancer (which has been confirmed to not have happened), and another song about falling in love with a boy at summercamp.

Either way his music is pretty great, on a purely musical level his stuff is worth getting into.

Judee Still is really good.

The Lamb Ran Away With the Crown

Once I heard a serpent remark
"If you try to evoke the spark
You can fly through the dark
With a red midnight raven
To rule the battleground"
So I drew my sword and got ready
But the lamb ran away with the crown
So I drew my sword and got ready
but the lamb ran away with the crown
Tho' the beast within me's a liar
He made me glow with a strange desire
And I rode on the fire, with a blue sacred opal
to bless the battleground
But I turned to see its reflection
and the lamb ran away with the crown
Once a demon lived in my brow
I screamed and wailed and I cursed out loud
And I sailed through the clouds on ten crested cardinals
To guard my battleground
But I laughed so hard I cried
And the lamb ran away with the crown
But I laughed so hard I cried
And the lamb ran away with the crown

I didn't know where else to post this autism
After the loss of his 7-year-old daughter in open-heart surgery in 1970, Gabriel began to feel more connected to "the other side." He began to explore spirituality outside of the Catholic Church and became a street minister to the poor and disenfranchised, working with ministries such as the Nicky Cruz Outreach and Youth With A Mission. In the late 1970s, Gabriel founded his own nonprofit organization and halfway-house, Son-Light Ministries, on 4th Avenue in Tucson, Arizona.

Found out she was an LGBT though

Videos like this make believe the Orthodox are correct, that there is no greater instrument for worship than the human voice.

Also the photographer poohing around during this, makes me furious. That ridiculously loud shutter sound every 15 seconds, the sound of him scurrying around like a rat.

I think this song is about the Holy Ghost

It is truly right to bless thee, O Theotokos,
thou the ever blessed, and most pure, and the Mother of our God.
Thou the more honorable than the cherubim,
and beyond compare more glorious than the seraphim,
who without corruption gavest birth to God the Word,
thou the true Theotokos, we magnify thee.

Yeah, the informal filming of it lacks in quality.. but the beauty of those singers still pushes through.

I'm the user you quoted btw.. I tend to change IP a lot. Here's a clearer version, but a little boy singing. Just as glorious:

I find the modern stuff sucks and sounds horrible. The chants and hymns stuff are good.

Honestly, it feels like it's another reason why the Muslims are able to win more people, cause they find a way to make their Islamic music sound like something a warrior would sing, not to mention the terrorist groups got that singer who sings those Muslim songs in those Muslim meme videos, although he's supposedly dead?

Anything Adoration of the Cross uploads I listen to. (youtube.com/channel/UCoLmw-7YiyXJA6Ma0DvAzhg)

Also anything from the Valaam monastery choir, these two basically constitute all my Christian music with the occasional more obscure chant thrown.

There's some pretty heavy christian stuff out there, for sure. This is one of my favorite worship songs out there:

Kabarnos - Eksomologiste

bump of ages

im catholic but i have a strong dislike for gregorian chants. on the other hand i find byzantine chants extremely beautiful; they compel me to worship the Lord.

everyone should give the liturgy of st. john chrysostom a try. especially the one sung by Lykourgos Angelopoulos

Check out Damien Poisblaud on YouTube. He sings traditional gregorian chant in a more eastern tone, in opposition to the very formal singing that developed in Solesmes during the 19th century. You might find it to your taste.

that's beautiful, thanks. I was worried about my aversion for gregorian chants, but this is really beautiful. What happened to them? They seem nowadays heavily musicalized, if that makes any sense. The tonal variation doesn't seem to serve a meditational function like in byzantine chants, but it's as if they were there only to sound pleasing. Do you get what I mean?

did you like Kabarnos?

I get what you mean, especially when organ is heavily involved.
Since the West threw out every form of tradition during the Renaissance in favor of muh classicism, it seems that every attempt to restore continuity is doomed to fail, apart from what is preserved in Monasteries (again, Solesmes is a good exemple imo).
I often struggle with my Catholic faith because the Orthodox seem to have a point when they say that Western theology is inherently flawed, while their own religious practices seem so timeless and otherworldly. From exuberant Jesuit Baroque times to the uninspiring Postmodern "Charismatic" stuff that is done today, it can feel like the Catholic church is the Bride of the world when it is actually the bride of Christ. We really need to end this schism already.

youtube.com/watch?v=06l4gRzVX2A

that's beautiful, yes, but why is he there? Is he turning the chants into an spectacle itself instead of the focus being God? Doesn't seen right with all those lights and chairs desu. It gets close to music as entertainment, and all entertainments are purely sensual: they stop us from seeking the Truth. One could argue he's helping more people find beauty in worship, but idk

glad im not out of touch with reality

...

thank you so much for posting this, user. This song (and, turns out, the whole album–which I checked out after you posted this) is truly, truly beautiful.
