Dc Talk

Postby Gleph » Sat Jul 19, 2003 3:32 am

Since i Met you was the first Christian song i heard (aside from Hymns) Actually, it was on a Vandread AMV, and had no clue that Dc Talk were christians, and that Since I Met You was directed towards God. But God used it anyway. heh.

This was about September or so last year. I've tried to find songs of theirs since i found out about them. Many favourites. But Red Letters, Jesus Freak, Supernatural, and Since I Met You have special significance to me.

I recently bought their Free at Last, Jesus Freak, Super Natural and Intermission Albums. All top stuff, and God's using them lots too. Bless him ^_^ I just started listening to Jesus Freak again recently. Great song.

So how do others feel about this band?

God Bless

There doing solo shots (me thinks its a money making thing, they will reform DC Talk and sell lots of CDs.) Into Jesus was the first Christian song I ever heard...so I will always be a fan of there early stuff...to be honost I kinda feel there selling out for cash...but I think a lot of Christian bands are doing this...so whatever...Not a big fan of solo shots other then Kevins...his was the best. Shrug, to each his own. Supernatural was a good cd.

Jesus Freak was one of the first Christian rock songs I loved. Heh, I've been in the game a long time :P Lol.

My fave dc Talk album is um...prolly Jesus Freak. Good stuff, one of the first albums I bought...Free At Last and Supernatural are good too though.

I liked Kevin Max's solo stuff and Toby's too. :] Kevin is very talented, I wanna see more of his stuff.

LOL. You make it sound intentional... I really like tobyMac. God's been blessing me with the songs on that album too.

I managed to get the limited edition Supernatural album with their signatures on it. It's all good ^^

Jesus Freak is great, too. I really like Mind's Eye and the end poem. Of course Jesus Freak is a cool song too. The whole CD is awesome :)

God Bless

They used to be one of my fav. bands. I liked thier old stuff all the way to Welcome to the Freak Show. After that my music tastes changed so i don't listen to them any more.

nah it wasnt intentional, but it was rather a poor idea to throw a half full one in the crowd, plus he also chunked at least 1 full one. i just think its cool that i got the bottle that he actully hit some one in the face with. it makes an intersting conversation piece,
oh and she wasnt hurt either just surprised that she got hit by a water bottle.

heh, I don't get why excactly they throw their water bottles, but oh well.
I love dcTalk. They've got to be one of my all-time favorite bands. I was sad when they broke up. I really hope they get back together and SOON!

i consider dctalk part of the christian music evolution (not sure if using the correct name but oh well XD)

first was early dctalk then they slipped out of popularity

then came newsboys and then they slipped out of popularity as dctalk released supernatural which is probably one of the best christian music albums of all time.

then P.O.D. came and ruled the christian rock music scene

so it a revoevolution
thats the way i see it

okay to clear up a few things-DC Talk has not split up, they're just doing their own thing (one of tobymac's lyrics says "somebody told me that your taking a break, a sabbatical from rhyming on the records that you make, a little birdy said that wasn't the case, blamed your exodus on DC partners Kevin and Tait" and then Toby says "hold up, i didn't say all that") theyr'e still a band.

i own a lot of their cd's -nu thang, free at last, jesus freak, supernatural, solo, and tobymac's momentum. ive also seen tait in concert and ive seen dc talk in concret.

i love dc talk! those guys are my fav.
Lord, I don't know where this is going,
Or how this all works out
Lead me to peace that is past understanding
A peace beyond all doubt

I just got Free At Last 10 year whatevuh thingy (that's not really what it's called, heh) and so that makes all of 'em for me! Well, excluding the singles and that obscure Christmas "Yo Ho Ho" thing they did in '88. I am glad they added to their style instead of either 1) keeping it exactly the same or 2) completely changing it. They're maturing, really. Good stuff. My fave band.
Hey, y'know, I was thinking how all of the Ninja Turtles have Renaissance artist names, so I made a yellow mask for myself and called myself Pablo (Picasso), the fifth TMNT! Cowabunga, dudes and dudettes!

DC Talk first got me hooked to 'Christian music'. I'm not crazy about SuperNatural but I give them credit for all the masterpieces that they've ever produced. :) As about their so-called 'splitting', I kinda like their style when they're together rather than their solos...but of course, just me opinion..they're great either ways.
