    pretty solid. Sounded like he didnt have all the lyrics completely down yet. Hopefully this is a full band song, theres definitely spots for fills there. If that was Tim playing next to dave I bet it would have sounded much fuller.

    My impression of it:

    Musically between Digging a Ditch and IBYU and/or Proudest Monkey

    Lyrically, like I said earlier, a lot like a Cry Freedom, but maybe with some Christmas song

    I think this song is big 3 worthy

    I can hear the band in my head with the song. I think it'll be really good. Probably won't be really jammed out but still very good.

    Only problem I have is now I want more

    Ok, just because it doesn't have many chords doesn't mean it's a bad song. Digging a Ditch is mostly comprised of two chords. Yes. Two.

    i cant wait to hear some horns!!! that was my first thought after it was finished "wow i bet some nice easy sax over the top of this would be money!" but yes i think the violin could shine here as well as a nice tim acoustic solo ala IBYU

    I can hear a nice violin on top as well. God I want this album now. Mercy reminds me of something but I can't place it...

    Also, was he tearing up?

    Nope. You're looking at it the wrong way. I find DAD boring because it's quiet with only a few chords. This COULD end up like that

    We don't need another sister/sweet/baby blue type song. Hope there's lots of room for the band on this one.

    Well they're alike in number of chords being used is all I meant. The point being it shouldn't matter how many chords are in it. Plenty of everyday songs are all over the place in terms of chord structure. The music should be judged by how it makes you feel when you hear it, and appreciate that change over time.

    Just my two cents...

    Sdaltons- fair enough.

    Not super impressed with Mercy...

    It was a nice "tiny little song."

    I really hope the new album isn't 3-4 nice "tiny little songs" interspersed with 3-4 "screamers," 2-3 poppy songs, a token "hoedown" song, and a "weird" song.

    Obviously I'm not going to cry foul based on a single, solo performance of a single new song we know nothing about yet. But may I take this occasion to say that God, I am so ready for this band to prove me wrong and put out a cohesive album
