  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hello folks. Tom Petty made some good music back in the 1970s-1980s. :) One of them was "I Won't Back Down", a classic from 1989. 30 years later, an indie band by the name of Judah & The Lion covered the original. The music was changed from 4/4 time to 3/4 or 6/8 time and slowed down into a ballad. Slow ballads make me tear up and get emotional, which is one of the reasons I like that genre.

My favorite slow ballads:
Chris Tomlin - Indescribable is one of my favorite worship ballads, while Dolly Parton - I Will Always Love You (Danish National Symphony Orchestra) is my favorite secular ballad. The Whitney Houston version and the original by Dolly Parton are good as well. The saddest ballad is Skylar Grey - Coming Home Pt. II (the original version without rap, cos most rap sucks).

Your post has reminded me of this song a friend of mine online made me aware of which I had forgotten about until now.

Thank you for sharing this one. :) Another good slow ballad to sing out.

Over the last couple of years, indie folk songs have piqued my interest. They often have haunting bitter/sweet sound & lyrics and I frequently find myself searching for a song I've heard that has caused me to stop what I'm doing & listen. This is one of those:
