Yes, I know this is another "music by the decade" thread, but it seems as though the '70s was an era where Christian music was catching on. I think it was called the "Jesus music era" which spanned (from what I've heard) the greater part of the '70s (and even the late '60s). These were artists...

A couple of weeks ago, I started a thread dedicated to the great Christian music of the 90s (and thanks to all who have contributed to it thus far). :) I thought it would be nice to have a thread for '80s music, as well. The '80s (around the middle of the decade) was when I got my first real...

The '90s was the decade of my late teens and young adulthood. I had a lot of difficulties during that particular period in life, but that's also when my Christian music collection started to grow, and much of this music brought me joy and helped me cope. So... this thread is to post our...

(Edited to keep things simple... hopefully!) There is something I've been wanting to ask, and it's been eating away at me for quite a while. I posted this here as I figure that it is only natural for one in their 40s to ponder on such things from time to time, increasing with every year in the...

Yes, this is exactly what it is... a thread to discuss musical acts (Christian and secular, and varying genres) comprised of siblings, as well as post their music. I'm not sure if this thread has been done or not, but it can't hurt. The world of music is so large that there is no way we can...

This thread is to remember and pay tribute to the legendary talented TV star Charlotte Rae, famous for her Mrs. Garrett character on Diff'rent Strokes and its spinoff The Facts of Life. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/la-me-charlotte-rae-20180805-story.html Although I grew up watching...

Simply use this thread to share any fact or piece of information you wish that relates to our wonderful world of music. Anything that sounds good to you, be it instruments, music history, music artists, genres, songs, or other interesting tidbits, feel free to post it here. I welcome links and...

Here's another crazy WW thread dedicated to the underrated (to me) topic of rare and obscure recordings of music, which includes music that has been lost for years and finally rediscovered (or in some cases, discovered for the first time). I don't know, this stuff just intrigues me as I like to...

Many people who are familiar with my posts may already know that I like to dig for unusual sounds in the realm of music as well as individual musical pieces that have something unusual about it that sets it apart from other musical pieces (songs written in odd time signatures and beats, music...

Who doesn't enjoy a good old corny, cheesy song once in awhile? Well, I do! Okay, here's a thread to post such music, from any genre or era. Any song you think fits this category, feel free to throw it in here! I'll start with:

Just post anything jazz or related to jazz, any era, any sub-genre, instrumental or containing lyrics, by either Christian or mainstream artists. It can be straight jazz or it can be blended with other styles. That's it! :) Okay, I'll start....

This is just a simple thread to post songs about family. They can be about the family unit as a whole or focusing on certain members (parents, siblings, cousins, sons/daughters, spouses, etcetera), both Christian and secular, old and new, diverse in style, and in first, second, or third person...

Della Reese, singer and actress, passed away yesterday 11-19-17. Here is a thread to remember this talented lady. As we remember, let's listen to this inspiring song. This is a favorite of mine.

Yes, I picked this section of the forums to post this as I figured that we in our forties remember Kmart when it was in its prime between the mid '70s to mid '90s (with our childhoods/teen years/young adulthood spanning that basic time frame, with some overlapping). Otherwise known (or what used...

Discuss/share all L&H stuff here. Stan and Ollie were geniuses, and their comedy is timeless. This film is one of my favorites:

This is 15 minutes long, but well worth it, one woman's testimony about her upbringing in the Westboro Baptist Church and how she got away from it.

If you are a Shirley Temple fan (or even if not a fan can still appreciate her work and accomplishments), this might be the thread for you! Here, you can discuss anything Shirley Temple: her movies, her life after movies, quotes, what it is that makes her interesting, and so on. You can also...

In a recent casual study, I stumbled across the notion of something known as "Poe's Law"; it was said to be something that originated from this site sometime back and, to my knowledge (if I'm right) refers to a parody of extremist views on certain Christian theological and political issues being...

Well, today is the BIG day! Who's it gonna be? Trump? Clinton? We'll know soon enough! Let's put our differences aside for a short while and listen to some political hip-hop (from a balanced perspective so that anyone may appreciate them). :) On a serious note, I am strongly urging all of...

Curiosity is getting the better of me once again, so the time has come for me to pose a question for anyone who may be interested in answering. What are your opinions and feelings on Joan of Arc? Do you view her as a heroine? A martyr? A rebel? A misfit? Do you believe she was controversial for...
