War Child
Last week the praise band at my school played the song "40" in our chapel. They had practiced for awhile, and after me nagging them (my 3 best friends are in it), they finally played it. I, of course made 'woohoo' type noise at the beginning, when, in my school i see "40" by Bono, The Edge, Larry Mullen (they didnt have jr), and Adam Clayton. It was awesome to see that in my Christian school, where they really tighten 'worldly' stuff down. I know the leader, and he loves U2, though not as much as coldplay, and apparently the lead guitarist was bothering them about playing it (i dont like him, but he likes U2 so it was bomb). And I just loved being able to worship with a U2 song during chapel, where many people think U2 is just some mainstream, secular band, etc. (our chapel has 6th-12th graders) so im hoping this well help. The best part, I think was when my two buddies (backup guitar and bass) and the lead guitarist and drummer, played the music for 'beautiful day' and one of my friends who likes U2 was singing it loudly (i myself resisted the urge to go up and sing it myself) and then one of my moron friends was like 'LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!!' (he doesnt like U2, he usually starts saying rude sarcastic things about U2 during class which is annoying hes into that moron heavy metal crap) ok...my question is...
What do you think of "40" (and other songs, if you have ideas) being used as a praise and worship song? Have you heard it that way?
