Johns Observations

Talk about singing from the heart…Wow.

No one sings from the heart anymore. At least in Christian music.
With the rise of CCM, the heart element has been replaced with clever guitar riffs, and wristbands and such….However, Jason has it. For those of you who arent in the know… Jason Crabb anchored one of the most successful southern gospel groups of all time…the Crabb Family. They had hit after hit on the charts, and were influential within the genre.

Within the last few years, they have disbanded and started new ministries. This is one of their last performances as a family.

Jason is quoted as saying “I made a deal with the Lord….keep my voice healthy, and I will give you 110 percent every time out.” Id say they both made good on their deal.

What I want you to notice is how he sells this lyric. He totally believes everything he is singing….Its as if this lyric is an original—spontaneous thought of his. He combines this reality with a strong vocal, and abra cadabra…. You have a powerful moment. This guy is the real deal….. No fakeness here. This isnt radio friendly–fake worship music….This is a true moment of anointing and praise. He couldn’t care less about radio at this point.

I hope you have the priveledge of seeing Jason Crabb one day. What an anointed singer.
