Citizen of Heaven (Live) - Tauren Wells

-
Citizen of Heaven (Live) - Tauren Wells Tauren Wells recently released a live version of a collection of songs from his last two albums and a few elevation songs. If you like live albums and you like Tauren Wells more likely than not you will appreciate this album. I have listen to about half of the album, and personally I think he sounds the same live and in the studio. For most people they sound better either or.

The song Ciitizen of Heaven gives major Michael Jackson vibes (do Christian's say vibes lol). The live version of Famous For (I Believe) ends with a tie in of popular elevation worship song - Do It Again. The song also features both Jenn Johnson from poular music collective Bethel Music and Christine D'Clario mostly popular amoung the Spanish- Speaking community both of which have sang previous versions of the song. Until Grace features Gary LeVox from Rascal Flatts like its studio counterpart.

Tauren Wells also sings songs poular on his debut solo album such as Hills and Valleys, When We Pray, Known, and God's Not Done With You all of which have the live flavor that was missing from the previous studio versions of said songs. He sings Echo a song he sang previosly on Elevation Worship Album Halelujah Here Below (great listen too by the way) with Davies a newer artist, which he also sings There is Something about That Name.

Homecoming (Live) - Bethel Music

-
 Homecoming, when I first heard about this album I was thinking " That's an odd name for a worship album."  After listening to at least the first and last song ( and maybe a couple in the middle) the name makes total sense. I was super excited about this album, much more than the last album from Bethel Music titled "Revival's In The Air". Actually, most of the songs from that album are great songs they just took a while for me to realize it.  The first songs I will talk about are the song that you may have heard before. These would be, of course, Son of Suffering, Too Good To Not Believe, Hymn Of Heaven, My King Forever, and All Hail King Jesus.   My King Forever I like the song but I was expecting a spontaneous moment or something; since the song has been recorded by Josh Baldwin multiple times before now.   All Hail King Jesus was ehh. To be honest, I have not really been a fan of Bethany Wohrle (who lead the song on this album). I love the song sinc...

Inhale (Exhale) - MercyMe

-
 Two songs, that's it only two songs that actually did not make me want to fall asleep. Not trying to be rude or funny but is it sad I just realized that there are usually only 2 songs on a MercyMe album that do not make you tired. Not that is boring it just sounds like something I would use to put my little cousin to sleep.  If you listen to the radio and hear a MercyMe song, it is a good chance those would be the only songs you would like. It wasn't that memorable but it was peaceful so if you need noise to go to sleep this is it. I can't even say more than a paragraph and a half it is just simple. Well... Happy Listening !!! :-)

Feels Like Home Vol 1 & 2 - Israel & New Breed

-
 Israel Houghton, more popular through his Praise & Worship style albums and his moniker Israel & New Breed. Of course, when the revelation that he fathered 2 children from a lady he wasn't then-wife Meleasa Houghton, Israel lost a lot of fans. I know that was years ago people still should not be talking about it. I am just being real. So this album like his album road to DeMaskUs is a little too Gospely for me. It is different if he was a gospel artist. But he really is Contemporary Gospel and Contemporary Worship than CCM or Gospel.  The covers of his older songs are interesting... I prefer the original but gospel music fans would probably like the new versions. He also sang his version of How Great a song he wrong with multiple members of covenant worship including the Binions. He covered multiple popular ccm songs that like I said are not my preference but there are a lot of people out there who disagree with me. He also has released a studio version of a song wi...
