Music - Don’t Die

angel_harp.jpg?

Now y?all probably know by know that I?m a pretty big music fan.? One of the reasons I started doing Billy Bob Neck?s Hour of Bein? Good was to get some of my favorite songs of praise out to world in hopes that listeners would, like me, start tapping their toes for Jesus.? When you listen to a song like Princess Ramona?s Then I Started To Yodel or The Sammy Hall Singers pouring their heart and soul into Plenty Of Time you can?t help but feel God blowing on your soul to stoke the embers faith into a fire of belief which Jesus tends and cooks your meal of salvation.

Music (at least music the way God intended it to be played) has charms to soothe the savage breast.? Some people claim that before making any major decision, President Bush listens to the Statler Brother?s version of Just A Little Talk With Jesus in order to clear his head and to keep him from making any rash decisions that might endanger the nation he swore to protect.? I start off Billy Bob Neck?s Hour of Bein? Good (or as we call it at home BBNHOBG) with Joel R. Cooper singing Cup of Jesus because, to change the change the words of the song a little, it starts my show off right.? No matter what kind of mood I?m in, whether it?s jubilation from preventing a homosexual teacher from claiming another classroom full of kids for the Homosexual Agenda or deep, deep sorrow from not being able to convince a girl not to kill her pre-born child, hearing the first chords of that song soothe my breast (savage or not!).

Even so-called “Christian rock” acts like Amy Grant

cannot help but flash the Devil’s sign
when singing Satan’s musc

The Devil being the Devil, though, has always got take something good and pure and Godly and turn it into something sinful and seductive and satanic.? Not long after humans learned how to draw pictures of trees and kittens, the Devil snuck in and told them to draw pornography.? When humans learned to cut the wool off of sheep to make clothing to keep them warm, the Devil?well, I?m not even gonna dignify that by finishing the thought.? And he did the same thing with music.? God taught humans to sing and play music for the express purpose of singing his praises but old Satan, he just couldn?t stand it, so he showed himself to the negro, Robert Johnson, offering to teach him how to play ?blues? in exchange for his soul.

“Bluesman” Robert Johnson deserves most of the blame
for the state of our young people today

It was downhill from there.

The ?blues? allowed Satan to jump into the soul of anyone who listened to it, throwing them under his control.? Sin exploded throughout the United States of America with more fatherless children born than in any other American century.? Soon, ministers began to make the connection between ?blues? and sin but by that time it had changed to ?rock and roll? and spread like the influenza of 1908 infecting and polluting our most precious resource ? our children.

I know you?re all probably screaming, ?Get to the point, Billy Bob!?? And I?m gonna do just that.? You?d think that knowing that rock and roll is the Devil?s music would keep sane people from playing it.? Satan?s a sly one, though, and the ?good life? of drugs, alcohol and meaningless sex (don?t sound so ?good? to me) seduces claims more than it oughta.? I?m hoping that this chart prepared by Bible Believers will cause at least a couple of those who read this website to steer clear of Satan?s lies.

The chart of rock stars who died lays out undeniable evidence of two important bible verses ?

Ecclesiastes 7:17
Do not be overwicked,
?????? and do not be a fool?
?????? why die before your time?

And

Romans 6:23
The wages of sin is DEATH.

Take a close look at it.? Study it.? Try to really understand that it ain?t just a question of which way you?ll go when you die ? it?s a question of death itself.

God is Love!

    Country music,like rock & roll is based on the blues! Country legends & stars have suffered from substance abuse problems but I think pressures of show business would be to blame,not the music! Robert Johnson’s selling his soul to the devil was an urban legend! I suppose you hate Jazz & just neglected to bash it too! Racists like Harry Anslinger & J.Edgar Hoover hated Jazz & Blues too! They smeared the music as immoral music for dope fiends too! In the 19th Century,the Waltz was called by preachers “A rollin’ in the mire” & “The rhythmic incantation of the Devil”! I think it’s absurd to blame a music style in & of itself as causing evil! I think there might be evil ideas in lyrics but not in the music style!

    It’s pretty funny that y’all now believe that hating the Devil is racist. It ain’t. It’s hating the Devil. End of story.

  3. Hark3n December 14th, 2006 10:12 am

    I guess I’m then gonna die pretty soon for listening to bands like Tourniquet, Saviour Machine and Virgin Black.

  4. Godless french December 14th, 2006 11:30 am

    Is the death chart up to date? because I see no new death since 97. Maybe God learned to like rock since then? or maybe He has enough rockstars in heaven now to form a perfect rock band and doesn’t need any more peopled fron now…

    WHAT WAS THAT BILLY BOB? I COULDN’T HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF YOUR IMMENSE BIGOTRY. ALSO, MY SATANIC MUSIC IS PLAYING PRETTY LOUD. BUT ITS MAINLY THE BIGOT THING.

    I still somehow fail to see your point, Billy Bob.

    Anyhow, the whole blog is, so to speak, an ideological rape, as ever. Mumbo-jumbo, twist, blah-blah, turn, gobbledeegook and hups! You have proven your point, whatever that was. Well you haven’t :) All I got from this article is that you seem to be on very good terms with president’s psyche and that “rock & roll is bad, m’kay?”.

    The music is cathartic tool. I strongly believe ancient people (you know, those Neandertals and Cr??Ǭ•-Magnons you deny ever existed) sang before they could talk.

    Also original music would seem like devil’s work to you as well, since it was mostly drumming. Nevertheless, it has spread and evolved.

    Most importantly, the music is created when the artist’s soul is bursting with somethin s/he needs to say/share/get out of his/her system. Thence, music covers all ranges of human emotion: love, hurt, loneliness, anger, joy, or just plain playful sillyness.

    Similarily, the recipient of the music (listener) usually picks the music that matches his emotional state.

    And the “saving chart for sinners” that lists rockers’ deaths is just silly. Look at any other mortality tables and you’d see stark similarities. What about comparing it with deaths of presidents of the US of A?

    most of the time i would just sit back and laugh at you untill my ribs hurt, but since you somehow managed to entangle bad grammar and hickish accents into your blog i just had to comment.
    Btw on the other comment… doesnt the bible say you shouldnt hate anyone… somewhere in there… maybe not in those words but somewhere in you’re twisted interperatation i imagine it could be found. next on the menu.. you are obviously intolerant of everything… i bet you if a newborn child had a birthmark slighty resembling a six you would kill it on the spot no questions asked. you are so intolerant of other things and change i bet you would sue your own penis for not being “straight”. i would even go as far as to say that you will probabaly delete this because im right and you know it. you sick fuck… people like you are the reason behind 9-11. heh… just think about, “I dont like your religion so i’ll invade your country and change your government.” them “no.”

    if i was forced to listen to pop country and “christian” music, i’d be dead by before i was 25 anyways. for all intents and purposes, music is more than just lyrics; plugging bible versus and “praise jesus” into the same 4 chords over and over again really doesn’t provide any kind of musical satisfaction. for those of us who play an instrument out of love of music itself (and not for any other reason), already know this.

    billybob-
    if you love music so much, just play it whatever way you want. you don’t have to love all genres (i know i certainly don’t)but you should respect them. music is the expression of one’s soul…if you do play it, you don’t do it half-assed! no, you play with everything you got, otherwise it’s just no good.

    You shoul go get some music of a nice little group called Dimmu Borgir, i think it would be your kind of music…

    Well, the Lords always shows up when you need him! After posting this, I was listening to CrossTalk America in the car and, my goodness, if this didn’t jump right out at me!

    i agree that the beatles were not “bigger than jesus” and that lennon shouldn’t have said that. however, that satement was made in 1966. he was assassinated in 1980. hardly an immediate response. that probably should have been mentioned.

  12. Danny Ditto December 14th, 2006 8:49 pm

    I don’t believe hating the Devil is racist,I believe calling music made by Blacks such as the Blues & Jazz “The Devil’s music” because one wants to demonize Blacks is racist! Unlike you,I know Black men invented Jazz & the Blues based on the music of 19th Century former slaves! I don’t believe the Devil invented it & gave it to said Black men! Excuse me if I didn’t make that perfectly clear! By the way, preachers in the 19th Century thought the Waltz was evil because the dance involved couples making physical contact in public! Anyway,I don’t know what you’ll think of this, but here’s a picture of the President & First Lady making the “Devil Sign”: http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/images/blbushsatanic.htm

    The list of “Dead Rock Stars” includes Country singer Charlie Rich,bluesmen,jazzmen,folk singers,”Beat” poet Alan Ginsberg & easy listening legend Nat King Cole whom most Rock fans would classify as “middle of the road”,like Sinatra,Bing Crosby,Dean Martin or Perry Como! And Bobby Darin did Rock & Roll in the fifties,then became a saloon singer like Sinatra, then briefly became a folk singer in the late 60’s, then switched back to saloon singing in the 70’s! If you’re going to blame Rock music for untimely deaths,you need a list of strictly Rock musicians to make your point!

  14. Farmer Jim December 15th, 2006 1:24 am

    Isn’t that Amy Grant an adulteress? It’s no wonder she flashes the Devil’s sign while she sings. Lascivious gyrations alone aren’t enough to overcome her cynical songs about families and faithfulness, as she lures innocent Country Music stars into a web of lust and destruction. Why are you featuring her on a righteous blog like this, instead of raising a stoning posse for the hypocritical witch?

  15. William M. Daniels December 15th, 2006 8:09 am

    If Rock music is all about sex & drugs,then how do you explain the 80’s Punk Rock sub-genre known as “Straight Edge” played by bands such as Minor Threat & Youth of Today? “Straight Edge” acts sang against smoking,drinking,drugs & sex! Does the devil work through drug-free living & celibacy too?

    When you listen to a song like Princess Ramona?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ¥s Then I Started To Yodel or The Sammy Hall Singers pouring their heart and soul into Plenty Of Time you can?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ¥t help but feel God blowing on your soul to stoke the embers faith into a fire of belief which Jesus tends and cooks your meal of salvation.

    Don?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t get me wrong, but is?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t yodeling smething only filthy southern germans and austrians do?

    God taught humans to sing and play music for the express purpose of singing his praises but old Satan, he just couldn?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ¥t stand it, so he showed himself to the negro, Robert Johnson, offering to teach him how to play ?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ?blues?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ? in exchange for his soul.

    HAHAHA! You don?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t even mind all that “godless” music played in Medieval and even sooner, yes. And what?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•s wrong about blues?

    The ?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ?blues?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ? allowed Satan to jump into the soul of anyone who listened to it, throwing them under his control. Sin exploded throughout the United States of America with more fatherless children born than in any other American century. Soon, ministers began to make the connection between ?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ?blues?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ? and sin but by that time it had changed to ?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ?rock and roll?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ? and spread like the influenza of 1908 infecting and polluting our most precious resource ?¢‚Ǩ?°?É‚Äû?ɬ¨ our children.

    1. I?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•ve heard some blues (most time in music classes, I don?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t really like it) and still, my soul seems to be at the place where it belongs: In my body. Whoever it is, be it Satan, God, Allah or whatever, it has to get my allowance first before taking my soul. End of debate.

    2. Blues changed to R&R? WTF!

    @godless french: Good question indeed.

    @BillyBob: Following your argument, god?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•s a snail. Taking 14 years to assasinate the poor John Lennon for something that wasn?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t even meant bad is sloooooow.

    PS: Rock Music is so and so imo. The Beatles are all-time-favs. But except for some songs of Ramstein, I can?Ǭ¨?Ǭ•t stand Metal at all.

    Here’s some nice lyrics for ya. Enjoy.

    God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
    Put it in the soul of everyone
    Do you know what you want? you dont know for sure
    You dont feel right, you cant find a cure
    And youre gettin less than what youre lookin for

    You dont have money or a fancy car
    And youre tired of wishin on a falling star
    You gotta put your faith in a loud guitar

    Chorus:
    God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
    Gave rock and roll to everyone (oh yeah)
    God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
    Put it in the soul of everyone

    Now listen
    If you wanna be a singer, or play guitar
    Man, you gotta sweat or you wont get far
    Cause its never too late to work nine-to-five

    You can take a stand, or you can compromise
    You can work real hard or just fantasize
    But you dont start livin till you realize - I gotta tell ya!

    God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
    Gave rock and roll to everyone
    God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you
    Put it in the soul

    (instrumental break)

    God gave rock and roll to you (to everyone he gave the song to be sung)
    Gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to everyone

    God gave rock and roll to you (to everyone he gave the song to be sung)
    Gave rock and roll to you, saved rock and roll for everyone
    Saved rock and roll

    Chorus repeats out…

    I know life sometimes can get tough! and I know life sometimes can be a drag!
    But people, we have been given a gift, we have been given a road
    And that roads name is… rock and roll!

    THIS IS INSANE. YOU ARE INSANE. ALTHOUGH YOU ARE ENTITLED TO YOUR OPINION, IT IS RIDICULOUS. AMY GRANT FLASHING THE DEVILS SIGN? THE SCARY PART IS THAT YOUR SERIOUS. YES SHE APPEARS TO BE, BUT HER ARM IS IN MOTION, IT COULD HAVE BEEN JUST THE ACT OF HER LIFTING UP HER ARM. MUSIC IS EXPRESSION WHETHER IT BE CHRISTIAN, RAP, ROCK, BLUES, ETC… EVANGELICALS HATE EXPRESSION AND I AM STILL AT A LOSS TO KNOW WHY.
