Worshiping to Evanescence

September 13, 2009 in Music with 4 Comments

I believe in you
I’ll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
You’re taking over me
Evanescence, Taking Over Me

Shelly: “Dad, what’s this song about?”

Me: “What would you like it to be about?”

Shelly: “I don’t know.”

Me: “Well for me, it’s a worship song.”

Shelly: “I guess I can see that.”

Me: “Or maybe it’s just a song about obsessive love. It can be what you like. But I worship to it.”

Shelly: “You worship to everything.”

Me: “That’s right. Because the whole world is flowing that direction, if you pay attention.”

There are other Evanescence songs I worship to, of course. And music by other groups. And crickets.

You worship to everything”…that’s really high praise, imho.

Thanks for straightening it out, Rich. Evanescence is, of course, a fairly easy pick. What are some more off-the-path things that help you worship?
