I miss Larry so much. He was one of the early voices crying in the wilderness. That Jesus is still alive and wants to be in fellowship with us.
I belly laughed hard when he started to speak the backtracking. I hope we're all ready!
Larry Norman - Great Christian. Brave. Honest. Revolutionary in his time.
This song became my anthem after I stumbled across it by accident. As a teen who’s gotten into rock music, but also loves the Lord with all my heart, I feel so understood by Larry and I love his music so much. Currently halfway through a biography written about his and I’ve never felt so well understood. Anywho, love rock music, don’t believe it’s satanic, and live and love the Lord with all that I am. ❤️
I am going through the same thought process!!! Larry said, “I’m too secular to be accepted by the church, but too Christian to fit in with the secular.” That is exactly how I feel too.
I just watched the Jesus Music movie and it changed my life. If you don’t mind me asking, what is the name of the biography?
I'm an atheist, but this performance, and this song, and Larry himself are an awful lot of fun.
+James Richards Hey James. I'm somewhat responsible for getting Larry on the internet I suppose. lol. Not sure if that was a good thing. But let me tell you I've never laughed harder I don't think than when larry was describing the treatment he got overseas when he had his heart attack. We were literally falling out of our chairs laughing and Larry with a totally straight face goes "uhh..I..I don't know why everyone is laughing..this ..this was really serious!" and everyone just laughed all the harder.
This was one of the most talented entertainers in history. He was pretty worn out by this time but still amazing.
Think about something for me though. It might be it'll be something you haven't considered before. When everything is just physical laws and matter/energy (matter is harmonically localized energy actually. We find this out when we collide an electron and positron of course. The mass vanishes and we are left with a cosmic ray that has the precise energy corresponding to the former mass via E=mc^2) then "Choice" is kind of a bizarre term.
Let's consider a child's first choice. Whenever it happens whether in the womb or out of the womb a child makes a choice right? Ok if the factors that determine that choice are purely physical laws and the prior state of all matter/energy the instant before the choice (including things we would call 'random' simply because we can't assess what the precise causes are of the effect) then in reality the child was responsible for exactly zero of those things. :-) Hence the child only made what appeared to be a choice.
So if you know you have choice, then you know there is a dimension beyond just the physical things we observe with physical eyes.
you took the first step.. we all worship a god, whether it be our family, job, drugs, etc... where you put your time and money is your god, false idols, repent and trust on Jesus, he died on the cross just for you
Yes Larry was a funny entertainer. He wrote a hundred cool songs. He would say to you K. Jesus lives you why not let HIm in ? Start a new year off on your right foot!
i'm a non theist also. check out grammatrain. they covered larry and that's how i heard about him, because they are probably the best xtian band i listened to growing up, since "secular" music was banned from my house. because of larry and groups like grammatrain, "secular music" doesnt have to mean "good music"
what is it about us that makes us neeed to know "who's callin the shots? " am I me? or am I all? hav a mind of my own? what does that mean? prima frooty, on its face, at first blush I would go with the whole people do what they want/have to ..personally, if you want to talk about things that REALLY don't exist - try lookin into Chaos Theory..far as I'm concerned THAT's the obligatory santa clause!
Rest in peace Larry loved your music, you have your critics as we all do, i don`t care what the critics are saying GOD USED YOU MIGHTILY AND CONTINUES TO DO SO WITH THE MUSIC YOU LEFT BEHIND. TO THOSE CRITICS I WOULD SAY THE ONE WHO HAS NEVER SINNED THROW THE FIRST STONE HE WASN`T PERFECT AND NEITHER ARE WE. WE WON`T BE PERFECT TILL WE GET TO HEAVEN. GOD BLESS YOU LARRY
I love this song and do Larry Norman was imperfect like all of us he did a great work for the Lord. I hope anyone listen to this who hasn't accepted Jesus as her savior after hearing this what's up Jesus as their savior good God bless Larry Norman
This is the Larry I remember from the late 70s/early 80s. An excellent communicator/writer/musician/comedian. He inhabited a complete genre on his own. Can't think of anyone else with his combination of talents.
I saw him at the joyful noise all he had with him was a guitar I learned about Jesus that night.
Some of what he was saying was true. However God told me my record collection hindered me to hear God's voice. When I asked Him why I wasn't growing spiritually. So I burned them and other things He didn't like. And WOW what a change that did in my life. I'll never regret geting the "wordly" stuff out of my house. Peace
Boy do I miss Larry Norman! I miss his music. I miss his prophetic and irreverent attitude. I'm waiting for the next prophetic voice to rise up within Christian music.
i do believe the devil gets through young people by music. but the devil will get through by many things.
but we have to be diligent in the Lord and know what is if God and what isnt. we need to worship in the spirit. God will reveal.
He's a comedian, as well as a songwriter. And a good one, too!
He is a multi talent person,good musician,good standup comedian and good preacher.
I wish I had a video of the one time I saw Larry Norman. It was the main stage of Cornerstone '90 in Illinois, the sun was low in the sky and was illuminating him with its warm, gold, and he was just fantastic, and I was just nominally a Larry Norman fan, but he just blew us away. I really felt the connection. It was so great.
The Rock Father's night was great and women have been able to make LOVE AND FILL THEIR WORLD with people that are very welcome to make LOVE AND FILL THEIR WORLD with people over and over again!
I was at Cornerstone that day too. I got to meet him and he was such a humble guy. We had such a nice time talking. I met Mark Heard that day too.
Oh that awesome..... I started my cornerstone journey in 1998, thanks for forging the trail..... Still go to the amazing remnant, Audio feed....oh, my UA-cam pic is afeed lol
Our FATHER (whether we claim HIM or not) has blessed me beyond compare. I ran and blasphemed and mocked and I did everything else disrespectful to a FATHER that created me just to have a relationship.....HE (THE WORD) welcomed me back with open arms and with the avenue to do what I have loved since a child and such blessings.... Not tons of money, but with this amazing grace, unfathomable peace ( that passes all understanding) and the faith (because of the evidence) that HE wants us ALL to live a life as HIS disciple, child, actual family....
Thanks y'all for rocking out at early C-Stone so we could all continue 🙌
So good to see Larry just talking and being his cool, crazy self.
Wow!
I knew Larry was good at music. But he gave just the preach I needed at this moment!
I love how God talks trough people and their music! :D
It does not matter what his life was God used this man in a mighty way! respect the work and praise God for his effort and hearing what God wanted him to sing. Smartin up Christians...What matters is how it affects your hearts!
Many of the most blessed and used by God people in scripture have been seriously flawed vessels ... how wonderful that the master knows best.
Not really, the only thing that matters is what your life is now. Repentance on the part of someone who has sinned and forgiveness from God means that God no longer sees and judges the "was", God is only concerned with the is. With humans it is often the opposite, they remember past failures and sins, will not forgive, and most importantly neglect or refuse to view individuals who messed up the way God sees them.
Gods grace is a marvelous thing, without it we would all have no hope.
I don't know how much of what has been said about Larry is true and how much isn't - and neither do you unless you knew him personally - but I do know that God uses us in spite of our battles with sin. It's call grace my brother and if we ever get the slightest idea that God uses us because of who or what (we think) we are, we need to fall on our faces and repent of our pride!
I'm sorry UA-cam will allow me to only give you 1 thumbs up on that, Bro.

I will never forget the first time I heard this song. Really enjoyed it. Still do.
rest in peace larry. you sre missed your music lives on
thats absolutly 100 percent exactly what happened with rock n roll. Everything our parents warned us about, happened. They were right
He was hilarious...and a great musician,too!
Absolutely spectacular! Great musician who is in heaven right now!thank God we can still hear theses greats songs!
This is too much, still laughing, yes Larry had a way to make a point and his music touched me when I was a young man, thanks Larry see you when we all get to heaven.
Larry's songs helped form my faith, or at least my evangelical boldness.
Oh lord...you need to see some Aron Ra or Matt Dillahunty on UA-cam
It7s been decades since I7vs listened to Larry but I never realized how good he was and how much I7ve missed him
Isa Larry Lover Meself ! I met His Baby sitter Snooky and His drummer Denny about 6 to 7 years in Desert Edge California. They shared some interesting stories. I think He was a Prophet and a Genius ! But that's just my opinion. ✌🙌👆
Heaven will be filled with wonderful music, and it certainly wont be all played on harps!
I for one love his song here.
That was truly great backwards speaking, lol. And what a great voice he had sending up those jazz classics.
He actually could have done better than the Artists themselves ! He was just having fun !!
This guys was phenomenal! 😄
God truly used Larry Norman
one of the greats , period.
I love this so much
I wonder who he's playing with up in heaven?❤️ Can you see it? Better yet can you hear it❤
Rock and roll. Thanks for sharing
Loved it. Thank You!
Honor your parents... First commandment with a promise, that it may go well with you and that you may live long on the earth....
Kees Boer Yours is a Very Interesting Comment !!!
my parents are Dutch.... just celebrated Father's Day and Mum's bday tomorrow - 79.... born first day of WWII ☺
A lot of people in Larry's generation detested their parents' warnings about the bad aspects of youth culture. So now popular culture affirms and celebrates all manner of depravity.
@@mikebrown5644indeed
Praise God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Acquired a 16mm print many years ago of the feature-length film that shares the same the title as this song. Larry was in the U.K. to play at a large outdoor festival and Sir Cliff is also on the stage. It's an interesting bit of cinema set in those "hippie days" of the early 70's.
Love it :)
Interesting, did not know that! Thanks!
I think I was at this show!!
lol...Larry saying what he wants....lol.....love this song
Happy Birthday today Darrell...God Bless you
"Rock & Roll," "Boogie," "boggie-woogie," "Groove," "let's rock," "rock with you," "rock and roll all night," "rock around the clock," etc....have been euphemisms for 'sex' since the 1950's, as is widely understood throughout the secular music industry. They think it's funny that they've fooled so many.
Rock and metal lives for ever🤘🔥
I often use this song as the last song in my set when playing a gig.
That’s awesome and a great idea
This song is truer today then it was when he wrote it
The subtitles are in Dutch. And yes, 'father' is 'vader' in Dutch.
AMEN!!!
Sorry, but some people keep asking me for intros and outtros. Obviously I can't please everyone at the same time :).
It's only Roc&Rolllllllllll😎.....
i always been thinking like this by listening to modern gospel music , its all so bad, but all the best beats and stuff is for ungodly music. it should be opposite
Well, not when you take into account this is satans little season and new heaven and earth still bas not been established
Never knew Larry Norman was so funny
That was a running joke in the movie "Austin Powers In Goldmember."
Wonder if he has the same views today
He died in 2008.
furthermore, "But do you know what you think? Have you thought it for yourself? Are you sure that it's true, or did you hear it from someone else?
Think for yourself, cos God gave your mind to think...
Don't let your friends do the thinking for you..." ~Bryn Haworth
WHAT's silly-- is people sacrificing the pursuit of truth for vanity and fashionable appearances ;)
👍🤠🤛
the way to find out is to record your own voice reciting the forwards and backwards segment reversing them vice versa
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions"
This guy's on dope
Who will be ready for the Beast before the rapture?
Larry put common sense back into the message. Do you hear what he’s saying? Sure you do.
It's not the music it's the person listening to the music , if people can't determine the difference between fiction and nonfiction they need help . Ever heard of the metal group called Stryper from the it's , they are a Christian rock group and have great music .
I f you knew someone that was holding back on some important information, in which it could save the lives of your family, friends, neighbors, and yourself...if that person was smooth coating things to keep you from the truth...what would be your opinion or thoughts & feelings be about such a person ?
This guy inspired The Pixies front man
Wild….
Thought I’d seen it all
Not a bad rendition of Fly Me To The Moon. The brother could sing. And he was truely funny.
@domnal I'm a Believer and i am against all this religious nonsense. Larry didn't preach religion and preached against it so how could he be "the last chance of making religion popular?" Larry taught us that it is o.k...god takes us and accepts us right where we are at...Long live rock n roll.
So funny...oh and then he sings.
Nothing wrong with burning draft cards.
Any music done for the glory of man or Satan is evil. Any music done purely from the heart for the glory of God and His Son Jesus Christ is nice music.
So, I can't enjoy good music and appreciate the talent of a skilled musician if he isn't singing about God?
Maybe he should have listened to John Todd talk about the occult and the music industry.
No, he shouldn't have listened to that nonsense.
Darth Vader = Dark Father. That was the whole point.
1 Corinthians 15:34
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
James 4:7
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
AMEN BROTHER TONY!!!
guy in glasses absolutely puzzled
Ha.
1:17 when he says, "I saw a kid on TV with his father", is it just me, or does whatever language the subtitles are translate father as vader?!?
EzioCauthon Yeah, vader is father in Dutch.
I really hope there aren't any church organs in heaven, I could do without listening to any more Dracula music!
Excuse me?
I love Larry but to say he does look medicated
Wowie Zowie
How can everybody be saying he was great. When he is clearly high on something, and just talking nonsense. What is the purpose of christian music? It is called praise and worship, it is to praise and worship God. Why then are we so worried about us liking the music. Shouldn't we be worried about God liking it. The question should be: "God, what is your music preference"? Not, God I do not care about your preference I like Rock or Hiphop or whatever so you better like it and take it if I do it from my heart. No, He is a holy God let us give Him what He requires from us, not whatever we want.
Prove he was high on something. And his "nonsense" had a clear point. I'm not surprised you missed it.
Lol i didnt appreciate the ABBA diss 😂😂😂

Larry Norman was a gifted songwriter and musician, but I don't think his monologues have aged well. If you've read any of his writing (all his album liner notes with unattributed authorship), you know he was articulate. The air-head/pot-head persona he displayed at his appearances was all an act.
It looks like a rooster
Larry is mocking other Christians here.
Most of this backwards masking is nonsense! Some of it may be intentional. If the lyrics have a line that has nothing to do with the song, maybe it's a masked message. I've had friends play certain songs backwards and point to some imagined messages. I'd just agree so I wouldn't look silly.
Comes across as a bit out of it on this occasion.
Friar Tuck .... his health was very poor at this point
no wonder larry norman's popular as one to profess christianity... there's truth in good objetivity-- and sometimes it also pretends in closured perspectives such as Norman's opinion on backward masking, i dont think he really looked into it openmindedly enough, his personal prejudicial approach is greatly highlighted in flying colours
I agree. The part in stairway to heaven is obvious especially considering Jimmy pages obsession with Crowley
Stupid comment of Rolling Stones. I thought he should be wiser and understanding with fellow musicians. That comment and act of the end of the clip was really sad.
I'm thinking Larry was drunk.
Fraud
Thank GOD Geoff Moore and The Distance redid this song cause this version is just horrible. Love the message but good God Larry Norman's version is beyond listenable
Ya gotta understand that this version was written a long time before Geoff Moore redid it. This was probably s late 60s or early 70s style song, ala “California Dreamin’”.
Too much talking
