While I grew up on Petra and still listen to them from time to time for nostalgia, I wonder why people keep suggesting the wussiest songs by this band for a UA-cam channel that has a niche in hard metal… especially when there were harder songs on this album in particular… Bring on that song from Jekyll and Hyde where Petra redeemed themselves…
I grew up listening to Petra. I didn't know that there was such thing as Christian rock until I was 10, and heard the Sanctified Oldies by Ron Perry. And about a year or two later, I heard of Newsboys, dc Talk, Big Tent Revival, Petra, Geoff Moore and the Distance. And I've heard of Third Day, Carman, Delirious, and I was hooked. Petra is my favorite Christian rock band. I've never had the privilege of seeing them in concert, but I do have several of their albums on CD. My two favorite albums of theirs are "Unseen Power" and their "No Doubt" album. Couple of special requests: 1. "Ready, Willing, And Able", from Petra: Unseen Power. 2. "Right Place", which is a heavy metal song from Petra: No Doubt. Both albums are totally awesome. They're, in fact, bangers. As a bonus, here's another request: "Our Turn Now", by Carman featuring Petra from Carman's album Addicted To Jesus.
well, I am Ready Willing and Able to do your request!! So let's start there with this song, hold tight Happy Birthday not sure I will get to it before your birthday, but I will try! Hope you are well, and check back it might be a little bit before I can get to it, but I will get to it!
Catchy, radio-friendly jam...I feel like this could have been on the soundtrack of any 80's John Hughes Brat Pack movie.....I just want to spit out dialogue such as: "Oh sexy giiiirrrlllllfriend!" and "Grandparents forgetting a birthday??? They live for that shit!" and "Do you always carry that much shit in your bag?" and "Not even close, BUD!" AND.......
I am seeing PETRA for the 10th time live next month. My first ever encounter was someone playing the cassette of "not of this world" during a mission trip. The song was "not by sight". I have been a fan ever since Favorite song is "sight unseen". Bob Hartman's guitar intro on that song melts brains.
Shane... I can't stop watching your channel. It's rock solid. I'm a musician and I have done session work and live work in Nashville. I also worked a lot with Tim Gaines from Stryper. I appreciate all your videos especially the Christian metal ones. God bless you
Petra...was raised on them and am a huge fan! Love seeing you do a reaction to them. Missed the first week of school back in 92 to go to Petra concert, my first concert, seen them multiple times and met them a few as well. There are currently two versions of Petra touring at the moment "Classic Petra" which comprises their old lead singer (Greg Volz) up until 85, and then Petra with John Schlitt who has fronted them from 85 till today. There are some who feel the Greg Volz days were better, but their whole catalogue of music comprises a plethora of hits.
Smiley Rock. One of the first hard rock bands I got given (tapes) by the churchies I was hanging with. Many lunar cycles ago. Like over 30 years... I think. Even earlier... I went to heavier later, Sacrament, Mortification, and of course Vengeance, Tourniquet, Believer. Have you done any Mortification? Something from Scrolls of the Megilloth. (Eternal Lamentations maybe... Or Nocturnal... Extremely influential band.) Paramaecium are good too. Much heavier than Petra. But this is a Petra reaction so, This Means War by Petra is a good one, and an older one, It is Finished by the other singer.
This video is part of a movie they did for the album. The driver has someone close to him (can't remember who exactly) who is dying and he's trying to help get extra money for his family.

One more thing: I'm a 38 year old man, but not for long. On June 24th of this year, in just a couple of weeks, I turn 39. It will be my 39th birthday.

John Schlitt was the original co-lead singer for Head East until 1980.
Shane, you need to get back into Holy Soldier! Stranger and When the Reign Comes Down are must listens.
Lets not forget so many, many other great bands and songs: Lordian Guard, Chrystavox, Tourniquet, ...
Check out the video of Dan Vasc/Petra singing Beyond Belief. Also check out the Carmen/Petra video Our Turn Now.

I have All their CDs saw them in 1982, they just celebrated their 50th anniversary 2924 Jesus is Lord
Jekyll & Hyde is a good album. You can't go wrong with any tune from that one.
Especially the tune Jekyll & Hyde
The best!!

thank you my friend, that really does mean a lot to me!
They toured with STRYPER ONE TIME
Hey great reaction man. Petra was one of my most formative bands growing up.

My favorite Christian band. They don’t get enough credit for the incredibly huge catalog of songs the band compiled over the years.
This video is part of a movie they did for the album. The driver has someone close to him (can't remember who exactly) who is dying and he's trying to help get extra money for his family.
His older brother has cancer
@@j.d.maffit129 That sounds right.
We need Deliverance!
Jesus loves you
You need to react to the band TITANIC featuring Robert Sweet from STRYPER on drums! They have multiple albums!
