    Haha, agreed again re: Some Kind of Zombie. I play it quite a bit for the kids. 😅

    I agree on 4 of the 5, and I just don't remember the All Star United song. I will have to check it out.

    Yeah, Monkey's Paw is fantastic. Still one of my favorite songs.

    Some Kind of Zombie is better than Jesus Freak? 🤨 Those are fighting words, sir! 🤣
    But I 100% agree with Crazy Times!

    I suspect the reason Crazy Times didn't have the kind of success Flood had is people (secular rock stations) realized they also made Love Song for a Savior.

    How about Poor Old Lu, Adam Again, 77's, The Choir...

    La La Land is one of my favorite songs ever, but I kind of feel like it satirizes a subculture that you have to have lived with to fully get the joke. Maybe that sort of thing’s more ubiquitous in the Bible Belt, though.
    This is gonna sound like sacrilege since Jars of Clay is my favorite band and Much Afraid is my favorite album of theirs, but I’m actually not that big on Crazy Times. To me it just came across like “OK, here’s an actual rock song rather than an acoustic one we had to overdub with electric guitars for rock radio” and it sounds nothing like the rest of the album, and it was WAY overexposed in CCM compared to the rest of the album, but too sluggish to really gain a foothold in mainstream rock. “Fade to Grey” should’ve been the big single here, though I can understand the band actually wanting to promote something new rather than a remake of their oldest song.
    I’d have gone with “Butterfly” for Seven Day Jesus - yeah, it’s cheesy, but it had just the right mix of grittiness and quirkiness for 90s rock radio. That incessantly bouncy hook would’ve drawn in a lot of the same people who got hooked on stuff like “Flagpole Sitta”.

    You can't do this and not play them in the background while you talk. 😂
