God's of War is one of THE best DL songs period. Would be in my top 5 easily along with Run Riot, Photograph, Hysteria and prob Love Bites. 

Yes! 

Wait so you are basing that top 20 off of your favorites, and we do ours, or that's what you think is the top 20 by popularity? 

So from what I understand this is going on Spotify this month?

oh in that case I've been posting pre choruses lol

That's okay

I always thought a pre chorus was the section between the verse and the chorus, hence the name. Whereas a bridge was the middle section in a song connecting the beginning and the end, hence the name. 

That's the part I've been noticing in the songs you're posting. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 🎆🥳🎇

Y'all are so yesterday. So 2019. I've been in 2020 for ages now (about 34mins) and it's sublime. It's so different to 2019. Spoiler alert, but Jesus returns to Earth right on midnight. You'll never believe what he's wearing (or should I say what he's not). 

But anyway, folk, happy new year to y'all... when you finally get here.

Hope everyone has a better night than a lot of Australia did. Majority of celebrations cancelled due to bushfires, so a very quiet night for myself and many, I'm sure. Hope y'all have a more interesting and enjoyable evening. See you in 2020.

  

Heard that stuff on the radio. You disappointed? I'm working on a calendar - working much better since I'm not 8 anymore where every month started on a Sunday and had 31 days except for February which always had 28 😂

Catchy one in here

night Ranger - Four in the Morning 

Refreshed my memory of this one. It is good! 

 Both of those are good ones! 

I LOVE these ones!!!!!!! 

What are some bridges you wish came a thousand times in a song? I love bridges, but of course they only sadly come once or maybe twice. Mine are This One by Whitecross, True Confessions by Tonio K., No Way I'm Going Down by Whitecross, The Lion's Den by Guardian, & the words to Petra's bridge in Fools Gold, are amazing. 

Now, mine all happen to be Christian Rock but obviously they don't have to be. I love bridges---

I love how much you post to this thread. 

I may have heard those mark ones before not sure.

Happy New Year to you !

Usually I spend the 1st watching college football and taking down Christmas decorations

Hahaha great way! 

We actually go forward, not fall back. 

A new decade guys! Any resolutions? What are your traditions? For some of you it'll be your fourth. Or your fifth- or sixth, (my mom didn't appreciate me letting her know that) but of course that doesn't necessarily mean your 60+ 

Every year my family watches Groundhog Day on December 31st, and then it goes into January 1st. My resolutions, well, I haven't thought of those yet, if I even get to those haha! 

And, according to the guy on the radio 1. Make sure it's maintainable 2. Don't overwhelm yourself 3. It doesn't have to start on January 1st.

Never carried mine out whatever they've been ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Good Luck, and happy new year & decade. 

Yeah… Bob Hartman shouldn't leave Petra again, because his songwriting IS AMAZING. As someone said, Petra's songs are a mini sermon in each one, with a great rocking song. Only Bob can write those lyrics. Greg Volz is alright, but John's voice is Petra to me. And despite being 70, his voice never changes ! Greg isn't as lucky. 

For awhile I wasn't going to listen to Petra's early stuff because John didn't sing, and I don't think I've listened to Unusual Heat yet because it wasn't Lou. . . Now it's just cause I haven't bothered to. Some stuff I wouldn't listen to even if it just had one original member missing. That route is a mistake.

AC/DC's Highway to hell / Back in black and basically RATT from Out of the Cellar to Detonator (spanning 5 albums)

Oh is that what back to back means? I get it now... well then, pretty much all of Petra’s & Foreigner’s albums are great!

There's a very good reason why this track was and still is a genre crossing mainstream hit. I defy any of you to listen to this and not sing along.  One of the best albums ever BTW.

 

 

Yes! I love this song !! 

Yes- I remember hearing Darn Floor, Big Bite off of a compilation CD my sister got me. I thought then that I would hate Daniel Amos. I hated the song. Eventually though, it grew on me, and then I tried out some more Daniel Amos. Now I love them! Or the other way around? I tried out X-Sinner, thinking I'd like them, but then I heard them. They're 'Christian ACDC' but I'd rather listen to ACDC I think. They'll rip your ears off with his bleeding scratchy voice. It's terrible. I was disappointed. 

Not 100% sure what 'back to back' means but

Petra- Back to the Street/This Means War!/On Fire! 

Foreigner- Inside Information/Mr. Moonlight 

Billy Idol- Billy Idol/Rebel Yell

Iron Maiden- Iron Maiden/Killers/Somewhere In Time

That is probably musically and melody-wise my favourite Whitecross song... just can't cop those lyrics.  

It's just too bad, ain't it

Just gave it a listen. Schlitt still sounds pretty darn good and there are a handful of okay classic-rock-style songs, but this ain't a patch on his Petra days. But hey, props to him for still being in the rock 'n' roll game.

Exactly-
