We played my new song at church last night for the first time. It went really well. We started learning it in practice yesterday afternoon and everybody but me seemed to think it would be a good idea to go ahead and play it in the service. Now I’m glad we did.

The song has so much more energy when it’s played live than it does in the demo. I’ve found it hard to get a drum machine very excited about playing a song. In the demo it has more of a smoothed-out R&B vibe. But live it reminded me more of the feel and energy of ‘Remedy’ by The Black Crowes, which I totally dig.

After we played it we had quite a few people ask if there is a recording of the song that they could get. There is. I’ve posted bits and pieces of the demo before but here’s the whole thing. I hope to start working on a legitimate recording of this very soon.

I Want to Know Christ (demo)

These lyrics are all taken from Philippians 3.
