bob.dino 0 #3 February 17, 2015 It's really disturbing listening to an 8-year-old cover that song. Do her parents not know what the lyrics mean? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muff528 3 #4 February 17, 2015 I'm pretty sure that a lot of folks don't understand that it's not a "gospel" song, even though it may sound like one. I was surprised by the number of church groups, youth singers, etc. covering it as a gospel/inspirational-type song. There are plenty of other verses to choose from that may be open to interpretation. Yeah, those lyrics are kind of weird coming from an young child. But my post was only to point out the girl's talent. I think this girl does sing mostly religious songs, so I doubt her parents (and a lot of other folks) are reading much beyond the biblical references in the song.

bob.dino 0 #5 February 17, 2015 I was in the band that did our high-school graduation, and teacher in charge vetoed that song in under 1 second. Despite being a religion teacher, she knew exactly what it was about. Yeah, I couldn't get past the fact that an 8yo was singing songs about sex and domination and bondage. Oh well. She sings alright though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
