I found this video and thought it was interesting. I'm often told that Worship music today has only 4 chords that you can play hundreds of songs (and that my be true since we did MIGHTY TO SAVE and THE STAND linked together today in worship). Maybe it's just a result of the musical forms that our ears are used to these days. Back in the days of Mozart, the resolution to different chords was seen as scandalous ( that people would even know what suspensions and resolutions is amazing to me).
Anyway, look at this video and laugh. Then let's discuss the state of music--secular and sacred.
