Description
FOR VOTERS
argument = how christian the songs are
sources = how good the songs sound
grammar = descriptions of songs
conduct = forfeit/posting more or less songs than 3 per round/ using only spotify links or another paid service
Round 1
This isn't an anti-christian song, it is an anti-fake christian song. This song is for anyone who is a hypocrite or misses the point of christianity and thinks they are a good person because they live a certain lifestyle while they lack the core virtues.
It's nice to see Merkules thinking more about God on his latest album, I hope he gets saved.
Play all 3 at high volume. It makes a difference.
The Emptiness Machine
Linkin Park
Listen to it as sung from Christian converts to Satan, secular society and/or their prior religion, deity and ex-fellow believers if ex Muslim.
The song is actually about Scientology but all Linkin park except the ex scientologist new singer are Christians afaik so this is a fair take on the lyrics.

Strong
Anne Wilson
Just listen. Literally.

Continuing from previous song's theme.
Just Be Held
Casting Crowns
I cried listening to this the first time I heard it and spammed it on replay.
Round 2
Elvis was a Pentecostal Christian who made multiple gospel albums.
This is a song about hitting absolute rock bottom and having the epiphany that only God can help you. This song is how you feel when you are on your death bed and reflecting on your life realizing that you were a sinner the whole time and your life is in God's hands.
This is what being a true vessel for the holy spirit feels like.
Painkiller
Three Days Grace
It is abstract sort of. Imagine it is Father himself singing it to you. There is a reason I say Father. The vibe and fact Jesus wouldmt sing it this way nor would HS most likely.

The Bad Ones
Mass of Man, KC Makes Music & Vin Jay
It is interesting that Vin Jay himself youd never expect on such a soft vibed, swearless masterpiece. Sign of redemption in itself.
It is a good song describing a combination of nihilistic anguish without the Lord and the vibe as he enters our lives and saves us all at once.

Preliator
Globus
Yes it isnt English, watch the YT as it has translations show live. It is a fantastic example of what may have been a war chant vibe for the original templars when fighting the Muslims during the Crusades but is also a vibe of what we should have daily. The context of Illuminatus is our light, not the modern Illuminati that are a result of freemason 'enlightenment'.
I listen to this when faced with a difficult opponent or obstacle in life that I need motivation for. Try it loud in a gym session. Hits different.
Round 3
best christian rap song ever made
this is the kind of christian that does a drive by and shoots bibles at you
Greatest Christian Rap Ever? You are going to regret not using these, pal.
No Complaints
K-Rino
Bro... You forgot Rino? As a Christian Rapper? My guy... I left you 3 full Rounds to priority pick him.
This song speaks for itself. Just listen.

Journey
Lecrae
Idk what we are gonna do... Pro gave us the greatest Christian rap ever. 🤷♂️
~~~~
Ave Maria - Peitas version (there is more than 1 version and multiple covers)
Andrea Bocelli (he is a guy btw) and Aida Garifullina
Only 2 points rest on the song 4 rest on context and 1 on not messing up badly
So sacrificing great songs with vaguer context for good songs with blatant context is optimal.
😂 wow I actually didnt think this through. In-your-face Christian would have been optimal over anything else because I could flesh out description and keep them decent sounding enough
If he had made being Christian just a qualifier I feel I would win.
Ty for vote.
True
It is likely you will vote against me but life is life. I am okay as also there is no choice.
I also wonder if you will give all 7 to the winner by default or follow the description.
"In 3 days if 0 votes are here, what is the strategy to get votes?"
I usually make short debates(5000 characters, 2 rounds) to make it much easier to vote. But here, you have 18 songs which together last over 40 minutes. Its a bit much for many voters.
Are you okay with me voting on this?
In 3 days if 0 votes are here, what is the strategy to get votes?
🙏✝️✡️
Might be able to drop a vote...
I'll work on this.
@adaptable
I would probably burst into flames if I actually listened to all those songs.
The Linkin Park is not fan played drums, it is their actual drummer. My mistake.
Music contest, pls vote
Expected "Jesus take the wheel"
