Rend Collective's newest album was my latest purchase on iTunes this winter. It's probably my first purchase in a year and a half actually. It's a complicated story, but needless to say, my Windows had a corruption that, of all things, prevented me from signing into the iTunes store and purchasing any new music. Weird, but I was thankful to get it fixed recently when my laptop required professional attention because the issue began affecting it's WiFi receptivity. You could accurately say, I was counting my blessings when it was fixed and I discovered my iTunes was working properly. That's kind of a lame lead-in, but this week's song is in fact "Counting Every Blessing" by Rend Collective. So far it's my favorite track off their excellent album. Enjoy:
Infectious is the word that came to mind when thinking about this band and this week's song. Now, infectious is a word that has quite a range of meaning.
It can be a bad thing, as in, "that is an infectious disease you've contracted and we're going to have to isolate you from all human contact for the next 48-72 hours."
It can also be a good thing, as in, "they have such an infectious spirit about them, you can't help but walk away with a positive outlook on life."
The following band would fall into the latter category. They are infectious in all the good ways. They are the genuine article.
Disclaimer: I know people who know them well. And my people tell me that these guys are the real deal when it comes to being a worship band who have a significant degree of fame.
I was a little surprised to discover I hadn't featured them on my blog before, but here is their newest single. Try to watch it and not be even a little happier or optimistic about your day.
