The difference is “Hope can sing”

I must say that usually listening to a group’s kids sing is quite painful. We have a group here in Canada called “Double Portion” and they have 8 or 9 kids!!! I find it VERY painful to listen to their kids and often have a break when they appear on stage.

I am constantly amused by the people who come on here and tell people to mind their own business. Celebrities, and Christian celebrities more so, seem to struggle with their status in society. They ask people to buy their CD’s, purchase seats to watch them sing, and then wish to return to obscurity and live in a vacuum, and it just doesn’t work like that. I’m not defending any one comment, but I am saying to people like Pooh, that when you enter the public stage, you must be ready for what that entails, and a loss of privacy is certainly one of the downsides. If parents don’t want the public criticizing their child’s singing, then don’t put them on a stage. And it is a cheap shot to tell people that they should forfeit their ability to observe and criticize because they are a Christian. It was Galileo that said, “I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.”

kingsmanfan2008… Never a hater… and yeah sure there is some $$ & politics in it it is a biz… but come up with a million $$ have a sucky song and see what it gets ya!!

What I think is funny is there is a BIG GROUP that back in the 80’s & early 90’s everything they did turned to gold…. and it was COOL.. but now that they are struggling and can’t get a song to go #1 it is because they won’t play politics… that is the BIGGEST COP OUT I have EVER heard.

Almost as BS as ppl that say they are not going to come back or have never been on here but came on because THEIR KID CALLED and told them!! lollollol

BS…BS…. BS calling it on ya… you will ALL BE BACK cause you can’t help but watch the only site where ppl can come and say what they want with very little filters!!!

QUICK name another one??? HURRY!!!

TGIF!!

The post to which I referred didn’t say the comments about Hope were plain old stupid; she referred to posters here collectively as plain old stupid and ridiculously uneducated. It’s really not necessary to stoop to someone else’s level just to get your point across.

“Plain old stupid”

Attacking a child hmmm….what would you call it. It just is what it is!!!

It always bothers me when the ‘big names’ drop in on these conversations to defend (or offend) someone else. They often use less than flattering attacks on the posters while claiming to stick up for what’s right. I don’t agree with attacking a child, but when someone defends the child by calling a poster things like “ridiculously uneducated” and “plain old stupid”, where’s the glory in that?

Wacky,

It was big of you to come back and apologize. Thanks. I actually appreciated your original comments for one reason. It brought out some of the BIG guns!!! How cool to see Katy, Libby, Chris, Mike and Joseph taking part in this forum.

And by the way, I have seen Hope recently and she is THAT good!!!!
…And I to would listen to Mike sing the phonebook.

Godspeed.

# 63 . . . Once again someone making a comment about something he knows nothing about. I know Katy personally, and with three-year old twins at home, reading this blog is way, way down on her priority list. The thing is, the SG community is like a family. If someone is criticized unfairly, word gets around and they circle the wagons. Katy is a very good friend of all the Crabbs, so when she was told about the attack on Hope and Mike and Kelly, she jumped to their defense. I don’t know personally whether or not Libbi and Joseph read this blog themselves, but as busy as they are I really doubt it.

Please can we not make statments about other people that you can’t substantiate?

Good for you Pooh. Get ‘em!

Well, I just want you to know that I really don’t ever visit this site and didn’t want to now, but here I am. I heard from someone that there were some horrible things being said about members of my family and was curioius. Here is my viewpoint. If you are a true Christian, you WILL NOT visit this site on a regular basis. Here is why I make that comment. I have never in my life heard of such ridiculous comments about Mike’s voice and Hope’s “screamin” and Kelly’s lack of stage presence. These are comments that “true Christians” would not make about another brother or sister. Would they? I recently went to hear M&K and heard Kelly preach a sermon with such an annointing that I sat and cried. I sat and listened to Hope sing her little heart out and listened as she harmonized with such natural capability that I just sat in awe. Remember folks, she is 9 years old. Just think of what she will sound like when she is 16 years old. Look out. As for Mike, holy cow people, give it a rest. Mike is one of the best southern gospel singers in the industry. So what if he has an off night every now and then. We all know that he can sing his booty off. Leave him alone. I say this of course with all the love that one could muster. And leave Kathy alone. She has been through enough. Why even mention about the plastic surgeries if it is none of your business. Please give me a flippin break.

#64 Wade,
Don’t be hatin! I never said Mike sucked. All I am implying is that he has all of his current stuff too high and it takes his voice by the end of the night. When is the last time you seen them? Do you know what you’re talking about. As referenced previously, I stated that mike is incredible on CD, but those 10 songs are split over several days in the studio.
As for the number one songs? C’mon man, if you spend your time on here, you know that this all comes down to money. Hmmm. back to my point on a previous post!! They probably are paying someone a monthly fee to push all of these songs #1!! They had a great song about awaking the master… True #1 song, man! No doubt about it. The other stuff?? One song, I believe titled It’s alright sounded like a black choir and just not SG. I can’t see people in the south or the hills of WV sittin on the porch singin along. DO you?
I have friends in the biz, and trust me, #1 songs are not always because of the music or lyrics. Mike would probably even agree if you had a chance to ask him.
