It was our lifegroup outing yesterday and despite a couple of ppl's reluctance we eventually managed to convince everyone to go karaoke (which would be my 2nd time in like 2 months or something).
You know, you can learn a lesson or two from everything you do. I learnt yesterday just how careful i have to be with the music I listen to and the type of stuff I sing. It's sad how we can become so desenstised to what we hear on the radio. I rarely listen to rnb and hip hop stuff except for when I'm in the car and the radio is on but I have to admit like..a lot of the times when it comes to this kinda stuff I just sing along without realising what I'm actually singing. In fact a lot of the times I can't even understand what they're singing and although being naive can be good it can also be equally bad.
So many times yesterday at karaoke we would be singing a song and then half way through we'd stop and realise.."wait a minute...this is sin..." It's true though..I think a lot of the time we sing along to a song because it's catchy without actually realising what we're singing. For example Usher: Love in this club...I've heard it on the radio many times before but yesterday would have probably been the first time I realised just how bad the lyrics were. That song is like the definition of sin. At least we sang Dare you to move (which was like the only Switchfoot song they had) which was nice and clean...a good change really.
