Even The Devil Believes

-

This week I want to leave you with something to help you think. If you watched the video about the Stryper Album God Damn Evil  then you know that I had some issues with it's form. I also expressed hope that Even The Devil Believes would not have the same issues.

 I have completed my research on this and will be posting both charts below for you to make your own decisions about. 

These charts break down each song by the lyrics listed in the included booklet as well as what you actually hear when you Listen to the lyrics. The added lyrics are then the Lyrics that you here that are not in the book and the closing section is the final section in the song.

God Damn Evil

 
Even The Devil Believes

I - Intro
V - Verses
C - Choruses
B - Bridge
E - Ending
PC - Pre-Chorus
LC - Layered Chorus
RL - Repeated Line

There was also some issues about errors in the lyrics in the booklet disused in the video. There are some errors still in the booklet included with Even The Devil Believes. Specifically, the song Let Him In.

The printed words for the Chorus:
Let Him Inside
Inside of you

It is sung
Let Him In-
Side of you

I do want to close with the statement that a better album does not necessarily have better music.

More Than Words - Extreme | Lyric Analysis

-

Last week I released a video on the song Shy Away and I talked about the idea that you can use something other than words to say I love you. To me this brings to mind the song More than Words by Extreme. So let’s take a look at that. Verse 1 Saying "I love you" Is not the words I want to hear from you It's not that I want you Not to say, but if you only knew How easy it would be to show me how you feel More than words is all you have to do to make it real Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me 'Cause I'd already know This verse does feel a little disconnected but overall the point is made. The singer desires to feel the love and saying it is fine but actions speak a little louder than words. The point here is that it is easy to show that love and as the love is shown you don’t have to say I love you as often. The Chorus has two parts. What would you do if my heart was torn in two? More than words to show you feel That your love for...

Why Think

I personally believe you should think about anything before you do it. If you find yourself doing it simply because someone told you to then that is not good enough. I also believe that you shouldn’t ask anyone to do anything without explaining why to them. You are free to do what you want but let’s look at some reason that singing should not be simply repeating other things. First, let’s define singing. Dictionary.com gives us the definition as a verb of to utter words or sounds in succession with musical modulations of the voice; vocalize melodically. I personally like the definition given in The Music Man where singing is simply defined as sustained talking. Are you held responsible for the words you say? Have you ever said something and then regretted it? If singing is simply talking then the same concepts apply. Words have meaning and consequences. And it is not uncommon to hear someone tell someone else to think before you speak, so why is singing any different? ...
