Hillsong is AWESOME =)

That's all our church has been playing recently. =D

We met them at a Hotel (we were staying in the same one) when they came to MI! WHOOT!
hannahlove
Woooo I just bought "Look to You" and "United We Stand" so that makes 3 in my collection cuz I bought "More than Life" when I was Korea
they ALL come with DVDs so the price is worth it.
Behind the stage and just random songs they performed for their album

they are so awesome because they are so so so Spirit filled and you can tell by their energy that they LOVE God
I can't stop watching it because it encourages me a lot.
We're trying to 'revive' our worship band so its so awesome just watching them.
they don't consider themselves as a band but just as God loving people
so much respect =)
xsmitten
2 of my friends went to their concert in vancouver a while ago. they said that it was awesome =)
i've listened to a few of their songs. they're pretty good~

OMG
are you serious?!
ahhhh i am jealous
im hoping to go to Australia in 2008 or 2009 just to visit and check out the church.


so guys, remember that there is a difference between hillsong and hillsong united (which used to be called united live)

i think people mix them up easily.
hillsong united didn't do mighty to save... ahah all my friends get confused about it.

yep, they are 'different' but not really smile.gif

Hillsong (as is - in terms of albums) is the one with Darlene Zschech as the lead singer.

Hillsong United is the one that's catered for the youth and led by Joel and Marty.

Both Marty and Joel are part of the Hillsong team that is led by Darlene - collectively called Hillsong Team (so they also have songs in the Hillsong albums whereas Darlene usually don't have a singing part in Hillsong United albums).

Hillsong Live are those albums that were recorded live (with usually more than 20,000 people in an auditorium - which I always participate in!)

Hillsong United All of the Above is the album released this year which debuted in #6 in the US Billboard Charts!

Hillsong is releasing a new album called Saviour King (a Live album recording held last year in July 2006) in 2 weeks (in time for the Hillsong Conference).

Here's a link for all the Hillsong United albums:

wasn't it though? i never got over how AMAZING that concert was until like a week or two later tongue.gif
RiverB
Oh you guys, I so wanted to go to the concert. I was on a month long trip and had returned to Canada a few days before the concert. But for some reason I had it in my head that the concert was on June 20th so I didn't go sad.gif I was asking a friend of mine if he wanted to go and he said that another friend of his already went on the 2nd and then it hit me! But Hillsongs are awesome and the United team is amazing. There's this one song from the United We Stand album that always gets me...the title eludes me right now but the song goes "Did you rise the sun for me, paint a million stars that I might know Your majesty. Is Your voice upon the wind, is everything I know marked with my Maker's finger prints..."
I'm glad that I can read about it somewhat here smile.gif
