Sorry Ridge.. this is one of those times when I gotta disagree with you. To me (and before anyone says anything, I acknowledge that other people have other likes and dislikes) but to me, hip-hop blows chunks. It's barely better than rap, which is the bottom of the evolutionary musical ladder. I like music, not an overwhelming drumbeat and someone talking in time to it. Don't get me wrong, I love R&R, R&B, pop, jazz, classical, gospel, even new age... I'm open to just about anything.. But I just can't get into hip hop and rap.... and in all cases, this is a thread about Roy Orbison and the gift that he had. He was one of those singers that come only once in a generation. Much like Sinatra in his time.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God) 
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
