| I've noticed interesting connection today.. The instrumental part from Temple of the living God is rip-off from the short passage of Lucifer's Friend song Summerdream (Where the Groupies killed the Blues, 1971). More I listen to Neal Morse, more I think he is running out of ideas... what do you think about it? |

Haven't heard the song you refer to, but I see Neal Morse's music like this: Business as usual...but what a mighty business it is! ------------- What would Neil Young do? |

Morse does succeed in doing the same thing, but keeping it interesting. Maybe he will play some form of melodic miracle in the future... ------------- Bassists are deadly

Neal Morse copying material from Lucifer's Friend?
Isn't this a bit contradictory with his beliefs?

If it's true, what a great bit of irony. ------------- a.k.a. H.T. http://riekels.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow - http://riekels.wordpress.com |

| He could've copied it without knowing that someone had done it already. That happens all the time. |

Business...you said it.  I find it offensive that musicians make money off the name of Jesus. Anything labeled "Christian" is a marketing mechanism. Personally, I find it hypocritical. -------------

I actually think that Morse would make more money if he didn't write Christian music. I really appreciate him for having the guts to do that. |

Funny
but is coincidence, much artist compose things that sound similar to other artist. ------------- Psalm 96 1 Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth. |

I don't believe it's a marketing mechanism. Regardless of what you believe, any album is going to have a "message" of sorts. So should we expect all artists to abstain from mentioning anything in the album which might possible signify a belief in something? Even non-religious artists have beliefs, and often emphasize these views in their music. |

I just have noticed a surge in Christian everything these days, especially related to money. I know I have a chip on my shoulder about it. It goes against what I was taught years back. Jesus didn't preach to get wealthy and his message wasn't about exploiting something for personal gain. OK...enough of that. I'll drop it. -------------
