I can't see Lucinda Williams or Neko Case on this thread. Well, since you asked here are two songs by those artists.

We have something like 40 of his music in our collection from his earlier albums under Sun Records to his final albums under Legacy Recordings and they kept releasing a lot of unreleased material after he passed away and we got some of those albums too and I was surprised over how many songs they had left over. I wasn't a big fan of his religious songs (sorry) but I think he had a lot of great songs and many people see him as the greatest Country Music Singer/ Songwriter of all time but he also done some Rock songs. There was one funny song of his I like called 'Chicken In Black' and it took me a lot of years to track that down but I found it.

Why should you be sorry? Religious music is not for everyone. Heck, there's some I don't like. Like Christian rock. ::shudder::

Some Christian Rock bands are pretty bad and their songs all sound the same and are very repetitive but one band I liked who was strangely classified as Christian Rock and I didn't think they were was Plumb and their latest albums are more religious and Inspirational now but their older stuff was more Alternative Rock and Pop Rock.

Makes me think of the episode of South Park where Cartman comes up with the idea of achieving fame and fortune starting a Christian Rock band; and makes the case that all he has to do to right Christian rock is to take love songs and sprinkle Jesus and Christ throughout the song.
Another example, which I think was only a title or super short snippet, but I can't find it on youtube, was "I want to get down on my knees and start pleasing Jesus. I want to feel his salvation all over my face"

I have seen that type of thing mentioned in other TV Shows and I am pretty sure it was Leigh Nash out of Sixpence None the Richer who said they started out as a pop band writing love songs but none of the major record labels would sign them at the time so they changed and made their songs about Jesus and after they released a couple of inspirational albums they were heard by bigger labels who wanted to pick them up and they were able to easily transition back to doing the type of music they set out to perform.

How about a Gregorian chant that was given to a pope by an angel and has being showing up in music, including scores from movies, ever since?

I didn't know about that before and can't say I am familiar with many Gregorian chants either but I have heard of things like that happening and it is bizarre. I like reading about bizarre things though and I have books about the bizarre and unsolved mysteries.

That was a really popular TV show here in the 90s and it had Robert Stack hosting it and Virginia Madsen even co-hosted it with him for a short time and that had a lot of strange and unusual cases on it and I think some of them could have been real but others were a bit too out there and far-fetched for my liking. I have trouble believing the people who say they were kidnapped by aliens and taken up to their spaceships and experimented on and brought back down 'cause if it was true somebody would have known about it and the whole thing about the anal probes just sounds like a dirty joke and why would aliens want to do things like that to our backsides if they are as advanced as they make them out to be? Funny enough, I saw an alien movie a few years ago where an alien that took the appearance of a guy was going to do some tests on a person to help them and the person went to pull down their pants and bend over and said get it and over and done with and the alien guy said "keep those things on. We don't really do that" We have watched a lot of other similar shows to that on Foxtel and most of them are made in your country and we liked William Shatner's 'Weird of What' and I am surprised that didn't go longer.

We don't really do that" We have watched a lot of other similar shows to that on Foxtel and most of them are made in your country and we liked William Shatner's 'Weird of What' and I am surprised that didn't go longer. Robert Stack is probably the most well known face of Unsolved Mysteries. There's something about that program that I always find fascinating to watch; though probably more so when the case gets solved and someone is brought to justice or there's a happy ending, which is far too infrequent. I've only seen the episodes with Dennis Farina as the host; and I think they might have had him dub a few reruns. I wish they would bring that back; I can't imagine it costs a whole lot to make and ostensibly it does a fair amount of good. Did you know Matthew McConaughey's first role was as a victim in a reenactment in an Unsolved Mystery's segment? I'm not sure if it's what you were getting at, but I don't think they ever made up a story, but there were certainly claims by some that were outlandish. At the same time, there are the occasional accounts in real life that are out there. As they say, life is stranger than fiction. Several family members have shared accounts where they believed they saw an unidentified flying object; or at least something along those lines they couldn't explain, but never an outright abduction. The wildest would be my grandmother who said, when she was a kid (back in like the 1930s) she liked to go down to the telegraph office and watch them send messages out; and one time the operator told her it was time for her to go home, and no sooner did they take a step out into the door way, they saw what she could only describe as a saucer, all lit up and hovering just above the trees. It lingered there for a moment before shooting straight up, out of sight; after which point, unnerved, the telegraph operator walked her home. There was another short lived show that was on back in the 90s, called "Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction"; hosted by Jonathan Frakes. They would feature something like 3 or 4 stories, any one of which may be a real account or completely made-up; and they would wait until the end of the episode to reveal which stories were real and which were fiction. That was a pretty good show, that I also wish they kept going. Some of the real stories were pretty freaky; although it was hard from time to time how really real some of them were and how much was based on hearsay on how it happened.

Speaking of Robert Stack, yesterday was his 100th birthday.

I was actually thinking of this one installment of Unsolved Mysteries when I wrote my last post; and as it should happen, I had posted this two Facebook 5 years ago and it came up on my memories today: stargazer1682 . Sorry for taking a while to get back to you with this but I thought you would like to know I read there is a new 'Unsolved Mysteries' show on the way with a brand new host and it is going to be very similar to the original show and they are saying they might follow up on some of the cases on the old show too and we will have to wait and see but the new series is going to be on Netflix and it is being made by the Executive Producer of 'Stranger Things' and I am surprised this is going to be on Netflix and not free to air 'cause the old show was very popular and they would probably get a lot more ratings if they had it on a free to air channel. I agree with what you said about Robert Stack and no, I did not know Matthew McConaughey's first role was in 'Unsolved Mysteries' and I thought he started out in 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 4' but looking back at some of those old shows with reenactments in them I have recognised some of the actors in them from movies and TV shows and it is funny seeing them early in their career like that 'cause at the time they would have never guessed they would have gone on to become as big as they did years later.
What I meant with the ones I didn't believe was not the actual show or the creators but the actual people they were talking to on some of them and I think just like 'Finding Bigfoot' there may have been some people that made things up to get publicity or changed the accounts of what really happened to make them sound more interesting.

Fans of unsolved Mysteries might enjoy this parody.
Well, not that show specifically but similar shows In Search of and Ripley's Believe it Or Not.

Did you watch the show Dean Cain used to host? I remember there was one on Foxtel back in the late 90s or early 00s that was kinda similar to 'Unsolved Mysteries' and Dean Cain was the host of it but I can't remember what it was. It might have been 'Ripley's Believe It or Not' but I can't remember. I have a lot of 'Ripley's believe It Or Not' books and they come out once a year here and we usually get them with the Guinness Book of Records.

He hosted it after L&C it in the 2000s when he was dating Mindy McCready before she killed herself. Still can't believe she is dead. Damn. She died young.
