You sang one of my favourite ever songs tonight, the first half of the song, you took my breath away, I pleaded inside for you not to scream… and you did… but all I have to say is the way you sang the first half of the song… oh my god, it was absolutely beautiful.
I think what Andrew is looking for is for you to show your humble side, Jesus was loving, gentle, caring… do listen to Andrew and show us this, even last night wasn’t humble enough… I know the song has a lot to do with it, we are not asking for a mediocre performance at all… you can still dress like a rock star but sing something soft rock or similar but be sure to sing a song that you can be gentle and humble throughout the performance not just in parts without any screaming at all, think of Jesus sitting under a tree with lots of 5 year olds, how would he speak to them??? A horse with no name would be good for you if you sing it gently and no screaming or sun goes down by David Jordan… be Jesus in your mind… You are a fantastic performer – unbelievable but you now need to become Jesus.
