I’ve got reasons for asking this in the past tense, but: what was the greatest CCM song ever recorded?
My intuition is In the Light, followed by Worlds Apart, but there’s a lot of Keith Green (if he counts) and also Jennifer Knapp that’s getting lost in here, and in general the weirder a CCM song was willing to be, the better
Normally I’d say this was nostalgia bias (I finished high school in ‘00) but I feel like maybe around 2001 CCM abruptly quit getting weird and it was a real problem
Might I remind you that “I Can Only Imagine,” which feels like the last mega-crossover hit (tell me if I am wrong), was released October 12, 2001
