i like them lucid.

last night i dreamed that i went to hear the nashville symphony, something i've never done but really want to do, and they played this song:



they were dancing too. it was awesome.

it reminded me of last Christmas.

last year i bought my brother-in-law a CD. a christian rapper named lecrae. i'd never heard him, and didn't listen before i bought it. i don't know anything about the christian music scene anymore. i had just heard from a reliable source that he's one of the few christian hip hop artists that is actually good. (not that i have anything against 45 year old white guys being the face of christian hip hop...no wait, i do have a problem with that.) but my brother-in-law is a youth minister, so i figured...even if he hates it personally, he could probably get some use out of it at church. setting that youthy vibe at youth group, you know.

ANYWAY.

he opened it, and we listened to it later.

i'm not a good judge of that kind of music. i like it, i just can't evaluate it well.

BUT.

i remember thinking that if he'd replace all the synth music with an actual string section...it would be so good. i could hear it in my mind. man. a rapper with a string section! someone needs to do this.

and i feel that my dream only confirms that.

can you hear it?
