People Should Be Careful When Choosing Songs

Professional musicians can create songs that are captivating. These musical tunes can be so appealing that the people enjoying these songs might not be mindful enough about the lyrics.

Words, however, are important. As Norman Vincent Peale said, “Change your thoughts and you change your world.”

Unfortunately, these changes can be negative. This article will give several examples of such negative changes.

Ozzie Osbourne was the lead vocalist of the Black Sabbath heavy metal band. His nickname was “Prince of Darkness.” His total album sales are over 100 million.

One of his songs was titled “Suicide Solution.” A 1985 lawsuit was filed against him by the parents of a 19-year-old boy who committed suicide, allegedly after listening to this song.

As another example, Madonna’s 1986 song, “Papa Don’t Preach” was about teenaged, unmarried pregnancy.

A third example is Kayne West’s profanity laced rants and songs such as, “Famous.”

The above are just three examples of the numerous songs that are conditioning many individuals in a negative manner. This is especially true when these individuals get such songs, “Stuck in their heads all day.”

So then, most people probably would be happier if they more closely monitored their thoughts, and especially the songs they choose. Paul, in Philippians 4:8 wrote, “Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think on these things.”

What are your thoughts about songs and their lyrics?
