Well it finally happened…
…Not a sudden conversion. Not the Stockholm Syndrome. No. I find myself in church, as a adult, singing Kum By Yah whilst various members of the audience bang tambourines. Truly horrible.
For some reason yesterday the normal service (CofE slow hymn singing and recitations) became all happy-clappy. This had better not continue. It’s bad enough attending church when it’s merely boring; when it makes you cringe it is just too much.
Have just stumbled upon this (via Platitudes of course – hurrah for Peter!). I am in a similar (though much more complicated, if you can believe it!) situation, and just thought I would add my hatred of happy-clappy songs, and indeed Kumbyah in particular, to yours.
Good for you setting up this blog. Rest assured you are by no means alone…
