Is Rock and Roll Really Satan’s Prayer?
Monday, May 21, 2007
When I was a kid, I didn’t really listen that much of songs that deeply. Well I did but not that much like I do nowadays. I was kind of outgoing person and love to walk and roam around new places on foot and play lots of outdoor as well as indoor games. Then in my adolescence, I used to listen to lots of songs, mostly rock and roll, and then came the metals and heavy metals. Well I listen to all kind of songs from sentis, jazz and blues to country songs, rock and roll, metal, heavy metal, and much more. I am not that much into hip-hop though. At that time, I used to listen to a lot of rock and roll and stuffs. Lately, Led Zeppelin has become one of my favs, and my all time Starr is still Bryan Adams.
I have one very close friend from the past 5-6 years. He is now a newborn true Christian. He has lots of believe in Christ, being the mercy god and all. It is not that I don’t respect Christ or any god of any beliefs for that matter, I just found something kind of funny about his remarks on rock and roll songs and metal songs. He once told me, “Do you know why we true Christians don’t listen to rock and roll and metal songs?” I knew there was something about them not listening to the song but I wasn’t certain. So I asked, “Why?” He then goes, “We believe those songs are like prayer for Satan. You can actually hear Satan’s prayer if you reverse the tape or the cassette and play it.” Actually, I had done that while I was a kid. I had turned the tape and then I could hear awkward and different sound while the tape is played backwards. His remarks made me laugh for a while thinking that was too weird and stupid remarks not made by him but made by those who actually first commented on that sort of songs. I just think that it doesn’t matter if it is even sung by the devil himself, as long as your heart is pure and you are close to god. Music is something that is meant to calm you down, feel comfortable, groovy, help express yourself, and feel alive. So there is nothing wrong with either rock and roll or metal or whatever devilish songs. I used to love it, am loving it, and will always love music of any kind as long as I think they make me feel alive. I just have three words for all, Rock on dudes!
