I kind of want to go to this church

Why dancing in church is very important

I'm.............speechless! I especially like the guy on synthesizer. For the life of me I cant picture my priest doing that with the lectern ladies at my church. BAHAHAHA

I can honestly say I've never seen anything quite like that. Was the older lady their mom?

Posted by: Amy Girl at January 8, 2009 10:03 AM

That was seriously disturbing. Oh. my.

I'd seen the Jesus ska band on The Soup's blog over the weekend.

Dear oh dear.

I would be hiding under the pew, cringing.

What happens to the kids from the Barney show when they grow up?

Posted by: Karen Sugarpants at January 8, 2009 10:36 AM

I'm pretty sure some of those dance moves qualify as sins. Or at least crimes against nature.

Posted by: Sean at January 8, 2009 10:43 AM

The drummer is out of control!
Hip Hop Service 10am
Traditional 11am

I love the guys Britney Spears micrphone, you know so he can be hands free for all those intense moves!

Posted by: danelle at January 8, 2009 10:44 AM

if he'd grabbed his crotch on that last move it would have set the whole thing off perfectly.

Posted by: christine Gill at January 8, 2009 11:01 AM

OMG. At about 1:55 into it, he starts bustin' all sorts of moves. Wow. Very entertaining, Y.

Posted by: Andrea at January 8, 2009 11:11 AM

Oh my goodness, that guy is going to give me nightmares!

Posted by: Beverly at January 8, 2009 11:20 AM

You know, I was wondering why the guy got the Janet Jackson-style headset while the ladies had handheld microphones. Around the 1:55 mark, I understood: were the ladies busting out the moonwalk? I THINK NOT!

Oh my, that was awesome. I would totally go to that church too, but I'm afraid I'd get kicked out for giggling inappropriately.

Posted by: cindy w at January 8, 2009 11:30 AM

Holy SHIT!

Posted by: Mic at January 8, 2009 1:00 PM

OMG- that is freakin' hilarious! And I'm laughing just as much at the comments that have been made so far!!!! Too funny!

Posted by: JoAnn at January 8, 2009 1:05 PM

I wish I had their email addresses. I have so many questions for them.

Like, how long did it take to choreograph? And where did they learn the moves? From SECULAR MUSIC VIDEOS? Because I'm pretty sure it's a sin to watch those. At least that's what my dad always told me.

Posted by: Y at January 8, 2009 1:13 PM

Actually, they kinda remind me of a slightly updated Lawrence Welk act. I was shocked to see the year was 2007, since that act looks waaay older, and cheesier, than I would have thought possible. WOW.

Posted by: Amy at January 8, 2009 2:17 PM

That's just wrong.

Posted by: Vickie at January 8, 2009 2:41 PM

Why do I find that somewhat disturbing?

Posted by: Kristy at January 8, 2009 3:29 PM

Tell me he's straight. I dare you!

Oh this made me so happy. I love the way he looks over at each of the ladies periodically. It's golden.

Posted by: JachiCue at January 8, 2009 3:58 PM

Dude looks like Will Farrel & Dracula had a baby. TY Andrea for pointing out the awesome dancing at 1:55. I had paused it at 1:45 cuz it just got too creepy! I almost missed it. LOL

Posted by: Text Imps at January 8, 2009 6:01 PM

OK, I changed my mind. There is no God.

Posted by: norm at January 8, 2009 6:21 PM

Wow. Wow. That was almost kinda cool.

Posted by: Becki at January 8, 2009 9:17 PM

Wow! It was like Lawrence Welk met up with Billy Graham and Michael Jackson. You don't see that in church everyday. I was impressed that the older woman moved just as well as the younger. It's gotta be a family act. The son must have been begging to do this since the 80's!

Posted by: Angie at January 8, 2009 9:36 PM

Actually, I thought they were pretty awesome. Their moves were a lot more synchronized than some famous acts I've seen. Even their harmony was good. If they had a more catchy tune to sing I think they'd really go over big. It's just funny to see those moves done to that music. However, more power to them! They looked like they enjoyed it and they're getting their message out.

Posted by: Mary at January 8, 2009 11:28 PM

I would have to be on Maaaajor drugs to check this chruch out HAHAHA or any for that matter :)

Posted by: MobPrincess at January 9, 2009 12:30 AM

Do you think those two ladies went "same style dress" shopping together to make sure they completely matched? And I don't care what anyone says, that dude got those dance moves at toga parties in college after just hittin' the beer bong!

Posted by: Peggy at January 9, 2009 4:01 AM

What exactly did they say in the chorus? "The ______ is the Christ in me". Might be the baby pulling on my headphones or the fact I was trying to keep him from chewing on the cord, but I missed what they were saying. For real here people! Anyone wanna reply so I know? Please?

It certainly wasn't horrible, just different. I was raised as an Episcopalian so we really lacked on the instrument and dancing part. Still not my "type" of church, but you can say that you wouldn't fall asleep during the service :)

Posted by: burnurcomputer at January 9, 2009 5:48 AM

I can't believe I just sat through a minute of the video LOL. Sad, so sad.

Posted by: justme at January 9, 2009 6:07 AM

I *think* it was "The Redeemer is the Christ in me" - but I'm not really sure because I was laughing too hard :)

Posted by: Joy at January 9, 2009 8:01 AM

it was "the renewed mind is the key to the Christ in me" wasn't it?
that's what i been singing all day anyway!

yeah!!

Posted by: christine Gill at January 9, 2009 8:23 AM

I cannot thank you enough for posting this. I haven't laughed that hard in weeks--and I really needed the laugh.

Posted by: Lar at January 9, 2009 10:48 AM

Oh wow.

Posted by: Melody at January 9, 2009 2:15 PM

Oh My God...LOL I would go to that church just for a good laugh. OY hahaha It was pretty funny

Posted by: Karen Reilly at January 9, 2009 4:18 PM

Dude, this made me weep. In a good and bad way.

Posted by: Amanda at January 9, 2009 8:17 PM

while we dance at my church, it's nothing like that. i don't know what's better, the dance routine or the image i had of them choreographing and practicing the routine. i think it's a winner either way

Posted by: talda at January 9, 2009 11:37 PM

You Rock! Too Funny! This rates right up there with Cubby doing all the "Single Ladies" by Beyonce. I now have another "go to" video after a hard day at work! Thank You Y!

Posted by: JesseeezMom at January 10, 2009 12:03 AM

Y..
I cannot tell you how much this video made my day... for reals.. I needed a good laugh. I agree with Amy.. I would have thought this was from the late 80's or 90's.... but never 2007 !!!
I hope you don't mind, I had to put it up on my blog...
Priceless !!!

Posted by: Marcy at January 10, 2009 11:25 AM

I'm...I'm...genuinely frightened by this. Is it the hair? The sychronized-swimming type of musical nightmare? Or their unapologetic "whiteness"?

Posted by: apathy lounge at January 10, 2009 3:26 PM

This was really interesting and I thought it was a great avenue for spreading the word.

Thanks for sharing..

Love the break out moves the dude does in the middle of the performance. So inspiring. WWJD - indeed!

Posted by: Terrie at January 10, 2009 7:48 PM

They make baby Jesus cry.

Posted by: Kris at January 11, 2009 7:51 PM

I find this more than SOMEwhat disturbing! I find it sacriligious. Hmmm, "be not conformed to this word" (Romans 12:2) comes to mind. I'd be outta there fast!

Posted by: brad at January 11, 2009 8:12 PM

I actually thought of you tonight when I was at church. We were singing a hymn, when I had a silent but smelly fart. Just as that happened, the man beside me turned and bent over behind me to pick up something that fell. Fortunately, it was the final hymn so I could high tail it out of there without ever making eye contact.

    About Y
    My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 15 year old son, a 11 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
