@MultiMasterjake They're still together yes. However, the two best guys and frontmen from the band, Peter Furler and Phil Joel, have left. :( The band is not the same without them at all.
This is an...interesting video. I LOVE the song, but the video is...weird. I'm actually kind of glad that Newsboys "went to the modern age" music, if you know what I mean. I'm not saying that this isn't a good song, because I LOVE it, but I really like their more recent music. The type of music in this song isn't as appealing to the people anymore, if you know what I mean.
I was in 4th grade when this came out! I remember everyday at school we would sing Newsboys for morning worship in homeroom.
During the end-of-school talent show all the 4th grade girls dragged all the 4th grade boys on stage (7 girls, 3 boys) and danced around them, dressed in tinfoil while singing to this song that was playing on the cassette player! Those were the good times!
I got to see these guys perform this song live, and John actually had his spacesuit on as he was singing. After all these years this song still rocks!
I love this and love the newsboys! All time favorite band. And the date for the WOW thing on the bottom of the screen said 1997- which is the year I was born yaaay!
i remember very vividly watching these guys in a movie when i was like 6 maybe. it was several years ago and i was very little and these guys had stuck their songs in meh head and i like it still :)
Let's ask ourselves, when the world sees us, does Christ shine so brightly, that they desire the hope, joy, and love that resides in us? When we squeeze a lemon, we get lemon juice. When we squeeze an orange, we get orange juice. When the world squeezes us, do they get Jesus?
Let your light shine before all men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father in heaven.
They should have tried to bring back the old lead singer instead of bringing in Michael Tait. Tait is a great singer and musician, but the Newsboys is no longer the Newsboys since Peter left the lead job.
@Jesusisyhwh I agree Peter Furler was a great leader singer, but Michael Tail brings a fresh feel to the band. Besides, interesting you should say that as a comment on this music video, since Peter didn't even sing lead on most of the "Take Me To Your Leader" album.
i remember when this song was # 1 me and my HS sweetheart went to see them in concert in houston texas and everytime i hear this song and the other ones that the newsboys sung i think of my HS sweetheart!!! MISS YA TJ!!!!
this song is awsome its a little hard to memerize but its still good. i am a christran and this song is a great way of sort of telling how easy it is to become a christan
I love the Newsboys, but I think this is where they peaked musically. This is the only album with John James and Phil Joel in the band. I wish they stayed together a little while longer. Perhaps one day they will have a reunion with this group. I would not miss that!
This time, during the mid-late 90's was, the only time in the history of Christian music that it was ahead of the curve. Usually the old proverb "If you want to know what will be popular in Christian music 5 years from now, look at the secular pop charts this week." is very true, but for this little speck of time we were on the charts and breaking musical ground.
@RichieEastside I would just like to say that the Newsboys have never been a band on any curve....they don't care about the curve....they are the curve! lol...I've never seen them trying to follow anybody's mold, mainstream or christian, and I think that's why they own and will forever!
@hbugirl I hear that. Like Elvis WAS the stadium. And he stayed right here. Like the Dirty Dancing song, Stay. Patrick Swayze stayed too. How else did his Dirty Dancing partner win Dancing With The Stars?
Peter Furler was originally the drummer and John James was the lead singer of the Newsboys back then until Peter Furler took over as lead singer of the Newsboys later on. :)
I am trying to find this song and I do not remember who sings it. It was out around 1997 and the lyrics go something like "to get to know you bettter, to love you more than myself..." does anyone know this Christian band or song?
When I came tot he Lord, the Newsboys were one of the first Christian bands I listened to. And they would be the first Christian band I saw live in concert to... =)
The best thing that ever happened to Christian music, a unique, fresh and funky switch from the kind of thing that puts you to sleep with quirky lyrics, catchy tunes and the message of God's love.
Looked up Newsboys on Wikipedia. James is the Original Lead singer and was replaced with Peter Furler the bands Drummer. Love how James plays to the Camera in this Video. Looks like They All enjoyed making this Video.
It takes alot of trust and faith to become a christian after atheism:) And what they commented is true. Just pray one day for something and see what happens, i think you will like the results:)
The only reason you are an atheist is because you are scared to let God in because you think you aren't good enough for the Saviour of the world to ever accept you for who you are. Trust me the Grace of God through His Son Jesus going to the cross is phenomenal and you need to realize it. Jesus died on the cross for all your sins and you can become a Christian... Please realize what I am saying because I used to be an "atheist" but now I am a born again believer. It is true.
@Hoganer1990 Well. One could pray all they want, but unless the Holy Spirit reveals the Son...Yes that is scriptural. Look it up. It's because of this that back up the "pre-destination" creed which I don't believe in. Personally, I think if somebody truly want's God, He's there waiting, willing and very able to wash them clean. But anyway...
Glad to see I am not the only one who feels this way. My days of religion are over but the music I enjoyed during that time still sounds good to me today.
@mesupermommy i remember goin to their concert back in the 90s. san luis obispo. i was little back then. but i remember the drum solo, the praying, the rabid fan chicks, and the outro to the concert. good times. :)
What do you mean? If you want to know if they are a Christian band then the answer is definitely yes. If you want to know if they have personally devoted their whole beings to God, you would have to know them personally to find out, but it seems likely to me that they are trying as hard for that as any of us.
They became a band in 1985 and Peter Furler, and John James came up with the idea and john dropped out to do his own thing and peter took the stand and duncan came in as the drummer and not long after that jeff dropped out of wayne state university to become the keyboards/and bass, then jody left to take care of his daugther then phil came and went jody came back, peter unfortunately left because he was tired of tours and Micheal tait from DCtalk is now the lead singer of The Newsboys. =)
and i know a bunch of people are mad that micheal tait is the new lead singer, but i just saw newsboys this summer WITH michael tait, and he is so legit!! in my opinion. dont worry longtime newsboys fans, your fave band has MOS DEF NOT been ruined. :))
Michael Tait as in Tait from DC Talk? That sounds to me like the two greatest bands in the Christian rock/pop world coming together. I wouldn't call it a step back at all!
The reason why John James left is because He had severe marriage problems!! He was so addicted to fame and the money during His career that he also fell away from God. He also had been addicted to drugs and alcohol. He's living for God now!!
Wow, I have not seen this video since 1996 or 1997 when I first heard of the Newsboys! This takes me way back... great memories. Somewhat sad to see that none of the original lineup are with the band anymore.
Well, true. When they started in the mid to late 80's, Peter and John were the only ones still with the Newsboys. But, Duncan, Jeff, and Jody are still with the Newsboys....they're pretty much close to the original line up. lol...in my book. Don't know if it's gonna be the same. I like Michael...love him...it's just different.
newsboys is never going to be the same without peter he is newsboys to me. this music video makes no sense i get the fact that they're aliens and stuff but it's just kind of weird
Jody is still with the band so maybe he and Tait will share the role...plus Peter isnt leaving for good...he is still going to make special apperances on tour and continue to write and produce for them....
Yeah I was practically raised on these guys! A few weeks ago I actually heard them play Not Stand Silent from Boys Will Be Boyz on Pandora Radio. I was only 4 when that cd came out! Hahahaha!
Tait is a great singer but the newsboys and him have totally different creative outputs. Tait might want to do something this way but the band wants to go this way. The newsboys act as a whole unit, when one is gone you can tell, their incomplete at the moment.
This song rocks! I can't believe how old it is! lol. I used to listen to it like all the time. And somehow this morning it just popped into my head out of the blue!
Probably cuz I've known this song since I was little, and only recently (like a week ago) heard Breakfast. Breakfast is growing on me, but I still like Take Me to Your Leader better. :]
LOL. I didn't even know a video for this song existed. I've always wanted a visual to this crazy song, and they delivered. John James is just straight-up wacky!
i have this VHS! wow 1997? to prove it..on the cover the ...person..albums are steven curtis Chapman Audio adrenaline newsboys dc talk michal w smith carman rebecca st james( and two bonus videos from third day and jacki velasquez ) ..to think third day was "new" back then....
Did John James or Peter Furler sing the actual studio lead vocals on this song? Because I know they split studio vocals for a while. I think it's weird how they worked all of that stuff.
I really like how the Newsboys keep their music fresh through the years. I like Third Day but the last 3 albums all kind of sound the same. Growing up I was into Van Halen, Motley Crue, and Metallica, so when I gave my life to Christ, I was thankful for music like this to help me keep my sanity! I just cannot listen to the Gaithers or the like and not want to change the dial. Long Live the Rock!
this video es classic, is so cool and is very fun see peter furler with hair..jejejeje... greetings guys...

i like this song but who agrees with me that their song Breakfast is way better!?♥
LancerGirl97 2 years ago
Breakfast used to be my fave song...that was before I heard Something Beautiful tho :)

Both are good but I like this one better.
Probably cuz I've known this song since I was little, and only recently (like a week ago) heard Breakfast. Breakfast is growing on me, but I still like Take Me to Your Leader better. :]

LOL. I didn't even know a video for this song existed. I've always wanted a visual to this crazy song, and they delivered. John James is just straight-up wacky!

The band was never quite the same after John James left. They definitely hit their peak with this album.

what is John James at today?
hotdyme86 3 years ago
Did John James or Peter Furler sing the actual studio lead vocals on this song? Because I know they split studio vocals for a while. I think it's weird how they worked all of that stuff.
jasonjon88 3 years ago
John James sang the verses for this song, but Phil Joel sang the leads on the chorus.

I really like how the Newsboys keep their music fresh through the years. I like Third Day but the last 3 albums all kind of sound the same. Growing up I was into Van Halen, Motley Crue, and Metallica, so when I gave my life to Christ, I was thankful for music like this to help me keep my sanity! I just cannot listen to the Gaithers or the like and not want to change the dial. Long Live the Rock!
