Jesus is a Friend of Mine

[BrightStaroftheDawn]

....and although people mocked the song, told him that his song sucked over nine thousand times, which also was of no benefit to the band , which also sucked equally....he played it over and over like some kind of asspie , it for it gave him a great satisfaction other than spiritual.....

[aCelation]

@Heaney see that's just the thing that some just can't fathom--> HE'S NOT DEAD! That's why they say Jesus IS a friend of mine (PRESENT TENSE)

[Heaney5551]

If a person who died roughly 2000 years ago is your friend, where's your time machine?

[Cokacolabearcola]

Smosh made a remake "vader is a friend of mine" pretty funny to me :)



[evifnoskcaj]

Wow these guys suck!

[weRwednsdays]

HaHaHa

[Crazydv8]

hahahaha best ska song ever

[AvantGrapes]

YES!!!

[Garrettrwilsonmusic]

LOLOLOLOLOL ZAP.

[DsHokage3D]

Smoosh sent me here

[funkydolphinsusa]

Pretty good.

A lot like the original.

Check out my rockin version.

I have changed it a bit.

[cullenxxlover]

zapp!! oh the memories from my english class....!!! *sigh*

[masontonio]

Hilarious....

[rumpwrestler]

This is great music. It turns anyone away from the idea of being any kind of christian nut case. "Jesus is no friend of mine".....

[unpopulardorkz]

@rumpwrestler Jesus is lord <3

[rumpwrestler]

@unpopulardorkz Lord of what? The toilet bowl?  Your anal cavity?

[unpopulardorkz]

@rumpwrestler Jesus is lord ! Lord of all heaven and earth ! Jesus IS!

[unpopulardorkz]

@unpopulardorkz and he loves you ! even now he is looking down with love , the bibke says .he wishes that none would perish , but that all would come to repentance .God is a saving god . Thank you jesus for the cross!

[donkeywaffle]

this song has become a great Christian joke! hahahahahahaha

[stingstungme]

At least they see the humor in this.

[odgeUK]

ZAp!

[smallfri1674]

i would love to hear the whole thing by david crowder band

[andrew1191]

that is class, it had to be david crowder band to do it

[SevenMileWalk]

crowder makes this song tolerable...

[rumpwrestler]

@SevenMileWalk TOLERABLE????? No matter who performs it, I always conclude with: Let me just kick jesus once in the teeth.

[gudroe7]

@rumpwrestler you already did at the cross

[Bootsaremything]

Likes this! :P

[jakbiking2]

oh forsure they were making fun of "Sonseed" hahaha SOOOO JOKES hahahahah love it

[roaringwaterbay]

i hope they are not making fun of Sonseed. Sonseed were pioneers, i think, of a sort.

[bassjeff2005]

Ha ha

[Imesuckaholla]

somebody tune that bass

[champania8]

holy crap. legit.

[merunfar89]

@Imesuckaholla its the video quality. everyone sounds a bit out of tune.

[LdyOfWsdm]

Christians do have FUN...believe it or not!

[meinerHeld]

@Imesuckaholla the bass is in tune...the bassist wasn't. haha

[tsvorvitaliy]

j-j-j-jesu is my friend.... haaaaa.... this is so amusing!

[RayManzarekGod]

You HAVE to be kidding me..

[SkullVodka]

Almost as bad as the original, and still very dumb.

[jjared]

Obviously a joke -_-

[angels77100]

I've got all their Albums.

[geisler78]

augh... Crowder. Typical

[ShuaHoney]

LOL very funny!

[GreenbergBass]

Uh oh, the bass screwed up his solo.

[GreenbergBass]

hmmm, or maybe he just played something different than the normal 1-3-5

[beaumontrock]

no, he definitely screwed it up.

[Jdog3]

can you show us that corpse? If you can I'll renounce Jesus.

[5thdimension7777]

maybe its you?

[ziger824]

THIS Is hilarious! I saw the original video, then saw this, and I'm a big David Crowder fan. I laughed so hard at this!

[Snorkel00]

Gonna have to make the praise team at my church learn this now... totally awesome.

[hnddbbdac]

mine is working on it, it's good for awkward moments when someone in the band messes up or something, it's awesome lol

[randomkid77]

Oh mate!!! :)

Best christian song ever!

[quarkenzyme89]

hahahahahah that looks like it was spontaneous! like it just fit into the conversation so the just popped up and did it! hahahah sweet.

i love how they just bowled over the MCs! xD

"ok, were taking over now!"

[7snowdog]

LilJimmyNordin, you are a loser yourself. I'm a Catholic and I can assure you that normally christians find it funny in the same way atheists do.

[WallsNeedGates]

they are joking.........

[jnc06f]

considering that this song was created by some weird christians 30 years ago, i'd say it's not cool to put any group into a box. these guys are obviously making fun of the song.

[JonneyGee]

Hilarious... leave it to Crowder to do something like this. I went to UBC for awhile, and my favorite memory like this was the first week of football season when DC*B played the Fox NFL theme. Good times.

[ItisntLAME]

I love David Crowder!

[bluejacket26]

Zap!

[javakat343]

It's dorkey and awsome!

[krishanson]

Crowder can make ANYTHING cool. lol

[wtfroman]

this is tight

[Anonymus0809]

lol!

[ludwig457]

i saw the original and got rick rolled.

[uberleetpowner]

does anyone know the chords for this song?

[chicken2049]

I found this on a website somewhere on the interwebs. Here it is:

Intro: EE DD GG B

Verse: E - E - A - B

Verse Bassline: E, 3rd - 5th twice A, 3rd to 5th, B 3rd to 5th

Chorus: A - E - B - E

The Keyboard might play C#minor - B - A - E

I haven't tried it out yet but it looks decent. The person who wrote it added in a later post : "Oops, correctionactually the buildup is F# then to B my bad"

I think he was talking about the intro.

[csrcjr]

Goodness, Lord, get over it you Holy Rollers! This is awesome, but the original will always be the best.

[longdongbongchong]

the bass player is weak sauce

[Cophren]

hahahaha, very very nice!

[macandrewes]

yep. well said...

[ChillyCheezItz]

i love love love Gram Parsons!

[macandrewes]

wow no way! i have no idea who you are, but obviously we have some important, ummm, 'values' in common!

[Shredderific]

No matter how many times I listen to the different videos of this song. It never gets old. Although this rendition is no good. =(

[bpcraig]

I didn't know Cornel West played guitar.

[csrcjr]

This has taken a mind of it's own on the net! So awesome, and love the bass line!

Zap!

[3yahweh3]

Amen, brother

[theruley]

if only one guy coverd this song its gotta be david crowder!

[ian3008]

Thats too funny.

[LotusMan01]

LOL!! Too funny. They should do Cartman's SouthPark Christian Band songs. "I need you in my life...Jesus. Gotta have you in my life...Jesus."

[hardr0ck]

some were blasphemous.

[hardr0ck]

david crowder band rocks.  hilarious that they'd play this.

[patyiot2]

David Rocks!

[flavorful1]

Loveit, love it, love it. Makes me want dance.

[godlover082]

I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!

[Theodore781]

LOL JESUS R FUNNAY.

[fishsauce]

hahah!

[drummerguydavid]

David Crowder doing this song sounds so much better than sonseed.

but that doesn't make the song any better. The minute my church does this song, I'm out.

Especially because I'm on the praise team.

only kidding. I'd stay. After praying hard for the service.

[chattycat6641]

ZAP!

[TheMadMusicMan]

Haha. Too funny! Love it. The bass player made a small mistake though.

[9746478]

THIS IS VERY FUNNY!!!!!!

[vm4god]

That's histerical! Never thought I'd actually hate a Crowder song! ha ha!

[chuvv]

Sonseed has now officially hit cult status :)

[vladdraculii]

hmm this song makes me giggle heh

[leznig06]

bass is bad!

[lexidoodleellis]

wow. this song has been an anthem for me for a while.

this just makes it that much better

[Vicfirth1989]

David Crowder Band is so funny and so amazing...awesome vid!!

[neptho]

What a wonderful cover. Thank you!

[klawdd]

excellent

[benolieto]

hi,

Great song,

i wil learn to play. Can you help me?

the accords and lyrics?

Thanks

[dompascarella]

this is so funny

[Begis]

Yeah... i would like the chord chart to this... i think i can hear most of them... but a chart would be great.

[partyandahalf]

wow do you have chords???!!!!

that was so sweet, and i know our youth band would so love it if we could do it!!! we got a guitarist ready with the moves and all...:P

[lovescarguitar]

still need those chords to "Jesus is a friend of mine"?

[BYLRPhil]

I was there for that!

[aulpay9]

.....that made my life...

[jontony]

this is great! i can't believe they did it, thats so funny

[holyroller7]

did the david crowder band even give credit that it was someone elses song?

[eumorpho3]

read david's blog, you will know from there that they even showed the video to the congregation so everyone know that it came from youtube and it wasn't an original from them. and yes, to the congregation coz it was during the church service so no money made coz there is no admission charge to attend UBC. so stop telling us they need to pay up. Coz if everyone needs to pay for every song they play on their local churches, dc*b will be very rich now.

[holyroller7]

they dont charge admission to go to church? everyone needs to go then!!!!!!!!!

[eumorpho3]

yeah, i think you should. try it sometime, maybe you'll enjoy it.

[holyroller7]

i do go to church, a Southern Baptist one at that. i am also Baptized in the Holy Ghost which means that i can manifest ALL the spiritual gifts, glory to GOD. na, for real, i love the david crowder band, i like the remixed album the best.

[holyroller7]

SONOFSEED is right, the david crowder band probably charged admission for the show, so they are making money, so they need to pay up. the bible says for us believers to judge in these matters so dont hate me. :)

[endoftheroadj]

sigh... it was at their church

[holyroller7]

: )

[sonofsonseed]

Thanks for yhe info; I really appreciate it. I'm just trying to protect myself. I may re-record this with my current band, however, and put it out. We'll see...

[jcollesano]

*Was anyone actually hoping to make money off of the song? I'm gonna go out on a limb here and bet no one will ever televise this...ever... but i'm a firm supporter of the idea that they should!

[GaaraFoshaara]

bix nood

[sonofsonseed]

Yes, that is a pretty awesome cover! I would appreciate, however, if someone could let me know if this is from a televised TV show.  As the writer and performer of this song (yes, from the original "Sonseed" video) I own the copyright and the song is registered with ASCAP. I just need to make sure the producers of this show registered the performance with ASCAP. So far I haven't made a dime from this whole thing and, well, fun is fun (I'm terribly flattered!) but fair is fair. Thanks.

[majeong]

this is at one of their church services that they tape their sermons for, not televised. just for those that miss out on service can see the sermon, but i'm pretty sure they are not making money off this.

[ralphsthomas]

Awesome sauce.

[acollisionn]

who are the two guys?

[HumaBHS04]

They are our MCs (announcement people) at University Baptist Church...where DC*B are the worship leaders

[awesomerita]

bahaaaaa this is very funny. I was looking for the original and found this, what a pleasant suprise! I love DC*B!

[Synthspike]

love it.

[carryyocross]

We Need a Music Video for this song Davidcrowderband

[davidcrowderband]

thanks jon.

[3amJosh]

Wow, I am amazed you posted on here! This is a brilliant cover and you will get mad props for being the first to do it so well!

[benitosuave]

Only DCB could handle this

[uselessness]

I want to hear this on the next Crowder album. Seriously.

[endoftheroadj]

epic

[VarsityBands]

Wow, thanks for this amazing post. can't believe it only has 220 views? I just blogged it so hopefully it will get more views!

[sftl99]

crowder is amazing...ly weird. love it!

[andrewmay12]

how about luchador?

[westerPaulie]

hahaha nice
