'Dad Song' by Nate Goering: A Serenade to Fathers and the Love They Pass Down


In Nate Goering's 'Dad Song', Nate pays tribute to fathers, from fathers and grandfathers (and/or people that have embraced and loved us like a father would/should) to a Heavenly Father. Nate shares how he struggled to capture the full depth of his feelings for his dad in this song, and I think that is a challenge we all face: how can we express the inexpressible? How do we find the right words to express the love and gratitude we have for those who've shaped us? 

Nate Goering - Dad SongAs you listen to 'Dad Song', you realize that it isn't just about Nate and his dad. It's about us. It's about the tidbits of wisdom that have been passed on to us, the support we've received to reach the milestones in our lives, and the unconditional love that guides us. This song reflects the many ways that love and life lessons flow through us, from the advice on turning a screw to the embrace that says 'you're found.' It's in the corny jokes we can't help but laugh at, the heavy things even strong hands can't fix, and in the realization that, in writing our lives, we honor those who've penned chapters before us. Maybe it's just me, but my thoughts expand the scope to include a Heavenly Father who continues to pen the chapters of my life.

Our lives are filled with 'dad songs,' moments and memories that we can pass along. Nate encourages us to cherish these treasures, to embrace the echoes of love in everyday life, and to remember that every action, every decision, carries a piece of those who have touched our hearts. Through 'Dad Song,' we see that our lives are a homage to their legacy - a song that never really ends.

I hope that this song reminds you of the priceless impact of love, guidance, and legacy that can also be found in your life. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find your own voice in Nate's melody, seeing the ways your life sings a 'dad song' too.

"Coming Out Of Babylon" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Finding Purpose and Joy in Christ

Robert Peterson had barely dusted off his drum kit when the Lord handed him a new setlist. Robert shares: "this current round of songs being created were different - they were all his - well sort of all his." He had decided it was time to offer up his talents to the Lord. Robert writes: "I was mortified at the thought of actually giving my life to Him. I didn't want to give up who I thought I was."   "Coming Out of Babylon" is the first song coming out of this change (one that was on the shelve a while pending creation of a intro). The result is a five-minute testimony that turns a trembling surrender into a victory march. As you listen, you can feel how this slow ache of "doing what I wanted to… without a fear" transitions into the realization that "I needed You - all the way."   What I enjoy about the song is that it helps to see "leaving" as the first step that is needed to following His calling for us. The chorus emph...

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...
