What is the point in 'happy clappy' music?

inDEED, I'm with you 100% on this, and I also posted these verses from the Psalms a few weeks ago in defense of praising God, but people on Phatmass do not seem to warm up to the idea of praise and worship songs at mass, although these songs certainly are accepted or parishes wouldn't allow it. People worship in different ways and all ways if they are done in the spirit of praise and love are acceptable to God. I guess it's all what people are used to. Too bad we all can't be open to other forms of woship which are acceptable and encouraged by some diocese. What's wrong with that I ask you?

i like a lot of those songs. i enjoy chant too, but i like, for example, Matt Maher songs, or Steve Angrisano. They are doing holy and good work and should be commended for it. just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's wrong.
