I have to agree that Rock of Ages is one of my least favorite hymns. Give me any hymn written by Ralph Vaughn Willams or just about any traditional Welsh hymn--sung, preferably, in Welsh! Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah (Arglwydd, Arwain Trwy'r Anialwch) sung by Bryn Terfel is a real barn buster! |

Absolutely one of my all time favorites--England in a song! You should also listen to two more of his works, Dives and Lazarus and Flos Campi (my favorite classical piece of all). Have you heard his Sinfonia Antartica (Antarctic Symphony)--very powerful and brooding. Edited by: Rob Faleer at:4th February 2011 00:08 |

There was a time that I couldn't stand Abba, and I don't think they were every as big in the US as they were (are) in Europe. But now I think they're great.
