Cormac Thompson - True Colours (CCM)


'True Colours' by Cormac Thompson is a breathtaking cover of Cyndi Lauper's 80s classic that is guaranteed to leave you in awe. At just 13 years old, Cormac has been a seasoned singer since he was a young boy. His debut album, Hear My Voice, which was released by Decca Records, was met with much praise when he was just 11 years old. Since then, Cormac's treble voice has earned him numerous accolades, including a solo performance at the Royal Albert Hall, a place in the final of Young Chorister of the Year, and an appearance on Britain's Got Talent.

Cormac Thompson - True ColoursThis recording of 'True Colours' showcases Cormac's musical abilities as he accompanies himself on the piano (keyboard for the actual recording). He has kept the arrangement simple, with just a few pads to bind everything together, and added a unique blend of his younger treble voice with his lower voice on the last note, 'Rainbow'. This innovative approach was inspired by Cormac's voice changing between learning the song and recording it.

The lyrics of 'True Colours' are a beautiful reminder of love and acceptance. The song encourages the listener to not be afraid to show their true colors, as they are beautiful just like a rainbow. It serves as a message of hope and comfort, reminding us that even in a world full of people, we are never alone, and someone will always be there to see our true colors shining through.

'True Colours' by Cormac Thompson is a must-listen for anyone looking for a heartfelt and moving song. With his soulful voice and emotional performance, Cormac brings the song to life and leaves a lasting impression on the listener. So don't hesitate, give it a listen and be transported to a world of beauty and love.

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...

"Heaven Country" by Jensen & Company: Where Faith Meets Fiddles

Jensen & Company's 'Heaven Country' features Heidi Jensen North. It's a song that bursts with an infectious Texas swing energy, with steel guitars, fiddles, and washboard rhythms that pull you into the vibe. Beneath this melodic energy is a message with a promise: heaven isn't just a destination, it's a homeland where every tear is wiped away!  Can you imagine streets where lions walk with lambs, hunger vanishes, and divisions dissolve into unity? What a contrast compared with today's world! One of the lines that stands out: "There's no divide - there's just one side // The Son is shining every day."  What if we were to start living today as citizens of that eternal country? What's stopping us? The song challenges us: "All the love that you've acquired here - it's your money // Be sure to fill your account." It's a call to invest in what truly lasts. You've never seen its glory, never heard its songs - but...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...
