Over My Head

Whenever a member of a boy band (or girl band for that matter) releases a solo album it's very often met with skepticism and derision. And usually it isn't nearly as good as what was pumped out by the machine that made the group.
Doing something different, more personal and/or meaningful than what is expected is probably a good start. Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell has come out with an album that is way out of left field.
He's released, a while back now, a Christian album and it's pretty good on first listen.
It's not shallow lyric-wise and you get the sense he really means what he is singing here, that all the Backstreet Boys success hasn't got to him and that his foundation is God and not the world.
The only problem is that I can't get too far into the album because when the track `Over My Head' comes on I just want to hit repeat.
Not too many songs send chills through my body when I listen to them but this one did, and does every time I hear it. I had heard it a few times on radio but when you are really listenening to the words it has more effect.

I'm in over my head
I'm right where I wanna be
I'm so lost within your love
The love that always covers me
So high, so deep, so wide
A strong and cleansing tide
My soul has found a place to rest
I'm in over my head.

I'm not going too far in saying that I rate this song, Over My Head, as one of the best Christian songs, as opposed to worship songs, I've heard and would be easily within my top five of that genre. Check it out.
