Songs of Praise Palm Sunday 2012

Post by JimmyRiddle »

mmmm.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01fhl7h" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - April 1st Palm Sunday

It's the same line-up as the program titled 'God Made Man' which as we know from this thread was shown on 4th December, even the presenter is the same. So either they are going to repeat their songs (would they repeat Still, Still, Still on Palm Sunday edition?) or fingers crossed the artists will be performing their second songs. Could this be the 'How Shall I Sing That Majesty'? Barney referenced in the Classic FM interview? We will get a mini-preview on Sunday.

I very highly doubt that they'd repeat "Still, Still, Still" on Palm Sunday, and from what information you've given (and from the very little I know, haha) I'd guess that "How Shall I Sing That Majesty" would be a fairly appropriate substitution.

Unless SoP isn't going along with the proper church calendar (i.e Christmas song vs. Palm Sunday anthem) I'd say that "Still..." is definitely out. I do love seeing that Libera is going to be part of the program though, whatever they're singing. :)

SoP loosely follows the church calendar, for instance last Sunday had the Mothering Sunday theme (a British tradition to bring flowers to your mother church and/or honour your own Mum). There's no way they'll sing Still, Still, Still on Palm Sunday. How Shall I Sing would fit since it speaks of God's majesty and on Palm Sunday, Jesus is being welcomed into Jerusalem as a king...
We'll know in 10 days :) Looking forward to it :)

My thoughts exactly. I wasn't exactly sure about how loosely they follow the liturgical calendar, but like we both agree, Libera will NOT be singing "Still, Still, Still." That's quite a bit of a far cry from loosely following the church calendar.

Ten days, and I hope someone will post it on YouTube so those of us who can't access the program can see it too. Palm Sunday is one of my favorite church services, but I'm a bit of a former church monkey so that probably isn't saying a lot. :)

It does sound like it's going to be How Shall I Sing, which is one of my absolute favorite Libera songs. :D I can't wait!

My Absolute favorite to!! IF it's a new recording than it will prob be Stef and Eoghan!! Which would be great, because Stefans voice has grown SOOO much since the last recording of How shall I..
Can't wait for the Youtube vid to arrive in Ethiopia!! :D

Here is a screen cap from today Songs of Praise, during the "next week" sequence.

It really seems the coming video is not "Still Still Still", due to many things, the light, absence of candles, the boys location with Eoghan and Stefan at the center :)


Below is two screen caps from Still Still Still to compare :)

I remember that back when "Still Still Still" aired Dec. 4, 2011, the preview the week before showed this same formation, NOT the formation for "Still Still Still."

I only see little frogs where the pictures are supposed to be, but if you have Eoghan and Stefan in the middle, then it's gotta be How Shall I Sing.

I told my boyfriend after watching Songs of Praise yesterday that there was bound to be a discussion on the forum about the 1 second preview shot and you guys don't disappoint :lol: And yep, the outcome so far of the discussion is as I predicted ;)
I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to watch, so hoping for a video later ;)

If recent form continues, Libera will have it ready to view on their YouTube channel a few minutes after the the video airs on UK tv.
If I’ve got owt to say I says it, and if I’ve got owt to ask I asks it.

If it is 'HSISTM' I hope they don't reduce it to 2 minutes or so. Its the kind of song that benefits from the build up. Then again with 3 artsist in the line-up you fear the worst.
