You beat me to it!

Our choirmaster thinks that site is a hoot! Of course, he is a real old-fashioned musician and loves the chant and medieval and Renaissance polyphony. (Who wouldn't, once they hear it done well and reverently?)

I want to be able to be a part of mass and if it means I have to sing squishy little tunes that say almost nothing, Then that is what I do. But, since I am here and have seen what you beautiful people say ... here is what puts the extra starch in my shorts:

Doing the same Responsorial Psalm ... regardless of the readings or the season ... every Sunday. Such as:

"Taste and see that the lord is good."

What are the other highly repetitive psalms that people use ad nauseam?

Taking the Lamb of God and changing it to anything but Lamb of God. ... "Prince of Peace" ... "Merciful Lord" ... "Dude of Cool" Takes away the sin of the world ...
