Ya put yer right arm in,
Ya put yer right arm out,
Ya put yer right arm in,
And you shake it all about,
Ya do the 'Hokey-Pokey'
And ya turn yerself around,
THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT!!!

OBTW, the group of 'ladies' in that picture really is a howlingly mind-bending absurdity.

I can't help but notice that we are not admonished to praise Him with repetitive two-chord musical pap. True. Neither are we admonished to praise Him only with old music; quite the opposite:
O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. - Psalm 96:1

But the REAL old-time music - the Sacred Harp, Southern Harmony, Kentucky Harmony, etc. - is perfectly appropriate for a Catholic Mass. It's traditionally sung a cappella, the texts are usually scripture or a paraphrase, and the music is based on classical fugue models. It had its origins in the New England Singing School composers - Billings, Justin Morgan, etc. - and that old style was sort of preserved in amber in the rural South. AAM, the more I troll these threads the more in awe I become of your musical knowledge. :)
Now, of course, I'm going to have to look up these styles you mention!

They're all in stretch pants. I bet some of them are stirrup.

You mean the "Leader of Song." Careful, I used to do that, LOL!

I would say we should be looking for some more comments or 'suggestions' on kneeling for those we are capable. I was raised in a high-church Episcopal tradition, where it seemed we spent half the service on our knees. Now that I am older and wiser, I know that the discomfort of spending fifteen minutes kneeling, with the relief of standing to take communion, followed by the warm glow from a healthy slug of sweet red Port, is an allegory for how our suffering in this world will be replaced by joy in God's presence.
I still miss the 1928 Prayer Book liturgy and the old Episcopal hymnal, even though we have returned to Mother Rome. I wish there were an Anglican Use parish in our diocese.

I'm not real fond of the one-armed salute that is so prevalent in worship these days. I find it mildly alarming, to tell you the truth.
Your photo is a good example.

Music after 1900; lyrics after 1000 No. Your lyrical cut-off is too early. I propose precisely 07MAR1274.

Really strange note: It seems all the charismatic Catholic groups in the DC area are incorporating Latin Hymns and Eucharistic adoration...

It's entirely possible, but one would have to examine their feet to be sure.
I'm certainly not one to do that.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it ...

Supposedly, that is some sort of "empowerment" gesture of defiance which feminists and alternative lifestyleoids have picked up along the way. Although the most familiar use of that we all remember with some horror (Germany: 1933-1945), it derives from older occult groups like the Vril Society and the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. History is stranger than fiction... sometimes.

What if the Hokey-Pokey really is what it's all about?
