We taught Matt Redman's new single, "Never Once" this past Sunday in church. We did it as a special song, and added a little video of people in our church declaring God's faithfulness. It was our first attempt at adding a video in the middle of a song, and it went really well!
We did the song just as the recording through the bridge, and at the end of the bridge, right before it goes into the final big chorus, the band backed way off, playing the bridge chord progression softly. At the end of the statements in the video the band began to build, and right when the final words, "Never Once," were stated in the video, we cranked into a big final Chorus. We hit it and everyone was on there feet right out of the video. It was a great way of making the lyrics of the song personal to our church, and took the lyrics of the song one step further. It was great to give different people in our church the opportunity to be apart of this worship element.
Again, the video was our first attempt at making something that our band would play behind. Our video man wrote a specific script, so we just had everyone say some of the lines, and pieced it together. The next one we will get a little more emotion from those stating, just to create that energy a little better as the band builds. Other than that it was a good attempt. Here's the video. We put music behind this just for the feel, but the original has no music behind it.
