Rush (Don’t Ask Me Why, Learning To Fly, We Are Family)
Starring: Tom Ellis, Larenz Tate, Sarah Habel, Rick Gonzalez, Erica Cerra, Harry Hamlin, Rachel Nichols
USA Network has taken a risk with it’s new show Rush, presenting us with Hawk Lawson from Royal Pains, but essentially making the titular character of Dr William Rush (Tom Ellis) a bit more rough around the edges, more ethically immoral (maybe ethically apathetic in certain situations), and certainly only invested when there are big bucks and large sums of money involved. Though the show hasn’t received the high ratings that we’ve come to expect from USA Network (and we have seen the high viewers in shows like Royal Pains, Suits and shows that have ended like Psych, Burn Notice and White Collar), and this ratings dip is probably due to Rushand Satisfaction having virtually no lead in- no established show to lead into the two new dramas; these past few episodes since I reviewed the pilot, have garnered my interest slightly. Although the show is flawed, as there are many plot points that are cliché and at which I roll my eyes, there are also developments that are interesting, of which I will lay out below.

TV Thursdays: What Happens After We Die? (Life On Mars, Ashes To Ashes)
A very sobering, uncomfortable, hotly debated, controversial and confronting topic, the notion that our actions in this life impact the next after we die, has been proposed in numerous formats by various religions and beliefs since the dawn of time.

Everfound – Reimagine EP
Message Mondays – The Prodigal Son and Jeremy Camp’s “Take You Back”
Just today, I was preparing dinner for the bible study group to attend as they come to my house often (once every 2-3 weeks) to learn more about Jesus. While I was cooking dinner, with Pandora from my phone blasting at full volume, one of the songs really spoke to me, which was Jeremy Camp’s “Take You Back”- this was a song that demanded attention, not the half hearted listening while I was cooking. So I listened to the song again later tonight.

Top 10 ___ (Introduction): Top Ten Worship Artists!
Welcome to our newest blog series Top Tens, which will be posted every Sunday (Australian time, which may be Saturday in other parts of the world…), where I will be sharing my ‘top ten ____’- whether it be favourite songs, artists for a certain time period (which is obviously a personal opinion and isn’t meant to drag artists down), movie trilogies, Australian food, past times in the summer, activities to undertake at the beach, superheroes, the list goes on. I will also give completely subjective reasons (which are not in concrete and could change this time next year) and then I’ll open the forum and discussion to all of you! This series we’ll be delving into a variety of topics and issues (like what I have already listed), so stay tuned for the upcoming weeks.
Today we’ll be talking about my top (favourite) 10 solo worship artists over the past 10 years (as well as songs from them that made them my favourite artist!), seeing that this site is a music review website first and foremost! So without further ado… here’s my top 10 worship artists (in reverse order)- bands are coming later on, same with favourite artists (based on songs) for other genres.
