5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing Christian Rock Music, June 21, 2005

By	Petar Vodogaz "Commissioner" (Sydney, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I mainly brought this CD after listening to the radio version of 'I Believe' and 'You Are Mine', which are two of the melodious and glorious songs I have heard from this genre. It is a CD where the lyrics outshine the sound of the music. And the lead vocalist attests to this, brings a clarity to the music and the messages. The themes that run through this album is the faith in God and being proud of calling ones' self Christian and saying proudly "I Believe in God" as the lyrics say in the song "I Believe".
I have since listening to 'Wire' purchased the whole range of Third Day's albums. The music is uplifting and at the same time makes the listener think and if they wish sing along to the songs. My belief in God is stronger listening to Third Day and I thank the band for that.
The song 'You Are Mine', is simply enchanting and I shed several tears listening to the beautiful lyrics sung at a exceptional emotional level.
Any fan of Across The Sky will love Third Day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for Spoon Fed Baby Christians, May 19, 2004

By	Dustin M. Stamper (Whiteland, IN United States) - See all my reviews

I have read several reviews that don't concern the musicianship, quality, or playability of this album. It's all about wanting to hear the Lord's name. That's what the "Offerings" albums were for.

Several people have stated that the words lack spirituality. If you can't "feel" God in this album, then you need to be spoon fed or have someone else help you figure it out.

Just one example -- in the first song, "'Til The Day I Die", the lyrics say ~ "Nobody's ever gonna love you like I am".

Hmmmm...who do you think "I" is? How does that make the song un-spiritual? Does Mac and the boys have to spell it out for you like this ~ "Nobody's ever gonna love you like The Lord Jesus Christ is" ?

Remember the quentissential Third Day song, "Love Song" that is soooo spiritual? Ever remember them saying anything about God? It's IMPLIED!

My point is that you need to think for yourself, see Third Day in concert, see all the good that they do outside of their recorded music and in their families before you write a review that dissuades others from listening.

Use your brains and imagination.

God rocks and so does this album!

5.0 out of 5 stars 3rdDay -- perfect blend of spirituality and musical talent!, October 26, 2004

By	Paradox (Seoul) - See all my reviews

I truly enjoyed "Time" (and still do), and was thrilled with "Come Together." But each had their weaknesses. "Time" was too low-keyed, while "Come Together" was too pop. (Hey, I love both CDs, but there are a few songs on each that just bring them down a bit.) But "Wire" seems to have gotten the recipe just right. When Third Day someday receives a Lifetime Achievement Award, this is one of the albums that will be a highlight. This band is consistently on the mark with lyrics, music, and delivery. And "Wire" delivers.
