The Book of Genesis tells us that God created "the evening and the morning" on the third day. It's hard to say when is the best time to listen to this southern Christian rock act's rousing tunes, though morning is likely the best, as their anthemic alt-rock is filled with enough praise and worship to get even the most jaded listener through the day. In their 11-year recording history, the band has built up a loyal fanbase, won Dove and Grammy awards, and spent innumerable miles on the road. On Chronology, Vol. 1, Third Day looks back at the first half of their career with a dual CD/DVD disc with characteristic generosity. A handful of live and rare numbers round out new mixes of hits like "Forever" and "I've Always Loved You," while two of their most-loved early numbers, "My Hope Is You" and "Thief," have been entirely re-recorded. The DVD is the real meat here, with five early music videos, six live performances from the Dove shows, and excerpts from eight handheld videos made by fans, which all show how hard these guys can kick it. This is no paint-by-numbers best-of, but an awesome tribute that will satisfy devoted fans and the newly curious alike. --Mike McGonigal

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Compilation for the fans, March 31, 2007

By	Mark Edwards (Memphis, Tennessee United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although I'm a big Third Day fan, I bought this mainly for the DVD stuff and was quite pleased with the overall CD/DVD package (the DVD stuff is great for any fan). In fact, I was pretty shocked at how good this CD was. Before I purchased it, I wasn't excited to hear "remakes" of their old stuff; I have all of their albums on my iPod, so why would I need to hear it again? But I tell you what, I absolutely love the new mixes / remakes. For example, I liked how Thief was from their first album, but it wasn't a favorite of mine...something was missing. The new version of Thief on this CD is exactly what was missing. The new arrangement is what this song needed from day 1. I've listed to that song 5-10 times already while working around the house. And, the other songs are just as good. The mix of remakes, new takes, live ones, and rare ones are worth the investment.

If you're the least bit interested, pick it up...you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars pleasant suprise, March 27, 2007

By	Lisa1971 (Euless, TX) - See all my reviews

Ok so I am a fan of Third Day and have every album and have been a regular at their shows when they come to town but lately, I have been HOOKED on Hillsong United "United We Stand". So literally for the past month, that is the only cd I have listened to and today was my first break to listen to Third Day's latest and I can say that for all the songs, the little booklet and the DVD, it is an excellent bargain. Plus I love the new remix of Thief (my personal favorite) and My Hope is You is also a great new remix. This should defintely be in your collection if you are a Third Day fan. I don't know if a newcomer could really appreciate it though. I think that if you were newly introduced to them, one should go with Time & Offerings I & II first and then go back and get their other albums....Conspiracy #5 grew on me but once I finally "got" it, I loved it. Regardless, it is an excellent deal and nice suprises and hilarious video outtakes in the DVD. I don't think it is meant to be funny but I thought the video of Thai's first performance was funny and cute. Mac still looks the same but I reckon he will age nicely. I am so glad that they continue to make music that represents and glorifies God and our Saviour and I will continue to look forward to any Third Day creation in the years ahead!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome,Awesome,Awesome, March 30, 2007

By	Joseph B. Carter "JoeVacs4U" (Hickory, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have every Third Day CD, and almost didn't get this one because I figured it didn't have anything new on it. Boy , am I glad I didn't pass this one up! The DVD disc alone is worth the purchase price! And then the new version of Thief is a very nice addition. But I have to say my favorite new song ( which is not new. they recorded it in 1999, but never released it) is "Long Time Coming". That is an awesome song! If you like Third Day ( and who couldn't)You will love this song. And the other new/old song, "She Sings in Riddles", is very good too. This set is almost as good as seeing them live, and in one way it's better - You can put it on any time you want to.
