dc Talk is my favorite band of all time! I first heard them when I was in 6th grade and they were instantly my favorite band. They put out five full length albums, one live album, one remix album, and for some weird reason they put out two greatest hits albums. They took a break (according to them they didn’t break up…they are just on an intermission) a few years ago to pursue solo careers.
dc Talk is the biggest selling band in Christian music history. Their biggest album was Jesus Freak and it went double platinum (2 million copies sold).
Here’s the deal…they have been gone for so long there are whole throngs of people who don’t have a fat clue who they are. They are basically a pop/rock/rap band…except there is nothing basic about them unless you count writing really catchy songs.
Do you remember dc Talk? If so what is your favorite dc Talk song? If not here is a list of my all time favorites and what album they were from.
- So Help Me God – Jesus Freak
- Jesus Is Just Alright – Free at Last
- Supernatural – Supernatural
- Colored People – Jesus Freak
- Say the Words (Now) – Intermission The Greatest Hits
- Time Is… – Free at Last
- Dive – Supernatural
- In The Light – Jesus Freak
- Consume Me – Supernatural
- My Will – Intermission The Greatest Hits
- Since I Met You – Supernatural

- My Friend (So Long) – Supernatural

tough call… Jesus Freak, In The Light, and Supernatural will always be up there on my list… but I always loved “Like It, Love It, Need It” from the Jesus Freak album
In the Light is a great song… Time is… for nostalgic reasons, but what made DC Talk great and Christian music palatable is the wildly successful Jesus Freak and so it has to be my favorite.
