    Happy 2024 everyone. This week we take a look at Jonathan Young's song Wolf Within. This song is not that complex of a song - and in many ways could probably be made better by being longer - but overall has many qualities that show why it deserved to be number 3 on the iTunes list of metal songs during the week it came out, as well as number 8 on Metal Hammer's "The 10 best new metal songs you need to hear right now". We look at this song from its instrumentation, vocals, lyrics and how it relates or doesn't to the bible. So join us this week as we learn more about his song.

    Try That In A Small Town: Really This Is A Controversial Song?

    In this episode of Use Your Words, we look at the "controversial" song that has sparked a heated debate surrounding racist references, lynching, and sundown towns in music. In fact the song is so "evil" that it was even pulled off of Country Music Television cable channel rotation due to the evils that they said were contained in the song - but is it really as bad as they say?Pundits were also quick to point out that the singer is anti a lot of socially popular things as well - claiming that he is an "evil" person - but how much of that is true and real - and how much of it is just projection because they don't like the politics of the singer? Also - is it really a bad thing for people to be good and defend their neighbors? What about if the person that is your neighbor is someone that you disagree with? Why would it be bad for us to go back to living with a small town mindset?Use Your Words podcast is passion project of two people from Southeastern Wisconsin.

It charted highly in the UK (3,1) and relatively high in the US (34,40) and is meant to be an anti-drug anthem. Although the song was inspired by a dream of Jesus looking intoxicated, the author says that it was not meant to be controversial or insulting song. Venby is one of a few female drum and bass artists and although only her second song appears to show that in the general world, she will have a very strong career - even if Aaron and Paul may have their own thoughts on the song.Use Your Words podcast is passion project of two people from Southeastern Wisconsin.
