Analysis Of A Christian Rock Band: Rainbow
A Christian rock band called Rainbow is taking the millenials in China by storm and is using its music and popularity to share the gospel to people across the country.
In an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) News, Rainbow lead singer Uncle Bing recalled how only a few people knew about the band when it was formed in 2012. However, they were propelled to stardom with the help of a national talent show, and now the band is traveling from one city to another and is bound in unity by their faith in Jesus amid the trials and loneliness they encounter along the road.
“Money used to keep me busy, and I barely had time for anything else,” Uncle Bing told CBN News in an interview. “Exhaustion and traveling were part of my life.

    The song that represents me from the Husky Band playlist would be Uprising. It’s a little difficult to put the “how” into words, as the words of the song only represent me a little, but the musical journey it takes you on is what I think describes myself. First and foremost, many people take others based on first impressions. I can easily be described as a quiet and awkward person, and for a lot of people they don’t see those as qualities that can succeed - especially in a position that aims to make sure the crowd is pumped. But look where I am now, I’m a third year in my second year as squad leader and planning to audition for section leader - something I’m sure many people wouldn’t have expected in my rookie year. I’m still incredibly quiet, but it just goes to…

    Oceans is overall a top-line song rather than a bottom-line one. This is because the focus of the song is on God’s blessings on a more personal note. It is about trusting God on a deeper level and moving forward in you relationship with him. Something I have always gotten from it is that the more you trust and give up to God, the more room he has to do miracles. I choose this song because, to put it simply, I love it. Oceans is a beautiful song with a great melody and a wonderful meaning and is easily one of my favorite worship songs if not my favorite. It references Jesus and Peter in the storm in Mathew 14.…
