"Just because a song doesn’t resonate with you, doesn’t mean that it doesn’t resonate with someone else."

This is a two-way street, is it not? Whether a song resonates with someone or not simply is not the point. Whether or not the music fulfills the role of singing the Mass (and not merely singing at Mass) is the point.

Those in the Church who despised the "bad old days" often bring up the canard of old ladies praying the Rosary instead of praying the Mass. It strikes me that many of the selections do not seem to correspond to the prescribed texts of the Mass at the entrance, offertory and communion. So, the music committee is advocating the musical equivalent of 'praying the Rosary' at Mass by singing 'at Mass' instead of singing the Mass. In effect, they force their devotional music on the rest of us. How richly ironic. At least the rosary-clutching church ladies kept quiet and to themselves!
