Thank you to everyone who voted for their favourite song of the last year, nearly 60 of you voted which is a fantastic response!
So, without further ado, let’s get down to the results:
In first place, with 28% of the vote, and the winner by quite some way…
Never Once by Matt Redman.
A fantastic song that really seems to have connected well in church, singing about God’s faithfulness is a really good way to connect with God, and judging by your votes you seem to agree!
This song is from Matt Redman’s album, 10,000 Reasons, if you like this one then do yourself a favour and pick up the album, it’s without a doubt one of my favourite albums of the year.
In second place in the poll, and deserving of an honourable mention, is Furious by Brian Johnson & Jeremy Riddle (17%), another fantastic song and probably my personal favourite I think.
These two songs were a long way clear of all the others in the voting, but it was nice to see that every single song managed at least one vote. Somehow even the Red Hot Chilli Peppers managed a vote! (thank you Mr Jeffrey Gill for that one!)

Very cool! I’ll have to check that CD out. He does write tremendous stuff. And glad RHCP got some kudos.
