Their blend is PHENOMINAL. If you listen really hard, you can hear him when it's just the trio at 0:54, but he's sandwiched inbetween Paul and David, so it's quite hard!

One doppelganger you guys have missed is Paul Phoenix :: Robbie Keane (Irish soccer player). And although I've been watching/listening to this song for several years, today was the first time that I noticed the title is "Down TO the River..." while the lyrics are "Down IN the river..." Weird.

@schafernewman - That is why music is a universal language. While it's an "American" song, anyone can sing it. I'm a music major in college and everything I sing by Mozart, Bach, Haydn, etc. isn't "American." I'm singing about that culture's traditions, events, heartbreak, and joy.

@TheChange1961 not sure how that make isaiah a gospel really tho it is foreshadowing of the gospel in essance but the gospels by deffinition are the 1st four books of the new testiment which is what i was reffering to. ur making a slight assumption here that i implied that theres a "right" way of baptism i would say thats not the case and yes we are baptized by the holy spirit but this emersion baptism is simply a visual commitment almost like a pact in a way

@TheChange1961 isaiah 66:17 is not part of the gospels...prayer is to be said in private but is not wrong done in public as well on top of private prayers (which are neccessary) furthermore baptism is not prayer its a sign of commitment to christ. this song is a followers private prayer combined with their telling of their baptism. i suggest u should look further into what the gospel is with all due respect and btw very good referencing just make sure u arent prooftexting
