New Ooberfuse song used by Nationwide Vocations Framework
BRITISH electro pop band Ooberfuse have been asked by the Catholic
Church to support the Nationwide Vocations Framework which seeks to
instruct young people into finding vocation in life. The song "Call My
Name" is released on 29th May. Said the group's Hal St John, "It was a
challenge to write a song that captures the essence of something as
sacred and as intimate as being spoken to and summoned by God in the
deepest recesses of our hearts. When God speaks to us he does so in a
strange and other worldly language that it is sometimes hard if not
altogether impossible to render into intelligible words. His gentle
yet persistent call cuts through the clamour and roar of contemporary
life treading as softly as dove's footsteps. For some pop music is
part of the noise that drowns out the sound of divinity,
de-sensitising us to the transcendent. On the face of it, it seems
incongruous that pop music, especially dubstep, should be used to
heighten our awareness of God's call to each one of us."
