Undo makes a big splash for Rush of Fools
|
(NASHVILLE, TENN) – The rapidly climbing debut single, “Undo,” from the new Midas Records band Rush Of Fools recently went “live” on iTunes, following the song’s eighth week atop Christian radio charts and a consistently increasing position on R&R’s AC Indicator Chart, this week reaching #6. In its first week on iTunes, the song ranked in the Top 10 songs on the Christian iTunes list. In addition to their success on iTunes, Rush Of Fools is also being recognized by MySpace as one of the Top 100 Christian Artists taking the #47 position on the hugely popular online networking site.
“Undo,” which speaks of personal spiritual forgiveness, reconciliation and restoration, has created heartfelt listener comments from iTunes and MySpace users alike. Comments such as, “Wow is all I can say! I was driving home after a long day and heard this song as it came on the radio and it moved me in a way very few songs ever have. I went to MySpace everyday and listened to the song until it came out in iTunes” from this iTunes user re-emphasis both the song’s lyrical depth and Rush Of Fools’ momentous impact on Christian music. With over 13 million total audience impressions over the past week, “Undo” ushers in Rush Of Fools’ progressive worship sound and introduces the debut band to a very receptive nationwide listener base, receiving strong reviews and in-depth responses from around the world.
“I just wanted to let you know that your music has been a miracle for me and my family. We have been going through a pretty rough time and when we heard your music we were convinced it was a God send. You spoke to us in a way that will never be forgotten and for that I will always be truly thankful. I hope that you guys get all you want out of life because you saved ours. Thank you for all you've done, you’re fighting for us too and that will be worth more than you will ever know. You allowed us a new beginning.” - one of the Rush Of Fools’ online network community of friends.
“Undo is the theme song of our lives,” says Rush of Fools’ band member and co-founder, Kevin Huguley. “We are all, at times in our lives, hypocrites and prodigals. Countless times, we have spoken one way and walked another. Christ is truly the ONLY one that can turn us around, pick us up and put us back on our feet again.”
