    I think it's pretty interesting that a Christian contemporary rock band is on this list. Casting Crowns holdin' down the number 19 spot. They actually turned me on to another similar band called Third Day - their southern neighbors, Third Day is from Georgia. Maybe they'll be the next Christian rock band to make this list.
