Howdeedoo?!
First of all, I need to thank Sunny for giving me this idea. You can read her opinions on the Fan Awards HERE.
And then if wondering what K-LOVE and Fan Awards are, I’ll tell you. K-LOVE is a Christian radio station that our family listens to. You can find your station HERE. And then HERE is the Fan Award site. But I’ll explain more about the Fan Awards. Each year since 2013 K-LOVE has awards they give artists, except the people (“fans”) nominate artists and then K-LOVE posts the people who were nominated the most times and the people vote on the winners. There are several categories such as Best Song, Female Artist of the Year, Male Artist of the Year, etc. etc. Anywho, ONWARD!
I will say who won, who I would have nominated, and then who I would have voted for since I didn’t actually nominate or vote for any one.
Male Artist of the Year
Who won: Chris Tomlin
I would have nominated: Matthew West
Who I would have voted for: Matthew West
I really only like Waterfall and maybe Jesus Loves Me out of Chris Tomlin’s songs and I am not quite sure why he is so popular. Matthew West has great songs and if you have seen any K-LOVE videos, you can tell he has a sense of humor. Here is a video of him pretending to be Toby Mac.

Female Artist of the Year
Who won: Francesca Battistelli
Who I would have nominated: JAMIE GRACE!!!
Who I would have voted for: JAMIE GRACE!!!
Francesca has a pretty voice, but I really don’t like her song Holy Spirit :|. Where as Jamie Grace… IS AWESOME! WHOO HOO! GOTTA LOVE JAMIE’S SONGS! *Ahem* (My pinkie hurts from pressing down shift.)
__________________________
Artist of the Year
Who won: For King & Country
Who I would have nominated: JAMIE GRACE OR MERCYME!
Who I would have voted for: MERCYME!!!
I do like For King & Country, But I like others better.
_____________________
Group/Duo of the Year
Who won: For King & Country
Who I would have nominated: MERCYME!!! or Audio Adreniline
Who I would have voted for: MERCYME!!!
For King & Country has some great songs like Fix My Eyes, but MercyMe has better. For example, FLAWLESS, Greater, All of Creation, Shake, Beautiful, Move… I could go on and on. Audio Adreniline is a great band. I LOVE their new song Out of the Fire. I was surprised (and my brother wasn’t even though he LOVES that band) that nobody nominated AA.
__________________________
Song of the Year
Who won: Newsboys’ “We Believe”
Who I would have nominated: Jamie Grace’s ‘Hold Me’
Who I would have voted for: MercyMe’s ‘Greater’
I love the Newsboys. Their song ‘God’s Not Dead’ is awesome. But I am a strong supporter of MercyMe and Jamie Grace. I would have nominated MercyMe’s ‘Flawless’ had it been out at the time people were nominating. FLAWLESS IS THE BEST SONG IN THE WORLD! (according to me right now :))
______________________
Worship Song of the Year
Who won: Lauren Daigle’s ‘How Can It Be?
Who I would have nominated: Matt Redman’s ‘You Never Let Go” (Which K-LOVE is playing as I type)
Who I would have voted for: Chris Tomlin ‘Jesus Loves Me’
I don’t love that many worship songs, and Lauren Daigle’s song How Can It Be is not my favorite. I don’t really even like Chris Tomlin’s ‘Jesus Loves Me’ very much, but since the others weren’t my favorites either I would have voted him. Although I do like Matt Redman’s ‘You Never Let Go’. It might be because this was a song we sang in a musical that my siblings and I were a part of in our homeschool co-op.

Who I would have nominated: ?
Who I would have voted for: ?
I haven’t ever seen a live show. I’ve seen one on a video, but I seriously don’t know.

So there you have it! If you’re still here after all those words you know my opinions on a whole lot of songs and artists!
Can you tell which my top two artists are?
Megan, this was awesome! I really enjoyed reading this. And I can tell that your favorite artists are MercyMe and Jamie Grace (who are both fantastic!). I thought it was cool how you added the “who I would have nominated” category. 🙂

Oh, by the way, I like Audio Adrenaline, too. (I LOVE their song Believer!) But I haven’t heard any of their new songs, and I heard they replaced their lead singer which kind of turns me off, so…
*Sunny
P.S. I agree with everything you said about Chris Tomlin. Some of his songs are good, but why is he so popular?!?! Why not give someone else a turn??

“More Than You Think I Am” by Danny Gokey is on now. What do you think of him? I think he’s alright, but sometimes he sounds like he’s shouting in his songs. 😉
