Dennis Quaid sings on the soundtrack of “Great Balls Of Fire” — a duet with Jerry Lee Lewis. He’s pretty good.

I definitely won’t hear him in this “Imagine” movie. I like rock music. I like true Christian music. I hate cheesy contemporary Christian music, so will avoid the film.

That would be a mistake, the movie did not play that much of what you call “cheesy contemporary Christian music”. It was much more a story about the redemptive love of Christ.

Yeah, well, apparently the test audiences did not click with the Gregorian Chant.

Try the link at post 39. Quaid’s song is not cheesy Christian pop; it’s old-fashioned American country music.

I see that everyone piled on your comment just a bit. What I want to know is if you’ve ever heard the song - and/or even know anything about the story?

Here is the song:
