SongSelect and Online Bible Setup

[Karen39]

We used to have the songselect disc years ago, but it was so old I never even used it. I used to just get the songs ahead of time from CCLI. I also purchased the deluxe version of online bible in order to have access to all of the different versions. At the time, it probably cost me $75.00 or so.

I have most of the SSP files I created. If you want, I can send you a DVD or CD of them. I "think" that is legal?

[Mr. Lightman]

Hey Karen, thanks for the reply! Good to hear from you.

The church has a CCLI license, and also a subscription to CCLI's SongSelect lyrics service. This church doesn't do most of the songs that FBCM did, so it probably wouldn't be worth the trouble to send me the files. Thanks for the offer, though. I'm okay with simply importing the songs each week, and after I build up a good list of them I probably won't even have to do much of that.

[Karen39]

Yeah, that's what I did when I was there. After a while, you never have to import them from CCLI. Let me know if you have any other questions. What type of music do they sing?

[Mr. Lightman]

Well, we have three different services: Traditional, Contemporary, and Blended (or as I call it, the Variety Show). As you can probably guess, the traditional service consists entirely of hymns, and the contemporary consists of all the newest worship songs that all the cool kids are listening to on their fancy iPods... The blended service is a very awkward and interesting-to-watch effort at combining the two.

You just haven't experienced a church service until you've rocked out to the Newsboys' "I Am Free" on the church organ...

[Karen39]

Hahaha, that's hilarious! At FBCM they sing, "I am Free", but it is with a band. They don't have a band where we are currently attending, but they will use tracts if it is a song like that. Then again, they don't sing songs like that.

I attemp to open a CCLI and i'm asked about church copyright. What is that?.
Is there a way i can access a song database. I bought straight media shout4 and have typed in all my new songs so far. I am tired. Can someone help me/

Song Select
I live in Jamaica but i am forced to say i am from another major country. Then after selecting USA I am asked about ZIP code.
I just want to access a song data base. Why does it take so much effort?

I would contact CCLI to see about using their products out of country.

Copyright laws can get very tricky.
