Stress (actual oTr content) and the Wall Street Journal

[Sobriqet at webtv_net (So Briquet)]

Sarah Herr said- 
"oTr is definitely a stress reliever. Karin's voice is just so
soothing."

I can't dispute that, but, oTr seems to o out its way to give listeners
stress, as well. USENET's rec.music.christian has always been full of
posts from people saying that they had to be in "just the right mood,"
and that they could only take so much. Maybe they need to surround
themselves with a certain audio MATRIX, that's overwhelmingly positive.

There is a lot of brutal truth, the kind that gives headaches, in oTr
lyrics. If we really, really  love people, they can really, really hurt
us, even passively. Yesterday, I watched both versions of Shadowlands,
ABC's Arkansas Chidren's Hospital I.C.U., and hours of news, unless we
really distance ourselves, the everyday suffering of almost anyone can
get to us.  

Both the lyrics, and the music of oTr seem to get into a lot of nooks
and crannies, and there is some tenuous balance attained.   

Check out last Friday's Wall Street Journal for its favourable look at
