Well, we have a new #1 song this week in Rachael Belman, "Never the Same" Congratulations Rachael. Also there were a couple of songs that have been on the charts a very long time, "Held by Love" by Ed Petersen , Got a New life by "T" Roy Taylor, and Desires of my Heart" by Pat Skinner. All three were great songs that were on the charts from 6 weeks to 12 weeks. Nice run of all three songs.. Its songs like these that sets the standard, raises the bar, here at IGA. and its good to see that.
With three that came off the chart 3 new one came on ... so the chart is always fresh each week. We also have a Real Bullet Song offer from Gary Weldon Sr. Gary is well known in the IndieGospelArtists picture. He has many songs to his credit that are listed in his page. Please check them out.. But this one song that he entered into the mix. was so different that I had to listen to it twice back to...
Well ... This week I am going to do something a little different.... I still need a Bullet Song for this week! So I am opening up the position to all of You .... Please submit a song that you think is a good song to be the BULLET SONG of the Week on JB's Top Ten Songs. It can even be one of your own songs that you think deserves a shot to be on the List. Of course if it has already been on the chart it doesn't count. Just send your choice to jban1946@bellsouth.net .. and let's see what comes in... I will announce the New Song and who submitted it as soon as I can. I'd like to get all the suggestions in today if I can.... OK, Now Let's go on with this weeks Top Ten List.
1. I Depend On You by Vince Brown.. Congratulations Vince ... I really like the smoothness of the song.. good...
Interviews with the Artists of The Top Ten Songs - Gary Weldon Sr.
By James Banfield's Top 20 Songs, 2011-06-01
"TELL THE DEVIL !" by Gary Weldon Sr. (Currently #2 on the Top Ten Songs)
Thanks James!
I think this is one of the most powerful songs God has blessed me to produce! Many are afraid of the beginning ! I was speaking from Revelation, It was recorded in reverse ( AS YOU HAVE GUESSED). Only 1 person has guessed as to the scripture ! I was so surprised when a 70 yr old lady told me , that at first the song scared her, but after she overcome her fear ,and listened to the whole song she found power & strength to overcome the adversary ( the Enemy & that ) and she rides around with it at full volume so others may hear ! Through this song I have tried to let others know that the battle has been won ! Jesus paid the price ! Victory is ours to claim ! But we must " Put on the whole Armor of God! FOR THE ENEMY IS OUT TO DESTROY US
Thanks for your insite.
...here it is Thursday already and Next Weeks Top Ten plus the Artist of the Week, Bullet Song, and (2) Honorable Mention Songs of the week are already done... and I cant wait...
We'll have a new Number 1 which is an incredible piece of work, about 5 songs that moved in the chart, this weeks Bullet Song "Cover Me" by the Down Family moved up, The Honorable Mention Song. "From the Cross To Your Heart" moved into the Top Ten, The Artist of the Week coming up (6-5-11) will be Devora Clark, Wait til you hear the song that I selected.

So Get Ready to check out the New JB's Top Ten Songs of the Week for 06-05-11 this saturday... What an incredible list of songs on this whole list of songs... I got say it, Hey Ken Rich! The Bar has...
We have a new number #1 song now. That's not to say that last weeks number 1 wasn't good. It just means that the whole list of the Top Ten is really good. From top to bottom. There is even an instrumental that touches my heart. David Kocijan from Europe plays an anointed sax. Abide With Me just touches the spirit and you feel the love of Christ through his Sax. Watch out for the goosebumps when he goes up in key. Just beautiful. "Tell The Devil" last weeks Number 1 song by Gary Weldon Sr. tells it all. WE have the power to tell that Devil where to get off. "You Make This Place Wonderful" by Jimmy Workman and the band White Stones have a really good solid sound. The lyrics are solid too.
"Here Am...
Can you believe its Sat. Again! and Time for JB's Top Ten Songs for the Week to be released.
Congratulations to Jimmy Workman and Whitestones for having the number 1 song of the week. "You Make This Place Wonderful" yeah I like it... Listen to the intro.. the acoustic guitar vs the bass and synthizer bass, the sharp snare, the bass drum how it comes in then Jimmy comes in ... your ready to receive the lyrics... Hey.. somethings wrong... I can hear the words, clearly.. And when the flute comes in it just adds to the whole mix. Wow... You guys did it... Solid.. Congrats on a great song.
There are many more changes in the list this week. some new songs, some that have been on for a while and some that have dropped off. Stop by and give a listen to the new list... I think you will enjoy it immensely.
Blessings to all

One of our Indie Artists asked me this week, How do I do JB's Top Ten song List? He, being the first to ask that question after 9 months of doing JB's Top Ten. So I took a few minutes and Answered him. I thought I would also post that answer here...
Hi , after doing this 9 months now, someone has finally asked how I do the Top Ten ... I guess Now is as good a time as any to explain how I do it. Even though I have left a message in the blog on the TOP TEN page I think One person has actually "submitted" a song for me to listen to. No one really writes me and says, "Hey James I heard a song the other day I think you should check it out" no one writes. So Here is how I do it.
1. I have a list of 10 Songs Plus
2. A Bullet Song (a song that I think might be a hot one- a good one for the list)
3. usually I pick 1 song for an Honorable Mention. Sometimes in my search for the bullet song and the honorable mention I might run across another good...
I just wanted to let everyone know that JB's Top Ten Songs of the Week are loaded up and ready to be heard. Blessings to you all this day... amen
