“That’s such a great hook, Give Through Devotion, and a great idea!”

Rick Goodpaster Jr. - Songwriter

“Listening and loving You Need Love”

“So come, join Mark Lajoie on this remarkable musical journey, and let the mesmerizing sounds of “You Need Love” transport you to a world where love and authenticity reign supreme.”

“Guy, this track is amazing. My team and I can't stop listening to the song again just for fun. Your track will leave our listeners awestruck; you are a talented person.”

“TEN Rating! You have good control over high notes; that’s a great thing. Overall, the performance is too good. We just enjoyed it. Wow, I feel like I’m listening to the original singer. The hard work you put into this performance shows. All the best.”

Female listener, aged 33 - RN Crowd Review

“I have Nobody Else blasting right now. Such great music! Oh goodness! Let it Reign is amazing! [about the video]”

“Hi! I've had the most joy discovering your music this year. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you!”

Emily from Montreal - N1M

“The Perfect Song for a Changing World As Mark Lajoie emerges as a solo artist, the timing couldn’t be more perfect for his powerful message to resonate with a world in need. With “You Need Love,” he encapsulates the struggle of our time while offering a glimmer of hope. This song not only introduces the musical persona of Mark Lajoie but also provides a beacon of light for those lost in the darkness. Through his genuine and urgent expression of love, he showcases the desperate need for connection and the triumphant hope found in a relationship with the divine.”

“The melodic hook lingers in the mind, echoing the enduring message of hope and love. The instrumentation is not only well-chosen but varied, with regard to tonal and timbral character. The uplifting nature of the clean electric guitar parts provides a great deal of ambiance thanks to their effective use of reverbs and delays whilst the timeless sound of the synth punctuates the music with a palpable feeling of purpose.”

“The vocals, infused with passion and conviction, serve as a conduit for the profound message embedded in the lyrics. The singer's voice resonates with sincerity, delivering verses that explore the universal human struggle with purpose and the pursuit of love. The narrative unfolds like a heartfelt conversation, inviting the listener to reflect on their own journey of faith and personal redemption. The chorus, a crescendo of emotive vocals and soaring instrumentation, becomes a rallying cry for those grappling with the challenges of life. The repeated refrain "You need love, don't throw your life away" serves as both a plea and an affirmation, encapsulating the central theme of the track.”

“One of Mark’s latest creations, “You Need Love,” delves into the isolating effects of our modern, virtual-centric lives. In a world consumed by self-centered pleasure, pride, and anger, the song serves as a desperate plea to the lost souls searching for meaning. The singer poignantly directs their attention towards the one true answer – a genuine relationship with the Creator and a commitment to love unconditionally. By emphasizing the importance of connecting with the divine and fostering meaningful relationships in the physical realm, “You Need Love” shines a light on the path to finding purpose and experiencing the love that transcends all.”

“Overall Impression Boasting a towering level of both conviction and musical passion, Living Waters' empowering Christian rock anthem "You Need Love (Don't Throw Your Life Away)" aims to treat listeners to an upbeat and hope-filled listening experience that will both energize and inspire. With a compelling and universally relatable theme at its core and committed performances powering its songwriting, "You Need Love" displays a great deal of both heart and spirit, resulting in a piece of music that not only has a lot to say but acts as a musical vessel that navigates the complexities of faith, love, and redemption.”

“Hi, amazing - if I didn't have to get up in the morning, I would stay here all night to listen to the rest of your songs. You have done a great job - I am normally iffy about people's recommendations in my feed, lol - but I really enjoyed your music. You have a talent, and I look forward to hearing more of your original stuff - Well, I had a bit more than just 'amazing' to say, lol. Keep it up, will be visiting more soon.”

Anna - N1M

“A very loving track, cheers!!!! Cool track!!!! [hearts] {about "You Need Love" video}”

“‘Great Rock Road’ serves as a sonic time capsule, allowing us to experience the spirit of those exhilarating performances. With every note, every lyric, and every rhythm, the song captures the essence of Living Waters’ musical journey. It’s a powerful ode to the unwavering belief that guides their path, a celebration of their collective efforts, and a testament to the enduring power of music. {an excerpt from the amazing article about Great Rock Road}”

Jacqueline Jax - AVA Live Radio

“A Journey Beyond Sound Imagine yourself transported back in time, to an era where every weekend was filled with the electrifying energy of a Living Waters concert. Picture a group of musicians, united by their love for music and their commitment to spreading the message of faith. Each Sunday night, they would gather, honing their craft, rehearsing tirelessly, and perfecting the harmonies that would resonate in the hearts of their listeners. {an excerpt from the amazing article about GRR}”

Jacqueline Jax - AVA Live Radio

“WOWZZAA you guys ROCK ⚡️⚡️⚡️ superb top three. I'll be back for more. Love your Faith guys. RESPECT ❤️”

“Very impressive, excellent, creative content! (about the "Great Rock Road" video)”

“I loved! do more penetrating songs like "Lonely Dancer SINGLE" because it touches the soul and elevates the spirit, congratulations, thank you very much Living Waters. [I am happy to] comment on your music, I'm the singer Clênio Marques and I feel very honored and proud of that. May God continue to bless you, peace!”

“Lonely Dancer is a lovely song, great vocals. Awesome work!”

“It is such a powerful song. I still get goosebumps, hearing you sing [it]. {about "Cast Your Soul"}”

Sylvia - Mark's sister!

“...love the party feel in Love in Arms-great performances guys!!”

“All credits for you on your excellent track and video, A Stand of Courage. I love the track: the production and composing reminds me of the early days of prog-rock with names like Kansas and Styx. Well thought vocal lines & harmonies and a couple of tracks analog recording. This is a great prog-rock track with a nice retrospective video on people who stood up in their faith! And, wow! love the old skool Oberheim Prophet keyboard lines; it's so iconic. You guys have a great band and legacy.”

“A Stand of Courage” is a testament to the power of faith and the pursuit of a vision. This song, with its inspiring lyrics and captivating melodies, showcases the journey of one man’s childhood dream coming to fruition. As it reverberates through the speakers, it prompts us to reflect upon the deep sense that our lives are meant to be lived with courage and devotion, imitating the One who created us. Let “A Stand of Courage” be a beacon of inspiration, reminding us to...live our lives in union with [God].”

“It must have been an inspiration from the Holy Spirit that blessed a [young] child with such a stunning creativity. This is a beautiful song illustrated by a meaningful video that reminds us of courageous saints who boldly stand by Jesus' side. Thank you also for mentioning Maximilian Kolbe, a great defender of the Catholic Church against outrageous evil. May this be a great inspiration for all of us living in present times. [about "A Stand of Courage" video]”

“Splendid and luminous! (about "A Stand of Courage" video)”

Jennie - N1M

“Hi! Your song "When Sunday Comes" is hauntingly great. Major kudos. Take care.”

Emily - Fan from Montreal, Canada

“It’s quite gorgeous as a Christian rock song, and I’ve had a lot of people write in about it and literally love it and they wanted to know where I got it from. It’s a song that was used as a dedication in a new marriage (in Uganda) as the bride and groom were renewing their vows, and it really was a big hit at the wedding, Mark said. I would imagine it would be; there’s not too many moments in life that are that special. We usually go through a lot of hours of struggle or worry or something like that but when you are able to give joy to a new couple just starting their lives together with hope and you’re able to facilitate that with a beautiful song, that needs to be celebrated for sure. [Jacqueline Jax introducing our song, "We're Gonna Stay", for The Songwriters Showcase February 2023]”

Cody Stowe - Catholic Music Insiders

“Living Waters ‘Hail Mary’ takes your breath away! It’s not often that you get to listen to two versions of a song as an instrumental first and finally with a finished vocal. The addition of the vocal is spectacular making the track even more uplifting. This song glows with a powerful message delivered in a lovely inspiring way. Much enjoyed. [Double review of both instrumental & vocal versions]”

“Hail Mary (instrumental) version is lovely. It’s a breath of fresh air with commanding instrumentals and powerful expression. The musicians are clearly of high level talent and are committed to their craft. I love how the track unfolds slowly but in perfect time as to keep the relaxing vibe while holding the interest of the listener. [Review of Instrumental version]”

“5 STARS 'bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti bravissima complimenti' A review for "City of Joy"”

Antonio Cascino - Composer from Bologna, Italy

“’Living Waters delivers a majestic, epic tearjerker, then pull a complete U-turn and dive into funk rock grooves with ascending solos that galvanize the senses.’ (about our two-song EP, "Alive Again")”

Best EP - Christian Contemporary 2015 - One Awards Program

“Vocals: Strength Lyrics: Strength Instrumental Performance/Execution: Strength Melody/Rhythm: Strength Arrangement/Flow: Strength Recording Quality/Overall Mix: Strength”

“Strongest Point(s): While the instrumental work is a clear stand out in Sing to Jesus, it is the lyrics and melody that will likely have most listeners coming back for more. The catchy chorus proves that there is yet another way to sing Alleluia, and it is just as memorable as you would hope. The verses point to hope and a brighter future in faith, and give the tune the fuel it needs to match the energy of the chorus. Area(s) of Improvement: None, nicely done.”

“Overall Impression: Christian rockers Living Waters have released their song Sing to Jesus. Starting out slow and stern, Sing To Jesus calls out the vulnerability of man before lighting an uplifting spark of praise and inspiration. While based in faith, the tune pulls clearly from Classic Rock from the 70's. The inclusion of 12-string guitars, edgy riffs, and fine lead work are a testament to the band's Rock roots. As the tune progresses, listeners are treated to new instrumental layers and textures. These are placed smartly and subtly at important sections, and increase the excitement with clapping, punk guitar work, and cascading vocals. Overall, Sing to Jesus by Living Waters is an exciting and uplifting Christian Rock tune that will bring listeners to their feet with their hands and voices raised up.”

“Cool Song! Really good composition. It's a song with a deep message behind it, that touches something in the listener. Keep on doing your kind of music.... [Review of City of Joy]”

Judith Muller - German Acoustic Pop Artist

“Inspirational!! I like the originality of your work. Strong message and creativity is a big plus. Good production, i can hear some good vocals to this, good job on the final mix-down. I can tell you have your heart and soul into what you do. Keep on pushing and never give up or get distracted in pursuing the dream of making it. I like the instrumental blend of sounds with the vocals and the production on the track is good. Keep up the great work! Peace!!! [Review of City of Joy]”

Runnen Rebel - Hip Hop Artist

“Living Waters is a fun listen. Certainly unique. Has a jam feel with all the overdriven guitar riffing waves, super progressive arrangement that leaves plenty of space for the vocals to shine, hard hitting drumming, imaginative lyricism, strong lead vox and a clean mix/master. Fun....I appreciate the artistry. (about Booze Blues Cruise)”

“I think this single is a gem for [the] Christian Rock community that should be heard and recognized for the true and honest classic energy that it has. (about "There's a Woman"!)”

Review - Indie Music Spin

“I’ve always been a big fan of music with unique intros, unusual guitar sounds and 60’s harmonies such as in California dreamin’ from The Mamas & The Papas or Norwegian Wood The Beatles. Living Waters grabbed my attention with their musicianship and arrangements on Christian Rock single ‘There’s a Woman’. It’s funny how a long intro with a hint of Eagles can still be a good thing in 2021 to a 60’s fan if you have a familiar ear to legendary bands of the past. This is probably why I understand where Living Waters wanted to take this song and why they made the choices that we hear now on the record. You can’t help but be impressed by the fact that they recorded this single in their community house basement.... (about "There's a Woman"!)”

Review - Indie Music Spin

“There’s a Woman by Living Waters is a 60’s Inspired Christian Rock Gem! This new single is REFRESHing and it makes me smile. [emphasis added!]”

ProgRockDan1 - IM Radio friend

““A beautiful, expressive, refreshing, heartfelt outpouring. Note to visitors of this pg: Living Waters has FORTY songs here, worth checking out ! Hard to pick a favorite, I'm thinking "Peter the Rock"? On "Nobody Else" the guitarist has obtained the precise tone of Tom Scholtz of Boston, I haven't heard anyone else do that in 35 yrs. Thumbs way up !”

Markke - - New York-based musician

“The arrangement is the traditional classic rock setup and it totally jams with confidence and pride. The piano and acoustic guitar fill in the middle nicely with some ornamentation and rhythmic accompaniment. The electric guitar gets to show off a bit with a few short solos that are busy and impressive. The guitar also gets to give some grit to the song by playing low with lots of distortion in a few of the verses. The vocals are warm and thrive in their mid-range zone, allowing anyone to sing along. The harmonies add a really nice texture as well to the vocals, especially in the chorus’ where a whole group of vocals are introduced. It really creates the sensation of togetherness. “Sing To Jesus” is a forgiving song that will bring the light of Jesus back into your life.”

““Sing To Jesus” is a crowd pleasing jam that is a heck of a lot of fun. There is something very endearing about this song as it’s truly welcoming and warm. It has a classic rock vibe that calls to mind the stylings of Neil Young and The Cars. The song is well arranged, and the vocals are sure to inspire anyone to sing along. This is the kind of song you want to see performed live so you can really feel it’s positive energy and chant the chorus with the band.”

“What a production! May the Lord wash us with His tidal wave of love! And in turn, let us pour that love upon others. [about the "Let It Reign" video]”

“Let It Reign – a rockin' altar call. This is awesome. The lyrics overflow with emotion. What a testimony to the transformative power of the Body of Christ. Well produced, well sung! I can see this being performed on stage. Thanks for sharing. [about the "Let It Reign" video]”

“WOW! I fell in love with your music! ! Sorry, that's sorta corny, but it's how I feel. I'm ur fan. I just forwarded your link to several friends. Will be buying your album. Keep it up, you have wonderful talent...good luck”

Karen - N1M

“I'm speechless. That is AWESOME!! Wow! I finally had a chance to watch it just now. Dad was here with me and we were both completely blown away. The composition is amazing. Reminds me of some of the symphonic metal bands I listen to (minus the heavy guitars lol) I love the orchestration, the layering of the vocals - everything! You really outdid yourself here.”

“FIVE STARS! This Christmas song is played live and in a modern style. Both the music, the beautiful singing, and the lyrics put me in such a good mood. The lyrics are expressed in such a way that we understand that Christmas is both about Jesus as a child, and as our great King and Saviour. Well done, Living Waters!! - a review of 'City of Joy (live)' the single”

Gabriele Pesce - Altriparty & Hypsidia Spotify Curator

““Living Waters has achieved a great direction for their songwriting with this song. I think it’s obscure for sure and probably won’t be understood by more commercial song curators but that doesn’t touch the brilliance of the content and shape of this song. I enjoy it more every time I hear it. Sure more could be done with the production and of course every song can be polished, this song to me is a remarkable Christian Classic already just as it is.“”

Stella - On-line fan in an email

“Those that grew up listening to the titans of Classic Rock and those that remember the earlier days of Living Waters career will find the tone and feel of Anna Post Writing to be irresistible, but the confluence of compositional attention to detail and the lyrical focus on good news through the Gospel are destined to draw in faithful listeners from all backgrounds! Really great stuff, thanks for sending it in!”

Jon Wright - Radio Airplay

“Really strong compositional elements at work here - the various rhythms and motifs fit together nicely and keep the song moving forward. Great instrumental tones, from the bright piano to the synth lines and all the way back to the nicely overdriven guitars. The bass player is incredible for the genre - really ramping up the rhythmic intensity without abandoning the pocket - and the lead vocals are classic and clear. This is excellent work! [review of "Anna Post Writing"]”

Jon Wright - Radio Airplay

“Living Waters lovingly carries the joyous tones of Classic Rock into the twenty-first century with their original hit, Anna Post Writing! A fictional narrative about a woman coming to accept and subsequently publish the gospel of Christ, Anna Post Writing features a wealth of viscerally exciting and delightfully surprising musical developments - all bound together with immense energy and a love of the craft.”

Jon Wright - Radio Airplay

"Anna Post Writing" - This deserves way more plays! The song is fire - Respect to you!

“Great rolling mid tempo guitar driven rock melody and a solid rhythm section create a good groove at the beginning. Love the when the song kicks it up to a fast tempo that is full of energy and great lyrics. Good stuff!" - about Sing to Jesus”

Reverbnation Reviewer - ReverbNation

“Great lyrical content that is sure to inspire a lot of listeners out there. Love the hand clapping group harmonies that really gives the song a big hook and puts it over the top" - about Light of the World”

Reverbnation Reviewer - ReverbNation

“Love the big sound and the heavy mid tempo progressive sounding rock groove that this song sounds like. The vocals sound like a progressive rock band too giving the song a big epic overall sound." Great stuff! - about Let It Reign!”

Reverbnation Reviewer - ReverbNation

“...."Light of the World"...starts off with some jangly sounding guitars as the vocals talk about how it's hard to see people really loving in this world. The chorus then takes a change of music direction with just some regular percussion which holds into the next verse when suddenly a honky tonk piano is introduced in the backing. This song just builds up and keeps on giving as it reminds us to look to Jesus because we are meant to be salt and light to the world. Again this song feels like a big production in a lively musical and the sound of it really gladdens the heart! Near the end there is some piano with a lead singer that just sounds like something Keith Green might have done! The end blends vocals to the lyrics "The Light Of The World" and it just sounds fantastic. I think I would listen to that song alone on repeat, there's just so much going on!”

“The band describe themselves as being in the "autumn of their years" and are quite self-deprecating, wondering if they still have it, and surprising themselves with what they have come up with. However there is a whole lot of creativity in this group that is still flowing through them, so they definitely shouldn't write themselves off just yet! The second half of this album has the stronger selection but there are striking images and things to think about and challenge you all the way through this album but it is definitely "Let It Reign" and "Light of the World" that really would have to be my two favourite tracks. This is a great album which has a light rock sound, praises Jesus and encourages us to do so too!”

Rob Allwright - One Man in the Middle

“I LOVE THESE PEOPLE AND THEIR DIVINE MUSIC♥”

"I love the arrangement, and the words! The words are heartfelt and make me feel warm inside, like my life is worth something! {about the studio version of "Sing to Jesus"}

“Good riffs, good songwriting, good music. Do What He Tells You To Do!”

“Light of the world, and Living Waters, you are a wonderful miracle ministry of His glory,. I've included "Glory" into my daily morning prayers, thank you so much for this beautiful tune that now accompanies me in my life. God bless you and your work”

“Great orchestration, songwriting and love the harmonies! Beautiful and inspiring!”

“Sounds like the Led Zeppelin riff for "Good Times, Bad Times" at the beginning. You sure got my attention. A most appropriate exhortation at the outset: "Change!" You are rockin' that Second Luminous Mystery – the Wedding at Cana – where Jesus turns plain water to wine at the behest of his mother, Mary. Good band sound. You have been around the block quite a few times. 40 years! Welcome to Top Catholic Songs. (Comment on "Do What He Tells You to Do")”

“Ahh - Anna Post. Perhaps, in my opinion, one of Living Waters' most "undersung" grooves, and perhaps one of the purest rockers. I found this one on tape while in college. A real showcase of the above-average Living Waters vocals in that chorus. Space for Tony to drive. The song that perhaps most deserves a pulsing lighting rig. The reason for Greg's high tops....”

Dave Babish - original member of the LW family

“Do What He Tells You To Do.... listen, repeat!”

“This is so catchy-I find myself humming it and singing "somebody rescue me" !!! excellent !!! (about "Booze Blues Cruise")”

You know God has had His hand on your band and the proof is not only in your music but in the age of the band. Wow! 39 yrs (1976) and still going strong! That's amazing. Best wishes to you guys and here's to another 39 years. God Bless!”

"Do What He Tells You to Do" has a great drive to it. ! I love the bluesy feel it has, and the horns are a nice surprise to the LW sound. You've still got your voice, too, Mark! I love that. I can definitely hear some U2 in there, a little Stevie Ray in some parts and even some Albert Collins.

Their sound is bringing the best of 70's and 80's major rock bands and dropping their music right in the center of anointed, Word-Rich, and powerful ministry. They are a rare find in this day and age of record sales first ministry "maybe". I will pray for and support Living Waters daily as they take the Gospel packaged in a very attractive and tasty sound to the un-churched and encourage and uplift Believers. Consider me a new Fan and Friend. Blessings. Tony Ray G”
