Reflecting on the Charm of BarlowGirl and "Never Alone"

The beautiful sisters of BarlowGirl opened for Princess Rebecca that evening in League City, Texas. I later saw them again at a big KSBJ show in Eleanor Tinsley Park downtown. BarlowGirl was a massive fixture in the mid-2000s Christian rock and alternative scene, with hits like "Never Alone" dominating Christian radio from 2004–2006.

I posted a press release on my "John Is Waiting For His Princess" blog offering to fly to meet the girls in their hometown of Chicago for coffee. For a while, Ms. Alyssa was the apple of my eye. Who knows, maybe a cup of coffee somewhere is still in our future, ladies. Wishing all three of you the very best.

Here's an acoustic version of "Never Alone" that aired back then on Air1 Radio, which broadcasts on hundreds of faith-based stations nationwide.
