Do you remember the circa 2002-2003 religious leaning Top 40 CHR hit by Mercy Me called "I Can Only Imagine"?

It's a beautiful song. It's been covered by just about every other Christian singer and band since then.

Lyrically it's nice but it's not my thing. The fact that I heard it EVERYWHERE when it was out didn't really help either.

I remember the first time I heard this song on my AC station, and my mom and I thought the station had accidentally been switched or something. Loved this once I heard it more, though.

This song would be perfect for a September 11, 2001 anniversary.

This song would be perfect for a September 11, 2001 anniversary. Actually, that song came out around that time on religious stations.

The song actually began to take off on top 40 after the Columbia tragedy.

I'm going to throw this out there... Emerson Drive (highly underrated country band) covered this for a christian country album... THEY NAILED IT! Just thought i'd mention that :)

I like Tamela Mann's cover of this song.
