Top Songs by Casting Crowns

Thursday March 18, 2010

Casting CrownsWith Four RIAA-certified Platinum albums, 19 Dove Awards and 1 American Music Award, Casting Crowns has been the most played artist on all Christian radio formats combined and is the fastest CCM artist in its career to have its first two albums certified Platinum, and only the second in RIAA history ever to achieve it (the other being Jars of Clay).

There are so many songs that Casting Crowns has put out that touch people where they live that it is hard to pick favorites, but these are mine.
