Baylor marched into Reliant Stadium hoping to claim the first Baylor bowl victory since 1992. Unfortunately the Illinois Fighting Illini had other ideas, blowing past the Bears, 38-14. It was a tough lesson, but one that will fuel the team as it heads into the offseason.

Artist Shawn McDonald returns to music scene By Jenna DeWitt Contributor Shawn McDonald is back on Your future’s the Christian music radar with his new album “Closer.” The album re- leases March 11 on EMI’s Sparrow Records. Though the songs are very personal for McDonald (he wrote timeline, fed. or contributed to all of them), he shares songwriting credits with other award-winning writers such as Brandon Heath, Joy Williams, Ben Glover and Josh Garrels. Review The whole album is fresh, but comfortable, starting with “Better Way.” The first track is TobyMac- esque and funky, perhaps an in- fluence of producer Christopher Stevens who has worked with both artists. McDonald’s passion to go deep- er spiritually resounds throughout the album, but is summed up in “Closer.” McDonald’s radio hit single is catchy, even after much airplay. The keyboard and strings serve as solid foundations for poi- gnant harmonies. “I wrote this song, and a lot of these songs, when I was in a rough place,” McDonald wrote in the al- bum’s song-by-song descriptions. “This is just my own desperation bleeding out.” “Something Real” expresses a desire that is being vocalized through the nation’s churches: to experience something life-giving and relationship-based besides dead traditions and passive reli- gion. McDonald declares through his raw and honest melody that the missing element is love. “Don’t Give Up” is the album’s slower, but hope-giving, ballad. It is thematically powerful, but with a quiet determination. “I’ve come too far/I’ve seen so much/I’ve heard the call/I’ve felt the touch/ I’ve tasted love” McDonald wit- nesses as he urges listeners not to give up on life. “Eyes Forward” brings back the funky groove, but in a more toned- down way so it is less of a party song and more of a Mat Kearney- style understated coolness. Though the song is about spiritual warfare, McDonald approaches it with un- derstanding that though the dark- ness is present, the battle is not lost. Musically and thematically, “Storms” is a bit cliché for CCM, but likely only MercyMe fans might find it noticeable. Otherwise it reflects the dark times McDonald 2006 Introduced to PwC at a Wayne Rowe, PwC Associate.
