Soloist. Songwriter/singer. ASCAP member. A NICE WITNESS FOR CHRIST There is an extensive interview of me done by Scott Crawford, at . Do not let the site name alarm you. It is an "adult-themed music and entertainment" site. It is not a porn site, and you will not get tagged for spam if you go there. Scott is a journalist of integrity, who asked pertinent and penetrating questions, then printed my answers verbatim. Both God and His son received much attention in the interview. REVIEWS: "Fancy keyboard playing is the backdrop for this positive and upbeat collection. Hackley's vocals are reminiscent of Burl Ives." Review by Brent Castillo, The Wichita Eagle, March 5, 2005. "world's wimpiest Christian rocker". Brother Russell Podcast; : INFLUENCES (a very lengthy list, ending with...) "and of course, Richard Hackley." "Yet the songs on the Worst of the Worst can be compelling in their awfulness. Songs like Richard Hackley's rabble-rousing, hackles-raising spiritual God's Backhand ("We're not talking about tennis or Ping-Pong!") "; "Richard Hackley... HUGE musical influence. And a real bad mofo live.";

Story behind the song
We waste more time and rob more joy from ourselves by thinking about the past, than any other activity we do. This song is encouragement to get past the past, and move on.
Lyrics
(v.1) Are there things from your past that still shame you today? Well it’s nobody’s business what they are. Besides, Jesus casts them all away. But you gotta get tough with those thoughts that turn your eyes to yesterday ‘Cause they will play you, and play you Until you take their toys away (c.1) GPIAMO Christ called you to a new life here GPIAMO Yesterday has no right to interfere. (v.2) Maybe your childhood was a nightmare Maybe you were brought up in abuse Maybe you don’t have a single fond memory Of anything from your youth. But that’s the old you Jesus took to the grave and buried him once and for all. It’s time to forget it, time to replace it With the new you answering God’s call (v.2) GPIAMO so your first birth didn’t take you far? GPIAMO 'cause your new birth is who you really are. (v.3) You find ‘em at school, you find ‘em at work, in traffic, & maybe in your home People thinking only of themselves, like the world is theirs alone The frustration they leave in their wake can cause your ministry pain But like everything else, You just put it behind you & forget it and get moving with God again (c.3) GPIAMO God has made you that strong GPIAMO you're strong enough to always carry on. GPIAMO.
