Robert Sweet Interviewit as Christian Music and throw it away before they even listen it. Dano: Right Robert: And unfortunately that happens a lot in this world, and again that's what I wanted to do on my Love Trash Record. For example there's a song called "The F Word". And what I'm saying is the F word is forgiveness. Dano: Ahhh...Awesome (laughs) Robert: And see, most people don't take that approach, it's either the F word is something sexual, or lets figure out a nice Gospel way of saying forgiveness. But that's not really me. That's what was cool about Stryper. It was able to come out and be something so bold...I guess, if that's the terminology. It was pretty much in your face for Jesus, but at the same time it was total Rock and Roll. Dano: Oh yeah...It ministered to both the unsaved and the saved. Robert: Ya know, if it never touched anybody who wasn't a Christian, I'd be failing at what I'm supposed to do. Robert Lee Sweet
