Following its farewell US tour, the UK-based, RIAA Certified Gold-selling, GRAMMY-nominated and Dove Award winning band Delirious? releases its History Makers: Greatest Hits CD November 6 on Kingsway (Survivor) with EMI CMG Distribution.

Known as the forerunners of the modern worship movement and as one of the industry’s best live bands, Delirious? is saying “farewell” throughout the US with a final, two-night event at the Dallas Convention Center October 23-24.

History Makers: Greatest Hits is the definitive Delirious? recording, featuring the songs that inspired a generation of worshippers to live life “out loud”, and that continue to be sung today throughout the world by literally millions of people every week.

Included in this collection are such genre defining modern worship classics as “I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever”, “Did You Feel The Mountains Tremble”, “Majesty”, “My Glorious” and “Shout To The North”.

As the songs travelled across continents providing the soundtrack for Sunday morning church services, Delirious? was delivering its message to millions of fans through thousands of electrifying concerts in auditoriums, theatres and churches worldwide.

And that message was always challenging its audiences to be “history makers”, which the band defines as people who look beyond their own needs to make a tangible difference in the lives of others.

“The Delirious? story was only ever about responding to whatever it was God was doing through music that abandoned itself to Him,” says the band members collectively as they call a close to the Delirious? journey while staying ever committed to be history makers in God’s story, carrying individually His soundtrack with them.

The full History Makers: Greatest Hits CD track listing follows:

I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever

In addition to the History Makers: Greatest Hits CD, Delirious? has compiled a limited edition two-CD, 30-song collection and a DVD featuring all 13 of the band’s concept music videos.

With both contemporary and worship tracks represented across the two CDs, the band members have also put together a 58-page booklet for History Makers: Greatest Hits (Limited Edition) that charts their journey over the last 16-years. All wrapped in a cardboard slipcase, only 12,000 copies will be available worldwide.

Taking its songs on the road one last time, the band has already sold out concerts across the world. Following the US dates, Delirious? embarks on its final UK tour, with one last sold out performance at London’s HMV Hammersmith Apollo November 29.
