All it took was for a KLOVE radio intern\u2019s finger to slip, and a classic power ballad by Journey became an unlikely worship sensation overnight.<\/p>\n
The incident reportedly occurred Tuesday evening, as new intern Kyle Criswell attempted to queue up Michael W. Smith\u2019s song \u201cOpen Arms,\u201d\u009d but mistakenly selected hit rock band Journey\u2019s 1981 power ballad of the same name instead.
Criswell realized his mistake as the sappy love lyrics \u201cLying beside you, here in the dark \/ Feeling your heartbeat with mine \/ Softly you whisper, you\u2019re so sincere \/ How could our love be so blind\u201d\u009d began pumping into his headphones. Horrified, the young assistant immediately signaled the on-duty DJ to come over and help him figure out how to correct his mistake.<\/p>\n
But then, something amazing happened, as thousands of new listeners began to tune into the station to hear the hit new worship song, calling in and demanding the station replay the track.<\/p>\n
