This stirring single, with its bluesy ricocheting groove driving Jeremy's vocal with its delicious flourishes of falsetto, has returned the Grammy-nominated singer to America's Christian music big-time. For my money, this is the best song the CCM veteran has ever recorded and has already clocked up over five million streams. Now with Camp's biopic feature film I Still Believe about to be launched, it can only attract even more listeners. At the time of "Dead Man Walking"'s release Jeremy said, "Colossians 2:13-14 speaks of our lives before Christ as being 'dead'. There was a time I felt emotionally and spiritually dead, but then God changed me radically. That is why I'm excited to share 'Dead Man Walking' - because it's a song of thankfulness that even though I was once a 'dead man walking', I'm now a man 'walking with God'."
