When I think of those words, I think of the amazing things that some youth can do:

I picture youth getting big air on skateboards
I picture youth art shows at high school
I picture kids winning championships
I picture kids earning big scholarships
I picture special kids learning to care for less fortunate
I picture some kids making their parents proud
I think of youth camp and mission trips

Those parts of youth culture that are inspiring. Those elements of the culture that realte to facing a challenge head on. Not succumbing to negative peer pressure but instead providing positive peer pressure, inspiring others to strive for their highest achievement.

"High Places" speaks to me of places of importance, almost worship - so seminal clubs, concert venues, places where youth gather and create, and aspire to go to. In Europe - still Ibiza, a few years ago London's "Ministry of Sound" club,USA- "Burning Man" festival etc.

Perhaps I'm just odd, but my first thought was "high places" as in the idolatrous shrines of paganized Israel in the OT. In keeping with that theme, then, of things that are worshipped:

1. Reputation
2. Busyness
3. Image
4. Sex
5. Technology
6. Success
