Yes. Gospel is over powering at times but still decent.

I really like it when an artist takes a spiritual or a hymn or something and works it into something entirely different.



I also wanted to post a couple of Marc Ribot tracks ("Holy Holy Holy" and "Go Down Moses), but the bastards at youtube seem to have removed them. Those two are phenomenal religious tracks.

I find this so creeepy :D omgod

I don't care for songs about God because I'm not all that interested in God.

Idk if he counts but Sufjan always had a lot of Christian themes in his music, but I still love a lot of it.

Who cares what a song is about?
I'm as atheist as they come, but if the music is good I'm gonna enjoy it.
Although TBH not much comes to mind, besides classical music.

Kinda the same, but if it's annoyingly preachy, then it becomes abrasive.

This song is religious as hell, but it's all about hope, which is a universal emotion, and it's pretty ****ing beautiful.




Whereas this is just whiny, preachy bitching about Christians somehow being persecuted, even while being the majority. No matter how good the music is, I still have to deduct points for Ozzy sounding like a twat.

If it's too stupid and pushy that might be a problem, but I'm pretty good at ignoring lyrics anyway, especially in english.

This is great.

Cohen nailed it when he wrote this then Antony took it and made even more fit for the almighty.


Edit: what's funny is he was a Jew inspired by Buddha to write about God. ;)

edit edit: sung by a transgendered man... "Heathens" make the best songs about God.
