Sarah McLachlan Dear God

Heartwrenching cover of the XTC song...a commentary on the authenticity of the traditional portrayal of the universal construction which shockingly retains its creationist ideologies. To question is to illuminate.

"Dear God" is a song on XTC's 1986 album Skylarking. It was not a part of the original Skylarking album, but after DJs across America picked up the song, Geffen Records decided to replace "Mermaid Smiled" with "Dear God." The song was inspired by a series of books with the same title, seen by lead singer Andy Partridge as an exploitation of children.[citation needed][1]

While this version is good, I'm surprised how many people think it's a Sarah McLachlan original. Even a close friend was surprised when I was talking about the XTC original.

what's with the human transmutation circles??

[JavelBleach]

Astounding that at this stage of human evolution and in spite (/denial) of the blatantly obvious, there are still so many confused, gullible, quasi-schizophrenic people selling their souls to a few religious maniacs.

Ironically though, it's thanks to them that songs like this are so poignant.

@GodisTruthseekTruth Again....You're a liar. You continue insisting without evidence. Proof is the burden of the believer, not the non-believer. Stop talking and start proving. Oh yeah...things that don't count as proof are: The Bible, Faith, Good deeds, supposed "miracles", ......personal experiences that you can't prove to other people also don't count as proof. Your Lord is worthy of nothing because he does not exist.

If the whole world followed the gospel of Jesus Christ, heaven would be here by now.

What we see out there is the work of the flesh, the result of neglecting the Lord's call to seek first the kingdom of God & be reborn of the Spirit.

It is easy to blame God. But blame won't stand on Judgment Day.

By sending Jesus Christ, God has done His part to reconcile a fallen world.

If we really care about the world, the best thing to do is accept Christ as Lord & then really make Him Lord. He is worthy.
