Lifted up
Reflective in returning love you sing
Errant days filled me
Fed me illusion's gate
In temperate stream
Welled up within me
A hunger uncurbed by nature's calling
7 sacraments to song
Versed in Christ
Should strenght desert me
They'll come
They come
Lifted up
Reflected in returning love you sing
Heaven waits
Someday Christendom may come
Westward
Evening sun recedent
Set my resting vow
Hold in open heart
***
Paroles & Musique : Mark HOLLIS - Tim FRIESE-GREENE

@Planettelex99 just compared the two. you are absolutely right. thx for the info!
-
Did anyone else recognise that UNKLE sampled these drums for Rabbit In Your Headlights?
-
@vwgolffan1 Not anti-christian but anti-religious - big difference.
-
Because he dislikes it.
-
Totally correct. Evan doesn't understand irony.
-
Like a lot of religious folk you don't see the irony in work when all you want is validation for your faith. Hollis was being VERY ironic in "Happiness is Easy". It is an extremely anti-Christian song. Wake up dear.
-
yes and now i understand it , i read about how mark hollis wrote this songs, and he said it.., he also said that jerusalem was written that way and other things i don't even want to mention.
anyway, I decide to follow Jesus and not talk talk

@EvanConnellyNovacek Always thought Happiness Is Easy was quite a nasty song towards religion: "It wrecks me how they justify their wars"

everyone says that this band is underrated.
But doesn't anyone agree that the opinions of others towards this song is way less important than the feeling that you get from it?
And second of all, the band did not want to be more succesful then they were. Which shows their love for the music and not for the money, unlike the crappy commercial shit nowadays;)
