Birdseed's Tunedown

2008-08-17

If you're angling for a Jesus complex, I bet you could construct something off those song picks

"Gonna find you and make you want me"

"Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long"


"I can take you higher
I'm on fire"


"I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly"


"Easy to idolize all others above
So worth the yearning for
So swell to keep the home fire burning for"


"Can you see the beauty inside of me?
[...]I'm getting ready to leave the ground"


"Yes we can heal this nation.
Yes we can repair this world."

(Just Sayin'.)

About This Blog

Birdseed's Tunedown is a blog that cares warmly about popular music and its listeners. Occasional features include a genre of the week.

Now also on Twitter. Blame the possibility of crowdsourcing.
