my sweet lord, it's a deal [religious songs]
waiting to hit - lift to experience
When the Lord said
"Son! Tell the world before it explodes, the glory of the Texas-Jerusalem Crossroads"
I said "Lord, I make you a deal; I will, if you give me a smash hit
so I can build a, ‘city on the hill'"
And he said "Son! I will if you will"
I said "My Sweet Lord, it's a deal"
entiendo la fuerza de la música religiosa, aunque ya no crea. tan sólo considerar la fuerza de canciones respaldas por mitos y tradiciones de miles de años de antigüedad. si no es nostalgia de lo decididos que pudimos haber sido , es nostalgia de la soledad que nunca nos deja.

"Al conocer el mito, se conoce el origen de las cosas y, por consiguiente, se llega a dominarlas y manipularlas a voluntad".
Eliade, M (2000). Aspectos del mito. Barcelona: Paidós. p.26-27.
"(...) es el mito el que, de alguna manera, distribuye los papeles de la historia, y permite decidir lo que configura el momento histórico, el alma de una época, de un siglo, de una época de la vida. El mito es el módulo de la historia, y no a la inversa."
Durand, G (1993). De la mitocrítica al mitoanálisis: figuras míticas y aspectos de la obra. Barcelona: Anthropos. p.32.
"The harnessing of musical expression to mythic content defines sacred song"
Marini, S. A. (2003). Sacred Song in America: Religion, Music, and Public Culture. University of Illinois. p.4. disponible en google scholar.
"Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me."
La Biblia. Salmo 23:4.
"I love you Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ I love you, yes I do."
The King of Carrot Flowers, pt.2., Neutral Milk Hotel.
"Jesus Christ, why don't you come save my life.
Open my eyes and blind me
with your light and your lies."
Opiate, Tool.

Theres this book by Jeanette Winterson called Art Objects that's really interesting. She talks about how religion inspired a much higher artistic standard in people back in the day. It's a fair point. I wonder if believing in absolutely nothing could ever become transcendental. Seems to work for zen buddhist monks.
