Wow. Not surprised you heathens miss the subliminal Christian message. 

And if you listen very hard, the truth will come to you at last:
Exactly 666 refrains in, you can CLEARLY hear him sing, "There's always The Son."

BAM! You just got punked by The Stranglers' "Always The Son" — a favorite played (& played & played & played) in revival tents worldwide.

Bonus Feature on original album sleeve notes:

What is there always?
A: The Sun
B: The Son
C: Thus, son
D: This song
E: This On (and on, and on, and on, and on...)

I thought it odd that they used a photo from their first US tour for that album cover.  Maybe it was a reference to the album title, saying: "Here we are - London Calling", plus using the layout design from Elvis' first album.

I understand how that could be true for quite a few different albums, including London Calling - it was pretty epic to me, especially added that I was at the concert where the cover photo was taken.  I guess it depends on how important music is to each individual.

I was working as a roofer in Texas during the summer of '81. We used to bring a small boom box up on the roof with us to listen to the radio while we worked.  One day, just before quitting time, "Rocket Man" came on the station we were listening to when Wade declared, "I'M A ROCKET-MAN!" and jumped off the roof. Broken ankle, trip to ER, and workman's comp—clearly that "smoke-break" he had in his car at lunchtime was more than the usual Marlboro Reds he usually smoked.  

This one's for you Wade—not the cleverest Rocket-Man out there.

I have seen comments similar to this among the song comments for various songs played here at RP.  Says it all, really.  The sheer power and wonder of music. Some may say such statements are hyperbole.  They are wrong.

Ugh, more derivative tripe.   Sorry, I just chafe at all the revisitation that goes on in the "creative" enterprises.  As a design professional, I can assure one and all that there is no creation in the redo.  Movies, TV shows, music, architecture, cuisine...pffff!!!  It's become all tripe; that's why cows have 3 stomachs, so they can continue to digest what that already ate.  

 
They have three stomachs so they can produce three times the tripe.

Can't remember if this has been posted already but it is one of the epics:
 Steely_D wrote:
Suddenly it's a very quiet Sunday morning in 1982 and I'm sitting in a hospital ward full of indigent women in various stages of labor and this comes on the eclectic radio program I listen to.
Cup of coffee. Some quiet periodic moaning in the background, waiting for one of the recent Vietnamese immigrant women to announce that she needs the toilet. She'll really go in the bathroom, stand on the seat, squat, and try to deliver the baby without us knowing. We'll encourage her to lay on her back and do it the more difficult way, the way it wasn't done for all the other millennia.

It's a room full of quiet, joyful, subtle expectation and (mostly) happiness.
That's what this tune always brings out in me - but especially this quiet beautiful Sunday.

Thanks, BillG
