5. George Harrison - My Sweet Lord
I really want to see you
Really want to be with you
Really want to see you lord
But it takes so long, my lord
Það er ekki alveg ljóst hvaða máttarvöld George er að ákalla en ég skil lagið einmitt þannig að það skipti ekki öllu máli.
4. Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down
Go and tell that long tongue liar,
Go and tell that midnight rider,
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter,
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Þetta lag hefur verið sungið af ótalmörgum tónlistarmönnum en mér finnst þessi útgáfa bara svo rosalega flott. Cash tókst einhvernveginn alltaf að færa tökulögum nýja merkingu og meiri dýpt.
3. Jens Lekman - A Higher Power
In church on sunday making out in front of the preacher
You had a black shirt on with a big picture of Nietzsche
When we had done our thing for a full christian hour
I had made up my mind that there must be a higher power
Jens fer að trúa á æðri máttarvöld eftir að hann finnur ástina. Sérstakt lag í mínum huga.
2. Sufjan Stevens - Seven Swans
He will take you
If you run
He will chase you
Because he is the Lord
Hinn trúaði Sufjan syngur ógnvænlegt lag um sinn Guð.
1. Curtis Mayfield - People Get Ready
People get ready for the train to Jordan
It's picking up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em
There's hope for all among those loved the most
Ég fer ekki ofan af því að þetta sé eitt fallegasta lag sem ég hef heyrt.
