Summer Moon Over It
Alexa Chung “IT” girl in a commercial for AG Jeans over a song of “The Strokes” off shoot “Summer Moon”.
Take me to Church
Garance Doré is talking about Church’s but referring to the song “Take me to Church”. This makes me look into the lyrics. I was thinking, sounds like the Evangelical Right. But I was so wrong:
I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I’ll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my lifeNo masters or kings
When the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sinIn the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
Ooh oh. Amen. Amen. Amen.
The central message of the song is rather: “Growing up, I always say the hypocrisy of the Catholic church,” Hozier says. “The history speaks for itself and I grew incredibly frustrated and angry. I essentially just put that into my words.”
Great song writing, I can not see how somebody can match this depth a second time.
