Love it!

@Triphid ah, how could I forget that! Beautiful addition to the discussion. Thanks.

@Tinocca Maybe we also add to the list songs like;
"Always look on the Bright side," from the Life of Brian, and,
"Saltwater" and "Imaginary Lines" by Julian Lennon as well just to name a few.

Good one!

I like the song. I was not aware of any religious meaning behind it. I’ll have to listen again.

Some things I've read about it say it has a double meaning. Probably just conjecture.

Sweet! Thanks.

This is a pretty version. Thanks.

I miss LC

@Davesnothere never seen that before, love the line,
‘I had my demons, but they were middle class and lame’

Wow. Just wow.

@Tinocca Beautiful ain't it?

@Sticks48 um, sure, you could call it that. Lol

@Tinocca I had the pleasure of hanging out with him, Bobby not Jesus, after a show one night. He was a very funny man, and he was a very nice man.

@Sticks48 well that certainly gives it more meaning to you. This is the first time I’ve ever heard this song or this singer.

@Tinocca He had a number of hits on the country charts during country's real peak in the 70s and 80s. If I was going to pick a real religious song it would be Amazing Grace only because we used to do a kick ass version of it in the 70s. We were nonbelievers , but it was a fun song to play and the country/country rock audiences we played to really liked it. We just kind of pulled it out of our ass one night after touring with Willie and hearing it every night, and we liked the way it came out. It kind of built all through the song until be the end of the song it was big.

Which one? I have sung a few different Ave Maria’s...my own favourite is the Schubert one.

@Marionville Schubert. The history and cathedrals of Europe are an overwhelming experience for someone coming from a recent culture.

@rogueflyer Yes...I can understand that...Cologne Cathedral is a massive gothic structure! I suppose we Europeans are more used to seeing medieval structures such as cathedrals than those of you from the New World, but they still inspire awe in me too.

I like both of those songs.

Nice choice.

I sing this with my choir almost every year.

I haven’t heard this song before. I like it. Nice groove to it. Thanks for this one!

@Tinocca Second track on Songs in the Key of Life. I like all of his stuff of course. A national treasure.

@indirect76 Stevie is a genius.

Enjoy! I love good harmonies, as well.

Same way with me as far as The Second Chapter and also Barry McGuire during his Christian rock days.

Nice voice. I like it.

I owned that vinal once . . .

@Davesnothere my brother had every Zeppelin record. He listened to them all the time.

@Tinocca I had them all too, only most now digitized.

Sure, that’s a religious reference. In the slightest sense. I did set the bar pretty low for songs to fit the question, so I guess this works. Thanks!

I just heard that song a few days ago. Nice.

Yes, great song and artist. Thank you. One of my favorites as well.

Yes! Good one.

Absolutely. I didn’t even start with all the Christmas songs I love. That is too big a list. O Holy Night is exquisite to me. I agree about Handel’s Messiah as well. So moving! Thanks for the input.

Around here several churches have "Messiah" sings where they hand out music & everybody partakes, usually followed by cookies & coffee. Tons of fun!

@AnneWimsey My sister sang in those for several years.

Least religious "religious-sounding" song on the planet, actually about the bItter side of human love , betrayal, loss.

@AnneWimsey Lots of Christians mistake this song as religious...obviously haven’t really listened to it properly.
