Good Friday 2015
Not a version I was familiar with, but still achingly beautiful. Aside from Bach, probably the only music I would allow on this day.
I love 'em both. Actually used this track from the original production in a video the kids and I made about a knight burned up by a dragon. It was strangely touching.
Funny, I was just reading an article at Salon about why RFRA is the problem. Granted, it involved a really bad misreading of Hobby Lobby and a rank ignorance of the law. But hey, it was on the internet. ,..
Lemme guess, accommodating religious practice in non-discriminatory ways is no longer something liberals support the way we did when the real RFRA was passed.
I'm a Godspell person, myself.

ReplyDeleteSomething about how RFRA has made us all serfs and subject to fundies.
ReplyDeleteGoddammit, I really hate it when fundies for me to make serf & turf for their weddings.
ReplyDeleteI meant "force". I blame these fundamentalist cats attacking my hand.
