      Religion's often the source of some great musical lyrics. Found these lyrics quite apt for the kind of conflicting ideas that surround Christmas nowadays.

      God has got his phone off the hook, babe
      Would he even pick up if he could
      It's been a while since we saw that child
      Hanging 'round this neighbourhood
      You see his mother dealing in a doorway
      See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
      Jesus sister's eyes are a blister
      The High Street never looked so low

      Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes
      I swear I can see your soul

      The Smiths.  Still Ill

      The opening verse is amazing.

      I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving
      England is mine, it owes me a living
      But ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
      Oh, ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
      But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore
      No, we cannot cling to those dreams

      Have a listen to Chris Cornell’s newest song (lyrics are from a couple of Johnny Cash’s unpublished poems), genius writing and Cornell’s delivery is absurdly haunting.

      “You Never Knew My Mind"

      I know you feel the way I change, but you can't change the way I feel
      Sometimes I'm a stranger to you, one of a kind
      And I think someway you'll make it, though you don't know how to take it
      Sometimes you're a stranger to me, one of a kind

      There were times of lots of laughter
      And you felt you understood
      We were carefree, open and honest
      Loving easy, kind and true
      And I suppose you never doubted
      That we were all together fine
      You never really knew my mind
      You never really knew my mind

      My silence holds the secrets when I answer but don't answer
      You did not see me well enough to recognize the signs
      You didn't want to notice or know that it was over
      I did not see you well enough to recognize the signs

      And there were times of lots of laughter
      And you felt you understood
      We were carefree, kind and honest
      Loving easy, kind and true
      And I suppose you never doubted
      That we were all together fine
      Then you saw the changes painfully
      And you knew, you never really knew my mind

      And I suppose you never doubted
      That we were all together fine
      Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
      And sometimes you're a stranger to me
      Sometimes, maybe all the time
      You never really knew my mind
      I never really knew your mind

      It's the same thing night on night
      Who's wrong, baby who's right
      Another fight and I slam the door on
      Another battle in our dirty little war
      When I look at myself I don't see
      The man I wanted to be
      Somewhere along the line I slipped off track
      I'm caught movin' one step up and two steps back

      Probably my favourite Bruce song of all time. Such a beautifully sung song.

      Wolf Alice - Silk

      Just looking for a protector
      God never reached out in time
      There's love, there is a savior
      But that ain't no love of mine

      One of my favourite bands & the track from train spotting 2...

      George Michael: Different Corner..

      Take me back in time, maybe I can forget
      Turn a different corner and we never would have met.
      Would you care?
      Oh, I don't understand it for you it's a breeze
      Little by little, you've brought me to my knees
      Don't you care?

      Favourite Band

      Probably my favourite track



      Midnight rockers, city slickers
      Gunmen and maniacs
      All will feature on the freak show
      And I can't do nothing 'bout that, no


      But if you hurt what's mine
      I'll sure as hell retaliate


      Serious, infectious and dan...
      Serious, and
      Serious, infectious and dangerous


      You can free the world, you can free my mind
      Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight
      You can free the world, you can free my mind
      Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight


      Serious, infectious and dangerous
      Friends and enemies, I find it's contagious
      I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me
      To see me looking back at you


      Lucky dippers, crazy chancers
      Seems to be moving fast
      What happened to the niceties of my childhood days?
      Well I can't do nothing 'bout that, no



      But if you hurt what's mine
      I'll sure as hell retaliate


      I was looking back to see if you were
      I was looking, I was
      I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me
      To see me looking back at you


      You can free the world, you can free my mind
      Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight
      You can free the world, you can free my mind
      Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight


      Serious, infectious and dangerous
      Friends and enemies, I find it's contagious
      And they're spreading through your system like a virus
      Yes, the trouble in the end, it makes you anxious
      I was looking, I was
      I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me
      To see me looking back at you
      I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me
      To see me looking back at you



      But if you hurt what's mine
      I'll sure as hell retaliate


      You can free the world, you can free my mind
      Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight
      Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight
