Even if I am an atheist, I actually love the song, not for what it means, but how it is expressed.
applies to most religious stuff in general, churches and temples are very cool and i wish there was more not strictly religious stuff happening in there. It’s only really around christmas and the end of the school year that non-christians have a reason to spend any time in a church…
Incredibly powerful music.
‘Did you know that the 1971 hit ‘Stairway to Heaven’ by Led Zeppelin contains religious connotations.’
Pfft, yeah never listening to that Christian propaganda again
Some Lemmy probably
I’ve been using this song as my phone alarm for the past 20 years because of its stepped increase in intensity at the beginning. Usually I wake up before the shakers come on. I know I was in a deep sleep if the first “Baba Yetu” hits.
I’ve heard that doing this can condition you to be anxious when you hear a song.
I got around this by using a song that already made me anxious. I used the drowning music from Sonic the Hedgehog. Let me tell you, it fucking woke me up without fail. I was up and ready to go after the first six notes.
