Well, Maundy Thursday now, and this song should pretty much be called ‘A Long Evening at Gethsemane’, so much agony, dread and foreboding. You can’t miss it, unless you’re a robot or an Ayn Rand-lover, something like that, chasing merely the bottom line, little regard for religion, history, culture, art. If that indeed is the case, best wishes to you while you pray for deliverance in the garden tonight.
