SATURDAY NIGHT MUSIC

 

Bruce Springsteen was honored at the Kennedy Center in 2009.

Sting sings Springsteen's beautiful, "The Rising," which is about hope, resilience, and the ability to create strength from loss.

As good as the original.

Thanks for that. I spent the whole day on a post about Integrated Information Theory that ended with a Bible verse related to the Christian "rapture". Even though Springsteen wrote this about a firefighter climbing the WTC tower on 9/11... it still kind of strikes a "rapture" theme.

Like I said before, thanks. Synchronicity.

Ahhh... the Kennedy Center. Now helmed by one of our leading cultural experts. I betting the contracts are already out for American versions of some of German propaganda movies and plays Ducky used to mock.

You thought that he was mocking them? Interesting...
