It's Easter Sunday today and for some that is a very sacred day and for some it is a day of over priced confectionery, most people probably fall somewhere in between these two Easter bookends. Me? I just keep falling, getting up and falling, get up and ...
Where-ever you are between these bookends there is little dispute that the Easter story has had a profound effect on the history of humanity right up to the present day and is a story worth exploring.
I have assembled some of the audio and visual elements that sum up my thoughts on the subject of easter and its central character...
Dave Matthews presents a most amazing lyrical reflection...
Ben Hur tells how the story changed another mans life...
Eddie Izzard brings us some hysterical reality checks on how we engage with this bank holiday weekend...
If I go
Before I'm old
Oh, brother of mine
Please don't forget me if I go
Bartender, please
Fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
After three days in the ground
Oh, and if I die
Before my time
Oh, sweet sister of mine
Please don't regret me if I die
Bartender, please
Fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
After three days in the ground
Bartender, please
Fill my glass for me
With the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
After three days in the ground
I'm on bended knees, I pray
Bartender, please
When I was young, I didn't think about it
Now I can't get it out of my mind
I'm on bended knees
Father, please
Oh, and if all this gold
Should steal my soul away
Oh, sweet mother of mine
Please redirect me if this gold
Bartender, you see
The wine that's drinking me
came from the vine that strung Judas from the Devil's tree
His roots deep, deep in the ground
Bartender, you see
The wine that's drinking me
came from the vine that strung Judas from the Devil's tree
his roots deep, deep in the ground,in the ground
I'm on bended knees
Oh, Bartender, please
I'm on bended knees
Father, please
When I was young, I never dreamed about it
Now I just want to run and die
I'm on bended knees
Oh, Bartender, please
Bartender, please
