If there’s two things in this world that we can count on without fail, it’s that every concert will always have a small interlude during which the band will somehow try to satisfy their inner guilt for charging $150 for tickets by giving props to a cause they usually can’t pronounce the name of and usually know less about than you would think could even be possible, and that worship music will always be arranged the exact same way (unless we get real crazy and repeat a chorus or start with the bridge or some other comparable idea that only emergent churches dare to do). And this video just nails the satire on both those subjects, albeit in more of a British-type humour way. (And of course, this is one of the only instances referring to music in which the word ‘nails’ is allowed to be used. Any time someone says they ‘nail’ that John Mayer tone or Jimi Hendrix solo or George Harrison feel, you can be sure they don’t. ;) ) But here’s the video, and it is lovely. And if you’re looking for the worship song part, it starts at about 4:45:
Splendid.
