| St. Vincent – Jesus Saves, I Spend Lyrics | 17 years ago |

I think, more than expressing her dislike of Sufjan... she's making a criticism to Christianity in general, from an inside point-of-view... You don't have to be a 'christ-hater' to make a decent criticism. I think it talks about christians making a big fuzz and a big show out of things ("While people are spinning like toys on Christmas day") while in reality, they're doing very little, or simply a big mess. I believe that she pokes fun at the christian sub-culture (in backgrounds and landscapes with the languages of saints). This song feeds my frustration and annoyance with the general Christian population. Being one myself, I struggle with the identity and sub-culture. |
