I think it is about the heaven/hell Dante thing as stated by cindyfor20. Anyway @Govtwriteslyrics "Personal Jesus" was written by Depeche Mode. Johnny Cash covered it. |

lazerpj hit it on the head so perfectly. I have been listening to thi ssong most of my life and I think its amazing that as a child I just liked dancing to it with my Mom. As an adult I fell in love with it again for its meaning and appreciate the artistry of the song. |

Everyone is so right. After all most true artists, and I believe Bowie is one of them, likes for people to take away what they will from any song. This song is brilliant. Just FYI the Templars where Christians Knights in the Middle Ages and Saracens are Islams of the same time period. Then Bowie ties it in to todays Holy War in Palestine. For me, this song brought to the forefront the old saying about those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it along with the comments that Bonehead and Hallospacegirl about war in the name of God and blind, unthinking devotion all go to prove that this song is an amazing statement as well as a wonderful piece of art. On top of ALL of that the arrangement and Bowie's vocals are just perfect. The brilliance of Bowie is at its best right here. |
