A coven mate sent this to our group list; very inspiring.

Some music is glorious, and I love glorious music. However, some music transcends all boudaries of gloriousness into transcendent celebratory bliss! Here's a song that nails it in every single way I can think of.

2080 by Yeasayer

Sublime!

Here's another Yeasayer song that I really love; "Wait for the Summer"

Both of these songs have a decidedly First Nation impression about them - gorgeous. I would say Native American, but that doesn't quite hit the feeling the songs posess.

Yeasayer are from Brooklyn. Here's a link to their page. http://www.myspace.com/yeasayer

I'd know none of this if it weren't for Mr. Chicoryflower. He's just genius with finding neat music on the internet. He's just now introduced me to another group; Fleet Foxes. Says they're similar genre-wise. I've heard one song that's just lovely.

"I do not like experts. They are our jailers. I despise experts more than anyone on earth...They solve nothing! They are servants of whatever system hires them. They perpetuate it. When we are tortured, we shall be tortured by experts. When we are hanged, experts will hang us...When the world is destroyed, it will be destroyed not by its madmen but by the sanity of its experts and the superior ignorance of its bureaucrats."

-John le Carre, Russia House

Many blessings. I think we deserve an apology from NBC.

Thank you, Christine, for putting this one out there. PLEASE everyone contact today@nbc.com about Kathy Lee Gifford's anti-pagan remarks on this morning's Today Show.

Here's the link to Christine's post.

The EMAIL ADDRESS FOR THE TODAY SHOW ON NBC:

today@nbc.com

Please contact them and let them know that broadcasted religious intolerance is not acceptable. NBC is allowing bigotry and hate speech to be aired in the name of this out-of-touch Christian fundamentalist selling a few CDs.

This is a great opportunity to get Today and NBC to recognize our numbers and maybe to allow them to see that pandering to the Christian conservative quarters in our country is NOT where it is at!

I'll be emailing them every half hour until an apology is issued on their website and network. Please feel free to post this on your page with or without credits. Just want to get the word out.

Covenspace has 12,000 plus members. Please, let's send them a nice, loud message about this!!

*Hiho* Pagans!
