side note...

I'm not a huge x-tian music fan, like some people.

I heard this Adele song last night on a TV show ("Make You Feel My Love") and instantly liked it. That rarely happens for me, songs usually take a few spins for me to get into.

Found on YouTube that Phil Keaggy performed it at a church? He introduced the song as a Dylan tune that sounded to him like a love letter from Jesus to us (turns out Dylan was, in fact, born-again in the 70's)

I can't hear it any other way now and, it chokes me up and gives me goosebumps in a way I can't remember any other song has, and certainly no other praise or hymn has. I think because, I generally don't think about Jesus so like, human...? Like, as a real, tangible person that speaks a non KJV-dialect...

Guess I might be a X-tian music fan...

  1. And that non-KJV dialect would be, of course, some dialect of Palestinian Aramaic.
