The Pope's IPod

Everyone knows the Catholic church is a little bit crazy. I mean besides thinking little bread wafers are the flesh of a guy that's been dead for 2000 years.

What would you put in the new Pope's IPod to help him guide his flock?

Me:
Heaven Up Here - EATB
Word On A Wing - Bowie
Awake - BRMC
The Lord's Prayer - Siouxsie & the Banshees

I can't help but thinking this would be a good time to start a U2 Songs That Don't Suck thread. But I think I've done enough damage for one day. :-)

    Norma Jean - 'the entire world is counting on me'.... jeff buckley's version of 'corpus christi carol' if the he was in need of something a bit classic, and perhaps Bon Jovi's 'keep the faith' or 'living on a prayer'!

    maybe Strapping Young Lad's 'oh my fucking god'.

    or anything at all by iggy pope.
    • Re: The Pope's IPod

      Can't believe no one suggested SFA's God show Me Magic!

      A miracle is always a good way to get some new followers and to make the existing ones reaffirm their faith.

        It'll be a mirracle if the new pope lasts till Christmas.
