It's quite valid to look at spiritual and theological interpretations of what is going in popular music and culture. Do you follow this folklore about the "Dark Side of the Moon"/Wizard of Oz connection? The Beatles' song "Let it Be" has very obvious Catholic associations, imagery, and symbolism. I'd rather hear about "Mother Mary comes to me" than some of the New Agey stuff which has found its way into Mass in the U.S.

Yeah... I even tried it out. hogwash
>>Let it Be
I know McCartney downplayed its Catholic-ness, but Socrates said the poets don't know their muses. He was brought up Catholic; it was in his head.

What I don't like is hearing John "Lenin" chuckle at it on the background of the album track.

"The Beatles' song "Let it Be" has very obvious Catholic associations, imagery, and symbolism."

It's accidental. On a tour, there was a manager that used to take care of the boys, waking them, counseling them, etc., and they took to calling him "Mother _____." I forget the name, but it was a man's name like Michael or Peter or something.

They wrote the song about him, but then thought it might sound weird talking about "Mother Robert" or whatever, so they changed it to Mary.
