Friends in VERY Low Places

Timothy Birdnow

So, Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks sang John Lennon's nihilistic anthem "Imagine" at Jimmy Carter's funeral. Odd choice.

The song was and is a communist screed promoting materialism over faith in God. The lyrics are:

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us, only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Sounds like hell to me. Certainly it's a rejection of all Mr. carter claimed to stand for - he taught Sunday school after all.

Who would sing a song denying Heaven or religion at somebody's FUNERAL! Essentially they are telling the Carter family that Jimmy is gone forever and that's that.

Brooks had been accused of rape and assault by a woman, and I always doubted it. But this makes me wonder...

At any rate Brooks and Yearwood (his wife) are big Democrat supporters, which always make one suspicious of them. And when Brooks says he has "friends in low places" we didn't know he went THAT low!

1 I am not a big fan of singing folk songs at funerals in general, but happened to be tuned in when this appalling example of bad taste was foisted off on the American public. I almost dropped the remote in my haste to  get that excrement out of my living room.

2 My wife and I were, years ago, the substitute musicians of choice at a Unitarian-Universalist in town, and as you'd expect, were often asked to play that POS. I can tell you that it's very difficult to play clarinet while gritting your teeth.

4 I hear THAT Bill. I would n't approve of a song like that even if it was a moral song. Imagine is just terrible, from beginning to end.

You probably ground down a few bicuspids Dana!
