Given that and how strong the warnings were, my dread at what might be coming mounted. Can't say I was disappointed. Utterly terrifying.<br /><br />But I will say that it was, um, impressive?, how he was able to hit notes accurately in that register. Control is always most difficult at the limits, so kudos for that, I guess.

The song itself is compellingly beautiful. <br />C. Though there were biblical words in the there, it clearly wasn't a godly song.<br />D. It is another one of those songs that makes people feel good about themselves and the accomplishments of mankind in general, when they should feel shameful because of their sinfulness.<br />E. The acoustics were amazing - which contributed to point D.<br />F.
