I wouldn't change a thing. It is *really* catchy, while also having something to say.

I like it overall. Only minor reservation was that it felt like the guitars were stepping on the vocal at points. Probably some EQ tweaks in the presence range to take the guitars back a bit might do. I don't think it is a levels thing.

Being as you brought this Jesus topic up I think it more appropriate that you expound upon the meaning of needing or wanting a "new Jesus." I do think you were irreverant in the witty lyrics. I also think your song is well done, minus what I think your meaning is. Rather than me making several negative points about your lyrics, I would really appreciate an explanation of your lyrics. An artist certainly doen't have to do so and I'd respect your choice. At this juncture; you've made a point of some kind and I've given my impression. I think you dissed Christ. If you did, He deserves at least some word on His behalf. Maybe you didn't diss but if I went further on my opinion without more information from you it might come off as preachy and negative. The music is real good and well recorded . . . IMO. Great structure. ;-) -- Cheers, Ben
Thanks Dick & Glennbo. Ben, This tune is about corrupt politicians, corporate America buying those politicians and special interest groups. "They'll sell you a new Jesus" if that's what they think you'll buy to further their special interests. No slam on Jesus or religion in general. (That's for another song).

In answer to your question - and in keeping it simple - I said and believe that because the Lord's name is not a coin to be spent willy-nilly like it's an analgesic or even a Doctor Feelgood. His Name is not a euphemism like, I gotta take a Jesus." My opinion and rock on, dude. B-) -- Cheers, Ben
To heighten the point of one of my central themes in the song - which is that corporate America and politicians can find a way to sell anything or win an election by making any claim or out and out lying - the most absurd thing I could think of that people surely do not need but corp Amer would sell if they could make a dime on it - is a new Jesus.
