The boys over at Threedonia.com posted a clip showing Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova singing the song “Lies”, which was part of the soundtrack for the movie Once.. I was listening to it this morning before I headed out for the Greek Orthodox……

The track you played has some significance to our current Presidential campaign. I don’t know how you can’t think of the Obamessiah as you read this:

“I think it’s time, we give it up
And figure out what’s stopping us
From breathing easy, and talking straight
The way is clear if you’re ready now
The volunteer is slowing down
And taking time to save himself

The little cracks they escalated
And before you know it is too late
For making circles and telling lies

You’re moving too fast for me
And I can’t keep up with you
Maybe if you slowed down for me
I could see you’re only telling
Lies, lies, lies
Breaking us down with your
Lies, lies, lies
When will you learn”
