Hey Judah

Like Mike Oldfield, Paul McCartney performs right under the 27 ton bell, singing "Hey Jude" - or is it, "Hey Judah" - after all, they are in Jerusalem, aren't they?

  1. Another popular British band, Coldplay, has a hit song called...'Viva La Vida'...with the words "Jerusalem bells" in the chorus (be sure to check the lyrics to this one).

    Ironically, the Book of Jude is an appropriate read for us in light of this too.

    Keep looking up!

    In Christ,

  2. You need to read my site more :)

    A while back I was talking tons about the song and it's relationship with London/Jerusalem...

    I think it's a song about the antichrist.

    Thanks Jeff for your comments.

  3. Haha! I figured as much. I agree with you about the overt dark spiritual element to the lyrics, which almost reads as a script for the first half of today's Opening Ceremony. I'm just surprised they didn't have Coldplay perform tonight. Keep up the good work for Him!

    In Christ,
    Jeff

  5. Paul McCartney forgets the lyrics to 'Hey Jude'.

    He said: “It's funny. I sometimes forget those. It's a devilish lyric. I occasionally do forget them...."

    He said, "It's a devilish lyric."

    Interesting choice of words.

    People are saying it's a song about John Lennon, others say heroin...the needle is under the skin. Which made me think of a needle or shot..like a shot you would need to get from a bio weapon virus. Maybe reaching there.

    Book of Jude:

    These are spots in your feasts of
    charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; - Jude 1:12

    Made me think of the ceremony which included: clouds, trees - plucked up the roots. That was shown.

    Twice dead: They that go into the second death.

    But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and
    whoremongers, and sorcerers, and
    idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. - Revelation 21:8
