http://blossomhead.com - About the song - More Famous Than Jesus - Written by Blossomhead When I wrote More Famous Than Jesus I was thinking about John Lennon and the hoo ha that happened when he stated the obvious fact that the Beatles meant more to the people of his generation at the time than Jesus did. From there I thought about how the personalities of the great masters have become more famous than that which they were trying to teach us. So I tried to write a song about how it made me feel, the lies and twisted half-truths handed down through the centuries and how easy it can be to be seduced by the great lie. I don't know whether other people have experienced the spin it can create in a person who is walking the path but I know that as long as I breathe I will never follow the lie. Hitler is a perfect example of a follower and messenger of the great lie and Martin Luther King was an example to me of someone who followed the truth as best he was able to, showing great courage and conviction against seemingly impossible odds. Although the traffickers of the great lie had him assassinated his example still lives on and inspires many who struggle daily with their path through life. I decided to use as an example the three religions that have had the most affect on the human race throughout history, Christianity, Islam and Buddhism. I don't know if I really succeeded in getting this message across, some people get it and some don't but like all who try to find their way through the web of lies and deceit that litter this world I tried and I guess in the attempt I have succeeded in some way. So remember that it is not the messenger but the message that is most important. It is not the lie but the truth that will set you free.
