French Kiss presents:
Easter arrives this coming weekend, so it’s a good time to comb thru all those songs out there that have religious themes: God, Jesus, Satan, Heaven, Hell, sin, salvation, church, prayer, the beginning, and the afterlife. But these are Saloon-style songs, not hardcore religious or gospel tunes, and are just some of the songs that I’ve grouped together in my own mind over the years as ‘Songs of Faith & Doubt’.
