Today’s Sound of Fundamentalism is video clip of a woman singing I Put a Spell on You at the Church by the Glades. If I didn’t know this video was shot during an Evangelical church worship service, I never would have guessed it. Church by the Glades, pastored by David Hughes, is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention.
I put a spell on you
‘Cause you’re mine
You better stop the things you do
I ain’t lyin’
No I ain’t lyin’
You know I can’t stand it
You’re runnin’ around
You know better daddy
I can’t stand it cause you put me down
Yeah, Yeah
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
You’re mine
I love ya
I love you
I love you
I love you anyhow
And I don’t care
If you don’t want me
I’m yours right now
You hear me
I put a spell on you
Because you’re mine
Church, you say? Heyyyymen! I believe!
WTF did I just watch???
I was there for that. The teaching that week was based on Harry Potter. After last week’s Halloween service, I’m thinking of going back to my old church. CBG has been leaving me feeling very empty lately.
