30 Day Music Challenge: Day 2

Day 2: Song I like with a number in the title

Ministry: Psalm 23

I first heard Ministry in the film 'Hardware' by Richard Stanley. I loved that film, and I loved their music. Soon after I had copies of Psalm 69 and Land of Rape and Honey. I eventually saw them live with @dana-varahi, shortly after we first met. I think it was our first gig together. This was part of what was supposed to be their last ever tour in 2008. They reformed and performed live shows again after a break of only 3 years! Still, I've got to love them...

I've chosen Psalm 23 from their 2004 album as its a little more obscure than Psalm 69. Both song names are occult references. Psalm 69 directly references chapter 69 of Aleister Crowley's "Book of Lies", which they quoted as a subtitle of the album, "The way to succeed and the way to suck eggs". 23 is a reference to Discordianism.

This challenge is a bit of fun, and not a contest. The idea is we find out about each others musical tastes, maybe learn some new tunes, and a little more about each other. To take part, start at Day 1 and post each day with a new tune, along with the meme image. Include the tags #music-challenge and #music and whatever other tags you feel appropriate to your post.

Optionally tag the person you copied and another person you'd like to see take up the challenge... ;)

I tag @alchemage as someone I'd like to see take part...

It would be much appreciative of us that cannot play the video for you to put the title of the song as a header. Thanks

Good point. I've updated it to make it more clear. The song was mentioned in the text, but a title makes it more obvious on a quick scan.

Nice idea! I'll give it a try. I hadn't listened to Ministry in years! Thanks.

I look forward to seeing your posts when you get started... :)

Cool! I found this while looking for a different cover version of your song from day 1. What are the odds? :)
