Boringly canonical, no hip-hop, Mariah Carey or darkwave, only one token album made by a black person. Does the Pope even like music?

Bizarrely, I just created this Catholic Rock playlist for Rhapsody late last week, in honor of Ash Wednesday coming up. (No Tom Lehrer "Vatican Rag," Bruce Springsteen "It's Hard To Be A Saint In The City," Pop-O-Pies "The Catholics Are Attacking," or Billy Ward & His Dominoes "St. Therese Of The Roses" available on the site, sadly.):

Can't wait to see the Archbishop of Canterbury's rival list of slammin' tunes and red hot beats. Something to really get the vicar's tea party jumping.

It was the "Some might say they don't believe in heaven/Go and tell it to the man who lives in hell" line that sold them.

basically with Fagan and Fleetwood Mac on there, it seems like we should invite the pope to 77

AFP - 55 minutes agoVATICAN CITY - Pope Benedict XVI has urged Irish bishops to "restore the credibility" of the Roman Catholic Church rocked by a paedophilia priest scandal, the Vatican said on Tuesday. "The presence of Michael Jackson on our recent top ten albums list is a disgrace," claimed the Pontiff. "That spot should've been held by Sufjan Stevens."
