When Half Past Four recorded this song, I decided that we needed a choir to round out the "religious" sway of the chorus. After all, the song was about a real god appearing on earth in the flesh and telling everyone there are no old gods at all, thereby creating world peace..and other chaotic stuff..anyway, my mother, who was a singer, was in a four part harmony choir at a church in Burlington. We asked if they would do it, and to our delight they were into it, so they congregated during one of their rehearsals in the church and we set up recording equipment and Igor, our keyboard player, taught them phrases in hebrew to sing and conducted the proceedings. They didn't know what words they were singing, (and some of them may not have approved of it if they knew) but they did it anyway and with great enthusiasm. I love that I can hear my mother singing the high note in one of the end notes. The part of "Biel" was sung by Dylan Goodhue who had arrived at the studio fresh off the tour bus of White Cowbell Oklahoma and was sleep deprived and probably needed a shower but he still brought those crazy high notes. I love performing this live and watching the crowd punch the air during our chanting Biel Biel! in a beautiful salute to our little tribute to the insanity of religion.
