Inspired by the movie "Serenity" and its themes of love and belief. Shiny!

Inspired by my Dad. I've been wanting to write a song for him for nine years. I guess it needed to marinate.

This classic hymn was recorded especially for the Strange Sandwich Ducks Unlimited CD. It reached #1 on the World/Folk Covers Songs chart at Mp3.com.

I'm not familiar with the history of Buddhism, so when I was learning the bassline to this song, I didn't know it was "Gotama Buddha." For some reason, I kept singing along... "God Tumble Buddha." I knew that was silly, but that's what it sounded like to me. I love the vibe of this song. It always makes me smile.

This song recognizes that the key to true spiritualism is within us... not with any messiah. Chanting "Nam Myoho Renge Kyo" is the most fundamental part of the practice of Buddhism and recognizes this. It allows each individual to tap into his or her innate enlightened nature.
