Imagine – Queen & Paul Rodgers

There is an excellent version of John Lennon’s Imagine performed by Queen and Paul Rodgers at their Hyde Park gig. Why is this entry filed in the Music and the Atheism categories? Roger Taylor’s reaction to the no religion too… line. Apparently in the USA that line is often changed to read as one religion or even taken out altogether.

Roger has form on dislike of religion. His song called The Key (which could be one of my Desert Island Discs) contains the lyric:

Well you can search the whole wide planet
Down to viruses and germs
A sensible religion
Is just a contradiction in terms
