Prepare Yourself

THERE’S A COMET IN THE SKY, AND JUDGMENT DAY IS NIGH…

So begins the latest track, Prepare Yourself. On a sunny day in the park, Maggie and her church group evangelize the Good Word of the Gospel and warn of the coming end times. This song captures the playbook driving modern evangelical Christianity: a focus on the end of the world, the need to accept salvation or else risk the eternal fires of damnation, and the directive to tell as many others as possible.

It’s a super upbeat track– to me reminiscent of George Michael’s Faith. Fun and charismatic, and sure to lure some new folks into the fold. At the same time, the lyrics warn of what happens if you don’t go along… Give it a listen now!

I was originally planning to release Prepare Yourself as the first single teasing out the full album, but I decided to go with Peace On Earth as a happy message for the holidays back in December. And then, as fate would have it, I came to find out that the timing of this release couldn’t be more perfect, because… there actually IS a comet in the sky. Right now. C/2022 E3 (ZTF), is currently passing through the inner solar system and about to whip past Earth, making its closest passage of our planet, its perigee, between Feb. 1 and Feb. 2. And it may just be bright enough to be spotted with the naked eye.

Look up; it’s closer every night.

You can’t make this shit up.
