Get Behind Me Satan

Believe it or not, the title of this white stripes album isn't original. James Joyce actually coins the phrase in his book Dubliners. I guess you do learn something every day.

Re: Get Behind Me Satan

Yeah, I picked up on that before. It's still fascinating though.

Re: Get Behind Me Satan

You don't think ol' Joyce might have been slightly inspired by the New Testament? Check Gospel of Matthew 16:23 or Mark 8:33 :-)

Re: Get Behind Me Satan

You're all wrong, the album title is a homage to N.Y. Islanders goalie Miroslav Satan. Since he's the goalie, he's behind everyone. Although I could be wrong, I think his name is actually pronounced Shit-on. What do I know? I hate hockey.

Re: Get Behind Me Satan

That makes sense :-)

Re: Get Behind Me Satan

How the hell am I wrong when I said the title is fascinating? I didn't state any facts.

Oh, Lord...
