The Highway Code, Part One

I was surprised and slightly overwhelmed at the enormous public response to my last. There's really no way to repeat that performance, so I won't even bother to try. Instead, here is a lovely thing I found today, after a long absence.

I'm a lifelong agnostic, but, for reasons to dull to go into here, I learned to sing in one of those very high Anglo-Catholic churches that are so enamoured of ritual, incense and trappings of all kinds that they rather embarrass the real Catholics, who find it all a bit much, really. This meant I got exposed to all sorts of beautiful religious music, including the psalms. I rarely get a chance to indulge these days, but I can still chant a mean psalm.

Anyway, ages ago someone played me a recording of the Highway Code sung as a psalm - and this morning I found a link to it. Here it is. I hope you like it.
