(not sure about Colin, the other creative genius behind the band.) From reading his bio some time back, I know he went through a bad marriage, too, and many of his songs reflected that. They also seem to be into esotericism, and at least read something of the new age variety of beliefs. That much can be seen in their albums "Apple Venus" and "Wasp Star."

So, I'm going to laugh and guess that your initial question and response is that you liked what was in the song (or the lyrics anyway) and shocked that someone else has the same idea about worshiping the Goddess?

Thanks for talking about how you see the best a marriage can be (or any relationship for that matter.) I agree with your assessment, and it doesn't matter what one believes or doesn't.
