What's The Connection? Holy 2

The word sounds different depending on who's singing it, and this volume has more range than it probably should. Rock, funk, art-pop, doom metal, and a Japanese all-female shred band all checked in, and the Connection holds up better than you'd expect from a word that's been claimed by everyone from the devout to the profane. The first holy one set a low bar, so this one had nowhere to go but up. It must be late or early, because I hate what I wrote here. Hopefully the music is better than what I came up with here.

What's The Connection? Holy 1

Well, today is Good Friday, so it is time to pull out my Holy connection. The first thing I think of when trying to remember songs with Holy in the title is Neil Diamond, but he's not on this volume. I instead used the cover from UB40 which is also good. It's always good if you can find a Zappa song and I did. Of course Led Zeppelin. There's even Taylor Swift. The best coincidence is Golden Palominos and Golden Earring coming right after each other. It's sorted by BPM, so it really is coincidence.
