Too good to be true

Posted by on February 6 at 15:45 PM

Via Drudge: Michael Jackson might soon be working with members of the Catholic Church to produce a sing-along for a few of the late John Paul II’s prayers.

Father Giuseppe Moscati of the Edizioni Musicali Terzo Millennio, which specializes in church music and organizes musical events at the Vatican, said his company had the rights to 24 of Pope John Paul’s prayers and wanted to put together a group of international artists to set them to music.

Jackson’s keen to work on the project, and Father Moscati is considering his proposal, which might or might not include children’s songs like:

“I’m not a Priest if you call me Big Daddy”
and
“There’s Candy in My Pocket and the Lord is with Me!”
or the simple lullaby (and insta-classic)
“Get in the van.”

Cheers to new friends and new beginnings, kids.
