Oh, it occurs to me that there are religious references in both Big
Time ("and I will kneel in a big church, as I pray to a big god... and
my heaven will be a big heaven and I will walk through the front
door") and In Your Eyes ("I see the doorway to a thousand churches").
Neither of which likely fit the category...
Looking at the discographies for Gabriel and Genesis I see
Visions of Angels - Genesis (not familiar with it)
The Guaranteed Eternal Sanctuary Man - Genesis - same
In the Beginning - Genesis - same
the Serpent - Genesis - same
Jesus He Knows Me - Genesis - same
Here Comes the Flood - Gabriel - also haven't heard it - might not be
a mythical reference
Blood Of Eden - Gabriel - haven't heard
There's a song about "the restless soul of gallileo" -- I don't
remember the artists name -- female... very philosophical song, but
it's about reincarnation ... sorta... I dunno, it's hard to
interpret... but I guess, it would fall into the religion category if
you include references to religious concepts and consider
reincarnation to be a religious concept (I don't know how you could
consider it to not be a religious concept).
Oh... and I forgot to mention I saw a song by the Monkees called
Jericho... haven't heard it, so I don't know what the content is...
If you include some older mythology, Jethro Tull recorded a song
entitled A Cold Wind to Valhalla. They also had a whole album entitled
"Christmas Album" with Ring Out Solstice Bells, A Christmas Song and
some others...
