While The Killers In High Places Say Their Prayers Outloud
This is as good a line as any Leonard ever wrote. During the song Anthem notice how the crowd cheers as the lyric is sung. The singer seems to be caught off guard. Maybe they are cheering because they are thinking about the current U.S. president who speaks of God as he sends young people off to die in a useless war. Maybe they are thinking of what Jesus said of the hypocrites who pray in public to win popular appeal, when they should be praying in private. Anyway it's a great moment in a great tribute concert film.
