The Forerunners of Christ with Saints and Martyrs, 1423-4, Fra Angelico

On Christian calendars it's All Saints' Day. We're using that as an excuse to make a list of songs that mention saints. Share a favorite and we'll spin a set.

Hear your requests weekdays after 9 a.m.
Today's set:

  • The Smiths "Bigmouth Strikes Again"
  • The Kennedys "St. Mark's Square"
  • John Prine "The Sins of Memphisto"
  • Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen "Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)"
The Public.

Supported by The Public Theater, presenting Goddess, a musical inspired by the myth of Marimba, who created songs from heartbreak.
