Patti Smith, Franco Battiato, Dolly Parton sing Easter

ByJohn

Even the Easter holiday, like the Christmas one, has its fair number of symbolic songs. From American country music classics such as “The Old Rugged Cross” by Alan Jackson and “He's Alive” by Dolly Parton to more rock and controversial songs such as “Easter?” of Jefferson Airplane, passing through Patti Smith and Franco Battiato. Here are some of the many songs to listen to today, some because they are precisely on the theme of resurrection, others just because they have the word 'Easter' in the title and still others because they refer to rebirth in general.

Happy listening and happy Easter.
