About a boy

It was during a Christmas show in a small German town near Leipzig
last year that an unexpected ghost from Rae Spoon's past surfaced with
the exuberance of a revival-tent preacher.
The 27-year-old singer was performing in an abandoned building in the
former East Germany, where a group of squatters had set up a makeshift
cultural centre for the evening. There was the usual sampling of
Europe's healthy left wing in the house: vegans, anti-fascists, gays,
lesbians and the transgendered.
Not exactly the sort of place one would expect to hear a spirited run
through the American gospel tune, I'm Working on a Building, a
thumping ode to unwavering Christian faith in which the narrator
promises to "quit my sinning" and "start my praying."
