    I think that was the point of his song......As I remember reading, his mother was a faithful Witness, and he used to attend, but pursued his music career and left when he was a teenager. He was still close to his mother, and wrote the song for her I guess to make it seem like the KH was more energetic than it really was.

    Lark Vhoories (spelling?) aka Lisa on Saved By the Bell. She was a soap star later in her career and I think quit her show or wouldn't do certain types of scenes (lovin') due to religious reasons.
