The Four Noble Truths

I bet that if Buddha had gotten his head screwed on right he would have gotten into the songwriting game instead of messing about with seven whole years of mortifying his flesh and all that dread business. I mean, really? That some kind of radical diet, dude!

Here are four songs that Buddha might have wished he had written in order to more effectively illustrate his Four Noble Truths:

1. “You can’t always get what you want.” (The Rolling Stones)

2. “It’s just an illusion, illusion, illusion.” (Imagination)

3. “Always look on the bright side of life!” (Monty Python – well, Eric Idle really)

4. “If you’re gonna do it, do it right.” (Wham)
