"sotd, 2009.10.26"
 
   Ard brought word of this back from a show she went to the other night, declaring that it was "a very Ignatine sort of song." I was intrigued by this, since I couldn't think of any song that was "very Ignatine", but lo, she was correct.

Ladies and gentlemen
We present our title bout for the evening
In this corner
Weighing in at one hundred and fourteen pounds
By way of the Sisters of Our Lady of the Immaculate Right Cross
With a record of twenty-three and one
With fifteen knockouts, three TKOs, two decisions, three conversions, and one exorcism
The High Priestess of Penance
The Pounding Penguin
The Assassin of the Passion
The Stinging Nun
and the Roman Catholic Wrecking Ball
From Dublin, Ireland
Sister Mary Catherine "The Habit Breaker" Inviolata

And in this scorner
Weighing in at an even eighty-two pounds
By way of the Order of St. Adelaide of Perpetual Confrontation
With a record of sixty-six and six
With one disqualification for using a ruler
The Vatican Vixen
The Pontiff's Pit Bull
The Original Sinner
The Homicidal Bride of Christ
The Assaulter from the Altar
The Nundertaker
And the Mother Superior of Kicking Posterior
From Mexico City
Sister Maria Teresa Garcia Graziela Aguilera Delgado Francisco Diego Arroyo Inigo Montoya Zapata Paqito El Guapo Abuelita de la "Boom Boom" Mendoza

In nomine Patris, et Fili, et Spiritu Sancti

Now let's get ready to rumble

- Paul and Storm
"Nun Fight"


The best thing about this song to me is that it's performed in a perfectly straight adaptation of the Gregorian style, as if the two singers were actually a pair of monks making the announcement. Also, I particularly like "The Order of St. Adelaide of Perpetual Confrontation".

   And the Reverend Clement Hedges will of course read all about it in his latest edition of Nun Wrestling... though he will, of course, hide it with a bestiary.

This, of course, assumes both of the Sisters of Total Lack of Mercy are made of plasticine.

   That's actually a pretty decent take on plainsong chant, too. Nice find.

   It was impressive to see them do it live. They never broke harmony, even on that last name. If they're playing near you, highly recommend their show. (Bonus points: they're playing a lot with Jonathan Coulton lately.)

This video is from the night before Wedge and I saw them do it, but it captures the vibe:

(The mp3 at paulandstorm.com is fine, but it *really* loses something without the synchronized hand gestures.)

   This song leaves me wondering if we'll ever actually see Brother Tommy in Warrior's Legacy. He is, after all, an Ignatine monk of a sort.
