This entire Bon Iver album, titled "22, A Million," is about a struggle with religion. Within the song "33 'GOD'" they beg deep questions of God, one of which being "why are you so far from saving me" which is a direct quote from Psalm 22. This brings the listener back to the root of this entire questioning, the Bible.

In Kanye's song "Saint Pablo," he warns the listener "don't stare at my money too long, it's Medusa." He is referring to his money as Medusa as a way to tell others to mind their business when it comes to what he is and isn't making, or else they will be "turned to stone," really meaning that they will be frozen on their own journey to success.

Throughout The Road there are many biblical allusions but one of the most significant is the allusion to the Garden of Eden with the "good basement." They stumble upon this paradise where they are able to be free of their worldly concerns and shames, but this perfect life is only temporary and they must eventually be reintroduced to their dangerous and sinful reality.

In The Kite Runner, Sohrab must defeat an intimidating and successful bully, Assef, using a slingshot in order to protect and save Amir. In this allusion, Sohrab is David, Assef is Goliath, and Amir is Israel. The message Hosseini is conveying is the strength that the underdog can have when the price is high enough, even against an enemy that seems invincible.

Coolio raps "as I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I take a look at my life and realize there's nothing left." This is an allusion to Psalm 23 where King David speaks on his past as a shepherd boy, feeling no fear because the Lord is with him.

The entire story of the Chronicles of Narnia is the creation story, where Edmund eats the turkish delight and dies because of the deep magic he has succumbed to, and Aslan the Lion is able to die in Edmund's place because of a much deeper, more meaningful magic.

The Great Gatsby is notorious for the parties he throws in an attempt to feel close to people without actually doing the heavy lifting. The much less ill-intentioned inspiration for this can be found in Jesus' use of dinners as a way to actually bring people closer together and closer to him.

In The Sorcerer's Stone, Harry, Ron, and Hermione find themselves face to face with a three-headed dog on their way to find the stone. This is an allusion to Hades' dog, Cerberus, for not only the obvious reasons (the fact that it's a dog with three heads), but also because this dog is, in a way, guarding hell; what the group is about to encounter is their own sort of personal hell.

The Starbucks logo began as a much more explicit version and has slowly evolved to be barely recognizable as a siren, but the original intention is still present. The allusion to the siren is meant to be mystical, and to draw the customer in to the charm of the product/company they are buying in to.

The creation story is the tale of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, where they live a perfect life free of sin with one caveat: if they are to eat the forbidden fruit they will be banished from the garden and will create a world of sin and shame for themselves and everyone that comes after them. Snow White and her relationship with the apple that brings her to a "sleeping death" is an allusion this aspect of the creation story. Snow White is Eve, the apple is the forbidden fruit, and the prince that comes along to bring her back to life is Jesus, providing a second chance even after the grave mistake she has made.

As Harry walks through Godric's Hollow, him and Hermione happen upon the graveyard that Harry's parents are buried in. Their tombstone reads "The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed is Death," which is a direct quote from Corinthians, a book of discussion surrounding rising from the dead. This is extremely relevant to this book because this contains the foreshadowing for Harry's own sort of "resurrection."

Ty Segall sings "sound the Dionysus bell send them all back to hell" in a very loose allusion in his song "California Hills." He refers to Dionysus as a way to bring the sophistication of wine into the description of these people he despises so deeply while simultaneously referencing the immaturity of both Dionysus and the people he is surrounded by.

This song also contains plenty of Greek allusions, but one of the most significant is the mention of Aphrodite the goddess of love, because it is possible that this is the woman they are singing about throughout the entire song. They sing "her name is Aphrodite and she rides a crimson shell. And you know you can not leave her for you touched the crimson sands." These lyrics create an image of a woman who is enthralling and irresistible through the use of the Greek goddess that is the pinnacle of femininity.

In the song "Psyche" by Love Spirals Downwards, she sings of Eros holding the keys she seeks. The entire song is about blindly loving boy, and this line shows that this love was potentially unrequited but surely unfulfilling.

While this entire song is chock full of biblical allusions, one of the most significant is Kanye singing about how he bets his ex is "looking back like a pillar of salt. This allusion to Lot's Wife looking back at Sodom and turning into a pillar of salt as consequence equates leaving Kanye to a punishable sin.

The song "Lightning Bolts" by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds is basically just one big allusion to Zeus, but the easiest way to begin to unpack this is the first mention of Zeus. "Two lightning bolts were delivered to my room. They were gifts from Zeus" begins our narrator. Zeus, the Greek god of the sky, was not necessarily known for being the most empathetic god. He provides our narrator with the lightning bolts that he loves oh, so much, and we see the world around him through his eyes. It is a terrible world, where pigeons wear gas masks and people just don't mind their business. As our narrator is at almost peak annoyance, Zeus rips the lightning bolts from our narrator, sending him into a deep frenzy of depression.

With the knowledge that Nike is the goddess of victory, the allusion is simple. Nike is a sports brand that relies on the image of success to sell their products, and this access this in the most catchy and intentional way with both their name and their logo. Not only is the name Nike an allusion but it can also be said that the checkmark is reminiscent of goddess Nike's wings.

The song "There, There" by Radiohead begs the listener to "steer away from those rocks" just after telling them that "there's always a siren singing you to shipwreck." The allusion to sirens is clear and intentional, drawing up the sirens who sang beautifully and almost liltingly to draw sailors in. Radiohead takes the allusion to the next step, in that it can be said that their own singer sings with the impression of a siren, almost drawing the listener in to a shipwreck of emotion.

Kanye West is not one to be humble and this album title is no exception. Kanye himself has clarified that this name has to do with three men specifically, one of which being the Apostle Paul. He speaks highly of Paul's impact and reach. Not only is Kanye calling on Christianity's influence in his life, but he is referring to himself as a messenger with as much influence as Paul.

The song "Light and Heavy" by Switchfoot contains the lyrics "I'm feeling Icarus, I might've flown too high." Especially in the context of this song, these lyrics communicate the highs and lows of falling in, and subsequently out, of love. The author felt like they were soaring and they could just fly forever, until they realized that this euphoria had become a true detriment to their relationship leading to its ultimate collapse.

The name "trident" for a gum may seem a bit disconnected from what the product actually is, but there are a couple connections between the weapon of the sea and the advertiser's intentions. First off, the trident is known for being Poseidon, Greek god of the sea's, weapon of choice. It can be said that the weapon was "three-toothed," and gum is obviously chewed by teeth. There are also the connotations of great power, respect, and dignity that surround Poseidon, allowing the company to tap into this connotation to make their product seem more appealing (it's not just gum).
