I'm atheist, I love traditional Christmas carols and some hymns.

I also love the soundtrack to Saved! (and the film itself) though I probably wouldn't want to listen to it separately from the film.

A good tune is a good tune.

Ironically, we never sang one of my favourite hymns at school - I vow to thee my country - because it was considered putting patriotism above god.
