Sainthood

TEGAN & SARA Sainthood (2009 UK 13-track CD album - Tegan and Sara's sixth studio album, 'Sainthood', addresses secular themes of devotion, delusion and exemplary behaviour in the pursuit of love and relationships. Inspired by emotional longing and the quiet actions we hope may be noticed by the objects of our affection, 'Sainthood' is about obsession with romantic ideals. In the service of relationships we practice being perfect. We practice our sainthood in the hope that we will be rewarded with adoration. As we are driven to become anything for someone else, we sometimes become martyrs for our cause. Love, like faith, can never be held in an individual's hands. But the story of a great love affair – especially one that is unrequited or has ended too soon – can be woven like scripture or a bedtime story. And so the themes of 'Sainthood' are tied together by this simple title, borrowed, with great respect, from the lyrics of the Leonard Cohen song 'Came So Far For Beauty': I practiced all my sainthood / I gave to one and all / But the rumors of my virtue / They moved her not at all)
