Hey, I know that song

I was sitting in church this morning and, during an interlude, the music director started playing "American Tune" by Paul Simon.  I thought to myself: "What a strange selection for church."  After the benediction, I asked her what song she had been playing and she said "O Sacred Head, Now Wounded."

Sure enough, my Billboard book reveals for "American Tune": "based on the classical piece 'O Sacred Heart' by Johann Sebastian Bach."  So there you go.
