Watch your back, Rep. Thaddeus McCotter! Another 2012 Republican candidate’s attempt at making sweet music has appeared on the internet, and it’s a doozy– introducing Sunday Morning*, a gospel album recorded by former Godfather’s Pizza CEO Herman Cain. Precious little is know about the 13-track album, which appeared on the internet today, but the soulful baritone crooning is certainly worth a listen.

Cain had certainly not mentioned anything about a past life as a gospel singer, but a few tracks off of Sunday Morning made their way online today via the Daily Caller. It’s mostly standard gospel fare and mostly slow tracks at that, with one standout single: “This is the Day,” a fast-paced track reminiscent of “Footloose” that certainly wins the prize for funnest danceable track on the album.

It is worth noting that it not yet 100% certain this is Herman Cain– Dave Weigel notes that the Cain campaign has yet to comment on the album, but “it’s real, it was published 15 years ago by GLC Music, Selah Sound Production & Melodic Praise Records, and it is not being distributed now by the Cain campaign.” With McCotter on guitar, Cain on vocals and maybe some keytar work by Jon Huntsman, we’ve got ourselves a band!

Below the Daily Caller’s song widget (Weigel found a couple of more in downloadable format). Really, give “This is the Day” a listen!:

*not to be confused with the Maroon 5 song of the same name.

I wouldn’t associate that voice with Cain but singing can be like that. If it’s him he does have a nice singing voice.

Jon Stewart will never be able to see another gospel style song…

Sounds great, except for the cheesiness of the 1980s synth sound. Real horns would have sounded alot better.
Here’s a nicely done gospel song.

I like Herman all the more now.

I only hope that a “mash up” will be soon produced… My preference, “Enter the 36 Chambers” meets “Sunday Morning”… “WuTang Cain ain’t nothin to f*** with!”

Being a member of the Christian Taliban is not a race it’s a choice.

80% of this country self identifies as Christian fool. Singing about love and forgiveness, yeah thats radical stuff.

Heard three cuts from this album. It’s very well done and Herma Cain has quite a good voice.
