St. Matthew Passion: "Gebt mir meinen Jesum wieder!" aria (mvt. 42)
You will be humming this one for days! Even if you didn't know of this particular aria before hearing this episode of A Moment of Bach, it's impossible not to be charmed by this sprightly tune on a first listen. But there is also some fury and swift anger in the music -- the words are "Give me my Jesus back!" and they are shouted at the soldiers who have arrested Jesus on the night of His betrayal.
