You may not consider it scary, but it's five macabre minutes that make me shiver a bit every time I hear it. It may seem tame by today's standards, but this song is nearly 35 years old. Whether you like the band or not isn't all that relevant in my opinion. Everyone should hear this song at least once. If you'd rather not then just read the lyrics. It works either way. The way you were talking about that song made me think of Gloomy Sunday. Don't know if you've ever heard of it, but it is a "legit" cursed song. The person who wrote it committed suicide, as did about five or six other people who sung it. It was so bad the song had been band in many countries for a while, not sure if it still is or not, but yeah. Figured I'd share that cheery little datum. I wasn't sure how to interpret "it is a 'legit' cursed song" until I looked up Gloomy Sunday. Holy snot! Definitely a worth while read. I enjoyed the song as well, but it's certainly overshadowed by it's history. This thread has offered up some choice reading. I jammed out to some Sabbath too. Bonus!
