Cover art for Fire on High lyrics by Electric Light Orchestra

When I was in high school there was a preacher who would go around showing presentations of the evils of rock and roll. He would play "Stairway to Heaven" backwards and stuff like that. Anyway, He played this song and said that it was intended for Satan worshippers. What a load of shit he was. The band was just fooling around in the production studio. Yea, they wanted it to sound scary, but not in an satan worshipping kind of way. Freakin' fuck up world we live in. These types of people do not realize they are the cause of most of the problems in the world with their self-righteous way of thinking.

they actually did this because of the "I buried Paul" shit and other stuff that happened during the 60s and 70s.. :)
