Did somebody already say Slayer - Bloodline??

I try to stay away from songs about Vampires, just not my thing, they dont interest me, much as in songs about Santa Claus, or the easter bunny dont.

Are you fucked?! I only ever listen to songs about the Easter Bunny. 

 

But actually, are there any?

Here's an interesting one...

 

So, back in the 80s when "Kiss of Death" was written, the song was orignally about a one night stand resulting in the man contracting AIDS.... fast forward to the mid 00's, and a young lady posts on the Dokken messageboard about how she loves the song "Kiss of Death" and it's tale of a Vampiress taking the life of her victim. Of course, alot of the board members immediately corrected her regarding the meaning of the song, but then Don himself chimed in and said that (paraphrasing here, as I don't remember his exact words) although he'd never made that connection before, that YES, the lyrics perfectly lent themselves to a tale about a Vampiress, and if that's the way she, or anyone else, wanted to interpret the song, that was cool, and perfectly fine with him.  I think the song makes perfect sense as a vampire tale. :banger: 

 

A brief encounter
Like wind through the trees
It came so suddenly
But then it was gone
Like it had never been
How could i have ever seen
A lost heart
Will take your soul

How could i have known
How could i have known
As she took me in her arms
And brought me to an end
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise
As she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel
With the devil's charm
She promised paradise
With the kiss of death

I tried to stop
As she held out her hand
But the fire was burning inside
She knew what i wanted
She gave it and more
But now i must pay the price
We were strangers
Passing in the night

How could i have known
How could i have known
As she took me in her arms
And brought me to an end
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise
As she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel
With the devil's charm
She promised paradise
With the kiss of death

As she took me in her arms
I felt the devil's charm
Suddenly i see
The final destiny
With the kiss of death
The kiss of death

She promised paradise
As she lied upon her bed
Like a fallen angel
With the devil's charm
She promised paradise
With the kiss of death

With the kiss of death

Yeah, I remember reading an interview with Don mentioning the AIDS thing.

It's really cool of him to respond by saying that at the end of the day he's happy with different interpretations.
