Talk:Cemetery Gates (Pantera song)

So who is it that can't spell?
So who is it that can't spell "cemetery", Pantera or us? - Nunh-huh 05:24, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Looks like us (along with almost half of the internet).   Amazon, All Music, and the back cover of the cd all spell it the right way, though, so I moved the page.  Nice catch. ×Meegs 13:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Cemetry is the way its spelt by The Smiths, it might be a British thing. XdiabolicalX 00:16, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Falsetto
I have talked to many singers that say the outro is not falsetto and is actually sung from the diaphragm and the head (similar to Halford's singing). Any thoughts? BrainRotMenacer 01:54, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes you are right. I'm also a singer. Its not a falsetto it's a scream. There are many techniques of getting high notes, one of them is screaming. Freddie from Queen used this technique, but also falsetto. --Comicspiotrus (talk) 14:33, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

What does this mean anyway?
I'm quoting from the article:

"The song also features Vinnie Paul on drums and Rex Brown on bass. Although the drumming and bass-playing is less of a factor than the guitar-playing and vocals, they still add to the song's overall effect."

This has basically no meaning at all.

Yeah, I removed it. That statement would have some relevance if it couldn't be applied to almost any other metal song (except maybe nu-metal, which is the only heavy metal sub-genre that isn't guitar based). You may as well copy and paste that on the entry for "Master of Puppets", "Angel of Death" or "Darkness Descends". I removed both the statement that Dimebag was known as "Diamond Darrell", as it had virtually no relevance to the article, and the statement that it demonstrated a band from Texas could be popular. May as well put that in every other entry on Pantera or their songs. Cronos12390 22:53, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

What does this song mean?
Does anybody have any idea? There are obviously some pretty sinister themes at play here. The "Reverend" character and the part about throwing the narrator's youth away make me wonder if the song has something to do with child abuse, possibly even molestation. It is pretty clear that the speaker is dealing with some painful memories or unresolved issues from the past and has determined to confront his worst fears, i.e. walking through the gates of the cemetery. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.63.58.179 (talk) 04:21, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
