What does the song black sabbath mean?
First of all, Black Sabbath is a musical group, not a song. Just as a Sabbath is a religious ceremony (such as a mass orservice), although the origin of the term has taken some divergenceover the years from its origin meaning, a "black" Sabbath would beakin to an "evil" Sabbath or ceremony. Hence, …witchcraft, etc. The idea is obviously some form of Demonic Devil Worship. This goesa step beyond mere morbid songs like Paint it Black, and WhiteRoom, which seem to involve funerals. The original members of Black Sabbath are not demonic devilworshippers, as they have been stereotyped due to their interest inthemes from the occult. They have been photographed quite famouslywearing rosaries or crosses around their necks on numerousoccasions. The title track for Black Sabbath, "I Grimlok", can be interpretedas having a figure or demon's shadow looming over you like the GrimReaper/angel of death. It is more of a presence or the moldy scentof old death; the finger pointing of the Grim Reaper coming to takeyour soul to the other side. ( Full Answer )
