[@KalloSkull]

I also think there might be a hint of reference to the former band members in this song. There's actually a shit ton of layers and hidden meanings in the lyrics for how simple they are. The lines "You go down just like Holy Mary" and "Not just another bloody Mary" alone could be interpreted in at least like 6 different ways.

[@modergav]

And Marianna Cross. Don't forget about her. Ahahahaha

@@KalloSkull yeah You can read as: blow coke; A actual blowjob; Smoke; Or people put down.

I dont think its marijuana , it's a play on words with the Mariana cross.

[@gottisteinpopstar4032]

This song is about Weed. Mary On a Cross (Marijuana Cross... joint). Tickle you internally (the giggles), truth of the matter is I never let you go (still smoking it today), not just another Bloody Mary (not just another alcoholic drink), your beauty never really scared me (the propaganda never kept him away). Mary on a, Mary on a (Marijuana, Marijuana) Cross. It can sound like it’s about Sex, but it’s about Drugs, Marijuana to be precise. And it’s written in a way to piss religious people off. Exactly what happened here. Tobias Forge is smart like that.

[@Spin9za]

I love your acc, you mixed oomph! And ghost didn't u?

[@gottisteinpopstar4032]

That makes so much sense due to the fact that this song is set in the 60’s where that was the thing to do and with Tobias being who he is it makes perfect sense.

@@juansamudio1171 Not sure what other people believe, but I interpreted it as someone possessing a certain quality, characteristic and/or appearance that is seen as distasteful or ugly in society but the lyric "Your beauty never ever scared me." is him saying that he believes that despite all the hatred that is thrown on that certain thing he thinks it's beauty hence the lyrics.

[@juansamudio1171]

@@explosivemayhem6266 the song is about marijuana so I’m guessing the meaning of that like is about never being afraid of weed but I don’t see how it’s a line worth to die for it just sounds cool in my opinion. Now if I were to apply that line to a girl I liked and she broke someone heart to me that may add more meaning and make it a pretty sad line idk I’m not the best with Lyrics lol

[@explosivemayhem6266]

I love how this song is written. There are so many ways you can interpret the song, with yours both being popular along with my personal favorite as "Marry on a cross" sounding like "Marijuana Cross" AKA a Joint with the lines "You go down just like Holy Marry", "If you choose to run away with me, I'll tickle you internally.", and "Your beauty never ever scared me" being references to a "divine" hit that "tickles" your lungs and throat, and that the propaganda against the plant never really deterred them. This band is so skilled, and they deserve their success.

[@CorporalCookie]

Also in the fictional universe of the band, I think this song was supposedly written in 1969. But yeah, it's about marijuana.

Why 69? List me a song or songs from the late 60s that sound like this? I think this ghost song embodies more of the sounds from 70s.

[@maternitywardspawncamper5392]

Anthony Parraguirre This Song and Kiss the Go-Goat is supposed to have been written by Papa Nihil (Emeritus Zero) in ‘69, according to Ghost’s Chapter 8: Kiss the Go-Goat and the whole KZbin series they’ve made.

[@henkdegraaf1609]

It's the sound and style from the early sixties, like the mersey beat. Tobias created a musical freedom with Papa Nihil as the first Ghost singer from the sixties. The story says the put out a single "Satanic panic" in the sixties and rereleased it in 2019. So funny if you've seen the the video series.

[@Pawlacz2137]

Nah, this 2 songs (from EP) are clearly reference to Fire of Unknown Origin from BOC, its like almost straight taken from this album, and it was early 80. Seriously, go check any song from this album, its straight Ghost.

My favorite song from the '69 vault. I always took Mary On A Cross to be a reference to marijuana and the free love and drug use of the late 60's and early '70's. Plus marijuana can be know to "tickle you internally". Also Ghost had a female back up singer for all of the Prequelle album cycle tours.

One way I can think of how the line "Mary on a cross" could make sense in a Christian context is that Mary was there when Jesus was crucified and had to watch her son be tortured to death. So you could say that she felt such empathy for her child's suffering that she was on the cross with him in spirit.

[@Ziro_kun]

Another Christian here. I’m starting to like this song based off the melody, but I’m very skeptical because of the lyrics (mostly because of the band). If it were written by a different band or had changes to the lyrics, I’d jam to this song repeatedly.

[@garyking3389]

@@mathildahernandez7438, That’s where I’m at, too. I’ve asked my pastor through text if it is okay to listen to a song like this even if the band may be satanic, and he advised to listen to other songs. “There are other songs to listen to” he said. But it can be confusing because I’ve listened to Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean (about sex) and he was a man of God. He went to Church and believed in God, too. Edit: And technically this song was written carefully to try and piss off some Christians. I’m not pissed (slightly disappointed), but it’s band members are quite literally dressed up as pastors wearing upside down crosses (which supports the Anti-Christ. And that is something you shouldn’t ever do). One of the few reasons I even bother listening to this is because I can see this as a background song for a fight scene in a movie (and I’m a movie freak).

@@Giulia-om2gl, I’m just very skeptical because some Christians don’t like the sound of it (my pastor for example) and some of them do. And some, like me, is in that grey area in between. I mean no disrespect to any other Christians or to God just by listening to it, but one of the only few reasons I like it is because (like you said) the melody is pretty good (and by that, I mean it’s quite beautiful). I’m okay with the lyrics (not all of them), but that’s it for me.

It's a spoof on 60s music and in the Ghost mythology this is the long lost single of an earlier papa that failed as portrayed in the Kiss the Go Goat video. And the line "Mary on a" is sung just like marijuana in the hippie vibe of the 60s.

Even though I'm not raised a christian (not really) it's always nice to watch your videos to learn new things about where a lot of western beliefs, traditions and thought processes actually came from (of course a lot of it came from the Bible, which I never read but of course inevitably influenced me quite a lot). Did you know Ghost actually has two girls (Ghoulettes) in the band now? They're not on this record (this is only Forge's vocals layered on top of one another) but one of the Ghoulettes sings backing vocals live so go watch some of their recent awesome liveshows with the all new Papa Emeritus IV!

It's interesting that you mention Evangelism and its views on female sexuality, because Ghost in their songs are actually known to be very vocal against this kind of thought-process / religious view. Many of their lyrics are about objecting this kind of suppression of female sexuality, or the views of it being "evil" or "satanic". Their second album, especially, is largely almost themed around this subject.

I was raised Catholic and through my catacysm we read about Mary having additional children with Joseph

[@benniebennieboo]

Your beauty never really scared me😭 I watched my mom turn from a beautiful woman to an older version and only I can see the beauty.

Theory: Mary is on the cross in place of Jesus during the Crucification of Jesus. The song (with Cardinal Copia/Papa IV) is also about his mother, Sister Imperator, standing in front of the gun for her child against Nihil. Nihil wanted Cardinal gone, and thought since he wasn't an Emeritus that he wasn't fit for the role... But the Clergy is supposed to be a vote, not Jacksonian passing of office to family and friends. Nihil was draining the power and potential from all of his children. Not to mention the murders of I, II, and III.

It’s about drugs

You are 100 percent spot on about the Stranger things soundtrack 80’s Vibes. Should so rock you like a hurricane by the Scorpions since its on there :)

[@Lubetube111]

I love the title of this album, "Seven inches of Satanic Panic"

[@eddieotakara6938]

I think this song takes place in the 60’s along with the kiss the go-goat song with the “original” papa and this is the album that he made as the Ghost front man (in a story line perspective) and this is the song he wrote for the sister (what i assume to be his girlfriend or wife in kiss the go-goat) and he’s singing this song go her after she walked out on him when he kissed the girls at the concert of go-goat. And he’s remembering everything that they have gone through

The change from the vibe at the start and the Mary on a cross lines is crazy

[@imonlyhumanafterallspinningguy]

Best thing about your reaction's are the Christian interpretation afterwards. Big props! //History- and religion interested atheist.

[@MotoFitzy]

You guys got a Papa!!!!! That's awesome!

[@WillowTheWolfOfTSP]

I don’t get addicted to songs easily but wow it caught my vocal chords easily and I see nothing wrong that 😂

[@shiruki8974]

While ghost doesn't have female vocalists they have two female band members! One playing they keytar and one playing a piano(I think it's a piano).They're called the Ghoulettes. ALSO the background vocals in this song are done by one of the Ghouls who have a golden high and buttery voice. He is referred to as Aether by fans

[@dansweet6793]

As a Christian I love Ghost. been a fan for 3 years, you should also check out NIGHTWISH they are a Finish Symphonic Metal band.

[@rickstrom5499]

Masterpiece...🇸🇪

[@ighost1735]

I always thought it was about a relationship. Mary on a cross= woman that had something bad happen ( like Mary being crucified) if you think about it like that, the song could make sense that way as well.

[@jordede]

He estado toda la cancion mirandola a ella viendola disfrutar la cancion. De verdad parece que la ha sentido muy fuerte y le ha gustado mucho, y cada vez que veo el video empatizo mas con ella. es como tener la misma sensacion los dos

[@Erika-qk6bd]

Ghost is my praise music. It gives me the feeling of a church that is all accepting.

[@trashyeyebrows3667]

Hey there, Just another Christian. I absolutely Love Ghost and its Just a amazing Band

[@Arkeis121]

I saw that smile of intrigue on her face when Papa said “tickle you internally.” He is quite the taint tickler, after all.
