   Actually, some of us, whenever the words "Alistair Crowley" or
or "pentagram ritual" are mentioned, think; "What are these people 
babbling on about." Let's just say that Kate believes in some silly
things. Please take it to e-mail, until you can find some specific
Kate content, beyond the fact that it was mentioned in the song.

   I'd like to see some specific analysis of the structure of the song,
the relationship of the the parts of the ritual to the angels mentioned
or anything at all, more than simply discussing the *fact* that the
ritual is in the song.
