Despite ripping off part of the riff from Black Sabbath's "Electric Funeral", the end result turned out quite satisfactory and the vocals are a definite upgrade over Ozzy's voice. I first discovered this song back in the days of cassette tapes, from a very good friend, but since I wasn't into this much rock at the time, it remained overlooked until, a couple of years ago, I did some extensive web prowling trying to build back a Cargo discography from their original period. I believe Ovidiu Ioncu "Kempes" to have been the best Romanian rock vocalist of all time, his voice having the effortless capacity to send shivers up one's spine and have long regretted the way he chose to leave the music scene back in the early 2k years. Setting aside the personal troubles of the man, if one was ever to assemble a catalogue of the best Romanian rock, this song would undoubtably belong very high up in its ranks. On a more personal note, this song about death, was unfortunately revived late last year after an unexpected brush with its protagonist but whose encounter, so far, we've been lucky enough to avoid.
