deris uses harsh vocals, it's not that happy. They also use heavy bass and guitars in a heavy metal rage like fashion, it's no future world.

I seriously think you guys are making a mountian out of a molehill, this is not the first time Helloween has ever tackled a serious subject and to tell you the truth I never thought of it as a happy song, I knew what it was about when I first heard it and I always thought it had an air of something sinister to it as it's supposed to. As has been said before it's more of a social commentary warning about these types of things.

Now I don't mind if you don't ever want to listen to the song again however don't start using this as an example of why people should hate Helloween, I refuse to listen to the music Mafia.

I understand why you can be surprised because you may not expect it from a band like Helloween. You may not think they can deal with serious and "hard-to-deal-with" topics, such as incest, because power metal traditionnaly talks about fantasy, or at least positive and even happy subjects. And you don't expect, according to the music, to find a heavy topic in such a song.

But I like the contrast, and find it good from a band like Helloween to talk about serious and real problems.

I say it again. I wasn't thinking before I wrote this yesterday. Forget about everything I wrote yesterday because it doesn't make any sense! Please forget about that! I didn't sleep the night before I wrote this, I was tierd because of this and because I had to do some work. When I wrote this I was tierd, didn't really think and was in a pissy mood. I shouldn't have wrote it at all. Just act like I never wrote it.

Again, I also think it is good that they talk about serious topic. I just don't like the way they combine such a Happy tune with such Heavy lyrics.

Ragehead:I wasn't really talking with you specifically however if I made you angry I'm sorry.

I just noticed there were a few other comments where people were trying to use that example you had as a reason why people should hate helloween.
