45 GRAVE - School's Out 12'' 1984

Third single by 45 Grave on Enigma. "School's Out," a classic that everyone should know, original from Alice Cooper, and was featured as bonus track on the re-released version of the debut Sleep In Safety. The flip "Partytime" is probably the bands most well-known song, and the single version is shorter in length and notably heavier, with more smoothly flowing lyrics and a shorter introduction. Info from wiki: The song is about a five-year-old girl who is brutally raped, abused and killed by her mother and friends, and the events that followed. As Dinah explained: "It's based on a story that I read in a true crime mag. The insanity and cruelty went on. So that 'Partytime' is about child abuse but it is written as a tribute to the little girl, Sabine. The song is about what her family did to her and how she didn't deserve it".
