Re: Songs with cool stories behind them
that reminds me of "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple.
The lyrics pretty much explain it all, but it's about some big festival or party that was held in like Montreaux, Switzerland by a lake, and some idiot with a flare gun caught Frank Zappa's place on fire, IIRC. The place burnt down, and the smoke hovered over the water, inspiring the lyric "Smoke on the Water...fire in the sky..."
