Hva menes med "eighteen will become nine"?

[vikingkylling]

I sangen "Arrival" på albumet Abigail av King Diamond går teksten slik:

 

We know you've come to inherit what's yours (the mansion)

Take our advice and go back on this night

If you refuse eighteen will become nine...

 

Litt senere synger han

 

Jonathan laughed and said

"Get out of my way! I don't believe a word you say!"

The seven horsemen disappeared into the night

"Some day you'll need our help, my friend."

 

I think poor Jonathan was scared

Eighteen is actually nine.... it stuck on his mind.

 

 

Hva menes egentlig med "eighteen will become nine"?

Hei

1+8=9 så 18 =9. Men kjente ikke til verken låt eller gruppe (ikke min musikk) så søkte litt på nettet og fant dette:

18 is 9 (1+8=9) in numerology. The number 9 is, in some circles, the number of evil or The Devil.

 

And, yes, it also correlates with the pregnancy as realized by Jonathan...Abigail was 18...and she was pregnant for 9 months.

 

Also, something that is sometimes overlooked in the album...July 7, 1777 in numerology is 36...which is 9.

 

The number 7 is only an anomoly in the grander design to 9.

 

King uses numerology and other references to the dark side in all of his albums...thus the "9" reference in the MF album 9.

 

Also, as a side note...Abigail was evil only because she was unjustly killed by the Count...and wanted revenge on the family line. For more info and background, you'll definitely want to check out Abigail II if you haven't already.

 

Håper det hjalp

Det hjalp faktisk veldig mye, selv om det var en lite feil der. Abigail "was first born dead, the 7th day of July 1777." i følge den første sangen. Det var Miriam (kona til Jonathan) som var gravid.

 

Tror jeg skjønner mer av det nå, og platen ble om mulig enda bedre.

 

(og selvsagt har jeg Abigail II også, men den er dessverre ikke like bra. Jaja...)
