It is not clear from the article if the lyrical references would best be linked to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (the book), The Wizard of Oz (1939 film) (the most famous movie), or something else. Right now the link is to a disambiguation page. Dpv 18:29, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
I have to disagree with the current article's statement that "Another Holy War" is about the Crusades. As I read the lyrics ( [1]), it seems to be written from Jesus' POV just before his crucifixion. Troy Baer 03:19, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
Correct me ,please, if I'm wrong, but as I know "Another Holy War" is not on Jesus, but just any other fake messiah. Damaged brain ( talk) 23:12, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
How is this song linked to the Neverending Story?? The title might seem to be inspired by it, but I can't spot any direct references to these stories. I'm changing this, for now. Cyanid ( talk) 14:34, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
A criticism to religious fanaticism nowadays? There is some of it in the very beginning of the song, but imho not enough to explain the whole lyrics. I think it's more about the hypocrisy of people, about someone realizing this but not feeling able to counter it because of inside fear and weakness. Then again, http://www.kulichki.com/fantasy/bg/analyre.htm gives a different analysis. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.45.182.248 ( talk) 11:01, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
The statement that "I'm Alive" is about the Death Gate Cycle is unsupported. It needs a reference, or, in the event that no such reference exists because that is not what the song is about, the statement needs to be changed. "I'm Alive" is plainly about a video game, probably Nethack or Diablo, but that's just what I've gathered from listening to the lyrics. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.103.74.231 ( talk) 05:21, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
Well, I always believed that this song was about Michael Ende's "Neverending Story". In any case, even though its not cited in the reference, the lines "and see the tale that never ends" is a clear reference to the The Old Man of Wandering Mountain of Ende's book. -- 187.15.132.10 ( talk) 00:59, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
