I know it isn't as famous perhaps as "Christian Woman" (which my active plays plenty during nights) and mabye even the "Cinnamon Girl" cover, but this is far and away my favorite TON song. And it's possibly the one best suited for Halloween as well, although there's possibly good ones on later albums (I only have Bloody Kisses).
The album version is roughly 11 minutes and when I have the time I usually give it a shot.

I know it isn't as famous perhaps as "Christian Woman" and mabye even the "Cinnamon Girl" cover Really? I've always understood this to be by far their most famous song. (My active plays "Christian Woman" plenty during nights) Lucky.[/Napoleon Dynamite] Then again, I don't have an active rock station, but if I did, they would be unlikely to play CW "plenty" during nights, if ever. ...but this is far and away my favorite TON song. Mine too. All 11 minutes and 15 glorious seconds of it. The 4+ radio/video edit is waaaay too short. And it's possibly the one best suited for Halloween as well, although there's possibly good ones on later albums (I only have Bloody Kisses). I have all their albums starting with Bloody Kisses and have copies of their first two ( Slow, Deep and Hard & The Origin of the Feces, whose original album cover was a closeup of (allegedly) Peter Steele's anus ) downloaded on my hard drive. Anyway, yeah BN1 is a tremendous Halloween song. Other good Halloween tracks they have include "Wolf Moon" off October Rust and "Creepy Green Light" off World Coming Down. Their songs and albums sometimes get a little long in the tooth and often it seems like Peter forces his lyrics into the songs, but their humor is so dry and dark I always buy their records, even if I don't revisit them often and tend to like each one a little less than the one before it. And yeah, the BN1 video shows what dry smartasses they are. It's also awesome for the only color in the video being the bright green of Peter Steele's eyes on the closeups of his face. 01. Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All) 02. Christian Woman 03. Love You to Death 04. Everyone I Love Is Dead 05. I Don't Wanna Be Me 06. Cinnamon Girl 07. My Girlfriend's Girlfriend 08. Everything Dies 09. Unsuccessfully Coping with the Natural Beauty of Infidelity (a.k.a. "I Know You're f***ing Someone Else") 10. September Sun 11. Black Sabbath 12. The Profit of Doom
