I love āBlack Weddingā. Itās one of the more fun, lighthearted, crazy songs on the album. The concept was me in a place of confliction, turning to this oracle to guide me, and where do I turn, what do I do from here? And that this higher power is putting me into a ceremony with myself to empower myself. āBlack Weddingā is about taking these dark things Iād experienced and turning that experience into this empowering ceremony where the black wedding is this empowerment of this strong strength in me, this independence in myself. Itās this beautiful black wedding. Itās that strength in the face of loss or heartbreak, or thinking something isnāt going to unfold the way you think. Itās not this happy white wedding. Thereās a strength in not getting that happy ending, that fairy tale ending. Instead of letting it break me or me lose myself, to take that experience and grow from it and empower myself from it. We have Rob Halford in this song, which was an honor. We shot a music video for it, and it was really paying a lot of tribute to him. Heās such an amazing guy. When he came to the shoot, he was just humble and sweet. We were so grateful to have him there with us. He had come to a show of ours, we met him, and we became acquaintances, we became friends and have grown a little relationship. So, when weāre doing this album and this song, the lyrics werenāt originally, āPriest, are you there?ā but I kept being drawn to this āPriest, are you there?ā and kept envisioning this visual. I wasnāt going to have a guest singer on this album, but every time I kept thinking of āPriestā and kept thinking of Rob, it all matched up. I mentioned it to him, and he immediately responded with interest and seemed passionate about being a part of it.
