White Anglo Saxon Protestant. It's meant to be a dig at the (in the 80's) American ruling class. Y'know, the sort of establishment types who wanted to ban bands like this, together with Ozzy, Judas Priest, etc...
@kelpbeds Well..if you are a W.A.S.P fan you would know that the abbreviations have no specific meaning, and supposedly the story goes that Chris and Blackie were sitting outside the studio when a wasp landed near them and that was the idea for the band name from Chris's side, Blackie later added the dots....FYI
@Selesify I am a W.A.S.P. fan and I have never heard or read any official reason how the name was created.I am just going off the vinyl record I own that has the words "we are sexual perverts" etched into the record near the spindle hole/label.
Not sure how many of these were printed but I was shocked to see It there next to all the serial numbers.thanks for the Info...
Blackie still brings me to tears...I was given this cd back then as a parting. He was in a band, we were together. The song was the question. We're still friends, but... Thank you for this vid very much.
And I keep holding on Holding on till you come back to me And I keep holding on Holding on till you run to me All I can hold is a shadow of a heart that's gone And left me shattered I'm lost and Can I hold you one more time I guess me holding you Was holding you down I guess me holding you Was holding you down I guess me holding you Was holding you down
Simply Amazing!
