Sorry about my ignorance but I never heard a song called "Ripsters Of Mercy" by The Sisters. Could somebody drop some words about it? Is it a different version of some well-known song or...?

It's unlistenable mix of F&L&A appeared on single 'Nurb'. Nurb track is more funny (Burn backwords) couse you can hear this line of text:
"After We Complete the Ring of Fire
We will Burn this Circus Down
The Wheel Goes Round and the Flames Get Higher
Round the Juggling Men and the Idiot Clown"
singing not backwords. egrhhh

I reversed the song myself once and it sounded more like-
The catherine wheel a ring of fire
we'll burn this circus down
the wheel goes round and the flames get higher
the juggling man and the evil clown

Hi. There's a bootleg with an alternative version of Burn with that piece of lyrics in it, not sung backwards or anything. I think it's on Hard Reign. I can't remember if the song is entitled Burn, or something else, because it's an entirely different tune alltogether. Maybe someone else knows?
And I too heard the mentioning of the Catherine Wheel in it.

Yeh, the "After We Complete the Ring of Fire" line is from a website by someone for whom English isn't their first language, so they can be forgiven the error.
I know the version of Burn you're thinking of. It's an early version of Burn and it's called "Candle". Apparently some people seem to think an instrumental of "The Driver" is called Candle but this is incorrect (possibly the fault of a bootleg?). My information comes from someone who spoke to the man himself.
Also if memory serves me well, on the Hard Reign album the first 2 lines of "The Driver" were later to become the first 2 lines of Heartland.
