  • Covered Up: "This Ain't the Summer of Love" is a heavily rewritten cover of a song originally performed by the Imperial Dogs.
  • Epic Riff: "(Don't Fear) The Reaper", full stop.
  • Everyone Is Satan in Hell: Due to the mention of Romeo and Juliet, listeners often assume "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" to be about a suicide pact.
  • Genius Bonus: The Tarot card spread displayed by the croupier on the cover art spells out the message of "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" – that Death himself cannot separate the love of a man and a woman. This sequence of cards – Death, the Hierophant, the High Priestess and the Sun – also has a definite meaning in esoteric magic. Think tantra – sex magic.
    • A higher-level genius bonus: for those who know their Tarot decks, the actual cards represented here are from the Thoth deck, created by Aleister Crowley.
