i swear i heard/read, it in an interview somewhere,
It was going to be in the doomy part of the song "venus doom". it was about scheduling conflicts that he didn't do it.
I'm trying to look for a link, even if it wasn't true. it sounds believable enough to me.
============================================================
edit:
its under
an interview entitled.
Venus Doom interpreted by Ville Valo, the song was "Love in cold Blood" not "venus doom"
Love In Cold Blood
This song has a very heavy punkyish guitar riff that indirectly resembles Thin Lizzy. The chorus with its wolf-like howling ?Love in co-o-o-old blood? glues like resin.
To me the riff sounds like Cathedral. Originally we meant to have Lee (Dorrian, the singer of Cathedral) sing on this one, but it never materialised. The song is quite a mess: some parts remind you of Metallica, some of Sabbath. And in the end there`s some Kyuss and Alice In Chains."
