Citation : et "smoke on the water" n'a rien à voir avec le fait de fumer dans les toilettes. le morceau parle d'un concert qu'ils ont fait sous une pluie pas croyable, qui a couté la vie à la sono, et à la plupart des amplis. (et l'explosion de la sono aurait crée un enorme nuage de fumée...d'où le titre)

Citation : On the eve of the recording session a concert featuring Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention was held in the casino's theatre; during the concert a fire broke out (caused by someone in the audience shooting a flare gun at the ceiling [1], as mentioned in the "some stupid with a flare gun" line) that eventually destroyed the entire casino complex, along with all the Mothers' equipment. The "smoke on the water" that became the title of the song (credited to bass player Roger Glover, who related how the title occurred to him when he suddenly woke from a dream a few days later) referred to the smoke from the fire spreading over Lake Geneva from the burning casino as the members of Deep Purple watched the fire from their hotel across the lake. The "Funky Claude" running in and out is referring to Claude Nobs, the director of the Montreux Jazz Festival who helped some of the audience to escape the fire.
