...students broke open the front door of the church at 2 a.m. Saturday and were found inside by the Cambridge Police. The three students, who had been drinking heavily, told police they had broken into the church because, "they wanted to play the organ," said the church's sexton, Francis L. Bannon.

...backlash of this psychosexual tug-of-war is a devestating assault on social mores. The underside of Jeffrey and Sandy's courtship is sadomasochistic sexual initiation, and the institute of marriage is lampooned by intentionally overbearing organ music. Though Lynch seems deadset on satirizing the family, Blue Velvet exudes a romanticism for it akin to that of National Velvet. Perhaps he's saying you can regurgitate your cake and eat it too.
