If you've been following me for some time you've probably heard that HIM and the song Wicked Game, in particular, played a crucial role in me becoming a musician. It was 1997 or 1998, and like all children, I was watching cartoons on TV. However, before the cartoons, they were airing some music clips, which annoyed me very much back then (after all, who needs all these weird people when they could show a couple more cartoons!). Once among these clips, I saw a very unusual one. Some long-haired dudes with guitars, a lady with black wings, and most importantly, music that I've never heard before. Despite the fact that it took up airtime, which could be spent on Sailor Moon, the melody stayed in my head and haunted me for a long time. I really wanted to know what that song was and how to play it. And now I finally know! 😁 Well, obviously, I found out that it was HIM a couple of years after that, and I also heard the original by Chris Isaak around the same time. Of course, that version is beautiful, but I think that the heavier sound with the Gothic flare that HIM gave this song fits the lyrics much better. Hope you'll enjoy my renditions as well!

I just want to tell you that you have an absolutely AMAZING voice. One of the most beautiful voices I’ve ever heard honestly. I sincerely mean that. I’m surprised this doesn’t have more likes. It’s absolutely amazing. And your videos are just as amazing. Your covers are even better than the originals!

There it is, there it is!!!! I can hear your passion, you had me in that breath of life in "And I... " The music is all about emotions, if you feel it, you have it. Beautiful! And remember: The sound it always get first. You can have a very powerful song without no video and, while the sound works, you are okay. But can´t be the opposite. Said that, I like the efects in blue, even better than red. (: Continue with your incredible talent!
@AlexandriteVoice3 жыл бұрын
Well, thanks, I guess :) And, again, I always have emotions, it's just not necessary that you feel them the same way ;) also, different people perceive the world differently, there are people who respond better to sound, and others - to visuals (and all other senses). So nothing's ever as black and white as you state... Anyway, thanks again!
@victoriadevalo3 жыл бұрын
@@AlexandriteVoice Indeed there is no black and white, but I do not intend to offend you or mark your style. Its just it seems you were holding that emotions in "Faster" and here I can notice again all you can express. I am talking about the things you already done, I still have the memories of the chills in "Love Decay" and "When and Love and Death Embrace" because you let it go (as an example). Maybe you don´t notice like that and maybe I am wrong, but do you notice while you are singing there is a moment when you can just fluid within notes? It became natural, and there are voices like you that can be more powerful when "you let it go". It´s just an opinion, anyway, if you think it is wrong, just dropped it. What really love it´s your music and I find amazing the way you are growing up, every video has something better than before, something extra, I liked more. My friends already follow you, so, it is so exciting!!!!
@AlexandriteVoice3 жыл бұрын
I understand what you mean, but you're not hearing what I'm saying. I do everything the way I(!) believe fits the particular song (that's the whole point of being an artist, and making covers, in particular). The way you(!!) perceive it might be totally different, especially when it comes to emotions. There are also a lot of technical nuances in singing, that (from what I can guess from your comments) you are probably not very familiar with. So while I really appreciate your interest in my music, I would highly suggest that you won't make comments implying that I should somehow change my style or presentation in the future. You feel the way you feel, and I can't do anything about it anyway when the piece is finished and released. So comments that say "Oh, I wish you did this and that differently" are basically pointless and upsetting for everybody involved. Thank you for understanding!
@AlexandriteVoice3 жыл бұрын
Just remembered an example of what I'm talking about. On some of my other videos (that have more views especially) there are comments that say "That was too emotive" and "It wasn't emotional enough" about the very same song. So there's no way I can please everybody.
