As someone who has been lucky enough to see this band, they play these songs live and sound exactly like on the record. Maybe even better. A very powerful band to see live.

The thing about Ghost is that it's actually ABBA-esque pop disguised as heavy metal. And I mean it 100% in a good way. That's why it appeals to a very large audience. Their production is so clever-well-built harmonies, instrumental and vocal breaks, embellishments here and there (e.g. the piano in the second verse of Square Hammer). Probably the real secret to their success is that they're Swedish...

[@ShasOFish]

One of the jokes for years has been calling them "Scooby-Doo Metal." It's accurate, not wrong, and not a complaint. Plus the concerts themselves are an absolute blast.

[@sebrinalilje8057]

Yes to all of this. Metal you can dance to, lol. And the live show is fantastic, we took our 8 year old for his first concert and had a blast.

[@paulasophie9862]

Last sentence is so true, swedish bands do it the best

[@babephom3t]

[@janoskatona1234]

The real secret is that Tobias is really into music and popular music. And not only that he wants to make popular music, he understands how it works, and he wirtes good stuff.

[@Bad_Wolf_Media]

In the lore of the band, this song was "originally" released in 1969 by the "first" singer, who is now called Papa Nihil. It was "re-released" in 2019 to celebrate the 50th Anniversary. The music of Ghost was a bit heavier, grungier, when they started, but as they've evolved and "changed singers" almost every album/tour cycle, they've gotten a little lighter, but still party-rock songs. The mystery of the Nameless Ghouls is a thin veil that's easily pierced, but that's collectively accepted by fans. That's just part of the fun of being a fan. Of course it's not real, but it's a collective, consciously-accepted illusion. For the real behind the scenes, they're a Swedish band, and the creator, Tobias Forge, has very little accent left. But on-stage, it takes on a flavor very much like the Count from Sesame Street (in my opinion). It's just so damn much fun. The Ghouls are out there having fun on stage, the crowd eats it up. I can't say enough good things about the band, the music, or the live shows.

[@saoliath5000]

as far as their general sound, id also say ghost likes to intentionally emulate different forms of music. Seven inches of satanic panic for instance is very clearly emulating music of the 60s/70s. With Impera, it seems it is tackling 80s style stadium rock as a primary influence. As for earlier songs being heavier, thats not untrue, but even in opus eponymous, songs like Elizabeth i wouldnt say are heavy really. For the most part its been kind of a mix through the different albums. People i think expect a black metal sound, though ghost is more so black metal in theme primarily rather than musically.

[@hyperthermogenic]

@@saoliath5000 I absolutely love that about Ghost's music. You can so clearly hear the music that influenced Ghost's sound but they still manage to make original tracks. Tobias really has a talent for that. IMO of course.

[@adamsjoberrg]

@@saoliath5000 For sure, Spillways is a more 80's than anything done in the 80's, lol.

If they have trouble finding choral singers again they could maybe look for ones disillusioned by the system.

Food for thought. Cheers.

I just recently listened to a Swedish musician speak on this topic and he said that the Swedish government used to provide some financial support for young musicians that made it much easier for them to pursue music as a career.

People have already covered most of what I have to say about Ghost but I'd like to say that as concert crowds go Ghost fans are some of the nicest people I've had the pleasure of being in a crowd with. I am disabled and everyone was so nice and helpful. I am still impressed by that. I'm looking forward to seeing more Ghost reactions form you. It really helps to take my mind off of the constant pain I'm in for a little while. I'm not trying for sympathy here it is what it is that's life. I just want you to know you made my day a little better. Thank you for the entertainment.

Awesome to hear that the audience was nice and i'm happy for your experience :).

The audience was great when we went, too. A pair of ladies in their 60's sat behind us and chatted with our 8 year old between bands and took our picture for us.

[@babephom3t]

That’s great to hear! I had a similar experience. I have ASD and can get overstimulated when crowds are heavy but all the people around me seemed to notice without me even telling them and gave me the space to enjoy it! I also met a dad taking his daughter to her first concert there. She had little doc Martin’s on. It was a really great time

[@MarkoMakela-mv8dt]

Even though you mentioned you don't need sympathy from otehers I can somewhat relate to your situation as was at age of 19 in severe car accindent where I broke my wrist, several rib bones and my right leg, especially right knee was completely smashed by instrumen panel of my car. I had medical polaster to that whole leg and I could only move my toes, nothing else... So if a three months perioud semeed to me like a nightmare, I can Imagine your situation. But as point out, many people are still nice and helpful to others no matter what! Nice evening for you!

[@heathermccoy6353]

Interesting note: Tobias Forge, the brains behind this band, says that, originaly, he did NOT want to be the band's vocalist. But after no one expressed enough interest, he decided to do the job himself. Did his original idea involved a "bigger" voice? Maybe by carefully developing and controling his relatively limited instrument, the band gained a sound, identity, and success, that it never would have otherwise? You just can't plan outcomes like that!

Tobias did say that when the song sounds happy, he likes to make the lyrics really dark. So I sometimes find myself in the middle of the grocery, singing happily about my friend death. I love Ghost! 😁

[@arsveritasmedia9037]

I think one of the ingredients to the Grateful Dead's success, to veer to a different sort of band that is maybe like Ghost in a way, is that so many of their bouncy, happy-ish, and even hooky songs were actually very grim and dark stories. I think you need that contrast to avoid a certain ridiculousness in music.

[@Lurch685]

The Ghoulettes are amazing!! I love their voices. They mesh with Papa’s so beautifully.

[@morningstarghuleh1087]

My 14 year old stepdaughter was listening to this song really loudly during her shower, when she came out I asked why she was listening to it. She said it's because it's a cool song and she wants to hear more of their stuff but her mum didn't tell her who it was and had just downloaded it for her. I told her it's Ghost, one of my favorite bands ever and she freaked out going ''EWWWWW no! No, don't like it anymore!'' Hahaha, I've been trying to get her to listen to Ghost for a while but she thinks they are old peoples music because I listen to it. She still likes the song 😄

[@luvslogistics1725]

He has such a fantastic rhythm this song is hauntingly beautiful and absorbing. It goes from high-pitched contra tenor to lower bass almost baritone where it slows down..beautiful

[@des5592]

Coming from a classically trained musician, you can most certainly tell Tobias has taken vocal lessons over the course of the last couple years. I first really noticed in the live sympathy for the devil video. He has a beautiful bright tenor range but you can tell he has worked on supporting his lower range. The vowel pronunciation and the placed vibrato really add to it as well. Even though he has a nose injury, he’s really made noticeable improvements in his singing.

[@magnusblomqvist966]

Sorry to disappoint you. He spoke about this in a interview with Bandit Rock Radio here in Sweden and he only have taken two. One of them was when he lost his voice and the other one was more a lesson on how your personal life can effect your voice.

Although they use a lot of keyboards, this song was written under the ghost storyline as being written in the 60s.

the frontman is a swedish dude pretending to be an italian dude, which i think explains the oddness of his speaking voice vs. his singing. if you hear him talk out of character, though, he sounds 100% american -due to having lived in california for years- correction: still no idea why he sounds so american (you can still catch his swedish accent in some of his vowels and how he structures sentences occasionally, though). i think you'll really like ghost! their style is quite eclectic, but it's always meticulously planned. and the lore is also really fun if you like that kind of stuff like i do.

Really interesting hearing you bring up the elongating of the vowel sounds, it might have something to do with how he's singing with a full prosthetic mask on! He's definately working harder for clarity when singing live. Ghost did a few live performances on Radio 1 sessions, and Tobias wasn't wearing his mask for it, so it's one of the only times he's not fighting through the mask for that clarity and it sounds amazing!

I am shamed to admit that I have watched your videous well over a year now, but I keep coming back for two reasons: First, you explain to other mortals what is happenig when someone sings and what makes it great, but also give us a genuine reaction. Thank you Beth! And you are very lovely. My main point here is though letting these mortal feelings flow away from this: There is in music and it's presentation, both by instruments, but more often by the vocalist in best scenario, a deep connection between listener and performer and those feels. Despite of the fact that many people like me concider classical pieces high, something always about human voice as an istrument makes it more real... If it makes any sense and then there are the lyrics too, but the way it is delivered makes the biggest difference. Most moving pieces are those who touch your inner feelings. That is without giving any reply before ofc;)

I could imagine a Ghost being a bit like a Rocky Horror showing with full audience participation. Been into them since I heard "Square Hammer". I also love their acoustic cover of Rocky Ericson's "If you have Ghosts". The last two albums have been more in the style of earlier rock, Prequelle very 80's, Imperia more late 70's.

I was at this concert! It was my third time seeing Ghost, second as a headlining act. Their concerts are always fun. They really know how to put on a great live show. Seeing them live is what actually turned me into a fan.

I find it very impressive how Tobias is able to change his voice for each character. You should check that out and do a reaction video.

You would totally love Ghost. They're awesome live and lot of fun.

This reaction put a smile to my face. So happy you enjoyed Ghost 🖤

Tobias Forge didn't actually have himself in mind as the singer for this project/band. He initially wanted Messiah Marcolin from Candlemass (famous Doom metal band) to sing.

i'm so glad you reacted to ghost! it's such a fun band to listen to!

[@matteogiberti3297]

You wanna make me Cry Beth! Ghost are an amazing and (a while ago) also mysterious band... often associated to the metal world despite they don't play heavy metal... I've seen them live years ago in a small club in italy. I was less than two meters from Tobias, (the singer) feet. Thank You so much for this video!

It's a sweet song about friendship and coming up with your friends and maybe losing them along the way. Oh, and marijuana.

His voice is amazing
