Ghost (Papa Emeritus IV) & The Hellacopters - Sympathy for The Devil "Live 2021" (På spåret)

[@stationary_Boundary]

when i hear mick sing this it's like the devil is dropping hints at who he his. when papa sings it it's like a list of accomplishments.

[@ElegyMH]

Best comment ever!

[@chaosapiant]

@@ElegyMH I came here to also write best comment ever but you beat me to it. Dang.

[@neuralmute]

True though! Mick's all coy about "guess my name", and Tobi's making it damn clear who he's supposed to be! The way he growls the "Call me Lucifer" bit is perfect.

[@derekcaesar2107]

Papa IV makes it clear that he is channeling the devil in this song.

[@seanammon6993]

[@ghost_reveries6314]

The fact he has never taken voice lessens... unreal. Sheer talent. He sounds better live. And beyond humble.

[@Ilaryxghost]

are you serious? does he never taken voice lessons?!

The power he uses in this cover to get that grit literally brings tears to my eyes; what a world class Rockstar, man, Toby can do it all

[@Starz_love.-.0]

The “Or I’ll lay your fucking soul to wasteeee” always gets me, Tobias is such a great vocalist

[@morganrae5638]

I love that even though he isn't performing with his own band, he steps back at the end and appreciates the musicians and their talent just like he does with the ghouls. Tobias is not only talented but just an overall amazing guy and I can't wait for the next album :)))

Copia was my favourite. And since the album is out, I love it. It's probably my favourite cover art ever, those details. Too beautiful.

If you didn't love Candy C, you don't deserve Frater Imperator

[@PikovajaDama]

Papa IV sounds so dirty towards the end, so awesome. If he will be using that on the new album (the wait is killing me, gah), that will be the greatest thing ever.

[@HLY66]

I was waiting for the part where he would eventually belt it out. When he did, I nearly fell out my chair! 🤣

[@janiii9997]

The talent is unreal. Unholy moly his voice gets me every time

[@Northdracula]

“I’ll lay your fucking soul to waste” Classic Papa. 🤘🏻💀

[@BrennanBarrier]

Seems like Tobias has really been exercising his voice during these last few months. Don’t believe I’ve ever heard his lower range sound so good. The high notes have a ton of power now too 🤘🏻

[@owenvandenberg9652]

he used to sing in the death metal band Repugnant, you should check them out sometime :)

[@Brittanialeigh]

If you listen to his work with Repugnant you can hear the deeper range. Many fans refer to this as his Mary Gore voice because he referred to himself by that name during that time of I remember correctly.

[@MiguelTortellini]

Finally, after like 10 months we see papa again

[@mavrompeeee]

He is not the same papa

If you have Ghosts is the ultimate Ghost cover.

[@wulf2863]

Nope, if you have ghosts and it's a sin are the best

[@SatansFire]

@@wulf2863 No Avalanche is the best cover, if you disagree youre wrong because my word is law and personal opinions dont exist. And also because Avalanche is such a good cover is makes Ghost look incredible and amazing.

[@PapaEmeritus_4evr]

@@wulf2863 If You Have Ghosts is so great because they took that song and completely put the Ghost treatment on it. Love it!

[@LordCantalo]

The power he puts out without much body movement gives me Count Dooku vibes. All poise, yet so much power masterfully controlled. Even the hand behind the back.

[@lanimorris2462]

A Man of Wealth and Taste, indeed❤️‍🔥

[@zanethethiccboi1020]

The sheer menace they added to this song is incredible. Papa IV fully intends the listener to know exactly who they’re dealing with and it shows.

People can hate Ghost all they want but the man behind the paint & mask is a talented singer, musician. Tobias is dialed into every genre of rock/metal/pop. 🤘✌

I really hope Papa IV is gonna end up being a darker version of his young self, cause this is honestly turning out to be my fave character of Tobias so far.

[@alexgudie2229]

That could play out amazingly. The Cardinal had an almost childlike innocence and the inner struggle to try and keep Papa IV from taking that away as an underlying theme for the next album would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@essex3777]

I like the idea of this Papa being quiet and sister, like Dooku and Pinhead. Poise and power under a master's control giving him a quiet foreboding.

[@PapaEmeritus_4evr]

And he turned out to be the exact opposite.

[@insanitysplayground547]

The simple fact that he does covers better than the original band is amazing that's why I love Tobias's band GHOST. No insult to the rolling stones at all.

[@youngkingdom8131]

You mean, singing 90% of a stones song in a monotone that any asshole could match? And then the other 10% is some low level plebeian singing ability? What a disgrace to act as if the Stones never happened based on this pathetic cover attempt.

[@josehborba3004]

This is a a stones origin song written by mick and Keith stones version is the ultimate version, especily the live version get your Ya yas out.

[@PowerslideSWE]

This is from a Swedish game show, the point of all the songs featured is that they are supposed to be harder to guess for the contestants and therefore not played as the originals, and there are 2 clues in each song, hence the little number at the very end of this. I love this version of the song, it's awesome.

[@schleifpunkt.tv2092]

I cant Stop Listening to this. Iam so Happy to See He is alright and to See Papa again and hear His gorgeous voice.

[@Theroha]

@3:17 when the guitar flipped to Carol of the Bells, I got chills. With the energy of the rest of the song, it rang as a stunning allusion to the bridge in Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar. The layers that these artists put into their craft is amazing.

Pretty cool. I wonder what it would be like with the Ghoulettes in the background singing an eerie "woo-woo, woo-woo." Probably pretty dope.

[@mikaels819]

Hellacopters deliver as usual, a beautiful version. The expression in the song gives the lyrics depth, it touch ... First time I heard this song so I checked the original and other covers, this is by far the best version of them all.

[@dontfearthe]

Did anybody else notice the Carol of the Bells reference at 3:17? It contains the Dies Irae which is one of the most referenced melodies in music and symbolises death, despair and coming doom! The carol of the bells original song was sung around new years.

[@Wedelinskyj]

Some context: This performance is from Sweden's most popular game show where contestants "travel" around the world and answer questions about the cities and countries they go to. Some questions are music related, and famous bands take turns being on stage. For this episode, Hellacopters was the band and Tobias was invited to guest sing one of the songs they played. For every musical performance, there are two questions for the contestants. So one is always related to the main song, and the other to a short musical piece they add to the song somewhere.

[@dr.coomer9750]
