Heaven's a Lie was my first Lacuna Coil song. I fell in love and had to have the albums right then but as a huge Depeche Mode fan...I can tell you that their cover of Enjoy the Silence is the greatest DM cover I've ever heard and there are a lot of really great ones but Cristina's voice is just so beautiful!

We would all enjoy the opportunity to see/hear that conversation. I've enjoyed Lacuna Coil since the first time I heard Our Truth in 2006 🤘😁👍

[@SonicImmersion_]

Yesss! Please do an interview ("tea time") with Elizabeth! Lacuna Coil has been my favorite band ever since I first heard it on a Polish metal station in 2004. I'm stateside, in the U.S., but was searching for new (to me) & better metal than I was hearing on U.S. rock stations. So on that Polish metal station I first heard "Swamped". It blew me away! Within a few weeks of that, I bought each of Lacuna Coil's albums, EPs, and Singles released up to that point. I had to import some of the CDs back then. I've introduced your music to many family, friends, coworkers, etc. over the 19 years since! Nearly everyone has been blown away by how amazing your band's music sounds. The band members' skill at your live shows is very, very good too. It's relatively rare to see a band where their live performances are on par with, or even better than, the studio recordings. That shows serious skill and your band definitely has that! Definitely, keep on rockin, for the fans! 🤘

[@Cherokeelion]

😂 Cristina, thank you for creating such beautiful music with Lacuna Coil!

[@jessehiott672]

Please make this happen!

[@keithbrown4904]

Hey Cristina. A couple of fun facts… I will turn 70 this year, so I am guessing I am at the upper fringe of your fan base. Also, weirdly, I discovered LC many years ago as a chance byproduct of Google search for information about a “lacune” found in an MRI of my brain. A happy accident, for sure! I have always enjoyed LC’s music, but Elizabeth’s analysis takes it to a much deeper level. Well done.

[@ShearWater509]

"Our Truth" was the first song I ever heard by Lacuna Coil and got me into them. It's also the reason I bought my first 7-string guitar! I had to learn how to play it!

I definitely agree 💯. Heaven's a lie and Our Truth are masterpieces.

[@leonsmith3625]

I completely agree, the first time I heard Our Truth I bought tickets to their tour and a copy of the album within a week. After nine of their gigs I have never been disappointed

[@rosalynbelmont9364]

I have to say "Senzafine" is probably one of my favorites. It is in Italian and it's beautiful. The words are intricately woven with the melody and Cristina's And Andrea's voices. I remember they played it acoustically at one of the concerts I attended. That acoustic set was everything. It made things more intimate, as if they bared part of their soul with the audience. I have been a fan since "Comalies." I have seen them live a few times, and they do not disappoint. They are very down to earth. If you have not listened to "Comalies XX" please do! It's a beautiful surprise and treat to hear some of the favorites reimagined. It is a very refreshing reminder why we have come to love this band as much as we have. ♡

Oh! I wake up and Lacuna Coil is on The Charismatic Voice! Its a good day! One thing I must say… Elizabeth, as a man who has lost the majority of his hearing the way you take such delight in, and have the ability to break a song down brings the color back in my memory so fully. I have worn out soooo many cassette tapes of bands like Lacuna Coil. My memory appreciates you, you add the brightness and joy back just watching you express the fun you are having! Thank you for being YOU.

[@icorezx14r]

When I discovered Lacuna Coil I was captured by the contrast of the male vs. female vocals. Sometimes it feels Angelic vs. Demonic. Other times it's a beautiful Day meets Night as Sunsets and Sunrises. I'm hooked, I really enjoy everything about this band. Oh and the instrumentals are top shelf. More LC please!

[@domenicotolomei3006]

I'm italian and Lacuna Coil was one of the first band I saw in concert when I was just fifteen! Cristina's voice it's amazing! Nice to see you like them so much 🤘😁

[@jamesh2321]

I first found this band through their cover of Depeche Mode's 'Enjoy the silence'. Little did I know then what a rabbit hole I would end up going down, but I loved every minute of it. Cristina's voice is enchanting, enthralling even. The depth of the music behind her only amplifies the effect.

[@SonicImmersion_]

The b-side on that single is also AMAZING. "Virtual Environment" is a very beautiful, extremely unique song.

[@TheComicBookJoker]

@@Warpwaffel This comment was how I learned it was a cover. 😂

[@GlendonPerkinsgp]

When you mentioned an 80s era, I immediately thought of Madonna. The way Cristina sings “know” strikes me so similar in the way Madonna would also sing “know” in some of her songs.

[@rogerballoujr.6244]

Lacuna Coil was my gateway to discovering other amazing female fronted bands like WIthin' Temptation, Nightwish, Epica, and Sirenia. Christina Scabbia is and has from the start always been amazingly talented. Comalies is an amazing album and has several amazing pieces of music on it, look forward to some more of the band being featured. Edit: When you mentioned "cast a spell" at the end it reminded me of their song Spellbound. Alot of great songs from this band, Our Truth, Spellbound, Closer, the Acoustic versions of Heaven's a Lie and Senzafine from a live recording at WAAF (a now defunct radio station out of Boston, MA), I Like It, The Ghost Woman and The Hunter, Stars, When a Dead Man Walks, and awesome covers like Losing my Religion and Enjoy the Silence.

Love Lacuna Coil. Consistently brilliant every time I see them live. I was very lucky to see them in the early 00's in UK when they did an acoustic set in the middle of their set. Amazing.

There's a rare gem by LC that's a b-side from the album previous to this called "Lost Lullaby" that has both incredible lyrics and is probably still my favorite vocal performance by her. I wholly recommend that one. Actually funny story about "Heavens a Lie" for me. I actually sent them an email probably back in early 2003 because there are mutliple versions of the video for this song and I wanted to know the story behind it and so I asked why they shot two different videos and Cristina replied to it saying "Sure no problem. There's actually 3 different versions." Not sure why I laughed so hard when I read that, I guess it was the matter of factness in it. Anyways, while this is the best shot of the videos, the first one they did which was super low budget, and kind of romantic horror themed (if that's even a thing, I just don't know how else to describe it) is my favorite, because its just plain fun.

I wouldn't say it's that rare as it's been a permanent inclusion on Unleashed Memories for many, many years now

I am so glad you started listening and analyzing them. I have been in love with Cristina and the entire band since 2006. They always send chills through my body.

There are so many great songs to choose from! One Cold Day, Falling Again, To The Edge, Apocalypse, Intoxicated, Veneficium, etc... Once you get a taste, you just can't stop!

I agree with your recommendations! I would also add, "Halflife", "Hyperfast", "Stars", "Un Fantasma Tra Noi" (such a beautiful instrumental), "Virtual Environment" (almost Celtic-like metal in that one) "To Live Is To Hide", (Cristina's powerhouse soaring vocals), "Daylight Dancer" (original 2002 version), "In A Reverie", and the list "goes on and on and on"!

I don't understand why these channels can't first listen once all the way through, then go back and replay and stop 500 times. The great thing about this band is they sound amazing just the right amount of heavy and melodic with killer vocals. I love how some songs christina sings verses and then others andrea does and flip around chorus as well. Pretty cool. Their sound never gets old.

Lacuna coil - Dark adrenaline is my favourite album. It's so awesome.

Great review! This was the song that got me into Lacuna Coil way back when. I want to recommend you check out Gojira - "L'Enfant Sauvage." One of the most unique and powerful vocalists in metal. Joe's gifted at doing harsh vocals with something like actual pitch and tone.

You know what I like about your channel? You point out things I've missed in songs I've listened to for years.

Suggestion: Red Handed Denial - “Father Said” (Lauren Babic live one take performance) Much more recent version of Lauren who can sing beautifully and scream with the best of them. The lyrics are very personal to her too and is worth listening for both her voice and the story.

I would LOVE to hear Elizabeth react to Lauren's metal scream.

[@brianware8934]

@@aoifeobailey5757 I knooooow! And going in and out of her screams. Chef’s kiss. Maybe you can add a suggestion comment and one day we’ll get enough. I’ve been trying for months!

[@Robert_Douglass]

Same here! And here's the thing, Lauren Babic doesn't have the international fame and exposure that signed bands like Lacuna Coil and Evanescence get, so do check her out!

Growing up with Lacuna Coil, this video makes me so unbelievably happy. I love these guys
