[@Greatmeasures]

The Ted Nugent song was Stranglehold, not Cat Scratch Fever. 🤦‍♂️ **If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse and they’re ready to get help, contact us via email.** [e-mail]

[@lacosbo]

Its because the riff is in the same note tonic, (A minor)

[@cbn6635]

One of the best, most groundbreaking and downright sinister debut albums in metal history, 'Melissa' has legendary status here in my homeland of Denmark. 🤘🤘🤘

[@claudioferraro1652]

Deserved 🤟

[@uoabigaillevey]

It has legendary status here in the USA with me anyways. My username is based on a combination of 'Ultima Online' (which is the game I was playing back in the late 90's when I made this username for a message board) and the album 'Abigail'

[@romaneichholz7273]

This my friend

[@romaneichholz7273]

Also so unbelievably good produced for that time

[@cbn6635]

@@romaneichholz7273 The production certainly suits the sinister music perfectly.. 🤘🤘

Love seeing Judson cracking up. Great song, great choice for the channel.

[@ronaldschenderlein2135]

Oh wow, this is going to be fun. Judson hearing the King will be priceless!

With Mercyful fate there is no mistake! Absolutelly master piece!

[@lawrencefine5020]

SWEET. Huge Mercyful Fate fanboy. The musicianship of these guys is off the charts. I knew KDs voice would throw him off a bit, it does to everyone. KD is a true original and he sounds today as he did way back then. Loved this one. A Dangerous Meeting, Richard. Or maybe something from Abigail.

[@TheDretch]

Nice jihadist terrorist flag you got going there.

[@johnpelfrey2425]

So true musicianship is off the charts and so is the vocals such control

[@crimsontowerfullmoon8646]

OK, you love King Diamond, Mercyful Fate...and you know that King's voice is not a love at first sight but it grows on us over time...and you support Palestine ? Wow ! I salute you brother

[@lawrencefine5020]

@@crimsontowerfullmoon8646 Yeah I'm kinda against Genocides and Ethnic Cleansing. Don't like Ukrainian Nazis either. But that's just me. :)

@@lawrencefine5020 ZERO evidence of your fantasy BS "genocide" and it's no wonder you would also support a genocidal mass murderor like Putin.

[@thunderspike1892]

Michael Denner & Hank Shermann aka René Krolmark on guitars, Timi Hansen on bass and Kim Ruzz aka Kim Thyge Jensen on drums. Into The Coven was on the PMRC Filthy 15 list. Also including Prince, Madonna, Judas Priest and others

[@westonvirginia6458]

Mercyful Fate is hands down my favorite band of all time. My favorite track from Melissa is Black Funeral.

[@mattlukethompson]

ITS A BLAAAACKKK FUNNNNERALLLLLLL AHHHHHAAAAAAHHHHH

[@Iaminsaneone]

The whole Don’t Break The Oath album, is a masterpiece, and is very dark Metal, the dueling guitars are out of this world, it is a must to listen to the whole album, start to end.

[@robertcr]

👍Sending a lot of Great Measures from Costa Rica 🐸 Pura Vida guys Keep up with this proyect you guys Long live the KING🤟

[@Christian-vq8rd]

Costa Rica is gorgeous. I was there last summer.

[@robertcr]

@@Christian-vq8rd Yeah, it has its natural beauty 🌳👍 And if you like Death Metal there's a Costa Rican band called Humanizer that's worth to check 🤟

[@crilf5830]

Thanks for this. Great band and as silly as his voice might sound at times King Diamond is pure legend!

[@Elmonator]

Loved Judson's rendition of Don't Look Back In Anger, really beautiful.

[@vLarsn]

Awesome that you did Mercyful Fate. I really hope you check out more MF or King Diamond, would love to see "Amon Belongs to Them".

[@DaPoopIsInDaPudding]

The greatest of measures

[@lacosbo]

Cool reaction. The discussion segments has improves this channel. keep going that. Greetings from South America, Argentina, watching you from Buenos Aires

[@slavicgarou6414]

Metallica covered it on Garage Inc.

[@themadmattster9647]

Hammett really did a hackjob at every solo though

[@snackelwolf4462]

A neighbor recorded me Mercyful Fate when I was in Junior High. Blew my mind, expanded my musical diversity, and guaranteed my love of metal to this day. Thank you for the video, cheers.

[@jamescostello2558]

Wow I was just listening to this this morning what a coincidence

[@judythepunk461]

Just discovered this channel, and i love this! :3

[@judsong]

Much appreciated!

[@Jairon_Junior]

Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars (Live at Sonic Pump Studios) or even TIME song, don't know if Richard is familiar with it, but it's really worth it! Would even recommend "Wintersun - Loneliness" to aproach a more sad song with awesome vocal performance.

[@mikelois5297]

Awwwwww yeaaahhh... again thank you guys for acknowledging the people and taking this request from little ol me so cool... well here we go!!!

[@_Helm_]

I love seeing two friends listen to music together and chat

[@Olivia_Neumann]

What a surprise, shout out to Denmark!😂🇩🇰 The idea of a stage name is kinda funny to me, but i can see why you wouldn’t wanna keep the names Kim and René while going for that heavy metal image. Don’t Look Back in Anger has never sounded better, you sure know how to pick ‘em.

[@cbn6635]

King Diamond should be crowned the real king of Denmark instead of the one we got now.. 🤗

[@Olivia_Neumann]

@@cbn6635 now that would be a modern monarchy😂🤘🏼

[@stpftw1]

King Diamond is such an unique gem.

[@daystars-den]

Great song! Greetings from Frankenthal (Pfalz), Germany! have a great day lads ;-)

[@xnoiidb]

Okay, okay... good Mercyful Fate pick. Welcome Home will always be my favorite way to introduce people to King Diamond though

[@themadmattster9647]

MF worshipped early MSG (Michael Schenker Group) and the intro of Into The Coven reminds me of that

[@georgeconradie4854]

Great stuff! I would love it if you guys check out Paradise Lost. Draconian Times is a good starting point. No high vocals, torture lyrics or satanic stuff. Just good old doom and gloom! 😀

[@Loendt]

I support this request. Great band!

[@jeffmaltby6185]

Yes 🤘Yes 🤘Yes 🤘

[@AN-nt3uv]

So happy, this weird thing called internet made me found your channel. I guess, thanks ARPA, CERN and others for inventing this network. Great measures thanks for being great. I like the Merciful Fate cover Metallica made on Garage Inc. Edit: It is a great album and best regards to my Danish neighbors in the North, but Judson's reaction was hilarious.

[@lungoalfa1805]

One of the best things that can happen to me as a metalhead is to share music and opinion with someone who appreciates music.

[@ThePeterzion]

I had exactly the same reaction as Judson when i listen King Diamond for the first time, his voice put a smile on my face, not in mocking way but just like a suprise way

[@tomz4332]

Long live the KING!

[@bobbiebastin5423]

Saw them 4 times, great times! Never got possessed! Good old days!!

[@T.F.B.Enterprises]

So good.✌❤

[@fabiolignelli7372]

Great reaction! Mercyful Fate is sacred and immortal!!! This is a Heavy Metal band with satanic lyrics and not a Black Metal band...The albums "Melissa" (1983) and "Don't Break The Oath" (1984) are masterpieces!!! Greetings from Brazil!!!

[@dianaharris2389]

My mom put a bible in my bedroom with rosary beads!😂 This was a blast from the past!

[@vikusen1857]

I you are going to do another one, you do Mercyfull fate - Evil. It is their best one and i think the solo is top 10 all time metal solo.

[@metaldrummersonly4402]

Burning the cross is my favorite MF song ;)) Thanks for the beautiful piano at the beginning. Good stuff

[@alyssahudson1743]

Another great song and review it took me awhile to get into Mercyful Fate and King Diamond the guitar playing is what kept me listening Richard I think your thinking of the song Am I evil by the band Diamond Head

[@bumblefluff79]

Took me a few to figure out why I recognised it then bingo, Metallica had a bit in a Garage Days medley.

[@jorgemolne4973]

Grew up listening to king diamond and fate. Very few vocals can compare. For power and range lately I’ve been on a Daniel Heimen kick.

[@Chevymetal69z28]

Someone made a video of this song and it's absolute gold it's called Mercyful Fate-Into the coven interpretation. I suggest you check it out if you need a good laugh.

[@redbarnbko]

Can't believe you guys didn't do Melissa the title track. Talk about a musical journey.

[@ergoliat1163]

I love the reactions, maybe some of the 90's italian power metal ? labirynt, vision divine, rhapsody, they've a lot of classical music in there tunes, cheers from CHILE

[@Psychograce93]

I'll always pick up what you guys put down

[@stepitupandgo67]

the intro is a trip

[@stepitupandgo67]

Why does this draw me in so much?

[@jdmalh]

Do some King Diamond too!!! - Sleepless Nights, for example

[@Bucketbothead007]

Great song & album! I recommend The Oath, Nightmare or Come to the Sabbath off of Don't Break The Oath. For some piano how about Valentina Lisitsa's live performance of Chopin Etude Op 25 No.11, Canteloupe Island live 1990 by Herbie Hancock/Pat Metheny/Jack DeJohnette/Dave Holland, or Jingles (James P. Johnson, 1930)?

Ive not explored Mercyful Fate, so thank you for bringing it to the channel! Still waiting on Dream Theater to return to the channel! Judson should react to "Home", or "Octavarium" would be amazing too!

King Crimson has an awesome falsetto and pretty iconic make up as well

haha i dont get why i like this channel so much

[@filteredears1755]

You should definitely do King Diamond next, it's lest satanic but darker imho

[@JohnJan721]

This is the funniest video yet xD.

[@smftv]

When you get to Cradle of Filth; I'd like to recommend "Cruelty Brought Thee Orchids". The remastered version actually. 🤘 Just to wet your appetite. It's a cover to cover type album, concept album actually about Elizabeth Bathory. Start to finish, all great and that's the song that got me into them back in the late 90's.

[@SuperNovaForTheBlind15]

Boot leg gives me pleasure That has no Measure 📐 ! Beautiful Piano as well Jud , I seen King Diamond 💎 in the late 70s I believe in Berkeley Ca , the Omni , I was kinda shitting my pants watching him sing 🎤 into his crucifix of bones 🦴 , but I keept telling my self , I think I like this music ! I also seen Spastic Children at the Omni back in the day , I’ll let y’all research that one for yourselves, ok slight hint , James would walk right in on the street with his girlfriend & the rest of us (Fans)I guess you could call us into the show ! Those were the days ! The King still belting it out after all of these years ! I give this song a smooth up in ya ! That’s a thumbs up 👍!

[@mikelois5297]

I can only do so much king diamond but never enough mercyful fate

[@Christian-vq8rd]

I think Judson is thinking of Stranglehold by Ted Nugent and not Cat Scratch Fever.

[@nar2130]

Absolutely nobody seems to know who Mercyful Fate is! I'm in.

[@michaelgates4962]

Show him the Metallica cover/mix.

[@bryanmack5410]

This is my first vid of the day, and hopefully my favorite...

[@robertpetre9378]

Apparently, the old managers girlfriend came up with the name Merciful Fate , but I don’t quite know what it means. It could even mean to be at the mercy of your fate or just to have a fate which is merciful.

[@s.e.gutierrez]

Judson: 😳>☺️>😆>🤣

[@geirholte1222]

[@mateus_targino]

I think that he would like Angra

[@discocrisco]

Request: Ihsahn, Pilgrimage to Oblivion, orchestral version and studio version.

[@IROCZSPEED]

Merciful Fate is Metallica's longest studio recorded song!
