ABOUT…
I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

the Fact that King Diamond is 64 years old and still can sing like that say's something for the man .

Him and Rob Halford both. Great vocal range on both of them.

King Diamond records are a complete story. His concerts are shows telling the story...

[@dtfreak]

That is right. And when he changes from falsetto to low register, to chest voice and the way he uses inflections it is usually him portraying different characters of the story. Each style of voice means a different person on the story.

Yep, that's the great thing about King. It's like reading a book or watching a movie.

Rebecca a lot of us viewer/subscribers are the age of these 80s rockers you are reacting to. We love your delivery and validation of what we've known for decades about these musicians and singers. They are super human, talent wise. We did hair windmills to their material when it was new.

He's not that far off of range even now. At least in this song, he could hit the notes, just lack a tiny bit of sustain. Of all the people I figured would lose it getting older, King Diamond was on top of that list. But he's proven me wrong. Same as Halford, Dickenson, and Geoff Tate. They all still sound great.

Fatal Portrait!!!!!!

[@FaceTheQwazaar]

One of my absolute favourites. A few things to keep in mind here. He was 58 years old for this concert and has been doing this since the late 70s. In 2010 he had a triple-bypass, essentially from smoking too much to the point that his arteries got blocked up. And he still has that voice. Oh and finally, his microphone handle is made of human bones, a femur and a tibia. :)

[@kennydiaz272]

Exactly! He stopped smoking since the heart attack... His voice is stronger than ever. He turned 63 yesterday. Happy birthday to the King!!🤘🏻🤘🏻

And I think Kim Bendix is Kings Diamond's real name also has the last name of Peterson but that kind of puzzles me why she has his middle name as her second last name if his last name is Peterson why isn't her last name Peterson behind her first last name that doesn't make any sense

@@billcummins5801 It is actually fairly common in Denmark. Since Bendix is a uncommon surname, Kim Petersen has probably taken her surname as a middle name during their marriage. However she does not have to do the same.

My band had the extreme pleasure to be the supporting act for King Diamond, a few years ago. King and the rest of the band were so gracious and welcoming, to us, a local band. That when the club security guard ask us to leave the backstage area, King Diamond and Andy la Rocque, Kings lead guitarist and song calibrator, told them, that we were all welcomed to remain backstage to enjoy the show. The entire band plus their road crew were so cool to us, taking pictures, inviting us on the tour bus, giving us t-shirts, autographs, drink, food. The reason, so we were told, that King had invited us to stay backstage was because, the rest of the band had seen our entire show and were extremely impressed with our music, that they passed this on to King. He in turned, thank us for warming up the crowd and asked to be his quest backstage to enjoy the show and tour bus after the show.

[@JelloFluoride]

King Diamond is one of those bands you show to people to see what their reaction is. I remember my first time, I laughed at how he sang. But that's typical for someone who doesn't really understand what they're being shown. (I was like 16 and just getting into Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, not really ready for this.) Anyway, it didn't take me long to understand why this is amazing. Andy Larocque is a fucking god. Also Mercyful Fate is badass too. \m/

Kind Diamond is a legend, and for good reason. His vocals are one of a kind. You generally either like them or not. I've been a fan since I first heard him in Mercyful Fate way back in the early 80's. A few quick fun facts about the King: He is 62 years old. Yes...... 62 and still sounding incredible (his birthday is June 14. Happy early birthday King!) He had triple bypass surgery 8-9 years ago. He obviously recovered well is and going strong. The female backup singer on the side of the set is actually his wife.

[@billcummins5801]

Yes it was but you're forgetting conspiracy it's the follow-up to them and I love both albums you can write two awesome horror movies from each one of those albums including Abigail and fatal portrait House of God graveyard spiders lullaby you can probably even write a movie to the eye although that really is a horse to right but you can make something out of me to wear it would scare the shit out of somebody which would be awesome we need somebody like King to sit down with a director and a producer and go over his albums and I guarantee you can see quite a few movie is coming if they're just for somebody that had a brain and sit down and talk with King

[@transsylvanian9100]

The Eye is my favorite though of all the King Diamond albums.

[@Torgo1969]

@@transsylvanian9100 Yes. I've recently discovered how good The Eye is. Say what you will about the supernatural horror of King's other albums, The Eye is more horrifying because it is so obviously believable that these things actually happened and are likely still happening. It's full of all-too-believable torture and abuse, but violence that was justified for supernatural reasons.

So was Abigail.

[@Torgo1969]

@@sethcashman1011 Abigail is a treasure, and I particularly love it in its entirety on the Songs For The Dead concert CD/DVD.

The King !!!! Thanks Rebecca💕

[@RIfeynmanQED]

Dear Rebecca, I came to your channel randomly while looking for King Diamond content on youTube and I enjoyed your reaction video very much! I am a fan of King Diamond since 1993. A friend of mine made me listen to a tape of King ("The Eye"), when I was 13 years old and I have been a huge fan ever since! It was interesting for me to see what a professional, educated musician like you, who is not linked to metal thinks of King Diamond. I was happy to see that you liked and appreciated his singing performance and also the musicianship. I am saying this because this brings me back to my school days. In 9th grade our music teacher asked us to bring a tape with our favourite song to school. Obviously in the mid 90s Eurodance and boy bands were quite popular, so a lot of my class mates brought songs of such bands. I brought in a King Diamond song (it was Eye of the Witch) and you know what my teacher said? He said that this is just noise with a lot of screaming and he does not consider this to be music. He even asked if my parents know what I am listening to!!! It is one thing to say that you do not like such kind of music, but it is another thing to talk down the musicianship. Anyway, keep on going and best of luck for your channel! You are doing a great job! Regards from Germany!

Loved your reaction. King NEVER disappoints. I'm 55 and have listened to him for ever. Great to listen to to go to sleep. 👍

[@barrymccociner3154]

[@AndrewMartinez1776Redux]

It sounds like there's a new King Diamond fan coming into the coven.

[@bryanbrady877]

Nice reference. First MF song I heard.

[@billcummins5801]

I was in to King and Mercyful Fate and black rose way before King Diamond but when he looked Mercyful Fate In for canned item that's when he really took off he became a legend after the first four albums and that ain't no shit

[@richardpehrson3004]

Thank You for watching King Diamond, i loved this 🤗.

[@jasonc2890]

you had me at "i love his diction"

[@Buffalodan66]

Interesting Fact: king had a triple bypass a fews years ago and had to rebuild his lungs & vocal technique. He said after giving up smoking, he feels 30 years younger and sounds like it!

[@jeremymiller4231]

Thanks for listening to King Diamond and all the rest of the hard rock and metal you have listened too. You rock!

[@underdogg8240]

Nothing but fond memories of listening to entire vinyl albums of him and curling up on the couch

[@CoralMan24]

I appreciate you being open to all genres of music and really getting into it and possibly making it part of your selection you listen to

[@amzeraofficiel]

King Diamond is so brilliant as a singer and Sleepless Night is a really good choice to enter in his world. But King Diamond is also a band with perfect and amazing musicians/friends.

[@brianbramble5010]

It only takes one King song and it will keep playing over and over in your head till you have to listen to it again and then more , so basically you'll be hooked in 3months from now! Welcome to the King Diamond family!

[@nudetayneceleryman]

Heard this for the first time when I was like 14. I laughed the whole time, but in a good way. Still one of my favorite artists.

[@garyhines6767]

King diamond! Finally! He is amazing

[@AFx3144]

The older King gets, the better his voice gets. Awesome!!

[@billcummins5801]

His voice is getting better because he quit smoking and he is past amazing I would say he is it God amongst singers and a beautiful Melody you can hit Optics that nobody else can hit he's just fucking awesome

[@kmjdk7683]

I love that you checked out King Diamond! Been a fan of him since I was a kid. And he is danish like me :). Great video 👍.

[@20irishman]

I've seen him in concert for the first time ago a month ago at the Tower Theater in philly. An amazing show. At 63, still got it. All hail the King

[@smokeycat2011]

King sounded fantastic here and this is my favorite King Diamond song. Enjoyable analysis video here- well done!

[@JamesGreen-bf4jy]

what's great with King is his voice never really changed from his first band Mercyful Fate to his solo stuff.
