i knew you would love it!! Thanks for this love! #RORH Thanks Gman for the heads up!! woot woot I am obsessed with how Melody's cry goes into Sam's screaming guitar on the rocks. smh crazy love the affect Papa Liliac is a former musician and now he's their producer. They are independent, he won't sell their soul to a label. And yes, they been around the music industry all their lives and they all chose their path without any pressure. They love what they're doing and yes they have been blessed with talent that is insane.
Cristy , having a connection to the music industry as you have you must have seen some diabolical rip-offs perpetrated on bands the longer they can stay away from the establishment the better in my view what do you think? RORH
I never had a connection to the music industry like that. I just was around it and knew people around it and things that would happen. I got a tiny taste of their corruption and so did friends of mine, including one rocker friend of mine. Who is now an independent becuz of it. I wholeheartedly am completely against record labels now. Ironically I just got an interesting feed on my FB yesterday about rock stars talking about the industry. Weird how things like this happen to me. But I'll try to post the link. But every time I try to post a link, YT deletes my whole post. grrrrr ruclips.net/video/cI1ZbBwEA-c/видео.html
They are a talented family , not only are they great musicians and songwriters they are all martial arts enthusiasts they all can ski Sam edits Abigail models and is a graphic designer as well as being able to play the accordion, Melody writes most of the lyrics as well as being a painter and bassist , Ethan is a gamer as well as being able to hold his own as a lead guitarist and rhythm guitarist and young Justin is a magician and is learning to play guitar if they make you feel that you've missed out they make me feel that I've wasted a lifetime . Papa Liliac was an entertainer and there are several videos of him singing out there he also produces and manages Liliac aswell as him being a videographer and Mama Liliac handles their merchandise distribution WHAT A FAMILY . Fang4life RORH
@@jonathanwatson5818 on some of their older covers of bands like Maiden that had dual leads, hed also get a solo :) the only one they did a video of is the Trooper, but they also played Fear of the Dark on the Santa Monica Pier and Powerslave as well.
@@warhammer5690 Yeah I watched The Trooper video many times, but I keep forgetting that Rhythm and Lead guitar can be the same guitar, it's just how you use them. Someone told me that I think though I forget who. I'm not a music expert obviously.
It is my belief that this song was created as a special farewell to all they left behind in California as they moved to Georgia. To all the close friends. To each & every one of them a special goodbye. They were asked to not go "Busking" on the San Amonica pier anymore as their crowds were getting too large. So they were making friends.
Father had his recording studio in the beginning. He first started to work with Sam's voice more pop dance videos and he was also a Michael Jackson impersonator after he stopped getting calls for acting. Sam was a child actor also. Check out Mommas site for a clip. The girls background danced with him. Then Momma Liliac said to Papa he should be working with Melodys voice. He wrote the string parts for this and I've seen on Instagram a partial score. I'm amazed at Florin because he's mostly self taught. He wasn't able to listen or play secular music growing up. I fee he has taken this journey with his children growing. Nice reaction. Peace. Stay safe. God Speed. FANG 4 LIFE! RORH 🤘 🦇
Justin said the hardest thing was carrying the piano through the sand . The sound at the very end I thought was the ocean was Melody breathing into the mic . Very cool .
I miss bands not doing the rock ballads and that's a shame. I was excited to hear this, when I herd they were going to do a ballad, and they knocked it out of the park. Awesome. RO&RH
Papa Liliac put out an album in the 80's (Chriss Floren: ruclips.net/video/dsq7AyKBCSA/видео.html ) and was a music producer (for MTV at one point). I don't know if the mom was into music.
I saw an interview where Melody said that she has learned a new instrument and that it will be in a new music video. She said it's a secret though, so I don't know what instrument Melody has picked up. Justin is learning Rhythm guitar to go along with his keyboard and piano.
Great reaction also at a concert bands use the ballad. To slow down the pace of the concert That is how they did it at concert in Harrisburg. All there songs are phenomenal live but that is not true with all bands.
Dude MANOWAR was and is BAD ASSED!!!!!!! Their father is a singer as well, look up his music videos under Criss Floren. Hes more pop though. And in one video you see his 3 oldest skate under his and Ninettes arms. Simple reacts has those videos on his. Channel and Cristy Rawks also knows the songs I'm referencing as well.
@@cristyrawks6325 for me those early videos are something special. While like you said about Sam's vocals. But I think Sam's backing vocals blend perfectly with Melody's power rock voice. Kinda reminds Jen Ledger's backing vocals blending perfectly with John Cooper of Skillet. In fact Liliac and Skillet bring a passion and energy to their music that are similar. FYI I'm a big Skillet fan too. Lol When I heard both bands were playing Montana I was so disappointed that I couldn't be there. RORH
@@timothywyer7064 To me tho, his vocals aren't tuned up enough to be heard as the backup which essentially is the harmony. The two need to blend equally and his are drowned out by her power "crushed diamonds on velvet" voice. I just can't hear him very well Timothy. But that's me.
@@cristyrawks6325 good point. But to me Mars and Rainbow in the Dark were the two songs I recall where it was pretty obvious to me the two vocal styles blended really well. Almost forgot the song Piece of my Heart. Lol
Same album as Dear Father. This one reminds a bit of Heart. Other people have compared it to November Rain, but I don't see it outside of the guitar solo. The violinist closest to the camera is Mama I think, Papa is a producer and a pretty good singer in his own right. Great reaction!
Every great metal band needs a power ballad, right? BTW: Papa LILIAC plays the accordion and used to sing professionally in addition to being a music producer.
Melody paints. You can see her art work on their website. Justin is interested in stand up comedy and Abigail in fashion and modeling. Ethan is a gamer besides playing multiple instruments. He probably rocks that as well. Their cover of Symphony of Destruction is a video that shows them in their outside interests. It is fun and campy offsetting the seriousness of the song. One reactor said he would have no problem letting his kids of any age watch it as opposed to the original. Mom and dad met in the church choir. Florin is a music producer by trade. The kids started taking an interest in his work and he got them instruments and lessons. BTW, Abby can play the accordion as well. Also, check this out. ruclips.net/video/dsq7AyKBCSA/видео.html Papa Liliac back in the day!!!!
The father is a producer and gave Melody and Sam singing lessons early. They then started taking instrument lessons for their individual instruments. The first artists they were around were rap artists that their father produced. Great reaction.
From what I THINK I know, the father is/was a music producer. The kids I guess showed interest at a VERY young age and were put in music classes. Not sure if the mother resides with them but I think she's a home nurse. Never hear too much about her unfortunately. When they started getting good, Papa had them playing at the San Monica Pier to get them comfortable playing in front of people. As they got better and better, they were bringing in too many people on the pier (Crazy Train) and were asked to stop playing there. And here we are now......sailing away. Check out Dear Father (latest video) and see how they are maturing. BTW....it took Metallica 30 years + to do a ballad. These guys are just getting started.

100% their music will mature so much! If they are this good already!

On quite a few songs, Sam matches Melody's voice going into the guitar solo. Really nice!

I think you meant Sam can hold his own as lead guitarist, since Sam is Lead guitar. Ethan plays Bass guitar.
@@jonathanwatson5818 now. Ethan used to play rhythm and lead guitar before Queen of Hearts came out and Mel rocked the bass.
@@warhammer5690 Oh I see, knew he played Rhythm didn't know he played Lead always assumed that was Sam.

What a wonderful reaction! They are fantastic and trying so hard to make it in the music world totally independent. 🤘🤘🤘
That’s the best way to do it! Complete creative freedom!
Best rock ballad I have heard in decades

In my opinion this is the best ballad I have heard in a long time.
Yes the father was involved in the music industry in Romania 🇷🇴.
I don't think so. He was 12 when his family moved to the US.
Rock on and Rock Hard! Fang for life!
The song reminds me alot of "November rain" from Guns and roses. The structure and Sam's solo vs Slash's solo
#Fang4Life, RORH, here we go!!!
This song has been constructed like many European symphonic metal songs.
Papa Liliac put out an album in the 80's (Chriss Floren: ruclips.net/video/dsq7AyKBCSA/видео.html ) and was a music producer (for MTV at one point). I don't know if the mom was into music.
Papa's album was released in 2009.... He was born in the 80's.... Mom was never in music... She does the business and merch side...
@@hefner73 It was his hair music style that made me think it was done in the 80's 😁
I saw an interview where Melody said that she has learned a new instrument and that it will be in a new music video. She said it's a secret though, so I don't know what instrument Melody has picked up. Justin is learning Rhythm guitar to go along with his keyboard and piano.
🦇🎶🤘
great reactiom and even better commentary.
I appreciate that
Great reaction also at a concert bands use the ballad. To slow down the pace of the concert That is how they did it at concert in Harrisburg. All there songs are phenomenal live but that is not true with all bands.
Her main influence is Ronnie James Dio. That is why some call her Melodio. Also they are friends with Dio;s wife and Vinny Appice.
I've heard that story and its so cool!
Papa Liliac is a musician and music producer. I do know he plays the accordion other than that I'm not sure what else.
If this song doesn't punch you in the feels, your dead inside. Just saying.
🤛 👊 🤜
the orchestra are fangs and so is the choir .. daddy can get LOT of fangss
This really is overall a beautifully done song and video, from every aspect. There “crowning jewel” as I like to call it.
Enjoy!
Fang4life! RO&RH! 🤘😎🤘

I don't think Mama is a musician, although she is very involved with the band's merchandising.
@@enzopalumbo2164 oh ok. Just repeating what someone said in comments in a video reaction. Thanks for the clarification!

makes sense why everything sounds so good!
Hay Joseph! Wanted to let you know, LILIAC JUST HIT A MILLION VIEWS ON THIER SAIL AWAY BALLAD!!!!!! I HAPPENED LAST NIGHT!!! HOW COOL!!!
🦇🪨🤘 #liliac
Father performed as Chriss Floren, does the filming, samual does the editing.
Mama Liliac does the home shcooling and the merchandizing
That’s a good way of looking at it. Sometimes a break would good. Good reaction, keep it going.
Appreciate it

Mama Liliac posts scripture on her page all the time and she's in charge of merch. She was at Rocklahoma.
Baldheaded did see Dear Father.
Always enjoy your reactions!! A reaction to a whole Liliac album down the line would be awesome. Keep killing it brother!!
Thank you I really appreciate that!
