This is a fantastic rock song. So underrated. Not even Tobias believed in it but it got so many plays on digital platforms that he had to start playing it live. It's about the Grim Reaper coming to collect the debt that this man had got selling his soul to the devil. (What you sold you can not unsell meaning what is done is done and can't be changed). The lyric "while you sleep in earthly delight, someones flesh is rotting tonight" really makes you think that in the same second i write this someone takes his/hers last breath on earth. Mind-blowing.
I was sad when they stopped playing it live, as it's one of my favorite tunes, but I understand that it was a hard one to pull off the 'vibe' live. Some of their songs translate better to different mediums and maybe this one is at its best when you're by yourself in a dark room.
The song "Witch Image" by Ghost explores the idea of the consequences of one's actions. The narrator warns that the listener will never be able to undo the things that they have done, even as they sleep in earthly delight. He then paints a vivid picture of someone else's flesh rotting away as a result of their choices, symbolizing the haunting impact one's choices can have on others. The lyrics also allude to the idea of the listener being helplessly taken to hell by their own mistakes, with no way out of the consequences. Ultimately, the song suggests that one cannot simply “erase” their wrongdoings and must accept their fate.
Love yout reactions on Ghost sm. And also ABSOLUTELY recommend the song "Faith". It's in the same album as "Witch Image" and "Rats", and based on how you enjoyed these two i think you'll love this one
This song when I heard it touched my soul. Your reaction is so fitting. The love you have for music is great to see. The last line in the song "Like a Mother would save her own child for digging a grave" is powerful. My favorite ghost line ever! Can't wait for your next one. Hint hints He Is. Watcher in the Sky.
Just binged a lot of your reaction videos about Ghost and I loved it!! Ghost is such a fantastic band and their music makes you feel so much emotions, it's fire 🔥🔥
This song made me fall in love so hard with this band that I can’t even stop listening this album! It’s been a week and a half and I’m still listening all day. I am so in love with Tobias/Papa and the songs! So good
I remember when this album dropped. I hadn’t been this excited for an album before. I listened to every song while on vacation driving to Orlando. This is the first song that really stuck in my head.
Witch Image is surely the most underrated song by Ghost. I love their entire catalog, but I don't get why this song didn't make it to Imperatour, while Meliora has 6 song in the set. I'd trade He Is for Witch Image in the setlist anyday!
More GHOST! The final song from Impera is Respite on the Spitalfields. This is the fall of the empire. This is an emotional 😢 song and now we all wait for the next album.
One of my favorite songs. Is about death, and suicide. The reaper's perspective, talking to us. The line that says someone's flesh is rotting tonight like bo other, to you what you jave done you can not undo, refers to the permanence of death. The inevitability of it all. We never want death to appear, but it is always there behind us in a pale whote horse, closer than we think. We can try avoid it but to no avail...we will all suffer this plight..want it or not. Beautiful song. So much truth.
OMG you finally did Witch Image! My number 1 favourite song from Ghost. I knew you'd love it! I recognise Anya from The Witch so maybe this is a fan made video?
You absolutely need to listen to Fed Up by Ghostemane. It’s a must. Idk if you’ve already reacted to it but, if you haven’t, you really freaking should. The music video is insane and so is the song in general. It sounds awesome and the lyrics are actually really good.
This song is so underrated, I love it soooo much Have u reacted to Watcher in the Sky yet? bc I know how u like a good guitar solo, and Watcher in the Sky, imho, has their COOLEST guitar solo yet
I don’t know if it’s been brought up but ghost really isn’t a band, it’s Tobias who at least writes the music, writes and records the guitars the “band” is replaceable people for touring. So all those guitars and solos you like are Tobias. A few songs he didn’t write like year zero. Also, they mostly play with pop culture satan which is much different than the biblical satan that Europeans know. I’d guess he uses it because it’s taboo and taboo sells. Nevertheless, he’s a damn genius

Tobias is the best song writer around today!

If you want a song that is really out of ghosts normal sound, listen to life eternal
Amazing 👏
