I've been loving King/Fate since 88ish... I was 12 year's old😂🤘...now I got my son into him when he was 9ish... he's 20 now and he still does he also calls me all the time "hey dad I want to learn how to play such,amd such what's the name of that King song?"( My son plays guitar)🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@tedmayer1597 Me too. My son is 24 and has liked King since he was young. My older brother loves him as well after i played the King for him 30 years ago. So many of my friends are still fans to this day. Which is amazing considering how underground King Diamond was in the 80's.
@@PRHILL9696 Its OK. Most singers use background vocals to enhance their vocal lines. In the past, King used a "double track" to replace backing vocals on his recordings. But in live performances it is more honest to use backing vocals. So it's no big deal that he now uses backing vocals on his recordings as well.
@@PRHILL9696 WTF he does all the high notes. She does "Backup" singing. Not sure why you'd even think that. That would mean on new songs and during the concerts it's her singing most of every song since King sings high notes 80% of the time.
@@PRHILL9696They both come through in the mix and King is still going full force with the falsetto. I think her vocals just add a cool extra element to everything that was already working. Especially with the live material.
When I was a kid in the 70's and saw pictures of Kiss before actually hearing them, this is what I expected them to sound and be like. LOL. There have been decades of scary band pretenders, but with King Diamond, what you see is exactly what you get.
King still tip top after all these years. And Andy is quite simply one of the greatest writers/producers of metal music and one of the most underrated guitarists of all time.
Exactly! One of my all time favorite bands and Andy LaRocque is one of my favorite guitarists. Having Andy on our show was truly one of the highlights of our show, incredible guy and a truly wonderful guest!
i am listening King....since 1985....and i am still listening every day on my mobile.....he is one of a kind....and of course Andy Larocque is the best!!!!
@@ronkramer9737 Oh. Thanks. I remember a song coming out then, and I thought this was new. Let's hope an album comes soon. Then I will own it and not have to remember a song that is only on RUclips from 2019.
Im 53 this year these people have been killing it since before I was even born ! There really is no words that can explain what it means to be hearing this now.
Fuckin' rad. This is much better quality than the videos for GMYSP. Looking forward to the new album and just know that you have plenty of souls still patiently and eagerly awaiting it. Love everything you do. Keep it up.
No cambia su estilo 😢 ojala y ya salga el álbum completo cuantos años escuchándolo y jamás me canso de escuchar cada álbum tanto king diamond y mercyful fate son únicos larga vida a el señor KING DIAMOND 💀🤘
This song is amazing !! Just wish it was louder!! IMO King Diamond discography from Melissa to Give Me Your Soul has been incredible. Absolute magic that transcends music! Will wait as long as it takes for the new music because I know it will be quality!! Hope to see a new single soon tho !
This is a great track. I love the production of it. You can actually hear that it's all real instruments. The drum sound might be the best part as it just has such an organic sound.
I saw Mercyful Fate in 1984 on there very first American soil show in Portland Oregon, saw them three more times. Seen King Diamond three times and met him on the THEM tour and got my picture taken with him with no makeup. Saw him again in 2019. I'm 55 and now can die a happy man now
im 14 right now and i went to a king diamond concert in 2015, November 23rd, 2015 - Pittsburgh, PA - Stage AE. i got to touch the stage i got a drum stick and king himself handed me a rose pedal and a pick. king if you read this, awsome music, don't ask me how but i was on my dads shoulders and fell asleep mid concert and i peed my pants in my sleep on his shoulders. the king diamond concert is a core memory of mine...
Anytime an older band like King Diamond sees a young person in the audience instead of old timers like me, it's refreshing. Young people/teenagers are the lifeblood of metal music, and gets depressing for a band from the 80s to see nothing but old people in the audience night after night. King Diamond probably appreciated seeing you there.
@Michael-jw6et when I talk about it to my dad he said that king tried to give me a fist bump and I was scared for some reason, but also right after "I didn't see it" king thanked my dad
Yes, it´s a very good song, classic King Diamond. Like 1986 again. It took four years from the release to the video. If we assume, that new record has 10 songs, so it´s not gonna take 40 years to release the new album. I´m sure King lives forever, but I sure don´t have that much time left. Sooner the better. Long live King Diamond !
Love King 💜… love the new old song 🖤… but it‘s heartbreaking to wait and wait for a new album that is yearly announced but seems never ever to be released 😭
KD stages are always awesome, all practicals and little to no obnoxious video walls. I do stagehand work and would love to work on a King Diamond show, if he ever came to the Twin Cities.
I already filmed this music video when I saw it live 4 years ago. Same set, same people, same acting and visuals. I still love it but this didn’t scratch my KD itch. Give us the rest of the story! We’re in a KD drought out here!

I agree
He is one of the best guitar players in the world...!!!!
He also played in the band Death, an excellent guitarist!!

a 4 year old song, great we love it, now we want the rest of the album please!
Almost 10 years old!
He's 80, chill 😂

He's older, but so are all of us. He still rocks. Long live the KING!
I was 18 when I listened this song live in 2019, I think I'm going to have grandsons when the album is out. Hail the King btw
😅😅😅
that will make me a grand grand father Ive been waiting since the last album came out LOL
At least it's closer to coming out!
I know right!
18 is actually nine
It's almost not fair. Having King Diamond is like having three singers in one. He must truly be possessed.
KING!!! Let's go, can't wait to hear the new album!!!
oh, you'll certainly wait.....

Andy on guitar !!! Andy is awesome as always and the King still kicking ass in 2024 !!! All hail the king !
The visuals are fricking amazing! And the song is still a banger after 4 years!
One of the best King Diamond videos ever made! It´s a classic already!
No, it's not...
Lol. Calm down.
It is!@@lucascarvalho8758
He's still incredible. No one sounds like the King. And that band wails! You can be HEAVY and still have melody. Great stuff.
Fuckin love King Diamond. Been listening to his music since I was 12. I'm 48 now. I'm thankful he continues to write 🍻👍
i'm 48 also i never heard of king diamond until i was 27 and my ex loved king diamond
im 50 and i love his music, favorite album was them, so glad hes still going
My age 48.....king first time at 94
Better mix/mastering than previous
Great classic King, big production, fantastic guitars. 🤘
Great to see him and the band are doing OK. Hope this means the album will be out soon. Thank you for everything You gave us, King.

0:34, man I love that melody!! Lines like that are one of the reasons I ADORE your music!!
It is so like his 80s tunes!!
@@herrfranz The harmony is spectacular.
Long Live King Diamond.
🤘🏻😈🤘🏻
This is an amazing King Diamond song! Captures the perfect melodic, eerie, classic horror feel he is so great at writing!
A great privileged voice with an excellent band providing the darkness of music for all of us who live King Diamond.🤟👿🤟
I have seen you every time you come to Chicago since the 80s and I’m seeing you again this November 2024
Pqp King Diamond e Mercyful fate são as minhas paixões de infância, não tem como,muito obg por alegrar minha semana 🎉
Best Christian band ever. A true man of God

His voice has only grown stronger over the years, it's absolutely other worldly.

I loved the video clip. I remembered the two times I saw the Institute's tour and went in to say hello to the whole band. Up the King 🎩💎🤘🏻
This is awesome. Can't wait for the album. This has so much "Abigail" vibes.
This is a great track. I love the production of it. You can actually hear that it's all real instruments. The drum sound might be the best part as it just has such an organic sound.
In an absolute checkmate move, the Lord of Horror releases a video on Halloween's day.
Awesome 👍 song. Such talented musicians these guys are. Keep jamming guys cause age is just a number 👍🤘🎤🎸🎧.
This band has always been awesome
Absolutely!!! one of the best to ever do it! Loved having Andy LaRocque on our show, truly wonderful guy!
I love it. Now I am waiting rest of the album. Hail for the king!!
Awesome song and video. Would love to see and hear more of Livia though.
King Diamond is without a question the best. Come to Finland again! King Diamond live is the best.
Unmistakable style of His Majesty
I will forever and always love this man. From the first song I ever heard 16 years ago to today!
I saw Mercyful Fate in 1984 on there very first American soil show in Portland Oregon, saw them three more times. Seen King Diamond three times and met him on the THEM tour and got my picture taken with him with no makeup. Saw him again in 2019. I'm 55 and now can die a happy man now
… and on Halloween! What a way to celebrate the spooky season! I LOVE IT!
I love the way King appears on the scene. Just few seconds and we know he's back. Long live the King!
Love the video! Can’t wait to hear what you have in store for us! Hail to the King! HS!

Whats better for a Halloween present than a new King Diamond song? Nothing!
Can´t belive how intact his voice still is. Couldn´t ask for more.
Well, it's nearly 4 years old, so not exactly "new"
I share your sentiments!
Was a great little Halloween suprise ..I don't care if it's 4 years old.
After all these years, this guy, this band, they're still one of the greatest metal bands ever.
Great.....King when you come to Argentina, we've been waiting for you for a thousand years bro!
