It's hard not to respect a man like Voltaire. His very /presence/ demands respect. I mean, who else can pull off wearing a silk top hat tilted to the side whilst singing about demon-slaying at an anime convention in New England? No-one, that's who.
If you watch his series Gothic Homemaking he says (on more than one occasion) that he's somehow. Over tge years become everyone's Spooky Goth Dad. & he sounds quite proud of this. 💀
I saw Voltaire and his son fighting Star Wars style on the lawn at a convention a few years ago. The way they were swinging, kicking and ducking, it looked like they were well practiced. =) Yeah, he seems like an awesome dad.
@TheBrianWashed Tunning two half steps down, chords are Em, D, Em, B7 and it switches to Em, D, C, D, a couple of times, just listen to it chorus is G, D, C,D just remember it's two half steps down as in DGCFAD have fun with the song ^^
@spiritofcourage he has a tendency of appearing at anime and scifi conventions to perform u gotta look around to see which 1 he's performing at last yr I saw him in the megacon convention in Orlando FL
Is it just me or can anyone else who's read Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Imagine Susan singing this to Gawain & Twyla after threatening to bash the. Boogyman under the bed with the poker. 💀
could u imagine going to school and saying "hey ur name ehre wuts ur dad do?" "oh ym dad? he's a famous goth scene music writer, and artist, plus a professor at a school of art,." *gasp*"whats ur dad name" *pause*"....Voltaire."
"Not anime"
"IT HAS TENTACLES!"
Cracks me up!

you got all the reason my friend
Voltaire seems chill as fuck.
Voltaire must be the coolest dad ever lol
Not anime.
But-
NOT ANIME!
hahaha Voltaire is amazing.
"Looks like it's drawn by Tim Burton."
I'd say that's a big compliment.
WHOA! Someone that actually pronounced "anime" correctly!!!
*claps*
I fall in love with his voice ❤
The irony of his son saying that Voltaire isn't anime is that the song he sang him that very night sounds like it should be the outro for an anime
that is true
Goodness, he sounds so absolutely wonderful singing this song. So tender in spots yet always darkly playful. Voltaire's a glorious maverick. Rock on!
Ive always wanted to meet Voltaire in person at one of his concerts.
Spirit of Courage so would I.
best lullaby ever!
Agreed.
The way he said "That's great poppa makes me laugh". hahaha
i wish voltaire was my dad

everytime i hear this son i nearly fall asleep cuz its so peacful.....
I'd never heard of this man until a friend at work sent me a link to this video -- he is awesome, and this is a great song!
well, I know what I'm listening to every time I go to bed from now on.
His son had a cameo on his "Almost Human" album cover. And sings on his newest CD: "To the Bottom of the Sea"
Love this song
Move over rob zombie and Marilyn Manson I have found a new Goth man to fawn over and dream about.
That was.. the most... beutiful guitar playing... I have ever heard. This song made me sob it was so good.
i know i should be appreciating the music but i jst cant stop thinking HOW IS HIS HAT NOT FALLING OFF???
Voltaire is just that cool.
Vampire magic
Wow I must be the same age as his son because I was 9 too back then in 2007. Wowzers! Love this song! And the word anime!
That moment when you relies his son is your age. Fuck.
Voltaire Is Such A Kind Dad ^_^

This is what I will sing my children
I really wanna sing this song to my niece as a lullaby.

Voltaire's kid is funny but he must be an awesome pops agreed?
Technically, even if Deady was made in Japan, it wouldn't be an anime, because anime is "animation" in Japanese. :I
what is deady a song done by Voltaire
I think Deady is just a character he made.
Robert Shaw It was a comic book.
Love this song! And his hat haha XD
Is it just me or can anyone else who's read Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Imagine Susan singing this to Gawain & Twyla after threatening to bash the. Boogyman under the bed with the poker. 💀
