@mardiluz We've been combing through out archives and digitizing as many old videos as possible. We've got classic videos queued up to launch every Friday for several months to come!
The search is over! I've been looking for this song for literally 23 years since I heard it on the radio. (Before São Paulo’s Monsters of Rock in 1996) I had completely given up trying to find and started considering it was my head playing tricks...How can a chorus stick to your brain for so long after listening to it only once? Evil. Can’t thank you enough for sharing this!
@@carloseugeniocarlos4287 sim! Depois disso vi na cidade de Catanduva com a banda solo. Naquele dia conheci o GRANDE Dark Avenger que abriu pra eles e fêz com que a banda principal saisse do backstage pra assistir boquiabertos a performance do Mário Linhares (RIP). Não à toa assinaram com o mesmo empresário.
I'm all alone I would like to say please next time you talk to your mother-in-law treat her with more kindness and respect in fact she is the one who had birth the one who you have decided to spend your life with.
Since i seen mercyful fate in the 80s he's went through guitarists like underwear LOL I don't know how Sweden keeps Producing them anyways they're all Great
Vozes enigmática a muita melodia armonia complexidade genialidade muito difícil de cantar e tocar assim foda a maneira de se vestir do vocalista é genial
badass song. love the video. king can be as goofy or whatever the fuck you want to call it he wants. this band has always been so underrated. I've always loved not only the lyrical contents but I think also not enough praise for both guitarist in the band. Some of the most memorable and beautiful solos over the years.
The song that started it all for me! Thanks to that college radio station who chucked the whole "Into the Unknown" CD into a box labeled "FREE" outside their door!
There's a little old man, standing by my window There's a little old man, hiding in the shadows The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend The uninvited guest, he would never come back again There's a little old man, I'd say he looks like Misery There's a little old man, I could really use his company The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend The uninvited guest, he would never come back again Come inside, and stay for a little while Come in from the cold and warm your heart "You would not know of me, we never met before The name is Damian and I used to live in this house" The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend The uninvited guest, he would never come back again There's a little old man, I'd say he looks like Misery There's a little old man, I could really use his company The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend The uninvited guest, he would never come back again So I said farewell, until we meet again You can come again my friend, any day you want I later learned that he was never here I later learned that he'd been dead a year The uninvited
Hellfest 2016 : This was the 1st time I've seen King Diamond, and it is my best festival show so far. I become a hudge fan of all his work, and I really should listen more Mercyful Fate !!!
I havent heard this since you guys put out that 2 cd compilation of Great bands I followed more after this year Thanks. Such a unforgetful song by the MIGHTY K.D. Bless you guys
In the early 2000s when RUclips wasn't around to discover music there used to be a TV show where I live that was on every Friday night between 11 and midnight that would play metal - they picked a different theme each week so sometimes it was mostly death metal, thrash, power metal etc. I used to stay up and watch it because it was a good way to find new bands. One week they were mostly doing more traditional heavy metal so there was Iron Maiden and Judas Priest and Ozzy Osbourne and so forth that I was already very familiar with - then this song suddenly came on, and that was my introduction to Mercyful Fate. I still remember at the end feeling like I was in sensory overload - been a big fan ever since!

What more would you need in a metal song?
Endless repeat until the end of time
Amen
@OSEK ROTTENSEED lol
@osekrottenseed666 hahaha
Uno de los grupos me falta un DVD para la colección
King Diamond a master of metal.
This song is so good... I cant belive i spent most of my life without Mercyful Fate
Never too late, my friend. Their entire discography along with King Diamond's is mind blowing and timeless.
juan if you missing mercyful fate check out ATTIC they are pure spirit from mercyful fate into satanism and occultism horror lyrics theme!
Mercyful, in my 60 min double sided cassette, helped me to endure high school. Im that grateful. 1996.
The same for me
Juan David Alarcón i know right
I watched Mercyful Fate on headbangers when I was a lil child and I scared the fucked up, then a couple years later i became one of the biggest fans of the king
Scott Bronwstone that’s how it was watching the Pink Floyd’s The Wall
This guy is something I can't explain
An authentic Masters of Metal
Michael Denner...the very best of "ALL" the underrated guitarist!
Thanks for all you've given.
@mardiluz We've been combing through out archives and digitizing as many old videos as possible. We've got classic videos queued up to launch every Friday for several months to come!
Hhhy6y
Uuuuu
Hail the King!!!!!
Indeed.
Great Band
King Diamond has such a wild imagination and his music keeps getting better.... I love his music because it never gets old.
Hail to the King
He's a master storyteller. I'd love to see some or all of his albums adapted into feature films.
That would be atmospheric
Them was turned into a movie
The search is over!

@supernaut3000 Made an endless Mercyful/King playlist and let it play in the background while working until it hit that chorus.
Você foi muito sortudo de ver o King ao vivo! O cara,com certeza,arrasa nos vocais!
@@carloseugeniocarlos4287 sim! Depois disso vi na cidade de Catanduva com a banda solo.

@@teacherluciano até hoje, o King Diamond canta demais
@@carloseugeniocarlos4287 Sem dúvidas!
Mercyful fate is back!!! 2020
JAMES MOLQUIN I know but no North America dates so far
For a song like this, you need to double the maximum setting on the volume control.
They're gonna be in Vegas in August
fucking covid
Covid: aaaaaaaannd it's gone
This is some good shit.
OLD SHIT BUT GOOD SHIT.
I play this song when my Mother in Law come to my house. She is The uninvited Guest!
Best comment here
Hahahahha the Best comment
I'm all alone I would like to say please next time you talk to your mother-in-law treat her with more kindness and respect in fact she is the one who had birth the one who you have decided to spend your life with.
🤣🤣🤣
My mom knows her place. Hint: far far away.
One of the best guitar partnerships for sure
Since i seen mercyful fate in the 80s he's went through guitarists like underwear LOL I don't know how Sweden keeps Producing them anyways they're all Great
Shermann and Denner to me are like Tipton and Downing and Murray and Smith.
Mercyful Fate is hands down in the top 5 of metal bands....the lyrics, musicianship and vocals are top notch, all the time everytime!!!!
These guys are the pioneers
O Mercyful Fate sempre será uma das melhores bandas do mundo 💛
I love this song so much. It rules..
Vozes enigmática a muita melodia armonia complexidade genialidade muito difícil de cantar e tocar assim foda a maneira de se vestir do vocalista é genial
Same here 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I love this song, Master King, I love it, it's my favorite.
I love this song
Love the drums on this. And Michael Denner is Godlike.
love the drums
Love mercyful fate and king diamond. they remind me of 80's horror flicks and that is to some cheesy and to others cool!!!
I think it is a bit cheesy but still so freakin cool.
Horror and metal is my religion 😁
badass song. love the video. king can be as goofy or whatever the fuck you want to call it he wants. this band has always been so underrated. I've always loved not only the lyrical contents but I think also not enough praise for both guitarist in the band. Some of the most memorable and beautiful solos over the years.
yeah you're right! he sure beats the hell outta Slipknot, though
Denner and Shermann: One of the greatest guitar duos of all time.
THERE'S A LITTLE OLD MAAAAAAN! STANDING BY MY WINDOW! This song slaps f*cking hard.
this video is so bad ass in a 90s way, makes me miss those days.
I miss the 90s too dude
For me one of the best song of 90s heavy metal
I was suggested by my former Philosophy teacher at high school to listen to this song... IT'S AWESOME! \,,/
And what he had with Diamond?
One of my favorite songs of the King 🤘
November 2020 and still rules this song.
Larga vida al Rey!
I love this song. It's Awesome
Incredible song.
The song that started it all for me! Thanks to that college radio station who chucked the whole "Into the Unknown" CD into a box labeled "FREE" outside their door!
Mercyful fate is and will always be my favorite band.. been a fan since the release of DBTO
I can’t with this song
Mercyful Fate están de regreso!!!! 2020
I miss the 90's videos, they were so stylish, and all of them had nice stories implied in the visuals
such a beautiful landscape, chilling story too
Filmed at Stevns klint Denmark. My home for 50 years . Hail Mercyful fate
I love how this song grooves then goes heavy then back to groovy
There's a little old man, standing by my window
There's a little old man, hiding in the shadows
The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend
The uninvited guest, he would never come back again
There's a little old man, I'd say he looks like Misery
There's a little old man, I could really use his company
The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend
The uninvited guest, he would never come back again
Come inside, and stay for a little while
Come in from the cold and warm your heart
"You would not know of me, we never met before
The name is Damian and I used to live in this house"
The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend
The uninvited guest, he would never come back again
There's a little old man, I'd say he looks like Misery
There's a little old man, I could really use his company
The uninvited guest, could never have been a friend
The uninvited guest, he would never come back again
So I said farewell, until we meet again
You can come again my friend, any day you want
I later learned that he was never here
I later learned that he'd been dead a year
The uninvited
King!!!
