- Jack Black. Meat Loaf. Ronnie James Dio. Tenacious D. How have I never heard about this?! I wanted to find the best way to tribute Meat Loaf's passing, and thought no better way to welcome him into the afterlife than Dio. This is the opening song to "The Pick of Destiny" by Tenacious D, and it absolutely rocked my socks off!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Meat Loaf, Dio and Tenacious D performing "Kickapoo”.

#TenaciousD #Reaction #TheCharismaticVoice
-------------
Hello everyone! I can't believe the success of this video in the first day... it's insane. Thank you for coming to watch this Tribute! (see what I did there?)
I would LOVE to film myself watching The Pick of Destiny for you all, as many requests down below have stated, but I unfortunately can't. There's a lot of filming and projects that I work on, that sometimes I need that buffer between that active listening for analysis videos and enjoyment, and watching this movie falls directly into the enjoyment category. Especially while pregnant, I need ways to turn work off in my head.
I'm really sorry. I know you all would want to see my explosion of laughter at certain parts of the film, but I have to care for my mental health the best I can.
Thank you all for understanding, and thank you once again for supporting Meat Loaf, Dio, Tenacious D and this channel!
With much love,
Elizabeth
You'll love the movie, everyone needs time away from work - you work so you can live and enjoy life not live so you can work so no apologies needed to anyone. Enjoy
You don't need to apologize, you do enough for us already. Watch the movie and enjoy it. Thank you for all your work.
There is just so much to love in this particular mashup of brilliant talents. Kudos to Jack and cage for making this brilliant alignment of the Stars a reality. Totally off topic but since I may have your eyes... Is there a reason you have not had Melissa Cross on is a guest yet? It seems a shoo-in given where you've been taking the channel in terms of appreciation for all styles of vocals.
Me and my friend are metal heads and apparently both of us found you independently of each other and we love your channel. You are adorable and great!
@@lightdampsweetenough2065 Thank you so much! I hope I provide enough for both of you to enjoy. ;-)
I love how the kid is literally how I imagine a young Jack Black to be.
Yeah they found a great kid to play him. Fun fact though there’s an old commercial for the game pitfall that he’s actually in. It was his first acting role
This is Barry from The Goldbergs
I wonder how much work was put into the kid mimicking Black's reactions and mannerisms. He sells being Jack Black very well with the facial expressions alone - especially the eyes and eyebrows.
For me, It's between that kid and Dave Grohl's Devil for best overall acting performance in this film
It’s perfect!! Lol
That kid needs credit for how well he can imitate Jack Black's mannerisms and facial expressions
JB does give the boy mega props if you listen to the commentary for the movie.
@@adamf4196 do you know where can I find the commentary?
@@kendarr on the dvd
@@Lamont15 thx!
That kid is Barry from the Goldbergs A.K.A Big Tasty.
I love how Meatloaf's verse and Dio's verse both perfectly fit their musical style.
I'd say all of the musicians in this have their styles represented well. Even Dave Grohl 's as Satan
rip
@@SirBigWater YESS!! Dio and Meatloaf get a lot of love, and so does Jack & Kyle, but man Dave I don't feel gets enough love for his part as Satan.
@@soulessshadow5356 it's honestly probably because almost nobody but the diehard fans even know it is him.
@@williameldridge9382 Everyone knows it's him by this point
It’s so weird watching MeatLoaf essentially portrait his own father in this movie. Very smart casting choice.
yep....from all reports, his Dad expected ML to be a pro footballer !
Jack Black had always wanted Meat Loaf to play as his dad everytime. He told Meat Loaf about it over & over.
RIP Loaf
I hope it was cathartic for him.
I knew that was him ❤️😆
Fun fact: Dio's verse only took him one take. Imagine making a movie about your band and Dio accepts to participate in it. I would die from my happiness!
I love that he actually asked if they wanted another round coz he wasn't happy with part of it, and Jack was just nah you're good
Not only that, he'd heard Tenacious D's song "Dio" like a decade beforehand and said something to the effect of "who the fuck are these guys? Yeah... Not passing my crown and scepter anytime soon." So the D were huge fans, annoyed their idol with a song about how he's getting too old and how they're putting him in a nursing home, and then their idol wound up being cool in the long run and did a cameo in their move.
There's a video on YT of Dio recording his part and at one point one of the guys listening drops to the floor haha which is obviously the appropriate reaction. SO COOL Surely a dream for the guys!
He's just a man. Nothing more, nothing less.
Bruh imagine getting pumped for a day of recording with dio, just for him to wrap it up in a quick 10 minute set.
It’s so depressing how CRIMINALLY underrated Jack Black is. Not only Jack Black’s voice, but Kyle Gass’s guitar skills, Tenacious D as a band and The Pick Of Destiny as a rock film
What's crazy is people know Jack black as an actor rather than from his music. And yes one of the best voices to ever be. And Kyle Gass graduated from the school of Juilliard at a relatively young age. Amazing guitarist
I think jack black is plenty famous, but you’re right, Kyle gass’s guitar skills and how underrated POD is TRULY should be criminal.
@@six66string I just meant that, relative to how good Jack’s voice is, I don’t think enough people know about / acknowledge it 👍
@@DanielLee1 yeah I agree with that
It's the same as be kind rewind, his genius is destined for cult classic status
"FORM A STRONG ALLIANCE" the way he delivers that phrase is metal as hell.
I mean the man arguably invented delivering lines in a metal kind, way back with rainbow. When Sabbath were still bluesing around with Ozzy, Dio was fucking telling us about fucking wizards building towers and shit. When I think metal ass diction I hear Dio in my head.
@@ithemba lol, true. dio invented and perfected the "metal as hell" delivery.
@@ithembaDior’s voice definitely invented that style of metal voice. But I much prefer growls and snarls instead of singing and I also ozzy’s Black Sabbath. When dio joined it just became boring to me
RIP Dio. He was indeed metal as hell.
Not only did Dio shred their mic, he then did this in 1 take on his mic. Fuckin legend. He was 64 and still singing with this much power.
Im pretty sure there is at least another take, it sounds very similar but not exactly the same. It was on yt lve no idea if still exists
Voice of a true Lord of metal 🤘
@@flparg2 yeah, he did one take with the studio microphone, then he did another take with his own mic
And then went on to do an EPIC reunion album and tour with Sabbath under the name "Heaven and Hell"
"I think we just need to take a moment to appreciate Jack Black's voice." - Truer words were never spoken.
People are so dismissive of Tenacious D because they're a comedy act, especially nowadays as their main moment of cultural relevance is sadly past. But Jack Black and Kyle Gass are genuinely solid musicians, and "comedy act" or not, Tenacious D comes from a place of such deep love and respect from both of them towards the music of the 60s/70s that changed their lives and shaped who they are.
They are the best band in the world
He was the bloke that got me into rock :)
@@adamhoisington9761 The greatest and best band in the world!
@@graboidian “it is the best song in the world, the best song in the wooorlld”
Jack Black is a sort of modern day bard in his ability to convey a story through song. He's definitely the kind of guy you imagine singing you into battle.
I'm game. Onward noble steed!
@@spddracer galloping into battle and from behind yo hear calls of
'Riga-googoo rigagoogoo!'
Every now and then he busts out a Dio cover on live tv. it's so good.
Astute observation.
He's the kind of guy you want to play an RPG with either tabletop or MMORPG.
To have 2 (now deceased) rock legends in this song gives this a lot more weight in the history of music than I think it was initially intended for
Way to miss the point completely 👍
The thing that I've always really liked about Meatloaf's part in this movie, is often Meatloaf's most popular songs are about the drama and freedom of being a teenager, but this time he is on the opposite side as a restrictive and high-strung parent while maintaining that same Steinman-esque style.
I agree. The irony is delicious , the casting as his father a MASTERstroke.
But the scene also incorporates his early “Never Gonna be as Heavy as Jesus” days
Fun Fact: For this film, production actually travelled back in time so they could cast young Jack Black as Young Jack Black just to add to the film's unprecedented realism.
I always him pegged for an adolescent Dragon f*****
Young Jack Black in this scene is literally Barry Goldberg from the tv show The Goldbergs. He looks absolutely nothing like jack black now btw
I fact checked this time travel info. Totally checks out.
@@bradlyblitzkreig8048 Hopefully with consent...
Don’t forget they actually found Sasquatch for the purposes of making the film more realistic
The pick of destiny is such a brilliant movie, this song really sets up the story brilliantly and who better to start it than three great styles of singing in Jack Black, Dio and Meat Loaf.
May he rest in Rock Heaven..😪
do not foregt the awesome performance of Dave Grohl as the himself 🙂 lets see if you recognize him 🙂
@@TheNarvaine and he played the same character in Tribute, as well as in the HBO series, although I am not 100% on the last one.
I transferred colleges in 2007 and didn’t know many people yet, and I watched this movie in my room LOVING it….about a hundred times.
I made a bunch of friends and made them watch, too. 😆
Let’s take a dip in the stwawbewwy wivver
One little detail i've always loved is that Meatloaf's section ends up really mirroring Young JB's in the rhythm. To me it's always represented a sort of...truth that the characters are more alike than either would like to admit. And reflecting some of rock's beginnings in gospel music.
I just can't stop smiling at how adorable it is to watch a professional opera singer totally fangirling (probably not a word) over JB. It makes the dumpster fire that the world is at the moment feel like a much nicer place 😊 also just fyi the kid playing the young JB also played his younger self in Nacho libre
The world has always been a dumpster fire bro.
Almost like Billy Joel made a song about it or something
He was great in Nacho!
I have no idea how known this fact is, but: "Dio" literally means "God" in Italian. As an Italian, the moment when the father tells him to praise the Lord and he praises Dio instead kills me every time
How did I not realize this until now?
Wow!!! I love it!! I’d love to be Italian when I watched it the first time 🔥
Haha, I had never made that connection to Meat Loaf's last line before
Ciao
kono dio da
Fun fact: Dio did his part in one take. Perfection.
Wendy Dio said in an interview that they did one practice take, then one take for the record.
There is a videoclip going around with JB watching Dio at the studio when he was recording his part. You can see JB's brain explode when he understands the level of Dio's excellence in person... You can feel the goosebumps through everybody present during that moment...
ruclips.net/video/G4YgA0mSF0Q/видео.html
Look at the guy just falling to the ground, and how JB is just bowing his head... What a moment...
You can watch it here... watch?v=G4YgA0mSF0Q I love it JB's face on the 2nd verse and how Dio asks "Another one?" at the end and everyone's like "no!!!"
@@GreekHighlander o never saw JB speachless like this!
Can we just, sit down and appreciate how positive this channel is? I am always in a good mood after a video from Elizabeth.
I agree! Same thing happens when I watch Harry Mack. Positive and infectious energy!
According to Jack Black DIO brought his own mic to record his part of this song and the engineers wanted to use their top of the line mics they used 3 different 1s and DIO's voice was so powerful he overpowered them with the levels turned all the way down and DIO said that's why he brought his own mic
incredible. and yet completely believable because it's him
When a legend such as Dio walks in with his OWN mic…the engineers should say there must be a reason and let him do his thing!
Can we appreciate how Jack Black was able to get both Meat Loaf AND Dio in the movie? Not to mention having Dave Grohl play the devil at the end.
It was easy to get Dave Grohl to play the Devil. They just asked him to take off his Dave Grohl make-up....
did you know? In school, Jack black used to tell people Meatloaf was his father
Dave Grohl was just returning the favor for Foo Fighters - Learn To Fly 😁
Reprising his role from Tribute
The fact that we have turned Elizabeth into a total rock fan to the point where she appreciates the Black sabbath t shirt is hilariously awesome!
🤘🤘🤘
Converted thru and thru!
@@pedropimenta896 yay, a black sheep 🖤
rock is a lot closer to classical than people think. that's why it's stood the test of time.
Good work, rock on 🤘🤘🤘
"We need to take a moment to appreciate Jack Blacks' voice" you said it! I feel he is underrated because comedy in music isnt taken seriously. I wish he did MORE with his gift. Love me some TD.
i keep telling people that if he tried making not comedy music he would be a legend, but he carved his own legend anyway. look at some of his impromptu singing, he joins a street performer and just jams with him
The kickapoo video always brings me nothing but pure joy. Every single performance is staggeringly perfect, and Liam lynch is an incredible director
As a film, The Pick of Destiny has no right being as freaking good as it actually is. It is steeped in rock folklore and inside jokes, their attention to detail with the bits of History they divulge among the whispered inner secrets of legendary guitar players and how they achieved said Mastery... It's really a good time. I bet you will enjoy it very very much.
I mean that's it really. The film should have been terrible and it somehow became a cult classic.
The film "Suck" is also a great rock film with great songs and guests.
@@sfuirhg I thought I was the only one who thought Suck was brilliant.
@@dunndudebemelol because it never tried to be anything more than what it really was, it's not pretentious or trying to be a masterpiece. Sure it's silly and over the top. But it's a sincere homage to rock and music and they genuinely had a blast making it. And that passion for music and fun comes across to the viewers. that's what made it brilliant
The funniest thing about the movie is that meatloaf was 100% right about rock being from the devil according to the movie
Master Exploder is another great song from the Pick of Destiny. Killer vocals.
I do not need a microphone 🤣
My voice is fuckin, POWERFULLLL!!
The Master Exploder scene also has a cute reference to the story about Dio's voice being too much for the studio mic, when JB sets the microphone on fire with his voice :D
I did not mean to blow your mind...
But that shit happen to me...
I just realized that Dio's line "through the valley you must walk" could actually be the San Fernando Valley just north of Hollywood. Except JB ends up getting to Hollywood from the opposite side.
Don’t know if it’s mentioned anywhere else, but this is the first movie since Rocky Horror that Meatloaf sang in. He wanted to be appreciated as an actor in films. Not just a singer.
Fight Club he was great in
This was Meatloaf’s first time singing in a movie since RHPS. He was a powerhouse. And that kid…I’m not completely convinced they didn’t invent time travel to grab Jack Black as a child cause that’s him. No doubt.
If I'm not mistaken that kid went on to be in Nacho Libre and played Barry Goldberg in The Goldbergs on TV...his name is Troy Gentile.
@@brokebackjoker4521 nah man it's 100% baby black jack.
Right? That kid captured Jack Black's mannerisms PERFECTLY. Down to facial expressions and everything.
@@brokebackjoker4521 Yes, he played "young Jack Black" in two movies in the same year (2006). A great start to an acting career.
That kid is the lovechild of Jack Black and Meat loaf.
The problem with JB is the same problem Bo Burnham, Psychostick, and related artists, is that people don't look at them with nearly as much respect as they should because they are also comedy musicians. But that makes it MORE impressive, because these are all incredibly talented artists
not just them, Tim Minchin as well. and the dude managed to get nominated for a handful of tonys as well for 2 incredibly successfull plays.
in my opinion it is way more impressive that the songs they make can make you laugh smile and be amazed at the vocal talent they are true bards
I only discovered Psychostick about a year ago. NSFW still makes me laugh. But I can't believe that they don't have more exposure, their songs are on the same level as non-comedy bands.
Don’t forget Stephen Lynch. Amazing voice control and his stage presence and facial expressions are top notch in the comedy music game.
The Italian Band Nanowar of Steel. Amazing Musicians.
I definitely grew up with the "Rock is not the devil's work, it's magical and rad" mindset. My dad's favorite bands were Led Zeppelin, ZZ Top, Tom Petty, Lynyrd Skynyrd. He always encouraged me to turn the volume up and I still love those moments with him.
Def Leppard and Queen were great as well as Elton John
I think "Master Exploder" really shows off how incredibly talented Jack Black is and what a damn legend he could've been if he took himself seriously. I am eternally grateful for Tenacious D, but really they could have been one of the all time greatest bands if they wanted to.
But they already are
Kickapoo 🤟🏻How they squeezed so many huge personalities into one song is Amazing. Long live The D
They even got Dave Grohl back, Ben Stiller, and a few others. PoD was far better than people gave it credit for when it came out.
It's pretty incredible, but. Meat Loaf had been performing on and off Broadway for years and had such experience. That and his acting talent is just utter gold. That coupled with Dio, it's just unforgettable. I watched this video another 3 times after filming it.
@@TheCharismaticVoice Should watch some Rocky Horror Picture Show if you haven't seen those. Possibly Meat Loaf at his best.
@@TheCharismaticVoice Must react to the video for "I Would Do Anything For Love", great song and such a theatrical performance! Kind of a Beauty and the Beast thing.
Love your channel and all of your authentic reactions to these great singers.
ruclips.net/video/9X_ViIPA-Gc/видео.html
I honestly think Jack Black is one of the most underrated singers of all time.
People just look at him as a comedian and don't realize how good his voice is. His range is impressive.
He sang into my face three years ago, and I can say, those pipes are real. This man would probably be considered one of the greatest rock vocalists of our time, if people wouldn't just see the clown.
I absolutely agree
I think Jack is an amazing singer. Truly. I hope I get to talk with him someday.
Easily
I get teary eyed when he says "Now go, my son, and rock!"
I like how the music changed with each musician, to their own music styles. When Meatloaf was singing, I felt like I was watching Rocky Horror Picture Show 🤣
Fun fact: the kid who played Young JB was so good at being Jack Black that they cast him as Young Ignacio in Nacho Libre a few years later
Also: just subscribed! ROCK ON 🤘
He’s on the Goldbergs now
Nacho Libre and Pick of Destiny came out the same year. I wouldn’t be surprised if they grabbed him for one based on the other but the timeline is a little different.
Another fun fact, the kid is the older brother on the Goldbergs.
@@johnwhitelaw4608 damn, I've seen that show a lot and never picked up on that
He's now hot af and Jack black isn't hahah
Meatloaf's part in this is incredibly good. His ability to put theatrics into his vocals is pretty damn strong.
I don’t think any performer outside of pure musical theatre visually expresses the music like Meatloaf did.
I love when he slaps the belt to the beat of the song!
RIP MEATLOAF!!!💜💜
Sounds like a pastor preaching with the fluctuation in tone
That’s to me what sets him so far apart from every other rocker.
Just realized I hadn’t seen this since Meat Loaf and Dio died 😢 also it’s really awesome that with your extensive classical/institutional music background you treat all music as valuable. It adds legitimacy to these often neglected genres.
I just put "is dio still alive" in google. sad times.
I love how the kid is nailing Jack Black as a kid! I totally believe that it's him!
I've seen this movie in cinema and I am STILL marveling over how they found a kid that was SO much like Jack Black in every regard....
Casting involved waiting outside Dunkin Donuts after school.
Yeah I thought that aswell young lad embodied the part perfectly.
That kid is now in a programme called the Goldbergs.
He also played the younger version of Jack's character in Nacho Libre.
That’s my boy Troy Gentile!
Fun fact after Dio nailed his verse in the first take. He immediately ask if he could go again, he lived the flow of the lyrics. He got so sad when he was told no. There's a video of it.
I just wanted to write this fun fact right now. :) Here's archive video from it: ruclips.net/video/G4YgA0mSF0Q/видео.html
God, I miss Ronnie.
@@BuriTechVids YES! This was exactly what I was referring to. It looks like there's actually one of the technicians that faints to the awesomeness of Dio's powerful voice.
@@AJEDDY97 And Meatload who joined him recently :(
If I was the producer I’d say Ronnie you can sing it a thousand times and I’ll be sitting here with my ears blown away please do
Came here for the Dio part. Wasn't disappointed. His voice is something we won't see for a long time. RIP holy diver
It's a fun story based on a real band and its members. I JUST LOVE how Tenacious D can tell a story like no other
100% real true events.
We need to take a moment to appreciate how awesome the kid was at acting exactly like Jack Black.
Oscar wothy if you ask me.
...in total the very perfect vid! Dio ist the orgazm!
The movie is great. It reminds me of when my daughter was 4-8 years old. We’d watch it dozens of time, and sing every song in the movie together. She’s 18 now and when she was looking at colleges I get a random photo because she passed through the town of Kickapooo. And we’ll send each other “Dude I Totally Miss You” still to this day. It was such and incredible daddy/daughter bonding moment that has stuck with us through the ages.
Wow thats incredible cute
great parenting
I love this!! Bonding is key, whatever it is based on!! You‘re a great dad!
TIL Kickapoo isn’t just a stupid name they invented for the movie
My dad watched this movie with me all the time when I was really young and we would both listen to "Dude I Totally Miss You" while he was overseas. Of course my mom never let me have the songs on my mp3 player though lol
👏👏👏
This is how vocal reviews should be.
I had so much fun seeing you react to this and break it down in a way that wasn’t boring.
Love your vibe, love your personality, you’ve gained a follower.
The fun you're having with this one is awesome!!! The smile on your face, your laugh that kicks ass!! What an awesome reaction!! One of THE best reaction videos I've ever seen for your sheer naturalness & keeping it real & hell yeah, SABBATH RULE!!!! The joy you so obviously had doing this is our joy to watch. Thank you for sharing!
When I saw Tenacious D live, they played a solid 2.5 hours or so straight through (Both the first album and the Pick of Destiny in their entirety), and his voice didn't start to show any strain until the very last song. It was honestly an absolutely phenomenal show.
Because nothing he does is hard. Lmao. Notice vocalists who sing hard stuff sometimes have a hard time. It’s almost like there a correlation. Mind blowing.
@@bradcallahan3546 Nothing he does is hard? Please tell me you’re joking. If it’s not hard, I’d like to see you replicate his voice and a straight 2.5 hour performance since you make it sound so easy :)
@@DeadweightAnbu for people like Dio or jack or meat loaf who have raw talent it's not hard is what he is saying. It's as easy as breathing or walking for them. It may have been hard at some point when they started but this late in Thier career it's like breathing to them.
@@bradcallahan3546 found the contrarian
@@bradcallahan3546 also notice passive aggressive idiots who post their sad, angry bullshit all over the internet seem to have a hard time sometimes too. correlations abound. its almost like the correlations have correlations. wonder if theres any way we can use this information...
Theres a video of Dio singing those lines in the studio, and folks are dropping their jaws when he nails the part in one magnificent take.
m.ruclips.net/video/G4YgA0mSF0Q/видео.html&feature=emb_logo
This one... fantastic!
That was so sick 🤟
I grew up in the 80's with Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Meatloaf, Dio, Van Halen, White Snake, Slayer, etc. Rock/Heavy Metal was considered devil's music, which is probably what appealed to me during my rebellion years. But man did I fall in love with it. So many classics that bring back memories and emotions.
Wow, you are so fun to watch. You make my cold heart warm again with your genuine love of music and tenacious d! You're awesome! The channel name is right on point.
One of my fav parts of this movie is how hard the kid they cast as young Jack NAILED IT. The facial expressions are golden.
Totally agree, he makes the song so much better. Fun fact: he's also young Jack Black in Nacho Libre!
The kid is also the older brother in The Goldbergs
@@abel-paulbonin3312 good ol Big Tasty
As a Russian teenager back in 2008 I stumbled upon this movie, it was fully in English, and I couldn't understand anything, but music just kept me thrilled, later I started translating all of the songs, and now I can freely speak. My grammar is still bad, but hey, I did my my best, Tenacious D is one of my favorite bands, you should Definitely see the movie. RUclips algorithm finally showed me something good subbing and ringing a 🔔
Your grammar isn't bad at all. Очень хорошо мой друг! Моя русская грамматика очень плохо хахаха
@@squatcurldeadlift7346 :D
Your grammar seems fine to me. I understood everything you said. 😄 I wish I could read Russian language and letters/characters
@@ext93 auto correction dose it's job, the hardest part is to learn pronunciations of our alphabet 🔤, but you can try doing the same stuff I did, finder some Russian band start memorizing and repeating lyrics, you can also find lots of courses online, it really easy this days ^_^
@@molodecrus the hardest part for me is Russian cases, especially in adjectives and numbers. They drive me nuts lol
Your positivity and joy when analysing all these awesome bands I grew up with like Tenacious D, SOAD, Iron Maiden, Metallica etc is so contagious. You are by far one of my favourite channels to watch!
I grew up with Ronnie James Dio through my dad, he was almost my first concert ever. He is and always be my favourite singer, especially being a smaller guy myself like Dio it gives me hope that even tho I might be small, my voice can have great impact.
Rest In Peace Ronnie James Dio
I get chills everytime I watch the part where Dio goes “now go my son and rock!!!!!”
That part was magical and rad.
I always want him to be taking directly to me. I love my actual father to death, but Dio is my metal soul daddy.
Dio has rocked for a long, long time,
Now it's time for him to pass the torch...
If anyone didn't know, Dio literally walked into the studio, did one single take, and Jack Black was like, that's actually perfect. And that's what we're hearing lol
@@drewhanna28 nahh its a true fact. the story is he walked in, barely tried to do his thing and the mic was quickly blown out, then he used the mic he brought from home to do the one and only recording
Literally? He literally walked?
I love your videos so much ❤ I've rewatched this one countless times and will continue to do so for as long as my memory holds out. Thank you so much.
Dio’s Voice still give me the chills, so powerful voice
The vibrato in RJD’s voice when he sings “Hollywood” is simply outstanding. The master; RIP 🤘
Go my son and roccccccccccccccckkkk!!! 🤟
There's a behind the scenes video where you can see him nail it in the first take
@@chimpaflimp Yeah and he is kinda bummed about it because he wanted to do more than just that one take. Such a legend.
@@chimpaflimp Yeah and JB is standing there completly speechlees, such an awesome clip
Jack Black is a pretty under-rated singer. Everybody thinks he's just funny, but he actually has an awesome voice too!
Who underrates Jack Black? Has anyone knocked his singing?
@@azimuth361 Exactly. It's not that he's under-rated. More so under-appreciated is all.
Even his guitar playing is amazing
Both Meatloaf and Dio’s entrances are so amazing. Just, perfect!
One of my favorite vids you have one, great description, and analogy, love these two , together, thank you for making my night
This whole movie is a blast. I'd highly recommend checking out the whole thing, it's such a blast. RIP DIO, RIP Meat Loaf
Master Exploder 🤘
@@jmathieson15 hell yeah! And Beelzeboss \m/
I hadn’t realized Meat Loaf died until I read this.. RIP.
"But to learn the ancient method, sacred doors you most unlock." Yes, a rock/metal singer can learn a lot from Dio, and Dio learned from greats like Enrico Caruso, Mario Lanza, and Ray Charles.
I love you and your enthusiasm. Thank you for the videos!
Just found your channel and it really is magical and rad, now I have hours of content to enjoy, thank you!
Fun fact: The bat Meatloaf knocks down is from his “Bat Out of Hell” Album
Because they originally had a meatloaf bat out of hell poster for him to rip down but he wouldn't so the bat was a compromise.
First, Jack Black is severely underrated. Second, that little boy is killing it, he's funny and looks just like I imagine Jack Black would. Finally, RIP Meatloaf. 🌹
Elisabeth, I found your channel by accident while searching the Aurora materials after her last clip... and I drowned in your reaction videos. The way you react is so natural, cute, and full of charm I could mute the sound and watch your reactions hour after hour after hour... your comments about all the songs you put here - are pure gold too
I've watched a few of you'r videos so far and i can say confidently that u have a new fan in me and a huge one for ❤️ keep up the great work 🙏🏾
Toward the end of Dio's verse, when he sings "You will face your inner demons" a flash of Murray's eyes appears behind him. Murray is the demon-mascot for Dio's band that appeared on several of his album covers.
RIP Meat Loaf. I recall one interview I saw of his where he was talking about auditioning for Rocky Horror. They told him that the song is really fast so just try to get all the words in as best you can; everybody else had just been sliding the lyrics together in audition. Meat listens to it and says to himself Well I can do this! Then he sings it clear as day like it was nothing and gets the part.
Hot patootie- bless his soul, he really loved his rock& roll!
and he's also throwing up horns, in the gesture that he popularized \m/
My voice isn't as grand as Meat Loaf's, but I can sing "Whatever Happened to Saturday Night" a bit faster than he could. Not bragging. Just thought I'd mention it.
Dio already had Stomach Cancer at this time. Yet his voice never weakened. He loved doing what he did so much, that he toured while incredibly ill with stomach cancer. Dio's Passion is something that couldn't be weighed.
absolutely love Tenacious D and absolutely love your analysis of this song! awesome!!
You are amazing. I get lost in your videos. The pure level of love for the craft is amazing
Dio singing "in the city of fallen angles, where the ocean meets the sand" is perfectly engraved into my brain haha it's so great!
I know right, absolute classic line
you will form a STRAWNG ALLIANCE, and the world's most AWESOME BAND!
Straight up man, It's so powerful.
That kid deserves an actual Award for beeing a literal tiny JB.... great Job little man
I stumbled across your channel today. It is so positive and fun to watch your videos. Awesome stuff!
Seeing the love and passion you have for music in your expressions is amazing. A lot of respect. You love music, I'm on your side. I respect your opinions, a coach or not, accurate. In the party zone, keep it real! And keep on!
Not only does this song have 3 amazing singers, Tenacious D also has one of the world's greatest studio drummers. Dave Grohl has done all drums on their studio recordings!
4 amazing singers. Dave Grohl is the Devil in Beelzeboss.
You have no idea how happy this makes me. Jack Black is my absolute hero. Not to mention Meafload and Dio, themselves being absolute legends on their own. Please do more Tenacious D. I think you'll find a lot of merit within the silliness. Jack Black is an excellent vocalist and I highly, HIGHLY recommend checking out his vocal work in his feature film Bernie (which I also believe it to be his best onscreen performance). He's not just a funny guy. He's VERY talented. Also School of Rock.
Meafload?....
*Meatloaf .....
@@Terminxman Meafload makes me feel weird
😂😂😂
@@66bub 🤣🤣
Love the "hi Dio" when the door is slammed
Dio and Meatloaf STILL sound amazing! Jack always sounds incredible. Love Tenacious D!! This was my favorite reaction video of yours so far! Even better than "Tribute" and I didn't think one could top that. 🤘🏻🤘🏻❤❤
The part where RJD throws the Goblet makes me laugh every time. RIP Ronnie and Meat
OMG! I never noticed that, I was just paying attention to his face!!
I just noticed here (after 16 years of listening to this amazing song) that you can actually hear it crashing on the ground lol
Also when he sings "In the city of fallen angels..." the angels that fall in the background are the same ones from the cover of the "Heaven and Hell" Black Sabbath album
Yep, they even added a "clang" sound, lol
DIO HAS ROCKED FOR A LONG LONG TIME
BUT NOW IT'S TIME TO PASS THE TORCH
RIP Meat Loaf what an awesome singer and artist
And Dio
RIP Ronnie James Dio. You were once in a lifetime amazing.
God i love watching your videos.... I can sing every word of this song and Tenacious D has been one of my favorites for YEARS, but because I know nothing about singing (just music in general, I play drums lol) I learn SO MUCH watching you even if it's a song I've listened to literally 1000 times... Like I have enough music knowledge to understand everything you're saying and it's ALL new info
In a former D&D campaign, my character was a Metal bard, or as they called themselfs "Iron Wailers".
He was called Ronnie Osborn, and he was from the town of Ditchapoo, from a family of Clerics, but he saw a vision of Wootan(Odin's other name) that told him that he had to go and find the Pick of destiny, if he wanted to escapes his family's religious clutch.
6lvl of Lore bard and 3 levels of Infernal Warlock with a Imp familliar named "Kyle".
You're doing Metal's work, son.
/salute
ahhh your happiness and good vibes are infectious!! this song (and movie) is an all time classic for me, so seeing someone react in this kinda way cheers me up to no end!!
great video, n love the insights and appreciation you have for it!
;>
I saw them last September. JB and KG were amazing! They're just as good live as they are on recording. Loved it
Just saw Elizabeth sing opera for the fist time. Not my kind of music but have to say really impressive. I had no idea.
Thank you!
@@TheCharismaticVoice This movie is highly The Who's Opera Rock influencied, such that it's got many references on them. It plays "Won't get fooled again" at its climax. Roger Daltrey is great singer to be analysed as well.
I agree, Elizabeth is awesome! I started really appreciating Opera more once I got into old Nightwish years ago, and so many metal singers(especially female) mention how influenced they are by Opera..........
For the “rock is not the devil’s work” line. When it comes to metal or rock music generally I think it’s that situation where people confuse subject matter for message. Lots of classic metal is about evil or references the devil or drugs. People assume therefore - partly because of the clothes, partly the marketing push from record labels as bands got big - that they are glorifying the these things. But most of the time lyrically it’s an expression of truth, it’s about how other people will pay for their true evil deeds (like War Pigs) or how drugs are destructive (Master of Puppets). A song being about something doesn’t mean it’s praising it.
Unless it's gangsta rap....
@@rodrigoodonsalcedocisneros9266 Even then, some Gangster Rap talks about the issues with being a so called Gangster, the pressure and such. A lot of them rap about money and girls, but not all.
@ J J Yes, like Iron Maiden's Number Of The Beast
To be fair, there are certainly Satanic bands and even whole genres kind of devoted to the defamation of Christ. Some of it is for shock value, some of it is legitimately "devil worshipping" music, by definition. It doesn't make the music necessarily good or evil, as that depends on perspective. I tend to identify as an atheist, so the idea of worshipping a god seems like fantasy to me and the idea of worshipping Satan is even sillier, so the association with music and the devil doesn't really bother me...
@@rodrigoodonsalcedocisneros9266 Gangsta Rap is not just praising gangster life. Sometimes they rap about how cops discriminated them just because they were black, about politicians who ignored minorities while pandering to white people and about the realities of lower class life. Sometimes Gangsta Rap can also be positive like Will Smith rapping against drug use and Tupac rapping about personal tragedies and warning his fans to not do the same mistakes.
I absolutely love seeing you react to this. Watched this as a young teen and fell in love with the style of this movie. Only musical I can say I watched at least 10 times haha. The soundtrack is amazing on it.
Meatloaf's enunciation is perfect in all of his songs.
Can we take a moment to appreciate the awesome acting of Troy Gentle, the (then) child actor playing young Jack Black.
He can always admit to playing with three legends.
Oh shit, it’s Barry!
i actually personally thought the kid detracted from it... his face is doing too much and doesn't lip synch well. Love the D and this is probably my favorite D song, but not a fan of the kids acting.
@@fingfangfoom2399 I'm pretty sure he tried to do the typical Jack Black faces and I believe he had to sing with different lyrics without swear words. It's okay if you don't like the kid's acting but that doesn't mean he was bad at it. He had confidence, he had talent, what he lacked was 20 years of experience.
@@starlighter930617 I didn't say he was bad at it, they certainly picked the perfect kid for looking like a young jaybulls, but... the synching was definitely off and the mannerisms didn't match the words, intent or emotions in several spots and frankly, kid or not, that just breaks the suspension of disbelief which detracts from the overall effort. It's a small gripe... I love PIck of Destiny, I love Kickapoo, I love Tenacious D... and the kid added many great things to it as well... but i wouldn't characterize the acting as "great" as the OP said, even for that age. I know i can't be the only one who felt many of the moments with the kid felt disjointed and amateurish.
I'm not slamming the (then) kid, he didn't ruin the video... but the OP asked us to take a moment to appreciate the "great" acting of the kid as if it was the highlight of the entire video. In my honest opinion he was the lowlight, even if the lowlight was still pretty entertaining... the highlight is CLEARLY Dio.
Just stumbled on this. I love your energy so much!!
You rules!!! i love the way you reveals the magic behind the music! Greats from Argentina.
This reaction was so much fun to watch! I love your giddiness in music appreciation :)
Wait, this isn't 7d2d lol
