Man, imagine falling asleep on the couch and then waking up to seeing this sight on your TV. Glad to see the band finally getting the recognition they deserve!
@@TheLongwei so listening to it again I can hear what your talking about. But I'm pretty sure one of the Gould has breast. Honestly though I cant tell, someone else wanna chime in. 🧐
@@P3nguin79 When i study the gouls on a second viewing I'll have to agree with you that the one to the right has breasts, and you can hear her voice in the singing if you listen very closely, but still I'm hearing a male falsetto (with maybe a female layer in there to give it more of a body to the vocals.)
@@TheLongwei yeah there is. I had to put my good headphones on and you can hear that the female is actually backup for the falsetto. It's the keyboard player. If you look at 2:13 he's shown for a quick second and if you watch the guitar player I think he's singing the baritone part. That means it has to be the keyboard player singing "call me".
Pretty sure Tobias sets all the guitar tones, as he plays all the instruments in pre-production. That sound carries over into the live shows. Touring bassist is Cos Sylvan.
I'm pretty sure, most studio material is done by Tobias himself isn't it? The 'Ghoulettes' are only there for Live performances. Here is hoping we one day get a LIVE album.
I’ve tried many times but I just can’t get into it…I find it boring; the guitar is boring, the drums are boring and the vocals are boring…I just feel like this is time wasted not listening to Iron Maiden.
I’m 70 years old. (mentally 19). This type of music has always held my interest. It’s been a very long time since I’ve heard this above- board music. These guys should be world- wide top of the line advertised musicians. This is the type of music that’s good enough to be repeated in your mind over and over. Not enough words to describe my admiration.
@@shillrickvanhussler767 Cause we are not popular (useful) at the age. Most of us put dollars into social security…. We don’t work anymore…. And we’ve learned how we’re getting played by Dems. Another words, we’re dangerous to the current libs ( who I think ,because of their asinine antics, keep my thinking youthful, like I want a good future). Energetic, well made music from Ghost… is a big help. Back to Ghost….albums are all great. Every song can hook you.
I just saw another video about the band and other than the singer who writes and plays guitar etc on the albums the albums have different players than when they are live.
Just discovered this band a few weeks ago, been going through their discography and I gotta say, not a single weak song. All killer, no filler. So happy to discover them just as they release new material. I'm overwhelmed by their great music.
hell yeah, each album is a premium work of art, Forge is next level with how he twists his song writing and the live show experience together. You gotta see them live if you haven't yet!
I was keeping my fingers crossed that they would perform a song in the studio in front of the audience, shake hands with Jimmy, all of that stuff. But nevertheless, a great performance of a fine song, and another excellent opportunity for Ghost to reach new audience.
Usually the bands performing do it on a small outdoor stage (100 people). I saw Rammstein at a Jimmy Kimmel performance back in 2011. Its filmed early in the day (7ish), and they play about 4 songs. Only one is aired. This clearly done a little different since it was performed from the Mountain View mausoleum. I’m sure it was Ghost that selected the location (to make it a little special). The Jimmy Kimmel Show would not spent the money needed for this small masterpiece. The lighting, location, etc are wonderful
Mountain View Mausoleum - a few miles from my house. So cool to finally know this location! It was a perfect setting since they couldn't be on site in Hollywood. The sound and lighting - incredible!
I think it might have been originally planned to be like that. Their performance on Jimmy Kimmel was orginally scheduled for a day in January, shortly before the tour started, but had to be postponed. At that time the group had already been gathered together for the upcoming tour. With that date now, the tour is over, and they are probably all home taking a break and summoning all the musicians back would probably have been quite the hassle, so they did this instead. I am pretty sure this performance was shot along with the Impera release party.
True words. I had no clue who they were outside of the few times I was shown their music and it didnt really hit then...Saw them a couple mounths ago with Amon Amarth...instantly changed my perspective and immediately became a fan.
It's weird, isn't it? I have heard Tobias complain that he cannot do live what he does in the studio, because of the mask. This was a crisp as.. well, a crisp.
@@irrelevantgems5736 not at all, is surely is a good performer but Netwon, Enistein, Socrate, Tesla, were geniuses. Curb your enthusiasm, you're not born to follow
I just discovered Ghost about 2 weeks ago as a “recommendation” from RUclips. Been hooked ever since! Cant believe Ive never heard their stuff before. Whatever they call their fans, Im now one of them!
Wow, i like this version even more than the studio one, i think it sounds amazing with the female backing vocals. Great scenery and lighting as well, i love it
The backing ghouls and ghoulettes really make the chorus fantastic. BTW: It's even better live- Saw them just over 3 weeks ago at the end of their tour. Literally the best concert I've ever been to.
I actually got this as an mp3 for exactly that reason. I love the song and love the album version....but the female backing vocals just add so damn much to it and you can barely hear that part on the album.
lets all talk about how this is the 1st time papa has ever performed with his mitre on (mitre as in the pope hat the papas use) since the day he got promoted to papa!!!! i hope they start using it when they start touring the album so weird seeing him with the weird mickeymouse ears lol
This is one of my favorite performances of Ghost! The vocals are immaculate and especially Swiss (3:12 I mean...I don't think I need to say more) and the Ghoulettes in the back are perfection!
@@erkjan lol he is called swiss by the fans because he is the Swiss Army Ghoul. ( he does guitar, backing vocal, percussion ( like tambourine) and has even dressed as one of the papa's to play sax )
@@erkjan Swiss is the name of one of the ghouls. Idk if you know much about the band but if not, ghouls are the people who are playing the instruments and doing backup vocals. They technically don't have names, but they have fan names (like Swiss) that include the ghouls (male) Swiss, Aether, Mountain, Sodo/Dewdrop, and Rain and the ghoulettes (female) Cumulus, Cirrus, and Sunshine! Sorry for the little rant, I absolutely live for this band.
The backup vocalists really add to the song, it sounds so haunting and reminiscent of a church choir. I also really like that Tobias seems to be putting a Southern drawl into the performance, it's a really fun detail added to the atmosphere
@@whogavehimafork Absolutely! The lyrics and performances itself are great commentary, but even just the music/choir evoking the sound of gospel is so great. I've checked out the rest of Ghost's discography since I made my comment and I've had a blast
@Allison Kaiser If you ask me, it’s not a matter of selling out. First of all, Ghost is from Sweden, the land of ABBA, so he has respect for them (he has covered them) and their kind of music. Second, he also wanted to pay homage to 80s hair metal on this latest album, and for better or worse, that music was more mainstream. But it’s still beloved by many, including Gorge, and isn’t making what he wants the most important? Last but not least, I think Forge wants to make his music insidious, accessible to the innocent masses yet filled with subliminal messages of the insidious occult.
@@sylph8005 The 5 songwriters Tobias hired for this LP write for Madonna, Gaga, The Weeknd, Ariana Grande, Elli Goulding, One Direction, Sugababes, Jordin Sparks, Kesha, K Minogue, Britney & Katy Perry. This is a carefully crafted LP with some serious industry cash behind it to ensure it makes its money back.
Tobias has such a great voice on the records, but I love it even more without the studio polish. It sounds so real, so human, not perfect but authentic.
I also noticed that each album except the new one and Prequelle the vocals either sound slightly different or mixed in a way to where they sound different. I think it’s to give each of the Papas their own unique voices in the songs, it’s such a small thing but I love that Tobias thought of that, either that or that’s just unintentional and the sounds and styles of each album give off that illusion. Still cool either way.
@@wildcatjs1570 I think its clearly intentional. It really does feel a certain papa is singing a certain song. Especially this album, I can certianly hear Papa IV singing tweinties lmao
The records are amazing but they really shine live. It's so well arranged and everyone nails their parts. That's the key. Park your ego at the door and just perform the music. Everything falls into place from there because it's so well written.
I think Ghost is one of those bands that almost everyone likes when they hear them. Ive never heard someone whos heard them say they didnt like them lmao
Guess I am first the one. There seems to be a mismatch between the voice and lyrics. I think these songs would be better if someone else sang them. However, great lyrics! Also the persona of the band members doesn't match the music. I read about the bands organization like papa emeritus and cardinal copia and seems to be more appropriate for something that a death metal band would hatch. 😂
Not really, if some one are hardcore and True God's follower , I think their cool and catchy songs won't have any effects to them, but for me their songs are lit 🔥, but Mephistopheles aren't cool 😂
@@karakol86 the lead singer of ghost was in a metal band too! Check out hungry are the damned by repugnant. He does the vocals on that song and sounds completely different. His range is amazing really
So glad this band is finally getting the recogintion they deserve. It's been a long journey Ghost Fans! To the old timers we were always here, to the new blood Welcome!
He is ALWAYS better live. So powerful live. I feel something is always lost in the studio recordings. I just want to listen to these live performances only.
Usually, the studio version of any song is when the song is in its infancy. Once a band begins to tour in support of its release, the band can really dial the song in. Especially all those little things that get masked in the recording. GHOST is definitely one of those bands that is better LIVE.
You know, my obsession with this band didn't start in a healthy place to begin with and has gotten more and more outta control recently. This performance gave me goosebumps!!
Everything about this band gives me chills, especially the way Papa moves... those little quirks with the head and hands while he's singing about something devilish, drive me crazy! In a good way :)
@@h0b0_on3 yeah, does it really matter? Lol 50 people at the time of this reply doesn't think so and I'm sure a lot more people will like this comment before this time tomorrow
I play this song everyday! I'm a musician, I've played guitar for 20 years and I've heard some amazing riffs, from amazing bands. But this song's has got such grooves, and tightness I've no heard anything like it in years. This is one of the best songs I've heard in a long time!
The release of "Impera" is so bizzare: A Ghost-branded Stock Car in the Xfinity series race, a live performance on ABC... it is just so wild to see this super-niche band I enjoyed 9 years-or-so ago enjoying what seems to be mainstream levels of success. Doesn't hurt that, as an album, "Impera" is probably the most bang for your buck Ghost album to date.
Completely agree. I personally see a lot of glam rock influence in IMPERA (especially in Spillways, where the chorus reminds me a lot of Poison by Alice Cooper), so the super catchy riffs make it super accessible to newcomers. And then, if they actually looks at the lyrics, they can find a lot of depth and seriousness in them, which can suck them in even more. Not a single bad song in it.
Yes they're great live. I've seen them twice in concert. First at 98Rockfest in Tampa a few years ago then at their own concert in Clearwater. Absolutely great band. I love his vocals.
Yeah, it's even more awesome when you realize it's not a love song, or at least a traditional love song...more like a ploy by a clergyman to feign love towards their supporters in order to gain power and control over them...like they do. Lol Made it even more awesome when I found that out! Beautiful song about some pretty f#$ked up content...
This song is ‘sick’ as my kids would say. It has got it all. Ashamed to have only discovered Ghost a few months ago but have loved going back through the back catalogue and looking forward to seeing them in Manchester next month! Mary on a Cross, Square Hammer, He Is etc etc and now a whole new album. I’ll be like a kid in a sweet shop at the gig
@@abcdefghijkl5408 They are exactly what they set out to do. Yeah, it's more eighties instead of 70s. but still, the song writing is on point. And they where cheese from the first album on. This album may be their second best, after Meliora to me.
Darkness at the heart of my love might be the only song I don't like in their entire discography. Still one of my favorite bands ever. Got a Nameless ghoul tattoo on my arm.
@@chesco93 the songs kind of ok, the lyrics just seem cringe. I like the album though, although it feels like it's missing the unique ghost flavour for some reason.
@@chesco93 really? I respect your opinion of course, but when you get down to what the song is really about...ie: not a love song by any means...it seemed to hit me different and then I enjoyed it more...just my opinion though, Ghost is so awesome btw!
I’ve loved rock/metal/whatever you wanna call it my entire life (I’m 34.) I’ve always known of Ghost but never dug too deep into them. The last few days I’ve traveled down the RUclips rabbit hole and I think they are extremely talented. With that being said, I don’t think I’ve found a more positive fan base for any artist. They’re soo passionate about the band and welcome newcomers with open arms. Such a breath of fresh air in the current world we live in. 🙌🏻🤘🏻
I remember being a little ghoul getting excited for them on Colbert.. it's been a long time! This should be the new music video for Little Sunshine.. it's sooo good!!!! If you have Ghost, you have EVERYTHING!
A "little ghoul" 😁🤗👻 I love it , it made me 😄! Hell Yes, the stage setting is Gorgeous!! When it started, I thought this Was a video, too. The Backdrop, background, whatever it's called (I'm sorry for a "whatever"), is A-Mazing, UNBelievably Stunning! They would be so killer to experiencelive!!! 🤘👍 Happy St Patrick's Day 🍀 Good health & Peace to you & yours. 👻
WOW...kudos for Jimmy having on a REAL BAND and letting them use their stage set. Now if only people truly understood this song....OMG Ghost on mainstream tv with their setup....maybe we just are in the "end times." Speechless this happened.
@@gorbag283 Yeah, people seem to forget they already performed on prime time TV. The new album is more commercial though, so it’s getting more recognition.
Dude I was speechless when I saw that their record had an exclusive offering at Target!! So used to having to place orders at places like Revolver for this kind of material
@@noahmijo Did Target version offer more tracks? I am a lifer metalhead but I never got into them..first album I have is okay but for some reason I dig the new tune but I don't want to buy the cd and then someone say a specific store had a version with bonus tracks? A little help? Also for me check out two bands BURNING WITHCES AND NERVOSA think you will love them both
That microphone is so loud, the lead vocal is completely exposed and yet he has so much control to absolutely nail every syllable. Phenomenal performance!
The whole CD is a masterpiece. This is the CD we need during these times. I have not stopped listening to it, whistling or humming the songs...to the point that my wife is getting annoyed. I playfully looked at her and said "call me..."
Yeah I love Call Me but I feel like if I wasn't already a fan, hearing it live wouldn't make me want to listen to more of their stuff. Great performance but I probably would have picked another song myself
I know I was kind of hoping they’d play Spillways or even Kaisarion. Call me is a great song but a little out there for most people. Something more upbeat and rocking would have been perfect for this
They just keep getting bigger and it's well deserved! They're amazing live, their new album is fantastic, and they never disappoint. Rock and roll, music in general, needs Ghost. We all need Ghost! Can't wait to see what's next.
This song is crazy good. Ghost is one of the best bands of this era for sure, not only they sound awesome, the attitude of the ghouls is also very well crafted.
These guys are insanely talented and Tobias just oozes charisma. Simply amazing! So glad I stumbled upon this video a while back. I've been obsessed ever since!
@@svartsjokolade I'm having that same reaction to this song. I watched this on TV on Kimmel when it happened and then watched it here on RUclips a few dozen times. I finally downloaded the album and the album version is good but I really miss those Ghoulette vocals!
@@JasonCGuitarOfficial none of the band played on the record, but nice try there. There are three females in the band, and none are the bass player. The bassist is Cosmo Sylvan, who is a guy.
Don't let the costumes fool you this band is bringing metal back and I'm so proud to have been following them for like 5 years really hits home when you see a band excel
Honestly if u told me back in 2011 when I was jamming to opus eponymous that they would b on a late night talk show I probably would of laughed. Crazy.
I literally just started listening to Ghost and found this in my search for videos to watch. This song is what pulled me in. MASSIVE hook. Really awesome song. Glad to be a new Ghost fan.
This performance was great! I LOVE the new album n this is one of my fave songs from it. But NOTHING beats witnessing them live! I've been lucky enough to catch them twice so far n I was amazed both times. Tobias is simply brilliant with his craft, u can definitely tell he was made for this! 🤘
The vocals here were so good I couldn't believe it and I have had years of live performances. I never had crisp pitch perfect signing like this. Respect
@Chris Eller it's supposed to AreTard. If you'd follow the song, the meaning, the story behind the music you'd see the art but people with low brain cell count are incapable of seeing art. Never go to a Oprah AreTard.
Got to see them play live in Milwaukee and I don’t think I’ve ever seen musicianship to that degree in any capacity before. It was mind blowing. Ghost is absolutely incredible
Papa Emeritus IV has assembled a top notch group of live musicians.The Ghoulettes and Multi Ghoul take an already great vocal to the next level with their voices.
I dunno, Respite on the Spitalfields has a recognizable Ghost sound to it and a few others in my opinion...but, if bands constantly sounded the same that would be very boring, so I myself welcome new and different.
@@jrawk4140 Oh I absolutely agree with you! I love bands that progress their sound as they develop. If these guys stood still they’d still be aping Merciful Fate a la Opus Eponymous. 😉 I was simply pointing out that this one one of the few tunes with that “old familiarity”… the new stuff is wicked fun too! But I got hip to them when Infestissumam came out and that record holds a trusted place in my heart though after a recent going back to it? I am happy they developed from there!
Much as I love Ghost, I found this song disappointing when it was first released....but within the context of the album and with this killer performance, its now become one of my fave tracks on IMPERA!
This is great. Band is brimming with talent to match their presence. Sounds very eighties which means, great musicianship, guitar, theater, everything that the world needs.
To those who say he lip-syncs he has a mask and always has been wearing one The purpose is to hide his identity and to have a chilling feel of calmness while singing as if he himself is a ghoul
@@EmpyreanLightASMR it’s not a prosthetic. It’s an actual mask. When he started Ghost, his wife found a mask for the first album Opus Eponymous. Then found another, and another. Essentially it gives off the illusion that there’s a new “papa emeritus” character for every album. Except for the 4th album which had Cardinal Copia who was canonized as papa emeritus IV for this new album
I guess they did the video a couple of weeks ago after the tour concluded. Their European tour starts in less than a month and they probably wanted to get home first.
I'm 64 years old, but would love to see this band in concert! I like the sound of their music, not to mention the theatrical style in this tv appearance!!!
Man, imagine falling asleep on the couch and then waking up to seeing this sight on your TV. Glad to see the band finally getting the recognition they deserve!
Wack
It reminds me of The Corpse Bride the movie by Tim Burton & the band gives me Halloween vibes & I love it .
@toyfactory I mean they won a Grammy but I agree that they’re very underrated
Love this comment, twas meant to be! 🔥🖤🔥🤘
Just some old Christian woman that leaves channel 6 on for the news in the am 😂
The female backing vocals really make this performance stand out. Absolutely killer.
Hell ya it does. When I heard the female vocalist I smiled a bit. "It seems this is not your final form." 😂
Sounds more like male falsetto to me

It's sad that a lot of people don't appreciate this music, and they will never know how incredible this band is.
I couldn't agree more
They are simply amazing, pretty much incomparable
Nobody can say that was not badass without being a lyer
I’ve tried many times but I just can’t get into it…I find it boring; the guitar is boring, the drums are boring and the vocals are boring…I just feel like this is time wasted not listening to Iron Maiden.
@@ryangregohara bummer.
I wish the female backup vocals sounded like this on the album version. Goddamn it sounds amazing.
right , I don't think the backup can be done the same ,live . There's a lot of post processing on them.
I kinda like it Because when you go to a show you’re expecting something better and more grand than what you get thru your phone or sterio
Those female backup vocals sealed it for me!
Right? The female live vocals are really cool
I like the effects in studio, but Ghost has always been great live also.

There is only one Papa!
Same here, 9 years.
same here! became a fan back in 2013
Same! Have been fan for ten years. It’s crazy how fast the time has passed!!! And to see them grow 🥺
Ghost is more than a band, Ghost is an experience. If you have the chance to see them live, do it.
Saw them in Berlin in June, unforgettable experience
Seem them a couple times, met Tobias once. awesome live show. I have tickets in the pit for this Sunday.
They are great live
i was them and i cried, it was so beautiful, they were so close to me
True words. I had no clue who they were outside of the few times I was shown their music and it didnt really hit then...Saw them a couple mounths ago with Amon Amarth...instantly changed my perspective and immediately became a fan.
His voice in this performance is so much better than the album! So much more crisp, clear, raw and true.
It's brilliant! What a professional
It's weird, isn't it? I have heard Tobias complain that he cannot do live what he does in the studio, because of the mask. This was a crisp as.. well, a crisp.
I love the female voices in the refrain
Cause this is lip sync
The album version is better. Nasally here
I love how the singer moves. It’s so little but it’s also so much and it’s very enrapturing
He's got extraordinary charisma. Even with a mask covering his facial expressions and minimal body movement he's absolutely mesmerizing.

Listen to every album. I'm 60 years old and they are so good.
Few bands perform this well live. Extremely talented musicians, all of them!
Agreed, but this wasn’t live. It was prerecorded and mastered.
This isn’t live
If you have ghost, you have everything.
correct.
correct!
You can say anything you want, you can do anything you wanna do
Just ask Roky!
Elmo went to prison for very bad touchy!!! 👎😒
Wow, i like this version even more than the studio one, i think it sounds amazing with the female backing vocals. Great scenery and lighting as well, i love it
One thing that is great about metal is that it is better live.
They play it full length with the female backing during their live shows too. Its awesome
The backing ghouls and ghoulettes really make the chorus fantastic.
BTW: It's even better live- Saw them just over 3 weeks ago at the end of their tour.
Literally the best concert I've ever been to.
Oh my. Hats off for the one who made Tobias' costume, really. 🖤✨ The details! And I love how Tobias carries himself with it.
I believe that he now has the same stylist as Lady Gaga!!
Calling them Tobias only makes you look like a prick
Agreed 110%!! That is simply a beautiful costume, and the detail is amazing!!! It must have been a labor of love for the creator!
Yeah this costume kicks bottom
I can’t stop listening to this. The extra background vocals just make it even better.
100% true
I actually got this as an mp3 for exactly that reason. I love the song and love the album version....but the female backing vocals just add so damn much to it and you can barely hear that part on the album.
I love everything in this video, the backing vocals, his voice, his costume, his gestures… I’m in love hahhehae
I wish though they'd turn Swiss's sound up a bit.
Same!
lets all talk about how this is the 1st time papa has ever performed with his mitre on (mitre as in the pope hat the papas use) since the day he got promoted to papa!!!! i hope they start using it when they start touring the album so weird seeing him with the weird mickeymouse ears lol
Saaaame!
He wears this blue mitre on the cover for the European Tour. I can’t wait to see the band in Paris next month.
The others also played with pope attire for the first like 3 or 4 songs of the set. Then he got changed into the more mobile attire
So in the Lore™️, this isCardinal Copia who was elevated to Papa?
Yes
Love how the "call me" telephone gesture fits into Papa's normal mannerisms.
Exactly, like: "Hello? Mephistopheles? You have a minute? We need to talk...."
I literally had this very same thought!
@@emtbasics I love this 🤣
I thought, "hang loose?"
I LOVE how he chose to wear his whole regalia for this performance!! Very bold for a wide TV audience, but thats why I love Ghost so much!!
This is one of my favorite performances of Ghost! The vocals are immaculate and especially Swiss (3:12 I mean...I don't think I need to say more) and the Ghoulettes in the back are perfection!
EXACTLY.
Swiss is perfection
It’s my favorite part ❤
@@anneisenborghs2170 fact!!
The fact you get to hear Swiss with a little solo oml-
THE WAY SWISS SAID CALL ME SOUNDED LIKE A ANGEL 😭😭😭😭😘💗
Swiss? Swedish is more like it
@@erkjan lol he is called swiss by the fans because he is the Swiss Army Ghoul. ( he does guitar, backing vocal, percussion ( like tambourine) and has even dressed as one of the papa's to play sax )
SWISS😭💕
@@erkjan Swiss is the name of one of the ghouls. Idk if you know much about the band but if not, ghouls are the people who are playing the instruments and doing backup vocals. They technically don't have names, but they have fan names (like Swiss) that include the ghouls (male) Swiss, Aether, Mountain, Sodo/Dewdrop, and Rain and the ghoulettes (female) Cumulus, Cirrus, and Sunshine! Sorry for the little rant, I absolutely live for this band.
HE IS MY FAVV 😭💞💞
Idles.. Turnstile.. Now Ghost?! Whoever is booking these musicians on Kimmel lately is killing it! Thank you!!

Thanks
You had me in the first half… 😅
Jimmy Kimmel Live has been epic on their musical acts ever since YATTA performed. If you kow, you know. 😉😂🤣
@Bill Fukkayommamanigga lmao were lucky rock music is still broadcasted. Grow up
Really appreciating the musicianship of the ghouls in this era of Ghost.
SAME! THe backing vocals of the Ghoulettes is just extra cherries!
They are extremely good
Original Fire and Omega > all
@@DaveHazard95 As a riff junkie, I agree. As a guitar sweat, I disagree.
SWISS SOUNDS AMAZING FR
The backup vocalists really add to the song, it sounds so haunting and reminiscent of a church choir. I also really like that Tobias seems to be putting a Southern drawl into the performance, it's a really fun detail added to the atmosphere
exactly! the ghoulettes and swiss sounded soo good!
That's one of the things i love about ghost is the application of the sound of a church choir and church organ, adjusting it to sound darker
@@whogavehimafork Absolutely! The lyrics and performances itself are great commentary, but even just the music/choir evoking the sound of gospel is so great. I've checked out the rest of Ghost's discography since I made my comment and I've had a blast
can we talk about the visuals they're serving us?? holy crap, beautiful!
Agreed
Really wasn’t expecting ghost to be on this show. So glad though their live concert was amazing!
Why? Selling out and going pop
@Allison Kaiser
If you ask me, it’s not a matter of selling out. First of all, Ghost is from Sweden, the land of ABBA, so he has respect for them (he has covered them) and their kind of music. Second, he also wanted to pay homage to 80s hair metal on this latest album, and for better or worse, that music was more mainstream. But it’s still beloved by many, including Gorge, and isn’t making what he wants the most important? Last but not least, I think Forge wants to make his music insidious, accessible to the innocent masses yet filled with subliminal messages of the insidious occult.
This isn't the first time they were on Jimmy Kimmel
@@sylph8005 The 5 songwriters Tobias hired for this LP write for Madonna, Gaga, The Weeknd, Ariana Grande, Elli Goulding, One Direction, Sugababes, Jordin Sparks, Kesha, K Minogue, Britney & Katy Perry.
This is a carefully crafted LP with some serious industry cash behind it to ensure it makes its money back.
@@allisonrr424 if you think this is "pop" then you have absolutely no fkn idea what pop is
Tobias has such a great voice on the records, but I love it even more without the studio polish. It sounds so real, so human, not perfect but authentic.
I also noticed that each album except the new one and Prequelle the vocals either sound slightly different or mixed in a way to where they sound different. I think it’s to give each of the Papas their own unique voices in the songs, it’s such a small thing but I love that Tobias thought of that, either that or that’s just unintentional and the sounds and styles of each album give off that illusion. Still cool either way.
@@wildcatjs1570 I think its clearly intentional. It really does feel a certain papa is singing a certain song. Especially this album, I can certianly hear Papa IV singing tweinties lmao
The records are amazing but they really shine live. It's so well arranged and everyone nails their parts. That's the key. Park your ego at the door and just perform the music. Everything falls into place from there because it's so well written.
I think Ghost is one of those bands that almost everyone likes when they hear them. Ive never heard someone whos heard them say they didnt like them lmao
Guess I am first the one. There seems to be a mismatch between the voice and lyrics. I think these songs would be better if someone else sang them. However, great lyrics! Also the persona of the band members doesn't match the music. I read about the bands organization like papa emeritus and cardinal copia and seems to be more appropriate for something that a death metal band would hatch. 😂
@@karakol86 but it’s supposed to be catchy not death-metal, the entire point is that it sounds like what the devil or smth would send
Not really, if some one are hardcore and True God's follower , I think their cool and catchy songs won't have any effects to them, but for me their songs are lit 🔥, but Mephistopheles aren't cool 😂
only metal elitist
@@karakol86 the lead singer of ghost was in a metal band too! Check out hungry are the damned by repugnant. He does the vocals on that song and sounds completely different. His range is amazing really
Best band going... Kudos for Kimmel to show Ghost!
Well he's had slipknot on a couple of years ago, so I'm not surprised
Everyone has their shirt lol i was like whats ghost
It would be great if Kimmel could get Powerwolf or Epica to perform on his show.
And A Perfect Circle
@@DAL30505 exactly
So glad this band is finally getting the recogintion they deserve. It's been a long journey Ghost Fans! To the old timers we were always here, to the new blood Welcome!
They’ve been famous since cirice, big guy. Grammy nominated band in 2015-16
I am a new fan and so glad that I found them. Their back catalogue is just immense. Not one bad tune .
Heard them this evening on my way to work, and got hooked within first 30 seconds of this song.
What took ABC to promote this devil worshipping band??? Perfect fit.
new fan here! so happy to have found their music & be here!!

@@nienkehuijbens301 It's easier to feel yourself in a mask. Seriously, try it sometime. :D
The fact this was on ABC in my hometown, that is HIGHLY religious, has me tripping and rocking to it more. THANK YOU GHOST!
Papa's robes look so beautiful and majestic! 😍
He is ALWAYS better live. So powerful live. I feel something is always lost in the studio recordings. I just want to listen to these live performances only.
I wish this was the version on Spotify. It's so much better
Right! The studio versions are always so polished and I think he honestly sounds better live because it's more raw, and because of the backing vocals
Usually, the studio version of any song is when the song is in its infancy. Once a band begins to tour in support of its release, the band can really dial the song in. Especially all those little things that get masked in the recording. GHOST is definitely one of those bands that is better LIVE.
You know, my obsession with this band didn't start in a healthy place to begin with and has gotten more and more outta control recently. This performance gave me goosebumps!!
i feel you, i'm the same
Maybe not a good thing??
What do u mean it didnt start in a healthy place
I think its the same for most of us. Its almost like there’s some dark magic at play ;) haha
@@maxh4651 They probably mean like religious trauma. I swear half of Ghost’s fandom including myself were in a bad place before because of that.
Everything about this band gives me chills, especially the way Papa moves... those little quirks with the head and hands while he's singing about something devilish, drive me crazy! In a good way :)
Powerful performance.

This is one of the best songs I've heard in a long time!
Definitely one of Ghosts better songs. Particularly from the newer material. However, I love most of their tunes. Even the earlier stuff. LOL
The female vocalist make it so good
You need a good female voice in music. I once had the chance to play drums with a pianist. Should have taken it!!
Calllll miiiiiii 🎧🎧🎧🎧
The release of "Impera" is so bizzare: A Ghost-branded Stock Car in the Xfinity series race, a live performance on ABC... it is just so wild to see this super-niche band I enjoyed 9 years-or-so ago enjoying what seems to be mainstream levels of success.
Doesn't hurt that, as an album, "Impera" is probably the most bang for your buck Ghost album to date.
Playing as warm-up to Metallica wasn't mainstream enough? ;)
Dude it really has been almost 10 years 💀💀 never even realized Year Zero came out that long ago
Definitely not the best. Opus, Infestissumam and Meliora in that order.
Completely agree. I personally see a lot of glam rock influence in IMPERA (especially in Spillways, where the chorus reminds me a lot of Poison by Alice Cooper), so the super catchy riffs make it super accessible to newcomers. And then, if they actually looks at the lyrics, they can find a lot of depth and seriousness in them, which can suck them in even more. Not a single bad song in it.
Impera is DEF my favorite sonfar
Saw them live in February with Volbeat.. so happy they’re getting so popular! They truly deserve it.
Yes they're great live. I've seen them twice in concert. First at 98Rockfest in Tampa a few years ago then at their own concert in Clearwater. Absolutely great band. I love his vocals.
Were you in Minneapolis? That was my first ever concert! I had so much fun
Same!! Saw then in Denver... was EPIC!!!! The snow sucked though lool
Saw them opening show in RENO. They are always incredible live!!
I saw them live too but volbeat dropped out once they hit idaho
super duper sick, really cool hearing the live version after hearing the recording

This band is bringing back Rock N Roll . From Black Sabbath and Led Zepplin , a little skid row and some Marilyn Manson and now Ghost .
Ghost is good,but not in the same league as Sabbath or Zeppelin tho.
@@DenimDemon7517 oh not not by any means . I was just talking about their sound

I love the whole new album, Darkness at the heart of my love is pure magic.
Yeah, it's even more awesome when you realize it's not a love song, or at least a traditional love song...more like a ploy by a clergyman to feign love towards their supporters in order to gain power and control over them...like they do.

Unfortunately they have gotten worse....too much 80s soundtrack vibes now
@@abcdefghijkl5408 They are exactly what they set out to do. Yeah, it's more eighties instead of 70s. but still, the song writing is on point. And they where cheese from the first album on. This album may be their second best, after Meliora to me.
Ghost never disappoints. Every single song they've done is golden. Impera continues that streak and is among their best.
Darkness at the heart of my love might be the only song I don't like in their entire discography. Still one of my favorite bands ever. Got a Nameless ghoul tattoo on my arm.
Twenties is pretty average but Tobias and the rest of the crew are super talented.
@@jasonomalley I feel that twenties sounds like a Disney Villain Theme. :p
@@chesco93 the songs kind of ok, the lyrics just seem cringe. I like the album though, although it feels like it's missing the unique ghost flavour for some reason.
@@chesco93 really? I respect your opinion of course, but when you get down to what the song is really about...ie: not a love song by any means...it seemed to hit me different and then I enjoyed it more...just my opinion though, Ghost is so awesome btw!
I’ve loved rock/metal/whatever you wanna call it my entire life (I’m 34.) I’ve always known of Ghost but never dug too deep into them. The last few days I’ve traveled down the RUclips rabbit hole and I think they are extremely talented. With that being said, I don’t think I’ve found a more positive fan base for any artist. They’re soo passionate about the band and welcome newcomers with open arms. Such a breath of fresh air in the current world we live in. 🙌🏻🤘🏻
This performance is incredible! So proud of this band! They killed it!
I remember being a little ghoul getting excited for them on Colbert.. it's been a long time! This should be the new music video for Little Sunshine.. it's sooo good!!!! If you have Ghost, you have EVERYTHING!
Super do good,
Wait... everything?
Like, if you have ghost, you have nutrition, good weather, clean water, a roof over your head? Or, are you maybe exaggerating?

They did Cirice on Colbert about six years ago…
@@gorbag283 Yeah, people seem to forget they already performed on prime time TV. The new album is more commercial though, so it’s getting more recognition.

That microphone is so loud, the lead vocal is completely exposed and yet he has so much control to absolutely nail every syllable. Phenomenal performance!
The whole CD is a masterpiece. This is the CD we need during these times. I have not stopped listening to it, whistling or humming the songs...to the point that my wife is getting annoyed. I playfully looked at her and said "call me..."
Agreed 100% the CD hasn’t left my car stereo since it came out
It’s incredible
It’s ghost. All they make is masterpieces lol
Want to really annoy your wife. Hum the songs and air- guitar, or worse yet, drum on a table.
Such a phenomenal live band. Their arrangements are top class as well.
if not standard, obvious and overdone. this is painfully cliche music. been done a million times... hence the masks.
They really are great live! I saw them a couple months ago and really want to see them again.

@@markcitarella454 okkk that makes more sense.
@@EmpyreanLightASMR it’s not a prosthetic. It’s an actual mask. When he started Ghost, his wife found a mask for the first album Opus Eponymous. Then found another, and another.

Except for the 4th album which had Cardinal Copia who was canonized as papa emeritus IV for this new album
Not the live performance we expected when it was postponed but great video! It is great to see ghost getting bigger
I guess they did the video a couple of weeks ago after the tour concluded. Their European tour starts in less than a month and they probably wanted to get home first.

@@mickywinters8451 I saw them in February in Minneapolis. I couldn't believe how short a concert can be!!!
why do boomers and zoomers both feel the need to share how old they are on music related videos, nobody cares
This band is just so amazing, hypotic and unreal. My favorite band since Queen, so it says a lot
