a thank you for the fun little audience i've suddenly acquired :-) if you love ghost like i do, check it out! mary on a cross speedpaint out now!: th-cam.com/video/QHQ24uaBvMs/w-d-xo.html
I didn’t know that ghost was getting big on tiktok until a friend from high school told me they had heard Mary on a Cross on tiktok and wanted song recommendations. Ghost is the last band I would’ve expected to get popular on tiktok, but I think that’s the ultimate sign of a band making it. Reading through these comments almost brought tears to my eyes. Ghost is the first band I watched grow from relatively unknown to a chart topping band and I’m so happy to see people experiencing the same feelings I felt a decade ago
@@morgan5370 to me Mary on a cross has quite a different vibe from a lot of there other songs but I think if you like this one there is a good chance you’ll like life eternal life eternal is a more slow kinda you know sadder song but it kinda has a close vibe I’d check it out lol
loving the part "your beauty never really scared me" because quote from the secret history by donna tartt is always engraved in my mind and it says "beauty is terror. whatever we call beautiful, we quiver before it." this verse from mary on a cross always reminds of that quote and i think it would mean even if beauty is terror, and we are afraid of it, yours is familiar, and it doesn't scare me. it never made me afraid of you, and if that couldn't, nothing did.
I also thought of that quote!! It also makes me think of how Mary has been called the "second Eve" (as she was humanity's second attempt at perfection) and Eve was said to be incredibly beautiful. So Mary would also by by association, but the kind of beauty that is held by someone untouched by literally any sin or negativity
@@xaniella4859 oh my God, yes! And also Mary being Jesus' mother and still a virgin it makes her beauty saint-like because she manages to preserve her innocence while giving the world a child who changed lives and had abilities other didn't
@@matthiashugner6085 i thought so too at first but i think ot depends on the version?? I was confused when they started putting it on tik tok with "Never really scared me" So idk anymore

1:24 Lyrics: We were speeding together Down the dark avenues But besides all the stardom All we got was blues But through all the sorrow We were riding high And the truth of the matter is I never let you go, let you go We were scanning the cities Walking to greater dues But besides all the glamour All we got was bruised But through all the sorrow We were riding high And the truth of the matter is I had to let you go, let you go You go down just like Holy Mary Mary on a, Mary on a cross Not just another Bloody Mary Mary on a, Mary on a cross If you choose to run away with me I will tickle you internally And I see nothing wrong with that We were searching for reasons To play by the rules But we quickly found It was just for fools And after all the sorrow We'll be riding high And the truth of the matter is I'll never let you go, let you go You go down just like Holy Mary Mary on a, Mary on a cross Not just another Bloody Mary Mary on a, Mary on a You go down just like Holy Mary Mary on a, Mary on a cross Your beauty never really scared me Mary on a, Mary on a cross If you choose to run away with me I will tickle you internally And I see nothing wrong with that Nothing wrong with that (Mary on a, Mary on a cross) Nothing wrong with that (Mary on a, Mary on a cross) Mary on a, Mary on a cross
@@Myrestlessleep it’s not lmao…..look up Mary on a cross lyrics and it literally says it right there I can almost guarantee the commenter copy and pasted it off of google so these are the correct lyrics
i dunno why people are acting like ghost getting popular is such a bad thing. i half found them from tiktok but also my best friend introduced me to them about half a year ago and i have to say, i am obsessed. genuinely my favourite band out there right now and i really hope i get to see them in concert soon, i havent yet!! but yeah i dunno why people think its so bad that they're getting the recognition that they deserve!! thank you for the amazing video btw, i got chills.. keep it up!! ❤
Ghost is the exact genre of music I love and yet never would have found them without Tik Tok. It's nothing bad and brings more popularity to an amazing band.
I know a lot of obscure bands even before tik tok. Don let people make you feel bad for discovering music through an app. I have discovered music by random luck, recommendations, the radio, TH-cam, and yes even tik tok. I just gave them a listen. I knew of.ggost. never listened to them. But this song on tik tok got my heart and now It is on my "artists to explore" list lol
I mean this song is from 2019 it’s not like it spent a ton of years being unknown and only now are famous it’s not that old. At some point bands blow up
@@holyvicar This song by Ghost reminds me a LOT of Kiss and Billy Idol. If you like the description of my comment, imagine it again but in Los Angeles 1984. Mary on a cross, sounds like a song that The Night Stalker would have loved. Fly high Ramirez. 6-7-13.
I remember following them on MySpace scared shitless my religious family would discover and lead to me being grounded. Then as a teen finding out a coworker listened to them. Just awesome watching them grow as a band
As someone who grew up with ghost and have been an avid listener and fan for 7 years I'm so glad that they're getting more recognition and i hope that the new fans take time to listen to all their other amazing songs!
So glad that Ghost is getting popular. Tobias Forge is the man who wrote this masterpiece (for those who didn't know) and he is the mastermind of the band and one of the greatest composers and musicians out there nowadays. And singers, of course
Dude, Mary on a Cross is one of my favorite Ghost songs, and not that the original is bad by any means, but this version you made has become my favorite version. Thank you so much!!
I’ve been a fan of them since like… their first or second album and I’m so happy to see more people discover them and feel the amazing and striking feeling of Ghosts music
It’s strange, this song quickly became a comfort as it was stuck in my head when I had to put down my dog, what makes it worse is that the same day I had to go abroad for a Scout trip, so this song was played repeatedly on the planes, but I remember only a slowed down version of it, so this may have brought me to tears...
They're on Tik Tok? I'm so proud of this band lol. I saw their first show in Canada, the Infestissumam tour, tickets were like $22 with no VIP in a tiny club for about 50 people. I see them every tour and it's been like watching a seedling grow into a beautiful flower. The first time I heard them was when their first single Ritual was played on Octane XM. Crazy how long it's been. They've been my favourite band for.. Nearly a decade. I met Forge as Copia on the Pale tour. Can't wait to see them again. It's been way too long. He's never once released a Ghost song I don't like.
Been with them for about the same amount of time, hate that they blew up on TikTok. It was the nail in the coffin for bring me the horizon and it's now going to hurt the image of ghost for those of us who are against that shit.
@@justaguyonyoutube Idk that's not how I feel. The only thing I don't like is that tickets are so expensive now. That's it. I'm proud of Forge. I don't give a shit about Grammy's but I was still overjoyed when they won the Swedish Grammy and then a US one because he's worked so hard for so long and he deserves recognition for his talents. I know he sees his albums as a progression of improvement, I respect that, I personally love all the albums. Even Opus Eponymous, even though he only plays one or two songs at most at this point, I still love the doom metal album. I'm very open with music. That's why I love Ghost so much. It's dynamic.
@@jademoon7938 I don't mind the ticket prices, it makes sense because he doesn't make money off of album sales. I personally like all of it, I prefer the material with Martin but the new music is pretty good. I will say even though I bought 3 different copies of impera it was easily their worst album and it's still not bad. I don't like the misrepresentation of ghost on social media though, they are easily is the most misinterpreted group.
@@justaguyonyoutube Obviously the ticket prices reflect their success lol I still don't like paying $200-500 for meet and greet when I'm used to seeing them for $25-50. No one on Earth would like that. I pay it but I'm not pleased by spending a lot of money. Idk what people think of them or really care, it's extremely difficult to misinterpret Ghost when Tobias Forge routinely says what he's doing is akin to drawing a little moustache on the Pope, and has always rejected the idea that he believes in Satan or any other Christian ideological beliefs. Anyone who doesn't know that doesn't know anything about the band and thus is not someone I'd be interested in listening to speak on the subject. I feel like one major issue with responding to those people is that you're inadvertently validating them. Giving them attention perpetuates the amplification of a voice not worth listening to. Just ignore it, who cares, I really can't even be bothered to go look up what people are even saying.
I feel like leaving a comment because im so glad they blew up with tiktok recently! Ive been listening to them for nearly 5 years now. They dominated my teenage years and helped me forge my taste in metal (even though back then I had no clue what the real signification of each song was lol). I remember being very sick and bed restrained for 2 full weeks and only playing the prequelle album on loop the whole time because it never got boring… they’re easily in the top 3 of my favourite groups of all time and my favourite metal group ever! Cant wait to see them on tour one day ^^ (Incredible work btw, just as good as the og version imo)

My best friend introduced me to Ghost last year, and I was beyond surprised to see them getting that popular on tiktok, but I'm glad it happened, so that more people can get to discover their great music
These past few years I’ve been trying to find a song I can vibe with. None of them felt like me. Then I found this, and now it’s become popular, I’m really happy for Ghost 🖤
it says it'll be up in 3-5 days look for it on the account LastForever and if it sounds like its recorded with a phone and being played on a laptop a short distance away that's because it is
I literally just fall into a trance listning to this, If Tobias didn't exist I would have for real offed myself like two years ago, He's the reason I keep fighting and he made me proud of myself (to a certain degree)❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love you all who have been listening and actively following ghost for many years and are now not even attempting to gatekeep but instead are giving the new, young listeners song recommendations....amazing fandom. kiss.
I came from tiktok and if it makes any OG fans feel better, I came from an edit of a Ghost performance, it wasn’t anything cringe! This song is amazing
Nah cause I was so surprised when I finally decided to see when this song was made, I thought it was from the 80s maybe 90s but never would’ve guessed 2019 😭 such a good song man. It’s been on repeat for me now for the past month, it gives me nostalgia though I’ve known ghost for about 2 months 😂😂
This hits different when you remember you saw Ghost for the first time in cologne on the 19. April.. I was right in the Front row.. i Met my girlfriend there.. now we already broke up.. this makes me cry to hear.. I Miss Papa.. And I miss her..
After reading all the comments and feeling each comment I wanna say a lot about this song but there's no words that can explain what I actually wanna say it's just a masterpiece and everyone agrees
people are acting like mary on a cross getting popular on tiktok is the worst thing ever when most of the time when a song/band trends everyone forgets about them like 2 weeks later. my point is stop freaking out a ghost song is on that clock app almost nobody is gonna get into ghost because of it (i did though, lol)
i dont understand why they think it's a bad thing like they got more exposure, publicity and most definitely new fans which is good. if dewdrop's fan edit didn't exist, i wouldn't even know this band exists lol thanks to tiktok i get my ears blessed forever by their songs.
I've found the band ghost recently, I found this song on tiktok. If I didn't find this band I don't think I would still be here. This song has helped me so much. The lyric "your beauty never really scared me" hits so hard.
Comecei a ouvir Ghost quando eu era bem pequena (6 ou 9 anos por aí) e depois de um tempo parei de ouvir pois não lembrava muito, depois que essa música fes sucesso no tiktok acabei recordando da banda e agora depois de tantos anos canto bastante quase todas as músicas. Foi uma experiência incrível reviver as memórias 🖤 foi uma evolução enorme deles, e sempre estarei os apoiando até o final, pois fizeram parte da minha infância agora estão presentes na adolescência ❤️🖤
The fact that this song is being spread to more people and becoming more well known and helping the band is great, but it is gonna be annoying when people ask what my favorite Ghost song is, I tell them this, and they immediately think I only like it because of tiktok 😂
*Fun art history fact:* Holy Mary isn't actually ever represented going down on the cross, but rather fainting or praying. The one who IS going down on the cross in paintings is Mary Magdalene, Jesus's most faithful follower after he saved her from being stoned for being a prostitute. According to some biblical apocrypha, she may even have been his wife. So the singer either got his references mixed up, or just thought Holy Mary sounded better than Mary Magdalene.
i seriously wouldnt be the person i am today without ghost's music introducing me into metal, even if they arent the "heaviest" band. i appreciate them so much and i think their music rocks even after years of going without listening to them. thank god im starting to get back into the band again..!! 🤘🤘😋😋
Coming back to this video after over a year made me so emotional. This video is what made me discover ghost and it’s the best thing that has ever happened to me. I’ve gone to 2 rituals so far and I can honestly say ghost saved my life. I went to my first ritual on August 27 2022, and my second on September 8th 2023. If i hadn’t found ghost I wouldn’t have made it to my 16th birthday on September 10th. I’m so glad youtube recommended this video to me again

Lyrics:
We were speeding together
Down the dark avenues
But besides all the stardom
All we got was blues
But through all the sorrow
We were riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I never let you go, let you go
We were scanning the cities
Walking to greater dues
But besides all the glamour
All we got was bruised
But through all the sorrow
We were riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I had to let you go, let you go
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Not just another Bloody Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
If you choose to run away with me
I will tickle you internally
And I see nothing wrong with that
We were searching for reasons
To play by the rules
But we quickly found
It was just for fools
And after all the sorrow
We'll be riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I'll never let you go, let you go
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Not just another Bloody Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Your beauty never really scared me
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
If you choose to run away with me
I will tickle you internally
And I see nothing wrong with that
Nothing wrong with that

They dominated my teenage years and helped me forge my taste in metal (even though back then I had no clue what the real signification of each song was lol). I remember being very sick and bed restrained for 2 full weeks and only playing the prequelle album on loop the whole time because it never got boring… they’re easily in the top 3 of my favourite groups of all time and my favourite metal group ever! Cant wait to see them on tour one day ^^
(Incredible work btw, just as good as the og version imo)
Lyrics:
We were speeding together
Down the dark avenues
But besides all the stardom
All we got was blues
But through all the sorrow
We were riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I never let you go, let you go
We were scanning the cities
Walking to greater dues
But besides all the glamour
All we got was bruised
But through all the sorrow
We were riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I had to let you go, let you go
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Not just another Bloody Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
If you choose to run away with me
I will tickle you internally
And I see nothing wrong with that
We were searching for reasons
To play by the rules
But we quickly found
It was just for fools
And after all the sorrow
We'll be riding high
And the truth of the matter is
I'll never let you go, let you go
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Not just another Bloody Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a
You go down just like Holy Mary
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
Your beauty never really scared me
Mary on a, Mary on a cross
If you choose to run away with me
I will tickle you internally
And I see nothing wrong with that
Nothing wrong with that
(Mary on a, Mary on a cross)
Nothing wrong with that
(Mary on a, Mary on a cross)
Mary on a, Mary on a cross

My best friend introduced me to Ghost last year, and I was beyond surprised to see them getting that popular on tiktok, but I'm glad it happened, so that more people can get to discover their great music
I love ghost and I'm so happy that more and more people find their way to this amazing band!
These past few years I’ve been trying to find a song I can vibe with. None of them felt like me. Then I found this, and now it’s become popular, I’m really happy for Ghost 🖤
The chorus hits every time!
I seriously love ghost so much
N Mary on a cross is a favorite especially the tiktok version
Ty for the post
your beauty never ever scared me
i love this song so much, especially the chorus part!
ima need this as a spotify podcast episode RN
YES
in the proccess of making one my self because nobody else would do it
it says it'll be up in 3-5 days look for it on the account LastForever and if it sounds like its recorded with a phone and being played on a laptop a short distance away that's because it is
@@goobs917 this is so hilarious to me bro💀💀
Do y’all have those songs that legit give you butterflies too or I’m just weird??? This is one of those songs for me
absolutely yes !
Thank you for posting this! Ive been obsessed since i heard it on tiktok. Its my stim song ❤
love this, thank you!! the slowing down makes the song more deep and emotional somehow
I think my favorite line in this song is “your beauty never really scared me”
do never delete this please. i love this song
I literally just fall into a trance listning to this, If Tobias didn't exist I would have for real offed myself like two years ago, He's the reason I keep fighting and he made me proud of myself (to a certain degree)❤❤❤❤❤❤
Same for me. Really helped me change my perspective on things and gain a sense of humor about my pain.
Same
Keep going! Papa is proud of you!
@@ravendevino6419 I'm not gonna cry... I'm not gonna cry❤🥺 yt so much
Also how the fuck did i get 92 likes?!?!?!? Thank you guys for liking my comment, it means a lot even if it's just a comment❤❤❤❤🥺🥺🥺
this ver is so fucking good omg 😭
I love you all who have been listening and actively following ghost for many years and are now not even attempting to gatekeep but instead are giving the new, young listeners song recommendations....amazing fandom. kiss.
I came from tiktok and if it makes any OG fans feel better, I came from an edit of a Ghost performance, it wasn’t anything cringe! This song is amazing
knowing that ghost wont ever come to where i am,
its still nice to think of scenarios where they do, in the dark, blasting this song
Mary on a… Mary on a cross…
I’m going through a hard time. Thank you for posting this.
Its one of those songs youd here at the end credits of an 80s movie telling you what happened to the characters after high school
Да, это почти Джон Бон Джови с наклоном в сторону сатанизма.
This song is so insane, I wish they had a music video, I can’t imagine how cool that could be
Nah cause I was so surprised when I finally decided to see when this song was made, I thought it was from the 80s maybe 90s but never would’ve guessed 2019 😭 such a good song man. It’s been on repeat for me now for the past month, it gives me nostalgia though I’ve known ghost for about 2 months 😂😂
i was around when this song came out. Man, 2019 was a lovely year
Gives me Phantom of the Opera vibes if it was more along the lines of pop punk
IM SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS COMMENT
Can I ask something please? Who’s now in Aether place I heared Aether leaved Ghost band….I’m just curious a little bit :)
This man cooked so hard
Great song for when I’m down, helps me remember that someone likes me for who I am not how I look.
AHHHHHHHHHHH YES I LOVE THIS VERSION
The Anakin and Padmei edits on TikTok got me here. Now I can’t stop listening 😂🤷♂️
This hits different when you remember you saw Ghost for the first time in cologne on the 19. April.. I was right in the Front row.. i Met my girlfriend there.. now we already broke up.. this makes me cry to hear..
I Miss Papa..
And I miss her..
Ive been there myself with a past boyfriend, i want you to know you are not alone. We're here for you buddy. Hope you are doing better now! :(
@@heavymetalcroissant thank you buddy. I do better currently..
still this hits different.
Hope you are doing alright!
we getting out of top 10 most beautiful places with this one🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
I swear I fuckin ascend when I hear this song it’s so good
can we just appreciate how gorgeous that photo is??
Pov: you didn't know this was popular on TikTok until just now
this version makes me indescribably happy ty
God I miss the way this song used to make me feel
I LOVE THIS SONG SM😍
After reading all the comments and feeling each comment I wanna say a lot about this song but there's no words that can explain what I actually wanna say it's just a masterpiece and everyone agrees
this makes a great tea timer
"You're beauty never ever scared me" Is the beauty in the song.
people are acting like mary on a cross getting popular on tiktok is the worst thing ever when most of the time when a song/band trends everyone forgets about them like 2 weeks later. my point is stop freaking out a ghost song is on that clock app almost nobody is gonna get into ghost because of it (i did though, lol)
i dont understand why they think it's a bad thing like they got more exposure, publicity and most definitely new fans which is good. if dewdrop's fan edit didn't exist, i wouldn't even know this band exists lol thanks to tiktok i get my ears blessed forever by their songs.
I've found the band ghost recently, I found this song on tiktok. If I didn't find this band I don't think I would still be here. This song has helped me so much. The lyric "your beauty never really scared me" hits so hard.
Listen to ‘If You Have Ghosts’. Same sort of vibe and one of my personal favorites.
Lirtally my favorite song currently over anything else the whole vibe is amazing
I love it! It sounds just like that one edit on tiktok
i know yall gonna hate me for discovering this song thru tiktok but idgaf 😭 its so good
The important thing is that you found it, no matter how and where :^D
Tbh I'm really happy that more people are discovering this band.
The fact that the official release of the slowed version sounds almost exactly like this just goes to show how good this was
Dude it’s so weird that this was already almost a year ago, it feels like since 2022 time is truly an illusion
I’ve been seeing TikTok Edits of these guys a long time ago and never looked into their music. It’s pretty good..
god bless you fr💀💀
The meaning of the lyrics is a bit sad, but leaves an open door to hope. It is as it sounds: melancholic
Comecei a ouvir Ghost quando eu era bem pequena (6 ou 9 anos por aí) e depois de um tempo parei de ouvir pois não lembrava muito, depois que essa música fes sucesso no tiktok acabei recordando da banda e agora depois de tantos anos canto bastante quase todas as músicas. Foi uma experiência incrível reviver as memórias 🖤 foi uma evolução enorme deles, e sempre estarei os apoiando até o final, pois fizeram parte da minha infância agora estão presentes na adolescência ❤️🖤
your beauty never ever scared me
Vibes from 1980s rock. Love this sound
If anyone is wondering. The guy in the photo is Aether and I believe this is in the fire part of Year Zero.
This version is like a solemn funeral march, like something you’d play at a eulogy
your beauty never ever scared me Q_Q
The fact that this song is being spread to more people and becoming more well known and helping the band is great, but it is gonna be annoying when people ask what my favorite Ghost song is, I tell them this, and they immediately think I only like it because of tiktok 😂
*your beauty never ever scared me...*
*Fun art history fact:* Holy Mary isn't actually ever represented going down on the cross, but rather fainting or praying. The one who IS going down on the cross in paintings is Mary Magdalene, Jesus's most faithful follower after he saved her from being stoned for being a prostitute. According to some biblical apocrypha, she may even have been his wife.
So the singer either got his references mixed up, or just thought Holy Mary sounded better than Mary Magdalene.
Best comment of all the section.👍🏻
i seriously wouldnt be the person i am today without ghost's music introducing me into metal, even if they arent the "heaviest" band. i appreciate them so much and i think their music rocks even after years of going without listening to them. thank god im starting to get back into the band again..!! 🤘🤘😋😋
Someone needs to make an hour long version of this
Coming back to this video after over a year made me so emotional. This video is what made me discover ghost and it’s the best thing that has ever happened to me. I’ve gone to 2 rituals so far and I can honestly say ghost saved my life. I went to my first ritual on August 27 2022, and my second on September 8th 2023. If i hadn’t found ghost I wouldn’t have made it to my 16th birthday on September 10th. I’m so glad youtube recommended this video to me again
