The Metal Goddess 🤘😎🤘
You are my favorite Scottish soul singer
This is awesome! Now you’ve been blown away by Phil and Pantera you should check out a band called Jinjer- specifically the song “Pisces, live session” they are a really talented band and the singer Tatiana has a range that is truly gonna take your head off- hopefully you don’t know them already! Don’t research them and do a reaction!
@@anthonystinson5722 I recorded Jinjer this week it’s going up Wednesday! It was CRAZY!!! 💪😊
Check out the studio version. The first minute or so is an intro that really sets the stage for the rest of the song.
Also, RIP Vinny and Dime.
Also features guest voc.'s by Rob Halford, of Judas Priest fame.
I think the original video should be removed from pretty much everywhere. It's such a terrible cut and paste (I think the band wasn't even involved on it) and doesn't do justice to the song. Unfortunately it's often what reactors choose to react to and they don't get the right picture of the song.
For real everybody reacts to the video that cuts the song up so terribly, its just not the same
I absolutely agree, the studio intro really sets the hook for the entire song... The dog-fight between Dime & Phil is what usually reels em in. \m/
Love Pantera obv. 3 min in bored already
Also one of the best guitar players to ever live! RIP Dimebag
RIP Dimebag Daryl❤❤❤
and best friend to Zakk Wylde.
RIP Brother
RIP Vinnie Paul as well. Lest we not forget him either
the best
😂😂😂 your face when Phil hit those 3 high notes!! I was waiting lol
I was not ready! 😂
Cowboys From Hell (the album this song is on) is my favourite. Vocally, it’s a bridge between Phil’s 80s Halford-infused glam style and the 90s testosterone-fuelled style that he became known for. Musically, a sign of things to come. The perfect balance imo.
Cowboys was an initial transition for them, from their "glam metal" (I hate that term) beginnings. Vulgar Display of Power was the beginning of what the band would become, and Far Beyond Driven set them on their path for the remainder of their career.
I got to see them play in a bar in Houston when Cowboys from Hell was coming out
@@karlwendell6177 oh man that would’ve been amazing
Pantera - power metal. Its a "hidden" gem!
@@Gravstein yes, its still has a very similar sound to cowboys to hell, and i would argue this was their start of their new phase out of glam. But mannn those early 80s albums dimebag shredded.
Phil has a amazing voice. He hits a G5 at the end. I’m 46 years old and was lucky to see Pantera in concert a few times in the 90’s.
Yeah, and it's amazing he could do that, when he is a natural low bass, with a A1 being in his chest range and E1 accessible with chest-fry. I cannot believe more people haven't discussed his crazy highs for such deep voice naturally.
This Pantera song is one of my favorite songs of all time and probably the pinnacle of Philip Anselmo's technical skill. These lyrics have helped me through a lot of grief in my life. This is a song about death, but it's so melodic and there's so much energy in it, I can't stay sad singing along to it.
I have no formal training, but I'm hearing Phil go from very low, like Johnny Cash baritone, into very high, soprano registers in the end. I don't even know if I'm using the right terminology, for what he's doing, but I've tried to mimic him and it takes incredible skill and a lot of breath. I also love how the lead guitar mirrors his vocals at the end of the song. Thank you for featuring it. R.I.P. DIMEBAG. We miss your riffs!
Phil was an amazing singer back in the day. And it’s clear that he had a lot of passion for what he was doing. This is such a great song and I’m so glad that it helped you through a hard part of your life. Isn’t that the most amazing thing about music that can help you at a time when nothing else can. Thank you so much for watching, I’m so glad that this one touch too ❤️
A lot of music has helped me through bad times. A lot
I love Dime’s solo but then I love everything Dime played.
He has the cleanest sound of all heavy solos. Pure guitar with minimal effect.
Wow this brings back so many memories. I used to play this tune in a band I was in when I was 19 in pubs, bars and even charity events.. it just reminds me how talented our singer must have been to pull this off! Also it was really random to our set list but it got one of the best reactions. Great content!
Oh shit yeah! They must have been fantastic! Thank you so much my dude, I appreciate it from a musician 😊💪
LOVE LOVE LOVE this reaction!!!
Thank you for doing this song! And thank you for not skipping through the solo. Love you for that! ♥️
You’re very welcome my dude 😊🌸
Arlington boy here...... went to the same high school as the guitarist and drummer... love this
Thank you Steven 😊
Great reaction. It's iconic in every way. That riff, the guitar solo. How the mellow parts capture the grief and sorrow you feel.. The heavy parts capture the anger and rage you feel. Then the matching triple at the end with Dimebag finishing it. It's also personal to me. The Vulgar Dispay album was my introduction to Pantera in the early 90s. I bought the Cowboys album soon after. My dad died of cancer in February 1993. This song became a huge coping mechanism for me.
Thank you Thomas! 😊🌸
I'm constantly and forever distracted by how great your hair is. Lovely.
You have some deafness in one ear, and can sing like that? That's very impressive. And a comedian/soul singer? That is definitely the first time I've heard that combo! Best of luck!
Thank you Sam! I appreciate it. And I’m nothing if not chaotic 😂
That's Phil same singer They changed from glam metal And developed a harder sound that's what I fell in love with the group
Pantera from my home state of Texas .
Found this video on my recommended and I usually don't comment much, but... That comment on how trolls need to try harder to even try to get you just made me laugh and smile 😂
I am nothing if not a supporter of people expressing themselves, even if it is to be a d*ck 😂
Well, TH-cam sent me here because the algorithm KNOWS I like when people find Pantera for the fist time. Lots of good tracks from these guys!
Pantera is from my town. Arlington/Fort Worth Texas 💪🏻
I would LOVE to hear you make a soul cover of this song! I think that could really work. 🤩🤘
That’s a fantastic idea I’d love to here that
Lol... dead inside due to music... absolutely...😅
Amazing voice!
Now we just need you to give us a metal song cover!
You are a lovely, sincere, plus-sized bundle of sass! Thank you for doing a great reaction to one of my favorite songs!
You are most welcome my dude! Thank you for your kind words 😊🌸
Thank You so much... great reaction! 5 minutes and Cemetery are two completely different songs and cannot be compared... Cemetery is a soft but gritty ballad type! 5 minutes is an in your face, beast that ass right now type of groove beat! Far Beyond Driven was #1 when it was released! The first metal album to do so... one of the hardest ever! 5 minutes alone is what I need for a few ppl!
Amazing reaction...
R.I.P. Dime R.I.P. Vinnie
Thre333333333333333333333
Nail it back, it ain't no candy!
Thank you my dude! I also love that you give me this passionate back story! Keep it going brother 💪😊💪❤️
EAT IT, DON'T TASTE IT EAT IT!!!
Finally! Great reaction and very grateful it blew your mind - now we don't all look like liars! Cemetery Gates is definitely one of their ballads, but it's an amazing song and probably the best one to hear the range on Phil's vocal. I'll say it again - 5 minutes alone may be one of the most uninteresting Pantera songs. Its not that its a bad song, its not good either and only became so popular because of the billboard charts. Most of their songs are heavy, groovy, and aggressive, and way more interesting in every way than 5 minutes alone is. Looking forward to your future metal reactions!
Thank you Mark! Yeah I was wondering if I was gonna have to call you all out for being liars 😂 But no it was awesome! Yeah he really is a real talent here, I enjoyed the song a lot and Im looking forward to more reactions. Glad you are too 😊
Agreed. I think Mouth for War or I'm Broken are much better songs and more representative of the band's sound.
agreed, I love pantera but I think 5 min is dogwater lmao
5 minutes alone did not chart on billboard.
DOMINATION (LIVE IN MOSCOW) DBs guitar solo is epic
That reaction on ur face when Phil hit those 3 high notes .... Priceless!!! 😃😃👏👏😅😅
Mind blown 🤯
Pantera. The greatest of all time. Period. All hail! You have really gorgeous hair in this video by the way :)
They are great 👍 also Thank you 😊🌸
PanterA , Nothing on but the radio is a awesome tune offa METAL MAGIC 1st.
Album ! Dimebag was 17 .
You're really hilarious!!!😅I'll troll you just for you to slay me and make me laugh because you do it sooooo well!!😊
Challenge accepted 💪😂
If you're curious about the previous 80's version of Pantera with a completely different lead singer and more of a glam metal sound (when they were still a bar band in Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX), I recommend Come On Eyes (studio version). The song writing is as good as anything Ratt produced back in the day, (though they had a much smaller production budget than Ratt, which is evident) and it's a wonder that it isn't more well known. Plus, the vocals are at the opposite end of the vocal spectrum than Phil Anselmo's.
By the way, I played in a band that opened for them several times back in those days, and it was obvious that it was only a matter of time before they were eventually discovered. They treated their bar shows like full blown concerts with pyrotechnics, Marshall amplifier stacks and a spotlight solo for the young guitar wizard known at that time as Darrell Abbott. The first time I saw them, I was blown away.
Great comment! Thank you 😊🌸
I’m TEXAN and saw THE TEXAS STATE ASSAULT TEAM live 6 times! First time was in a smallish club in my hometown, San Antonio, which is a Hugh Rock Town! Many of the very best bands have said we are a great, welcoming city. Famous for it. That PANTERA club show was hands down the best small show I’ve ever seen. Peel your face back, hair on fire, audiovisual overload! They had Airport landing lights pointed straight at the crowd, on each side of the drums, perfectly timed with Vinnie’s rapid fire drumming. Me and my 300 pound friend held onto the the front barricade the whole show. It wasn’t easy! Ha Ha! 😁👍
A Texan by birth here. Saw them 7 times myself
I’m no expert on these things, I’m a rock/metal fan though! I think a lot of people from outside of metal often get a surprise by the sheer variety and depth within the style. Also, the evolution and development of bands through their careers as the playing skills and tricks increase. Over recent years watching reactions like yours, from people who really understand music, and I also include classically trained musicians, the level of sheer musical talent, craftsmanship and understanding has really almost validated my reasoning for this music genre being my music of choice!
I should add, in first year at high school we were put through a basic music test to see if we could identify key changes, time changes and time signatures. Apparently I aced it. I was put forward to learn double bass for the school orchestra. I have never got to grips with formal music training or theory. I can’t read music, I play by ear, I couldn’t tell you what note or chord is being played, but I have been told I can pick out excellent examples of a style and understand real talent and ability. I’m also autistic and have synesthesia.
Yeah it has been a real eye opener to see a lot of different dynamics in metal that I wouldn’t have expected! Thank you for this wonderful comment Simon, I really enjoyed getting your take on it! 😊🌸
Good evaluation, and I dig your personality and energy. Look forward to peeping your other videos.
Thank you for watching my dude! Hopefully you find some more vids that you enjoy 🥰
Fun Fact: Pantera started out in the early 80's as a Glam rock band with albums like "metal magic", and "I am the night", then in 88 they made their first attempt at being heavy with "Power Metal" and then in 1990 Cowboys From Hell was released and Modern Pantera was born.
It's from the same album as Dominating and he was also a HEAVY cig smoker too!!!.....absolute beast of vocals.
This is my favorite Pantera song, and 1 of my favorites period (I'm from the Dallas, TX area, where they're from, so it's required... lol)! I'm glad you have them a 2nd chance to understand them better! Welcome to metal. Enjoy the ride because we love having new people join our community (excluding the "elitists" that want metal to stay hidden, but most of us can't stand them anyways)!
Thank you Mitchell! I’m looking forward to learning and hearing more. 😊💪
Cool cool you go girl. Nice pick to who requested this!
I'm glad that you turned up the audio a bit. I'm a musician, comedian and a huge Pantera fan. Maybe turn it up just a little more. Just a bit.
It is considered one of the top 5 guitar solos in rock music
I guess some people cannot distinguish between noise and talent
“Fight me in the comments” made me subscribe! Great video too, but that comment and it’s context make me want to hear more!
😂 I’m so glad that my usual bad behaviour has had an impact. Thank you for subbing my dude 😊💪
As a pantera addict I loved your reaction and your open mind and respect as a soul singer for metal and of course your beautiful accent and power statement at the beginning 🤘shout out to Glasgow Girls!!!
Thank you Monika!! I appreciate it 💪❤️
You should check out their cover of planet caravan if your looking for a softer sound from them.
omg youre the sweetest reactor ever. youre intro is so cute!
😊 thank you Daniel 🌸
Btw, now, that you got thru Pantera, I would like to recommend you the all-time favorite from Pantera for a private, relaxed (somehow) listening: The whole "Vulgar Display Of Power". It is so groovy and marked the best of Pantera after the, as you said "more commercial" phase. It has so much impact even on my playing on the bass for decades, and still inspires me now that I am learning the 7-string guitar. Sick grooves and in-your-face, but with aggression and style.
They were so influential because everyone in this band was so talented, and they knew that they were "onto something" and how to present it without becoming pathetic or meaningless. All these later "new metal" or "groove metal" bands have a lot of the focus on good rhythms, and Pantera was one of these bands that established this kind of groove in metal approach first.
Anything relaxed would be super interesting to hear as its not a genre that I would associate with relaxing! Ill check it out! 😊
Vulgar is the greatest metal album of all time.
I still remember the first time I saw a Pantera video. It was like 92 or 93', and I saw Walk. I was blown away.
Almost Every Single TH-camr
pauses and goes back at the first falsetto, just to be even more blown away by the third and second ones 😁
It’s too good! Thank you for watching my dude 🥰
You should check out Pantera Domination 1991 Moscow. 1.6 million people in the crowd... Special concert. RIP Dime Bag and Vinnie Paul (Brothers, Guitar and Drums).
Another good song of theirs for reaction “Drag the Waters” off the Great Southern Trendkill album. Glad you enjoyed this one
I am loving these videos so damn much. Pantera was my favorite band growing up and I understood your opinion on 5 Minutes Alone. Sooo glad you got to hear this one. Really though, I am here to implore you to, when you have a moment to yourself, watch the Bill McLintock mashup of Bill Withers and Pantera. It is surprisingly amazing and perfect for you to hear at this point in your journey. Another great soul metal mashup is his Ratt / Marvin Gaye mashup. Thanks for making cool stuff and cracking me up.
You are very welcome Jarvis! I will check those out for sure. Thank you for watching my dude 😊💪
“Keep that shit coming calling me a fat bitch” … instant subscription. Love your attitude and self confidence… the epitome of Beaty is self confidence. Be well my friend. I am enjoying your videos.
Thank you Paul 😊💪🌸
You have a new fan and friend from The Great Pacific Northwest! love you style and your humor...hehe. I was such a huge Pantera fan that in late '91 my son was born and shortly after, Pantera came to Seattle opening for Skid Row and money was tight so I had to listen to my local radio station all weekend to win tickets because they did a pick-a-ticket weekend where if you were caller #10 after the cue to call you could choose John Cougar Mellancamp, Skid Row, and some other band. Late Sunday I dialed and the DJ picked up and said you're caller #9 thanks for trying, and I yelled "Hey!" and he said yeah can I help you and I said "hey man I know you got extra Pantera tickets because everyone is choosing JCM, I've been listening all weekend" and make a long story short he gave me a pair. Got to the show with my new wife, her firts ever live rock show was Pantera and skid row, Pantera scared the F out of her it was so loud, she actually had her head between her knees at one point. Not me I was in the winner section first row 2nd floor balcony and rocked my ass off. I'm a musician and was playing air guitar, drums and singing Phils shit with him and obviously Vinnie noticed me because at the end of their set he stood from the drums and pointed his sticks up towards me and was pointing at me as he walked to the front of the stage and finally I looked around and he had to be pointing at me and I said "Me?" and he said "Yes!" then pulled back to throw a drumhead like a frisbee and said "are you ready?" and I waved my hands upward and said hell yeah! (not where they got the band name from later on that I know of....lol) and Vinnie tossed it, coming right at me the 2 feet from my hands takes a dive to the crowd below me! Vinnie shrugs his shoulders and says "I tried!" and I shook my head yes while giving him a double thumbs up, and he gives me a double thumbs up back to me, then salutes me and turns and walks off stage. The '92 Seattle Show with skid row Vinnie spent a couple minutes with me because they loved thier fans and I'm sure he could tell I was a huge fan and knew their stuff, I'll never forget it. Music isn't the same without The Abbott Brothers, RIP Dime and Vinnie! ... .. . . . . . sorry for mistakes in my wriiting, no time to correct...lol ky
This is a wonderful comment. All those amazing memories! Thank you so much for sharing my dude! And thank you for your kind words 😊🌸
Well-spotted, the Bruce influence. I'm the same age as the Pantera guys, actually born 3 weeks before Dime, R.I.P. I'm also an American guitarist, and Maiden and Priest were 2 of my main faves back in my high school days. Diggin' the channel! (No pun intended). lol
Thank you Rick! I’m glad you’re enjoying it! I know I am 😊🌸
Melissa! Holy shite where have you been hiding?!? I love reactions with fire and sass, and based off of this reaction, you have it in spades! I LOVE this song.
For me, Metal was a medium for me to dive into and soothe my mental woes and issues. It became a music of catharsis and healing.
If you are looking for trouble Zack, you’re in the right place 😂 Im so glad you found the channel! Yeah everyone that I have spoken to about the reason for their love does talk about the importance of expressing anger, sadness and the like. Im learning as I go a long about mosh pits and the culture but it is super interesting. Thank you for watching my dude! 🥰
Nice! Queensryche's Take Hold of the Flame, has now been unlocked. 😎😁
😊💪yass!
First time seeing one of your video's and earned yourself a sub 100%
Great reaction and look forward to watching more 😁👏
Ugh. I wish this version would get deleted. Everyone seems to find this one. Do yourself a favor and listen to the album version and get the full intro
Metal singers often surprise people when they sing in styles that people don't expect
I really enjoy your approach, I'd be very interested in hearing you react to Domination live in Moscow.
Iron Maiden "Hallowed Be Thy Name" LIVE is quite astounding! I love Glasgow! We did a gig in PAISLEY and I had my first IRN BRU!
Glasgow is the best city in the world for its people but I am terribly biased 😊❤️
1982 at Hammersmith ftw!
@@SoulSingerDiscovers Loved Scotland. Played all the big cities and a buncha small ones too. I experienced rain while it was sunshining in Dundee haha
@@SoulSingerDiscoversI have to agree with you on this. My mum, aunties and grandpa are all from Glasgow 🏴
Thank you fir doing my favourite Pantera song 🤘🏻🇬🇧🖤 I think you might like Michael Kiske of Helloween as well. Just think if Bruce Dickinson and Rob Halford had a baby 😂😂😂
This Love and their cover of Planet Caravan are amazing
As always, not the full version. One of the best intros ever and they cut it!
This is a shortened version of this song.....the real song has a slow instrumental at the beginning.
1st Cementery Gates belongs to their 1st album 1990. The dif is just a balad turn so his vocals are cleaner but he sings so technical and cool. Super wide rvocal range and resourses.
Your personality is great I think you're awesome and you're too funny
Thank you so much!! 😊💪💙
The guitar is the second soloist and the voice In this song. I think this is Phil's best vocal work, in subsequent albums he practically did not sing with his normal voice.
3:51 You should Post some of Your Comedy Acts, I had No Clue You did Comedy until now.
So.. This song was released about four years BEFORE 5 Minutes Alone.
Phil could have gone higher. He was planning on stepping up another octave, until he found out he would have to pay for all of glass in the joint, that shattered.
I don't know if you did any Judas Priest(Rob Halford) but Phil before joining Pantera was singing in a Judas Priest cover band, he could always hit those high notes, but changed up to a deeper tone for Pantera.
The Major Pain throw back was a nice touch
Phil is self taught, listening to Rob Halford, but after Cowboys From Hell, Phil said, he wanted to find his own vocal style, so he started screaming until his cords didn't hurt anymore, so he calloused his cords, but if you check out his project called EN MINOR he sings clean, but he's a baritone vocalist
Oooo you're going to have fun with Rainbow and Dio in general.
Congratulations on 1k subscribers!!
Thank you my dude! I am absolutely hyped! 😊💪
Check Faith No More - Caffeine - LIVE! then their song Evidence.
Pantera fans are loyal af. Any song you react to were here!! 🤘
One of the best guitar solo's of all time.
This video cuts out a large, very important part of the song. Listen to the full version.
There was a bit of talking over some of the best parts, especially Phil’s screams at the end, but I think you got the point 🤘
like before watching......little exited to see this reaction
Oh this is a sub. Megadeth, Pantera, Priest and Maiden in like two weeks. And a promise of Jinjer... Cant wait to see where this is going. ;-)
Yass! Thank you my dude! 😊💪
My first time seeing you- love you already! And you sing so great!!
Thank you Nancy! Im glad you’re enjoying it! 😊🌸
I love this lady's accent.
I would like to suggest a band from Mongolia called the Hu. They use throat singing which I find cool. "Yuve Yuve Yu" is my favorite song. They've got some songs that have been redone featuring other singers like "Black Thunder" featuring Serj Tankian and DL of Bad Wolves also "This is Mongol" featuring William DuVall of Alice in Chains. I highly recommend both of those songs too!
a must watch Epica unleashed live official video Simone is my fav female singer in the world
Check out Eric Adams of Manowar. Best scream in metal hands down. Heart of steel showcases he’s voice well
You should have done the long version
Yo fuck those trolls and just keep doing you. Your entitled to all your own opinions and I hope you keep growing and reaching new heights!
Thank you my dude! This really brightened my day. I hope you’re having a shiny day also ✨😊❤️
Happy you're growing so quickly.
You should check out some live Coheed and Cambria!
Thank you my dude 😊🌸
This should have been first and then 5 Minutes Alone. This Love should be next. Great insight thank you and because of that, you have a new subscriber
Thank you Steve! 😊💪
My personal favorite Pantera song ever made. People first reactions would make million sub channel for 80/90's metal
It all falls down to each person's perspective and what they are wanting to hear. Or hoping to hear. All music demands you to take it at face value. Isn't it beautiful?
🌞🙏💛☯️🌞
Getchya Pull! CFH.
Nice - one of my all-time favorite songs out of any genre.
The Sleep is another really good one.
For a 1st time reaction, ALWAYS studio versions! Not official videos (often edited songs) or live versions.
Dime and Vinny RIP awesome brother musician. Great bad.
I remember being online the night we heard Dimebag died. I forget what platform we were all on but I was part of spending the next 24 hours playing and sharing our favourite Pantera tracks. I couldn't stay for the full 24 as I had urgent jobs to finish at work in the morning and we are just over the other side of the dateline from US. Just went to work with 2hrs sleep instead.
Aw man! It’s really awful when a musician you love dies. You might never have got to meet them but they touch your life in so many ways and its such a hit when they go. When Tom Waits goes Ill need a stretcher!
For another, much older example of a singer and guitarist matching each other note for note check out "Strange Kind of Woman" live from Deep Purple's "Made in Japan" album. It's from 1972. The singer is Ian Gillan, and the guitarist is Richie Blackmore.
But I think my main request for another singer for you to check out would be Mikael Stanne (pronounced shtah-nuh) from Dark Tranquility. Specifically, the performance of "Atoma" from Summer Breeze German 2017. This would be a great introduction to the genre of Melodic Death Metal and showcases both his clean and harsh vocals, and that specific performance shows what a friendly guy he is as well.
Just an FYI this video version of the song was shortened. The original is much better, has a nice slow build up in the beginning. Pantera was a hair band early on, this song is from the first album as a metal band.
I love your bubbly personality!
Thank you my dude! I try my best 😊
