You should 100% do the music video. It's one of the best I've seen in YEARS. On its own, it's just a great, cinematic video. But it also gives a lot of context to the song without being too explicit or on the nose. And what genre are they? Yes. You'll love this rabbit hole, it's really fun. 🤘🔥🤘
Music, like classic melodic rock, that is still stuck in your head when you get out of bed to go to the wash room in the middle of the night or in the morning when you get out of bed.
Ghost is whatever genre Tobias Forge wants them to be whenever he wants them to be it. The only genre album was the first one and that was psychedelic doom metal. None of the others are focused on one genre. And the EP "Seven Inches of Satanic Panic" has like a 1969 happy Doors vibe. But that's the only time you can pin Ghost down to genres on a single release. Everything else jumps around. You will not be able to just listen to a handful of songs and know what Ghost is. That's just... kind of a waste. I know, I did that for years and then finally dived in and realized I had no idea what Ghost was until I listened to ALL of it.
Glad that you liked it so much! For many it's their best song. Some suggestions : Life Eternal, Mary on a Cross, Square Hammer, Rats, Ghuleh / Zombie Queen.
Thank you for your reaction. Your interpretation is not meaningless. Given that Ghost has the song Mary on a... Mary on a... Mary on a cross. Where the first phrases are very similar to the word "marijuana")
Came upon them a month or so ago, when someone I trusted said I might like "Rats", and I was blown away. Over the next week, I listened to everything at random... But unholy hell when I listened to the albums through... OMG! Meliora an Prequelle. I use the phrase near-perfect, too, but I don't know why I'm balking on dropping the "near" out. Spilt Milk, Black Parade, Meliora. My top three fave albums of all time. When it's true love, ya know it!
I'm glad you liked this one! It's easily one of my favorites and was how I was introduced to them. I think you'll like a lot of their songs, but they are very "genre fluid" in that it's impossible to pin them down to one style. I think that Square Hammer and Rats will be easy ones for you to enjoy. P.S. - Yes, I've been ghosted a few times. It's not the most enjoyable feeling, but I'm glad things have worked out for you.
This song is about the devil telling you that everything is ok. He can see the scars inside you. He hears the thunder in your heart no one hears. And it's ok. He understands. The only downside? From now on our merge is eternal. Ghost won a Grammy for best metal performance for this 2016. Now they are nominated again. This time for Call Me Little Sunshine.
It’s all the same. It’s somebody who in the beginning is drawn in, gradually gets spoken to at such a personal level and is then pulled deeper and deeper into the gravity of whatever you can imagine, the church, the devil, a cult, down to where their self is bonded.
Never have I heard a song on the radio and then for days thought about it so much that I tracked down the song on the play list for the station that day. Cirice was the first song I heard from Ghost and I thought why have I not heard of this band before?? I was so excited that there were previous albums and that they had a new album. Man, listening to them for years now GHOST is a genre.
My reaction to Ghost is this: I have almost never listened to a Ghost song I liked right off the bat. I have almost never failed to fall completely in love with every Ghost song after repeated listens.
I absolutely love the guitars on this. And yes, it is refreshing to hear clean vocals. When it comes to Ghost, just assume the song is about the dark lord, a.k.a. The Devil.
Ghost has one of the best fanbases of any band on the planet. Just read the comments beneath literally any Ghost reaction video. Half the joy I get out of watching these reactions is just reading the comments. Pretty much nothing but kind, helpful, informative, encouraging commentary.
I think you would love "Ghouls/Zombie Queen", it's a very underrated masterpiece that brings a lot of nuances in a song. I'm so so glad you're enjoying their songs - My boyfriend also introduced me to Ghost by their Year Zero song as the first song, and in the bigging I was skeptical, but I listened to Rats, Dance Macabre, He Is - they all showed me how different and good Ghost is and how many different things they can do. I'm sure they've made something for every music taste!
Ghost will take you on a journey for sure,they have some epic songs you should do he is and ritual that was in your poll,new songs like spillways or hunters moon or call me little sunshine are great
I discovered Ghost with Year Zero and this song Cirice and i was a fan but not a HUGE fan until the latest album Impera. the latest album is a masterpiece it's a 99 out of 10. When it comes to Cirice, i believe the word is old english for church (or something like that). he's singing from the devil's POV but ig the "devil" can be a substance or however you want to apply it.
This is my favorite Ghost song. There's a song with a similar idea called "Call Me Little Sunshine" from their latest album. Each of their albums has a different sound, so I'll recommend one from each. Opus Eponymous - Ritual Infestissumam - Jigolo Har Megiddo Meliora - Deus In Absentia Prequelle - Witch Image IMPERA - Call Me Little Sunshine I hope you fall in love with this band as much as I did. P.S., there's lore to the band, they have a video called "Metal Myths: Ghost Pt. 2" (there is no Part 1) that explains every bit of lore there is. Also watch the Chapters on their YT channel.
I always thought this song was more about the people in the shadows who are never noticed or cared about, rather than "the dark one". That we know you are there, we see and understand you.
Love the reaction. One of my favorite Ghost songs.. Especially when the calm piano part hit you the first time. :-) You are almost unable to fit Ghost into a single genre.. People call it doom metal, heavy metal, poppy metal, rock, pop, prog metal, and everything in between.. Tobias, the creative songwriting genius, write songs inspired by a lot of music from the 70's and 80's.. You should definitely check out more of their stuff, as you will find a lot of excellent songwriting and stuff to listen to.. My recommendations for you to check out would be: You did "Cirice" now.. and you could listen to "He is" and "From the pinnacle to the pit" (from Meliora album), "Faith" and "Rats" (From Prequelle album), "Kaisarion", "Call me little sunshine" and "Hunter's moon" (from Impera album)... And as a bonus to hear something totally, totally.... totally different... listen to "Twenties" (from Impera album) Enjoy :-)
'Square Hammer', 'Call Me Little Sunshine', 'Mary on a Cross', 'Griftwood'...listen to any of those, and you'll catch yourself constantly humming the riffs.
Ghost’s first three records’ diversity of style, excellent musicianship, and tongue-in-cheek dark lyrics sung with a blear voice remind me of Blue Öyster Cult.
Glad you enjoyed the song. Ghost is a very fluid band. The songs never fit one genre. There new album is quite different from Cirice, but it is still amazing. Tobias changes things up each album as the character that he portrays changes. The whole Ghost mythos that has been created is genius!
Ghost has a couple dozen songs that are the best thing I've ever heard. I just discovered Ghost a month ago. You should check out some of their videos. Next reaction video : Spillways.
ALSO; If you like songs about addiction written from the perspective of the drug, the great classic that started em all was Metallica’s’Master Of Puppets’.
I think this song is about religion but it could also be about addiction. I've seen many comments that say this song helped them overcome a lot of the guilt they had instilled within them from a really strict religious upbringing. But as with all music it means whatever speaks to you personally
Your interpretation of the song is great, from a realistic point of view. Knowing Ghost, the song most likely is about an ostracized girl that the Devil sees and seduces with kind words like "I understand you, we're the same, I can help you". What he does to the girl after that is not precise, we don't know if he has evil intents or if he's really in love with her, but that's the Devil, so... I wouldn't bet on a happy life for the girl. Even though her life sucked to begin with
Yes, I have been ghosted. 16 years ago. It sucked, but only for a little while. Then, someone much, much better came along. Actually, he was already there. Hang in there. This song was the first of their's that I heard, before your first Ghost video. I really like it. But, there's something about his voice. To my ears, it's almost like some boy band guy is singing. It sounds good, but it's confusing to my ears. I guess I need to hear more.
With everything Ghost I take what the song feels like its about, but then add Satan. Its basically foolproof for this band. This one feels like its about someone claiming to know you better than you know yourself and offering to help you, but its Satan so its just a demonic possession. He Is is another song they did which sounds like either a love song or a hymn about god, it is a sort of hymn/love song but its about loving Satan.
It's two meanings. It's Satan telling somebody they're not as bad as the church tells them and that he accepts them for them. It's a play on how churches prey on people's insecurities in order to draw them in and manipulate them. "Cirice" is actually another word for "Church". Watch the video. Really puts the song into context better. All of their songs have at least two meanings... a lot of the songs in Prequelle have 3 meanings.
Honestly, one of my favorite things is watching people argue on what genre Ghost is. Cause you got songs like Faith, From the Pinnacle to the Pit, and Mummy dust which are more metal. Then you have Kaisarion, Kiss the Go-Goat, and Dance Macabre which pop rock. Then you got songs like He Is and Cirice which feel totally out of left field. If you want more ghost I’d recommend Rats, Mary on a Cross, Stand by Him, Square Hammer, Kaisarion, and Call me Little Sunshine.(please ignore me if I got the genre names wrong, I’m horrible at these things)

I don't love this band. But I do like this band, and i do LOVE this song. Ghost turned my 72-year old auntie into a true metalhead. Two weeks ago she asked if I had ever heard of Iron Maiden. I have Ghost to thank for this.
I know this song won(Ghost) a Grammy. But it's not even in my top 10. The lyrics are great, but the song (itself) it's a bit sludgy and repetitive. I'd rather hear" Rats" "monstrance clock" or "Ritual"
I would *generally* genre-ise Ghost as "Symphonic Rock"...as that is a commonality to alot of their songs... Something you should know...Tobias/Papas has a love for the classic horror movies and stories... Cirice (Latin for Church), was inspired by Carrie...the meaning behind the song becomes alot more obvious when you see the Music Video for the song...everything kinda falls into place. Alot of the songs from the Meliora Album have meanings and references like that... Prequela, however, changes that up, with the songs having deeper metaphoric commentary; such as "Rats" being about Twitter and Social Media. Ghost know their stuff... ...Also, Aether forever! Fight me, Sodo-ists! :P
Your comment it could be about a relationship (that you can't get out of) !!! Bingo!!! Except he's not talking about a person, hence the title -- an olde Englishe word for Church. This is about the pure seduction of being seen, and heard, and understood, and the subsequent manipulation "you're lost without me" -- said .Every. .Church. .Ever. [so, so profound] Gotta say, your response to the change when that piano comes in so sweeeeeet (your face) "dude..." ooooohhhhh yass, that's why I watch this stuff
Happy Saturday, hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. Nice to see a video on Saturday. I'm not a fan of this band, there's a theory amongst my friends that ghost is nickleback with masks lol. I'm glad you like it, cuz that's what it's all about.
You should 100% do the music video. It's one of the best I've seen in YEARS. On its own, it's just a great, cinematic video. But it also gives a lot of context to the song without being too explicit or on the nose.
And what genre are they? Yes.
You'll love this rabbit hole, it's really fun.

That's just... kind of a waste. I know, I did that for years and then finally dived in and realized I had no idea what Ghost was until I listened to ALL of it.
But if you have Ghost, you have everything...
Yeah what I did was listen to the albums in order and I've been hooked ever since
No two songs are the same
Glad that you liked it so much! For many it's their best song. Some suggestions : Life Eternal, Mary on a Cross, Square Hammer, Rats, Ghuleh / Zombie Queen.
Zombie Queen slaps so hard.
Why does life eternal make me cry? I need to know because I'm making oceans with my eyes
@@no.one.needs.to.know. because it's simply a beautiful song
I love your very expressive face, it adds a lot to your reactions!
Enter the "hardcore metal" dudes to try & shame you into not liking Ghost. Meanwhile, the "hardcore metal" musicians these cats worship love Ghost.
Thank you for your reaction. Your interpretation is not meaningless. Given that Ghost has the song Mary on a... Mary on a... Mary on a cross. Where the first phrases are very similar to the word "marijuana")
This song won a Grammy in 2015 - so it’s impressed many. Ghost are some of the best songwriters in rock/metal today.
Meliora is a near perfect album. One great song after another. Especially 'He Is'.
If you're gonna buy another CD, it's THIS one.
Yeah, Meloria is the shit
Came upon them a month or so ago, when someone I trusted said I might like "Rats", and I was blown away. Over the next week, I listened to everything at random... But unholy hell when I listened to the albums through... OMG! Meliora an Prequelle. I use the phrase near-perfect, too, but I don't know why I'm balking on dropping the "near" out.

It's more about how Christianity does that wrapped in it being about the Devil.
Art is up for interpretation.... I think the song is about making oatmeal cookies. 😉😇
It’s all the same. It’s somebody who in the beginning is drawn in, gradually gets spoken to at such a personal level and is then pulled deeper and deeper into the gravity of whatever you can imagine, the church, the devil, a cult, down to where their self is bonded.
Touching...😱
Cirice literally means "church", it's the Anglo Saxon word for church (I studied Anglo Saxon)
Never have I heard a song on the radio and then for days thought about it so much that I tracked down the song on the play list for the station that day. Cirice was the first song I heard from Ghost and I thought why have I not heard of this band before?? I was so excited that there were previous albums and that they had a new album.

My reaction to Ghost is this: I have almost never listened to a Ghost song I liked right off the bat. I have almost never failed to fall completely in love with every Ghost song after repeated listens.
You need to listen to Dance Macabre and Rats by The Ghost
You've got to watch their videos to get a full appreciation of this band! They won a Grammy for this song. The video for this is insane!
I absolutely love the guitars on this. And yes, it is refreshing to hear clean vocals. When it comes to Ghost, just assume the song is about the dark lord, a.k.a. The Devil.
nothing more far from the truth, the lirycs is about the religon that control the masses, saying they know you and know your fears and your "scars".
Happy Saturday! :D
My introduction to Ghost. Good melodies here, especially the bass.
Guitar solo also dope.
Ghost has one of the best fanbases of any band on the planet. Just read the comments beneath literally any Ghost reaction video. Half the joy I get out of watching these reactions is just reading the comments. Pretty much nothing but kind, helpful, informative, encouraging commentary.
Yesterday when I was vibing to this song, I was thinking like "what would Lauren have to say about this banger?". Love your reactions!
Got excited when I thought I saw “Circle” in the title lol. I thought “Did someone recommend Esoteric to her?”
Ghost is everything that’s the best from 80’s heavy metal sound blended with the early 2000’s metal riffs! Really cool sound!
Watch the TH-cam video “How Ghost writes a song”
I think you would love "Ghouls/Zombie Queen", it's a very underrated masterpiece that brings a lot of nuances in a song.
I'm so so glad you're enjoying their songs - My boyfriend also introduced me to Ghost by their Year Zero song as the first song, and in the bigging I was skeptical, but I listened to Rats, Dance Macabre, He Is - they all showed me how different and good Ghost is and how many different things they can do.

Do spillways, Respite and darkness in the Heart of my love.
Please lol
Ghost hits every time and I love how they are multi genre.
Ghost is defined by spotify as "Kickass metal"
Goosebumps every time. Never get tired of this song.
The music video for this one is really cool
*edit: forgot to say how excited I am for your reaction to He Is, I love that song
A relationship you can't get out of. That's a fairly accurate assessment. lol
But not between people.
My favorite song ever, with the shape by slipknot in close 2nd. Can’t wait for more ghost reactions
This is my favorite Ghost song. There's a song with a similar idea called "Call Me Little Sunshine" from their latest album. Each of their albums has a different sound, so I'll recommend one from each.
Opus Eponymous - Ritual
Infestissumam - Jigolo Har Megiddo
Meliora - Deus In Absentia
Prequelle - Witch Image
IMPERA - Call Me Little Sunshine
I hope you fall in love with this band as much as I did.
P.S., there's lore to the band, they have a video called "Metal Myths: Ghost Pt. 2" (there is no Part 1) that explains every bit of lore there is. Also watch the Chapters on their YT channel.
Opus - Elizabeth
Infestissumam - Monstrance Clock
Should have watched the video for this reaction . Cool with new fans :)
This is what I personally classify as haunted metal just feels right
I always thought this song was more about the people in the shadows who are never noticed or cared about, rather than "the dark one". That we know you are there, we see and understand you.
The 2010-2016 incarnation of Ghost were, in my opinion, the best that was to be in Ghost history.
Tobias, Martin, Simon, Aksel, and the rest.
The video to this is great!!
hah! your reaction is so much like mine was back in the day, love it! more ghost!
Love the reaction. One of my favorite Ghost songs.. Especially when the calm piano part hit you the first time. :-) You are almost unable to fit Ghost into a single genre.. People call it doom metal, heavy metal, poppy metal, rock, pop, prog metal, and everything in between..

And as a bonus to hear something totally, totally.... totally different... listen to "Twenties" (from Impera album)
Enjoy :-)
'Square Hammer', 'Call Me Little Sunshine', 'Mary on a Cross', 'Griftwood'...listen to any of those, and you'll catch yourself constantly humming the riffs.
Great reaction, if you like Cirice, I think you will appreciate Square hammer or Dance macabre by Ghost also!
Its a song about manipulation disguised bas a love song and its fu*kin awsome
Great reaction, this song sticks. I would go for "He is" if you want to check out something that is equally 'different'.
Ghost’s first three records’ diversity of style, excellent musicianship, and tongue-in-cheek dark lyrics sung with a blear voice remind me of Blue Öyster Cult.
Please do “Call me little sunshine”.
"Rats" is supercool, especially with the video.
Danse Macabre, Rats, Square Hammer would be my next choices for Ghost songs. They are all pretty catchy.
Keeping with more of this style, I would recommend you listen to, From the Pinnacle to the Pit next.
They have done the "addiction talking" in another song, I could see it working for this as well
Tho I am not a big Ghost fan, my favorite song by them Majesty.
Great song
You’re a gem
To me this ties together with He Is.
Glad you enjoyed the song. Ghost is a very fluid band. The songs never fit one genre. There new album is quite different from Cirice, but it is still amazing. Tobias changes things up each album as the character that he portrays changes. The whole Ghost mythos that has been created is genius!
All their stuff is cool, but I really dig their 2nd and 3rd records. Killer live show, too.
You'll freaking love Zombie Queen and He Is. Both songs are "a genre of their own".
Its about becoming possessed.
With Ghost, the videos are always part of it, just awesome 👻🙏👍👍👍❤️
Ghost has a couple dozen songs that are the best thing I've ever heard. I just discovered Ghost a month ago. You should check out some of their videos. Next reaction video : Spillways.
ALSO; If you like songs about addiction written from the perspective of the drug, the great classic that started em all was Metallica’s’Master Of Puppets’.
If breathtaking beautiful vocal harmonies and chord progressions are your thing, you have to try " HE IS " , a brilliantly beautiful ballad by Ghost.
Recommendations for your next Ghost reaction: He Is, Rats, Ritual, Square Hammer.
I'm still wondering why people like "He is"
Is it because of the parody?
I recommend "Prime Mover"
You should check out the live version of this song!
The genre is satanic Pope metal of course :P This is definetly my favorite from them.
The music video is a must watch tho
Very much Carrie vibes imo
From the Pinnacle to the Pit
I think this song is about religion but it could also be about addiction. I've seen many comments that say this song helped them overcome a lot of the guilt they had instilled within them from a really strict religious upbringing. But as with all music it means whatever speaks to you personally
01:43 do no tlook that way that is onli guitar and drummer hit ride cymbal.
Your interpretation of the song is great, from a realistic point of view.

He is, Cirice, and Monstrance Clock in the same spectrum

Your comment it could be about a relationship (that you can't get out of)
!!! Bingo!!!
Except he's not talking about a person, hence the title -- an olde Englishe word for Church. This is about the pure seduction of being seen, and heard, and understood, and the subsequent manipulation "you're lost without me" -- said .Every. .Church. .Ever.
[so, so profound]
Gotta say, your response to the change when that piano comes in so sweeeeeet
(your face) "dude..."
ooooohhhhh yass, that's why I watch this stuff
I think it's a seduction song. A devil seducing a lady who is in a dark place.
Well, Circle is a Slipknot song, so maybe you weren't as far off as you thought😀
Intro sounds a lot like Metallica to me.
one of the few songs i enjoy by ghost
Not my top 5 ghost.
Do enjoy your reactions. Honest.
You. Not me. But also me. Anyway.
This is literally the only ghost song I like, and maybe rats. Just not my cup of tea. Good reaction though. 🤘
Happy Saturday, hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. Nice to see a video on Saturday. I'm not a fan of this band, there's a theory amongst my friends that ghost is nickleback with masks lol. I'm glad you like it, cuz that's what it's all about.
Check out the video FAITH, FROM A PALE TOUR CALLED DEATH. It's a great video. Also, Ritual, another great song!!!
Great reaction video. Thanks!!!!
The song is whatever you want it to be.
