True though! Mick's all coy about "guess my name", and Tobi's making it damn clear who he's supposed to be! The way he growls the "Call me Lucifer" bit is perfect.
I love that even though he isn't performing with his own band, he steps back at the end and appreciates the musicians and their talent just like he does with the ghouls. Tobias is not only talented but just an overall amazing guy and I can't wait for the next album :)))
Seems like Tobias has really been exercising his voice during these last few months. Don’t believe I’ve ever heard his lower range sound so good. The high notes have a ton of power now too 🤘🏻
If you listen to his work with Repugnant you can hear the deeper range. Many fans refer to this as his Mary Gore voice because he referred to himself by that name during that time of I remember correctly.
Papa IV sounds so dirty towards the end, so awesome. If he will be using that on the new album (the wait is killing me, gah), that will be the greatest thing ever.
@@wulf2863 No Avalanche is the best cover, if you disagree youre wrong because my word is law and personal opinions dont exist. And also because Avalanche is such a good cover is makes Ghost look incredible and amazing.
People can hate Ghost all they want but the man behind the paint & mask is a talented singer, musician. Tobias is dialed into every genre of rock/metal/pop. 🤘✌
Copia was such a sweetheart as papa though, i think tobias wanted him to be evil but the fans romanticised him so much lol. Maybe he will get his villain arc now though who knows
The power he puts out without much body movement gives me Count Dooku vibes. All poise, yet so much power masterfully controlled. Even the hand behind the back.
You mean, singing 90% of a stones song in a monotone that any asshole could match? And then the other 10% is some low level plebeian singing ability? What a disgrace to act as if the Stones never happened based on this pathetic cover attempt.
The stones are greatest band ever,they have played close to 50 millions fans ,world wide ,the stones definion of rock, roll ,this is a good band ,let's be serious this is a joke compare to the stones ,silly coment .
I really hope Papa IV is gonna end up being a darker version of his young self, cause this is honestly turning out to be my fave character of Tobias so far.
That could play out amazingly. The Cardinal had an almost childlike innocence and the inner struggle to try and keep Papa IV from taking that away as an underlying theme for the next album would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The simple fact that he does covers better than the original band is amazing that's why I love Tobias's band GHOST. No insult to the rolling stones at all.
His voice is so strong and clear I loved it! I think the mask is better than ever so the director's voice is even more clear! I just wished there was at least a ghoul or ghoulette. Just as I wished for enter sandman performance.
Tbh I wasn't really feeling it at the beginning but they had me by the end when Papa was belting it and now I have a bigger appreciation for the beginning and the whole buildup to the last verse. I honestly hope we'll get some of that on the upcoming Ghost album
Never really cared about this song when done by the Stones and Guns N Roses, but I'm feeling this one completely. Tobias does covers better than just about anybody. Ever. The man's a legend and a genius
This is from a Swedish game show, the point of all the songs featured is that they are supposed to be harder to guess for the contestants and therefore not played as the originals, and there are 2 clues in each song, hence the little number at the very end of this. I love this version of the song, it's awesome.
Man words cannot describe how excited I am for the next album. This sounds so good. Hope he applies the raw energy and anger at the end in the next album
Same. Maybe not the same as you, but for me they were the soundtrack to my liberation from Xtianity. That was years ago - I still get goosebumps when I listen to them. Tobias is an incredible human. 𖤐 Non Serviam! Zazas Zazas Nasatanadas Zazas! Ave Satanas! 𖤐
Sooo true. The earth is healing now that Ghost is back in business. Cannot wait for their next live performance. If you enjoyed this you must check out their Metallica Enter Sandman cover.🤘👏💜
At first I was like "yeah, well, this is different..." But then Papa showed me once more that he's a genius and my mind melted and my undergarments melted and I melted... It was marvelous.
@3:17 when the guitar flipped to Carol of the Bells, I got chills. With the energy of the rest of the song, it rang as a stunning allusion to the bridge in Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar. The layers that these artists put into their craft is amazing.
*COULDN'T AGREE MORE, MY FRIEND! I genuinely think Ghost are 1 of the absolute BEST bands on Earth right now!! 😁BTW R.I.P Charlie Watts of the Stones, in case you didn't know. Sorry 2 tell u that. 😢*
Got chills when he said "Or I'll lay your fucking soul to waste."
Me too.
Best part
Same here
Such a powerful addition. He MEANT that.
2:55 for those looking for it
tobias forge is one hell of a vocal mastermind… i swear he can do everything
Especially with the mask on its so good
no man, youre blinded fanboys. He is terribly horrible!
@@opressor9407 What the fuck?
I absolutely agree 💯!!!!
Only vocal??? Man is a musical genius. God level musical IQ
when i hear mick sing this it's like the devil is dropping hints at who he his. when papa sings it it's like a list of accomplishments.
Best comment ever!
@@ElegyMH I came here to also write best comment ever but you beat me to it. Dang.
True though! Mick's all coy about "guess my name", and Tobi's making it damn clear who he's supposed to be! The way he growls the "Call me Lucifer" bit is perfect.
Papa IV makes it clear that he is channeling the devil in this song.
What a good fucking comment
The fact he has never taken voice lessens... unreal. Sheer talent. He sounds better live. And beyond humble.
are you serious? does he never taken voice lessons?!
@@IlaryxghostNope. He's totally self-taught, vocally. Even more unbelievably, so was Freddie Mercury.
@@thing_under_the_stairsthat’s so incredible
I can’t really think of a good singer who needed to take voice lessons
That's two out of a 1000 reasons we love him🖤
I love that even though he isn't performing with his own band, he steps back at the end and appreciates the musicians and their talent just like he does with the ghouls. Tobias is not only talented but just an overall amazing guy and I can't wait for the next album :)))
Like the music all you want, but Tobias is a piece of shit.
@@Sthephyr12 youre delusional
Hellacopters are in my top 3 of bands from Sweden with Ghost and Mando Diao.
Papa is a really humble & down to Earth man.
666 likes this is perfect
The “Or I’ll lay your fucking soul to wasteeee” always gets me, Tobias is such a great vocalist
Seems like Tobias has really been exercising his voice during these last few months. Don’t believe I’ve ever heard his lower range sound so good. The high notes have a ton of power now too 🤘🏻
he used to sing in the death metal band Repugnant, you should check them out sometime :)
If you listen to his work with Repugnant you can hear the deeper range. Many fans refer to this as his Mary Gore voice because he referred to himself by that name during that time of I remember correctly.
I’m so grateful we got this, but I know, deep down, we all want Ghost to cover Don’t Fear The Reaper
That would be absolutely awesome, and I am not really a ghost fan even
Yes please!
I'd like to think that behind closed doors they already have
Hmmm sounds already like ghost but i am in
Yes please
If you didn’t love Cardinal Copia, you don’t deserve Papa IV.
He's Popia
I want to like that comment but its at 666 likes. So i'm gonna leave it there ;)
Copia was my favourite. And since the album is out, I love it. It's probably my favourite cover art ever, those details. Too beautiful.
If you didn't love Candy C, you don't deserve Frater Imperator
I desperately want this on an album. Would love a Ghost cover album
Ghost has 2 cover albums, “If You Have Ghost” and “Popestar”
@@Pickaxe_Muderer those are eps..I own them..but still they are really good
@@funnseeker8494 you know what I meant
Yessssss
Well that’s what your getting now on the 18th may it’s called phantomime 😂
The power he uses in this cover to get that grit literally brings tears to my eyes; what a world class Rockstar, man, Toby can do it all
Papa IV sounds so dirty towards the end, so awesome. If he will be using that on the new album (the wait is killing me, gah), that will be the greatest thing ever.
I was waiting for the part where he would eventually belt it out. When he did, I nearly fell out my chair! 🤣
Still so upset this isnt an official cover on spotify, this is easily their best cover. SO much better then Avalanche, so much emotion
The build up makes it amazing and great
If you have Ghosts is the ultimate Ghost cover.
Nope, if you have ghosts and it's a sin are the best
@@wulf2863 No Avalanche is the best cover, if you disagree youre wrong because my word is law and personal opinions dont exist. And also because Avalanche is such a good cover is makes Ghost look incredible and amazing.
@@wulf2863 If You Have Ghosts is so great because they took that song and completely put the Ghost treatment on it. Love it!
The talent is unreal. Unholy moly his voice gets me every time
he protec
he attac
but most importantly
papa emeritus is bacc
And in that jacket
papa's a snacc
@@neuralmute yas XD
Speak proper, shiznat
People can hate Ghost all they want but the man behind the paint & mask is a talented singer, musician. Tobias is dialed into every genre of rock/metal/pop. 🤘✌
He’s a damn genius.
People hate Ghost…? Poor, unfortunate souls.
Finally, after like 10 months we see papa again
He is not the same papa
@@mavrompeeee no hes better!
That's how long it took him to get back from hell just to sing us this song.
Feels good
And he's looking as lovely as he did back in March 💕
Papa knows how to pick his covers
can't wait for the next ghost era
evil papa arise!!
Copia was such a sweetheart as papa though, i think tobias wanted him to be evil but the fans romanticised him so much lol. Maybe he will get his villain arc now though who knows
“I’ll lay your fucking soul to waste”
Classic Papa. 🤘🏻💀
The sheer menace they added to this song is incredible. Papa IV fully intends the listener to know exactly who they’re dealing with and it shows.
This dude can do an amazing cover for Sympathy for the Devil, and then play Zombie Queen with a kazoo
I love him
that "waste" was GORGEOUS OMG
The power he puts out without much body movement gives me Count Dooku vibes. All poise, yet so much power masterfully controlled. Even the hand behind the back.
A Man of Wealth and Taste, indeed❤️🔥
You know someone is an amazing singer when he or she can pull off a high-pitched voice without changing facial expressions. Cardinal is mind-blowing 🔥
Well... He is wearing a mask.
@@rsteen78 yea man, I know it lol, it's just a joke
@@rsteen78 r/woosh
Ha I see what you did there 🤣
LOL (also, just say they lmao)
The symbiosis of Papas voice and the musical talent of The Hellacopters is absolutely unreal. Incredible performance!
His voice sounds sooo good!!! Ugh. Can't handle it.
Tobias taking the song and make it his own like the Stones never happened.
YES
i agree but because its the stones we cant say that, that would be disrespecting some of the founders of rock n roll 😂
You mean, singing 90% of a stones song in a monotone that any asshole could match? And then the other 10% is some low level plebeian singing ability? What a disgrace to act as if the Stones never happened based on this pathetic cover attempt.
The stones are greatest band ever,they have played close to 50 millions fans ,world wide ,the stones definion of rock, roll ,this is a good band ,let's be serious this is a joke compare to the stones ,silly coment .
This!
I love the Devil’s Music! 🤘🏻
This cover needs to be on Spotify immediately
I really hope Papa IV is gonna end up being a darker version of his young self, cause this is honestly turning out to be my fave character of Tobias so far.
That could play out amazingly. The Cardinal had an almost childlike innocence and the inner struggle to try and keep Papa IV from taking that away as an underlying theme for the next album would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I like the idea of this Papa being quiet and sister, like Dooku and Pinhead. Poise and power under a master's control giving him a quiet foreboding.
And he turned out to be the exact opposite.
Ugh i swear this man will be the death of me. Even after so long he still sounds so damn good!
he is literally so much better now
If I had a nickel for every time Papa Emeritus sung about the Kennedys dying I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice
I can't think of a better time for new Papa material than right now-- our world needs it. Excellent!
Yes I was thinking the exact same thing👹
Absolutely
Let’s be honest this is not the first time you watch this video 😌✊🏼 Tobias fingernails is such a great singer 🫶🏼
The simple fact that he does covers better than the original band is amazing that's why I love Tobias's band GHOST. No insult to the rolling stones at all.

It's the theatrics with this performance...no nonsense...sung with sincerity. Love it!.
I've been listening to this on TH-cam for month's, it needs to be on spotify 🙏
2:11 The moment where my soul left my body
"Anastasia SCREAMED in vain"
The power he commands when singing this gives me chills! What a masterpiece.
Never really cared about this song when done by the Stones and Guns N Roses, but I'm feeling this one completely. Tobias does covers better than just about anybody. Ever. The man's a legend and a genius
This is a a stones origin song written by mick and Keith stones version is the ultimate version, especily the live version get your Ya yas out.
This is from a Swedish game show, the point of all the songs featured is that they are supposed to be harder to guess for the contestants and therefore not played as the originals, and there are 2 clues in each song, hence the little number at the very end of this. I love this version of the song, it's awesome.
The scream at "Or I'll lay your fucking soul to waste!" That "Waste!" That gave me chills! Mary Goore wants out!🤘
Sweden at this point is showing off
Tobias Forge just fucking rocks at life.
I can't explain how much I love this man.
Pretty cool. I wonder what it would be like with the Ghoulettes in the background singing an eerie "woo-woo, woo-woo." Probably pretty dope.
This is the greatest thing ever
I LOVE HIS VOICE SO MUCH
Seeing Papa again after a hiatus is hard to describe he looks so fuckin badass and sounds as good as ever
Who wants a version of "Carol of the Bells" as done by Ghost and/or The Hellacopters?
Thought I was the only one who noticed they snuck that in there haha.
i need to stop coming back to this video
STOP THIS IS SO GOOD I CAN'T
One of the hosts of the show said right after the performance that he was starstuck over papa IV and that he is one of his idols :)
Still makes my hairs stand on end. A masterpiece in the true meaning of the word.
Dont know what I am more pumped for, A Tobias sighting or the fact he is playing with THE HELLACOPTERS!!!
Yeah, I was also like HELLACOPTERS!! Haven't heard anything from them in ages!
Man words cannot describe how excited I am for the next album. This sounds so good. Hope he applies the raw energy and anger at the end in the next album
I will never get over this performance. It’s so powerful. I absolutely love it!
Not to be greedy but... NEED MORE!!!
wish this was on spotify, i keep coming back to this video
same lol
Every move Papa makes is concise and well planned.
I cant Stop Listening to this. Iam so Happy to See He is alright and to See Papa again and hear His gorgeous voice.
i think ghost saved my life
Same. Maybe not the same as you, but for me they were the soundtrack to my liberation from Xtianity. That was years ago - I still get goosebumps when I listen to them. Tobias is an incredible human.
𖤐 Non Serviam! Zazas Zazas Nasatanadas Zazas! Ave Satanas! 𖤐

i need this on spotify so bad it's not even funny. i love this version so fucking much. his voice is amazing.
OMG Papa is so bad ass in this song. Absolutely beautiful.
now i want ghost recording this song on a album and play in their show
He is just amazing I am just begging for an album of all their covers that aren’t on music streaming platforms
they need to put this on an album im BEGGING
Papa, take my soul. It's yours.
Tobias is such an underated vocalist.
The energy we need in 2021 💜🤟👻
Sooo true. The earth is healing now that Ghost is back in business. Cannot wait for their next live performance. If you enjoyed this you must check out their Metallica Enter Sandman cover.🤘👏💜
That's not an easy song to cover and do it well. They definitely did a good job
At first I was like "yeah, well, this is different..." But then Papa showed me once more that he's a genius and my mind melted and my undergarments melted and I melted... It was marvelous.
I want to appreciate the amazing camera work as well! and the lighting! WOW
A very good day for us ghost fans! So much greatness, followed by many questions. Aftetall... *this is what Ghost does!* 🤘🏻
Genius! Great vocal melodies…. I felt an Andy Williams ‘speak softly Love’ vibe and melancholic tone. …… love, love,love. Ghost can do no wrong.
Damn his voice is so good is this cover. I’m now gonna listen to this 24/7
From 2:12 onwards😭😭 I love this man so much he's so talented
What a fucking strong finish, god damn.
The last half of the song oh my satan hope the new album sounds like that
Goose bumps . Every . Single . Time .
Wow. So much Swedish rock legacy on this one stage! Nicke. Dregen. Papa. KICK ASS PERFORMANCE!
2:28 he sounds AMAZING 🔥
Totalmente de acuerdo 😍😎
It's like, this man can turn any song into a whole new song! I suggest you listen to his 'Here comes the sun' cover. It's amazing
Ghost's "Here Comes The Sun" is the perfect goth summer anthem.
I love it so much.
Here comes the sun is so good
I'm so starved for Ghost and Papa IV I've played this on repeat for two days so far
I love the fact that this is clearly not Cardinal Copia anymore. Papa Emeritus IV, everyone!
Tobias absolutely slayed, it makes me wonder how it could sound without the mask and recorded
still can’t get enough of this
Ghost really need to add this to an album! I love it 🤘🖤
I need a full studio version of this cover
Papa IV is deliciously creepy in this performance and I adore the cover. Superb! 🖤
Wow Tobias’ vocals are amazing in this!
He looks and Sounds GREAT!, I CANNOT wait for more!
*We're not Worthy! We're not worthy!*
Tobias please include this in the next EP. PLEASE.
@3:17 when the guitar flipped to Carol of the Bells, I got chills. With the energy of the rest of the song, it rang as a stunning allusion to the bridge in Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar. The layers that these artists put into their craft is amazing.
Somehow you made a Rolling Stones cover that was BETTER THAN THE ROLLING STONES. This was incredible.
*COULDN'T AGREE MORE, MY FRIEND! I genuinely think Ghost are 1 of the absolute BEST bands on Earth right now!! 😁BTW R.I.P Charlie Watts of the Stones, in case you didn't know. Sorry 2 tell u that. 😢*
Nah nobody beats the stones. Stones smokes these guys ,Ya yas but thiis is good to.
It started off and I was like "meh"
The last minute and a half restored my faith though, lol
How accurate
I mean, Faith IS his, after all
Same. Then going back it makes me like the build up to the end so much more.
one of the best covers I ever heard! Tobias - Papa IV is an absolute rockstar!
Feels damn good to hear that voice again! Can't wait for his new stuff
