OMG! Thank you, thank you, Thank you!!! I've been following LILIAC since March 2019 and have been wanting Songs and Thongs to react to this Track, You guys have made this OLD MAN very happy, Metal/Rock has been my life, I was one of the 350,000 that attended the California Jam back in 1978 - "Long Live Melody! The Queen of Rock!!!"
Time for part two of this era. They covered Enter Sandman at the same studio, and I think is their largest viral video to date, with around 10M views on YT alone. This one hits as hard, if not harder than the Trooper. Abigail beats them skins like they broke in the house, and stole the cat.
Absolutely incredible. Never seen this before. Nailed it. Melody has one of the best voices in rock. Such a talented family... and really cool and down to earth too.
Sharlene, gorgeous as ever! I am so glad that you have finally looked so at this one! Ethan kicks some serious butt on this my one as he shreds that solo! They were all so young then! Liliac and Songs and Things... Two of my favorite channels on YT!
I'm surprised you two haven't done this one yet. But I'm glad you are finally seeing where Ethan kicks major butt!! I hope you check out their new original LIVE "Madness" and Vinny Appice Sabbath Nights ft Melody doing "Country Girl" Black Sabbath cover.
I just tried to find a decent video of their new original Madness and this is why I can't stand audience vids, they are so subpar. I hardly ever posted a LIVE Scorpions video on my page cuz of that. So as far as Madness, I am hoping we can get a really good professional video.
I never get tired of watching Ethan shred. I kind of miss the days with Melody on bass and would really have loved to Ethan progress more into a dual lead with Sam.
Agreed, Melody is a helluva bass player and it was so cool watching her play like that and still give killer vocals. I'm missing that element in their new performances, they had a garage band grittiness back then and I miss it.
That wasn't "little brother stand in the corner play a few notes and shake your head" that little man played a sic guitar solo... and now he plays bass. Great reaction yo two. xoxoxox
I'm glad you finally got to see Ethan shred the guitar and he was 11 at the time , please do PARANOID and ENTER SANDMAN or WILD THING when Melody was 14 there's still lot's of playlist to react to . Fang4life RORH
Iron Maiden was my absolute Favorite band growing up. when i saw this video on there You tube channel it blew me away . Its all thanks to Harry and Sharlene reacting to Liliac's Nothing video that got me interested it them .
Hey you two, this is a FANG Favorite. Iron Maidens The Trooper! Reason it's a Favorite is Ethans solo. He was around 12 and Justin around 10. When they were on the World's Best show they were going to play Crazy Train first. The network thought they'd say yes so they built a beautiful Crazy Train set. Then Sharon I guess said no. So, Iron Maiden stepped up and gave them permission to play the Trooper. So they played The Trooper on a Crazy Train set. Rock and Roll! During competition Justin was the youngest at 10 playing in front of TV and a large audience. Have a safe move with your family. Till next Liliac. Peace. Stay safe. God Speed. FANG 4 LIFE! RORH 🤘 🦇
Wow! I would have thought you would have known this was an Iron Maiden cover. To be honest, I have never heard the original version myself and don't need to- I have the Liliac version!
Cannot wait for your reaction to Liliac featuring Mercury Cross doing If I Close My Eyes! Oh my God! Epic! Melody and Mercury..please do soon! RORH🤘🤘🤘🤘
I'm so glad you finally did a Reaction on Trooper (by Iron Maiden originally), Knew you would enjoy it. And Ethan shredding, dual Solo! When I first saw it it was Like Damm
I've been following Liliac since Crazy Train days. These kids are impressive. Glad they are making their own career and wish them all the best. They have put in a lot of years training and busking. Good for them!
What's funny about Liliac is that if you do a deep dive in their channel, their oldest videos are pop songs, mostly covers, with Sam singing lead and sometimes with Abigail and Melody as his backing singers and/or dancers. While I haven't heard them say anything official along these lines, I believe that Melody got old enough to where her voice started to get noticed and things were shifted to what you see in this video. I'm sure you know this by now, but "The Trooper" is an Iron Maiden cover. It's one of their more popular songs and is the main song I used to strengthen my fingering technique on the bass when I was just starting out. Nemophila did a great cover of it, too.
Awesome! Here is a change... check out Bloodywood- Indian folk metal. 1-Gaddaar 2-Yaad 3-Endurant and many more of them. 4-Aaj and many more. Pick your choice!
I really love your reactions. Hope you have a great move. Once you get set back up, I would love to see you react to ever dream by nightwish, live at Wacken of course. Lol. My favorite band is nightwish with kiss and liliac a close second. 💖. Love you both.
With the possible exception of Rainbow in the Dark (they're great at Dio!) This is probably my favorite early cover. Everything about is exceptional, but the guitar solo especially.Great reaction! Looking forward to the interview!
I’ve never met a metal fan who didn’t know The Trooper. Maybe Iron Maiden wasn’t big in South Africa? The internet is a nice reminder that it’s a big world with different experiences out side where one lives. Really good reaction too! As always
They released a new video from Vinnie apice sabbath knights featuring melody cristea of liliac singing dio's country girl it's fire 🔥hope they are going to make a video of their newest song " madness" it is awesome
For a family band that started out singing pop songs as kids; what happened to them was Melody. She discovered Ronnie James Dio at the age of 15 and lost Her mind. She kicked Ethan off rythem guitar sat Him down and taught Him all the base lines to their songs. That way, SHE could be free to express herself physically in her singing. And this is what labeled Her the TROUBLE MAKER of the group. Best thing SHE EVER DID HANDS 👇.
The other band that you mentioned was Crooked X out of Oklahoma playing Adrenaline (original song). They were playing in the half pipe at the X Games...they were the only band invited. Sadly their lead guitarist died of a medical problem at 16 years old and the band broke up. Their ranges in age were 16 to 11. They did a European tour opening for Kiss.
Check out "Aldious" with Maki Oyama "In This World" 2021. Another all girl Japanese band. The drummer runs a three bass kit and the bass player is so awesome.
Liliac are a familyband, and I think Melody the vocalist was 15 yesrs old here. You should check the video from where they were discovered on the show Worlds Best when they covered Rainbow In The Dark by Dio.
This is just my humble opinion. The band needs to put the bass guitar back into Melonie's hands more often. Then put Ethan back on rhythm guitar. Many songs required a rhythm and a lead guitar in order to do a great cover, especially when playing LIVE. The Trooper is a perfect example when the band plays Metallica's Enter Sandman. In their cover video, Melanie is on BASS and Ethan is on Rhythm Guitar, Sam is on lead. They've played this live with Melanie as the "FRONT WOMAN. with Etan playing bass, and the song sounds FLAT. Hey, Liliac, either put the bass back into Melonie's hands when the song requires it or hire a bass player. Just for reference's sake, Metalica has two guitarists. Two guitarists are a MUST when playing Metallica songs.
Hey Brad, yes we do and so frustrating that we couldn't react to it yet 😊 we moved to our new home last week so still busy unpacking and getting our workspace sorted and then we will do a reaction. Can't wait to check it out 😁😁
Amazing reaction my friends...I have seen your reactions to Dimash, the best male singer of the world...But now I ask you: Have you seen the best female singer of the world?...The passion and dedication when Dimash is performing a song can only be compared with the person who has influenced him to sing leaving everything on stage: His idol, the queen, the incomparable Lara Fabian...Lara is the best female singer and performer of the world...She is a lyric soprano with a amazing vocal range and incredible breath control, which is one of the things that Dimash admires the most about Lara...She speaks 5 languages and sings like in 12 languages....That's why she is the inspiration for Dimash and several singers around the world...You can see on UA-cam covers of her songs made by singers of the stature of: Dimash, Floor Jansen, Diana Navarro, Morissette Amon, Gabriel Henrique, Katrina Velarde, Cakra Khan and others...Please react to her songs, all masterpieces, in LIVE versions, because Lara is more impressive when she sings live, so you can see why she is the idol of Dimash...Try to do it in this order and almost all songs are from the same Lara’s concert “From Lara With Love” in Montreal 1999, one of her best works: 1) Je Suis Malade (Singing in French)...2) Caruso (Singing in Italian)...3) Je T'AIME (2002 Live version in Paris Singing in French)...4) Perdere L'Amore (1999 Live version Singing in Italian)...5) Adagio (1999 Live version singing in english)...6) Broken Vow (1999 Live version singing in English)...7) You are Not From Here (1999 Live version singing in English)...8) Quédate (1999 Live version singing in Spanish)....9) Ti Amo Cosi (2019 Live version Singing a trío with Dimash and Aida Garifullina)....I hope to see you first reaction soon and if you don't mind, I'd like you to mention me as the person who recommended reacting to Lara, but if you don't want to, that's fine...
I have stopped listening and following Liliac because of the drastic change in their appearance... Melody and Sam have both cut all their hair off... Sam looks more like one of the back street boys and Melody has changed from total rock star to wearing shiny fairy/butterfly costumes and looks like her new best friends are Barbie and Ken...it’s like the Beatles at the pinnacle of their career switching to cowboy attire...I’m just broken...😫😫😫
Are you kidding me! I thought they were a rock/ metal band not fashion icons. It's about the music not what their wearing or their hair which I believe they donated for cancer. And have you seen some of outfits rock stars have worn over the years, Queen and Kiss. I'm really sorry that you feel so strong about the stuff that shouldn't matter that your giving up on them.
And how long would you listen to Metallica or Black Sabbath if the all of the sudden cut all their hair and dressed like Elton John... ya... that’s what I thought...I was a fan of the original Liliac...not Liliac 2.0...I’m wondering if their next cover will be Barbara Streisand’s “The Way We Were”...??? So very sad... they really were on the path to success...
@@rachaelpacker5526 I would still listen to them so long as they were putting out good music if I was a true fan which in Liliac's case they still are. Some people put too much emphasis on looks and it's shallow.
This is one of my favorite songs of theirs to see reactions to because people are usually so surprised that Ethan is an actual guitarist.
most of the better bassists are......

Yeah. But did you see the number of dents in the skins. I think she hits too hard. Ha! Ha!
She beats the hell out of those drum's
This is one of my favorite ones. They did Iron Maiden proud. 👏 👏 👏
Great to see you reacting to a Liliac “oldie” - with Liliac they are of course all “goodies”! Looking forward to your interview. RORH!
Absolutely incredible. Never seen this before. Nailed it. Melody has one of the best voices in rock. Such a talented family... and really cool and down to earth too.
Cool and Abigail was smokin' hot 4 years ago too and still is .Melody has the quintessential rock voice.. Liliac should be headliners.

I loved that The Wolf HunterZ reaction as well. Their faces were priceless.
Got to see LILIAC for the second time in Houston. They played and sang their hearts out, so good!

Hope ya'll get the interview. In the meantime Liliac- Enter Sandman, Paranoid, Mystery reactions next.
