Peter Steele has passed away passed away. I really enjoy your reviews I'm a huge Iron Maiden fan and teachings about how the voice works. You do great work.
doesnt understand how goth and romance can co-exist, is aware of vampires lol. i know you put it together, but i lol'd. try she wants revenge with "tear you apart" for a similar vibe. sexy but haunting and kind of dangerous.
I looove you!!!!. I am in my 60's and was soul,northern soul, motown girl growing up. Raised on Top of the Pops (TOTP) in UK. I got into opera in my 20's as my mum loved opera. Now I am getting older my musical tastes are changing. I watched couple of voice teachers reacting, but I love your channel as you are teaching me about music as well the voice. I am getting to understand and appreciate metal for what it is, and not just a lot of noise as I felt when I was younger. I have watched a couple of video's on your performances. I was surprised at you voice (good surprise. Your voice is amazing).
You must do a reaction to Be My Druidess. It is much more interesting.
😉😉ua-cam.com/video/ujsUCqe-QIk/v-deo.html
you forgot that he was also a huge racist......very..... sexy
God, how many pop stars do we need to *sacrifice* to bring Peter back?
I would do it.
All of them i guess. 🤣🤣
a thousand a day.
@@platinumnitrocharge4218 I'm reasonably sure that 100% of the worlds pop stars wouldnt be worth 3 curly hairs of this god-man.
All of them, we need to sacrifice all of them.
Imagine a dead guy being 10,000% better at seducing women than you are ever going to be while being alive
Yeah well I been with his side chick for a couple of years... and yes I was inadequate compared to him. Lol
No need to imagine... 😶
it's the height and muscle
Big F............... but it's so true.
🤣🤣🤣
Well she was put under the Peter Steele spell quite quickly 🖤💚
Instantly lmao.
Been gone the better part of 15 years and he's still attracting the goils lol... He was always larger than life. ..
You're still the man Pete...and will always ALWAYS be...and yes sir you were More than good enough.
@@courtneycch8857 Still can't believe it's been 13 years, feels like yesterday.
@@courtneycch8857I’m a lesbian and he has me swooning
Yup She Sure Was LOL
@@Lunar04503 Straight male here and I have to admit that it's difficult not to feel the "Steele tickle"
From What I understand about Pete, is he was a hopeless romantic. He literally smothered girls with his love and compassion which ended up with them leaving him. So this song is actually bearing his soul of being desperate for the affection of a woman and to actually love him back.
Yes. Johnny said when he fell, he fell hard. Some women find that to be a turn off (the dumb young ones, of course!).😂 He needed someone who fell in love with his soul, not his persona. He never found that. Not to mention I think he was kind of a firecracker to handle, which is typical for artists. The right brain dominance makes them eccentric and unpredictable.
Apparently Peter had a really intense relationship end badly. I think (I could be wrong.) this is the woman who was sort of flirting with some guy and Peter assaulted him and got himself sent to Rikers. Again, I'm not entirely sure if this was the reason, but I know he had a relationship end badly and it affected him for a long time. She is actually in the dvd video with the band's commentary. They don't speak kindly of her.
@@_msthings_ He cheated on her. And she cheated on him. Both were at fault. Peter couldn’t take it that she left him for another guy. That’s why he assaulted him.
@@waterhorse5199 OK. I see. Like I said, I wasn't sure of all the details. Thanks for filling me in.
@@_msthings_ Sure! Peter was quite a playboy. That’s partly why he could never maintain a healthy relationship.
His accent comes from an exotic land known as “Brooklyn”.
"he likes goils" ;)
LOL
yes but his heritage is eastern european, not too far away from Transylvania. :P
Brooklyvania. His real name is Petrus Ratajczyk
@@briancollis1809 Goils are noice🤘
No woman can resist Peter Steele's charm muhaha
Aha! Shred, nice to see you here. Wise words
Woman, man, inanimate object... if Peter's voice doesn't make you feel things I don't know what could.
Stay evil my dude
It's not just women, trust me.
LOL. My wife tapped my shoulder at a Type-O Concert at Pop's in Sauget, IL. She was like... "I found my hall pass." I was like... "I get it."
On the other hand, I did the same to her about five episodes in to the Charismatic Voice. ;-) She was like, "I get it."
The line "Am I good enough for you" is absolutely Peter bearing his soul. It's some of the most honest singing that any vocalist, of any musical style, has ever done.
He was taken too f***ing soon.
I am forever in love with watching people experience type o negative for the first time.
" I just wish I could live in a place where Autumn never ended".
-Peter Steele (Jan 4, 1962 - April 14, 2010).
Rest in peace, Green Man. The Type O family loves you always & forever.
Amen.
I wasn't expecting a comment on this channel to make me a little teary eyed.
Pete was a God amongst mortal men.
Same here.. I have Type O Negative blood and Ive seen them 3x live.. All I need is Autumn , Type O on the Hi-fi and nice cup of coffee with my wake n bake
@@quikhonda I never got the chance to see them live. My parents would never let me go to concerts with my "dirtbag" friends. The only thing I can do is keep listening to their music and keep introducing them to younger generations.
Stay negative my friend 🤘
Watching her get so flustered by him is so entertaining. 😂
Absolutely giddy. LOL
Imagine if she heard Carnivore? Lol
I guess we shouldn't tell her that he was on the cover of playgirl.
honestly : looks so fake and irritating to me, such bulls@it, my two cents
why you want to analize a Type Onegative song, please - always been music for misfits, always
@@SpettroFamily there's nothing fake about her reactions. Watch her older videos she's passionate about music she pays attention to each and every sound. That's how she normally reacts.
Peter is turning her on from beyond the grave, over 10 years since he passed. What a legend
Peter was a great guy. Actually had a hell of a sense of humor. RIP Pete
nihilistic humour beyond repair !
Peter is still seducing from beyond the grave, looks like.
because OF COURSE he is. hahaha
Insert self deprecating joke that Pete would.
Fits with the goth/metal motif. And the cool thing is she can talk shop WHILE gushing over him at the same time. Something Peter would get a kick out of i believe.
Oh he never stopped!
He will, always💚🖤💚
Still seducing the ladies from the grave. RIP Peter, we miss you.
#CreepyGreenLight
haha
what a guy
We surely miss Peter. So glad I was lucky enough to see Typo play live once, long time ago in the 90's.
I´m 44 and still have goosebumps when listening to this song. It´s a masterpiece.
Calma, João, olha esse coração...
@@Soulflytribe04 De boa. Caminhada todo dia, exercícios e a breja de leve no fds.
💯
Same here....
I love her.
She reviews metal and explains everything so damn well.
A whould done it much better but am not a pretty Girl
@@truthvikingborz1599 I'd love to watch and listen to you explain the vocals 🙂
@@galadrielwoods2332 Ok how do a upploud a Video to you
@@galadrielwoods2332 You are Good ,but a am better spes if its TYPE O
Most underrated metal band of all time. Their music was pure genius, even when they were being humorous. TON understood the power of melody, depth, imagery, and emotion.
and absurd irony. I love how their whole schtick was like performance artist playing a goth metal band ironically their entire career like some elaborate joke that kinda went off the rails and accidentally got popular. if you haven't seen it yet, find their tour mockumentary/documentary After Dark from 1998, it's hilarious!
@@PiotrTheGreat Yes. Agreed. I own a copy of the documentary you speak of, as well. Classic TON humor.
I miss his voice....
The idea of tacking thrash metal and slowing it down is so ingenious
@@ashleymyers2779 If you play B. Spears' "Oops I did it again" at half-speed... legit sounds like Steele singing.
One of my new favorite things is watching women slowly fall in love with Peter while watching "Love You to Death"
It really is one of the greatest songs ever. Lush, haunting, melody for days, and just a unique package.
Hopefully she reacts to Race War by Carnivore. She will surely fall in love with him to that tune.
Kenny the guitarist said Peter wrote this record so he could meet more women.
@@philiom7724 Did he need help meeting women?
Imagine how many women slept with him because of October Rust lol
In the album version of "Haunted", Peter Steele sings "I hate the morning" in 3 different octaves. It's given me goosebumps for the past 20 years!
That low note has always blown my mind. Same with Nettie.
I'm also 6'8" but my voice is nowhere so deep as Peters. AAah!! Something must be wrong with my "vocal tract"! ^^
You just listed my favorite part(s) from OR. It's DISTURBING how amazing that part is. It's so f^cking good!
He goes lower in Be My Druidess. I can sing Haunted, I can’t reach the low notes in Be My Druidess, it’s crazy he was able to sing those notes without sounding off pitch
Haunted is my absolute most favorite song by them. The song gives me goosebumps and makes me tear up every single time I listen to it, I also got lyrics from it as a TON tribute tattoo. Such a beautiful song, Hauntingly beautiful.
Type O's sadly small discography is something I can listen to over and over. I never get tired of the whole experience their music gives you.
Considering the length of the albums, it's not that small. TON albums are THICC
Nobody will ever replace Peter. However, if you love him, i implore you to give October Noir a try
@@alabamaarrowhead I gave them a try, their original material is bad, and their TON covers don't improve the originals. Pointless band that TON fans should stop referencing. Just listen to TON.
It's not really small. In comparison, a similar band Acid Bath only had 2 albums before disbanding.
I believe the OP said "sadly small" considering Peter died young and it's small compared to what could have been. @@pixiv2914
Steele was, as an old friend used to say, "A goth chick's Barry White."
Bass baritone voice
Peter Steele is/was EVERY girl’s goth dream. I’m still obsessed with him 11 years after his death.
boys like him too 🙋♂️
I used him to get some girls for sure, back in the 90’s!
My aunt told me I look like him the other day, now I'm gonna walk around thinking I'm actually hot for like a week.
@@nateisnobody5041 i do see a resemblance, based on your profile picture. my advice: stop belittling yourself and for once see yourself for who you really are - a hot individual.
go tiger 🐯 roaarr
@@almapenada8528 Aww, thanks ☺️
The pitch bends you're hearing is actually the keyboardist Josh silver. He's fucking incredible and there's alot of keyboard parts in their music people mistake for the guitar
Peter Steele had the most unique voice. Amazing range. Never will be another like him.
Peter’s use of rolled r’s was like a fifth member of the band.
Pick slides and feedback. They owned it.
@@b.carter1460 there was a three month stretch in 96-97 when October Rust was the only thing I listened to
@@palmerlp I had the great opportunity to see them in 96 in a small nightclub the stage was only 2ft tall real low ceilings about 350 ppl, it was awesome I'll never forget it! 6' 2" and 225 lbs and it was the first time i crowd surfed i ended up on stage and Peter dwarfed me.
@@b.carter1460 they do not own feedback. or pick slides
Its the same kind of -get the panties of of them- trick, like scottish accent for example, Mr.Connery. ill bet there aint many female who do not get bit "moist" when they hear that... ;)
Am I the only one who gets emotional watching this, and wishing he was still alive?
Always my ninja, Always
He is missed 💔
Right there with you…RIP green man 💚😭
Yes. Sure. Nobody else has any feelings or misses him.
/eyeroll
Nope. Not at all. This song always makes me cry
I once saw them live at an outdoor festival, and every time he hit a low note the ground rumbled. God i miss Type O 💚
That’s so cool. 💚🖤💚🖤💚🖤
I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned in the comments, this is just the shortened version of the song, probably for the sake of making a music video, a bunch of their songs were shortened that have videos. This was really fun to watch, hope you've listened to more of them since!
Yes, this is a radio/video edit... I've always loved the full version so much more!
@@BulletChops Agreed. The full version is so great.
"I have been spoiled by metal." This is the best comment I have ever heard. October Rust is a master work by this band.
october rust is their second worst for me. it's an amazing album though. slow deep and hard is my favorite.
Love October rust, especially if you listen Lycia - A day in the Stark Corner after it.
Don't forget the awesome album title least of worst! LOL my mom saw that and tried to ask me what it meant and for some odd reason she couldn't understand the concept.
@@robloxcoolboy4724 I agree that slow deep and hard was their best, in my own humble opinion. However, October rust was the end result of the build up to their final, polished sound. Production and musicianship on this album where some of the best from any metal band I've ever heard.
I think BK is better, less polished with more edge and less layers.
Peter was a friend of mine, I miss him so much. One of the most talented, generous and funny people EVER. My band Otto's Daughter did a mini tour opening for Typo Negative and Celtic Frost, one of the greatest memories and times of my life!!! Love that you picked them!!! ;)
I feel like people don't talk about how funny he was. The guy had a great sense of humor for sure
Thank you for sharing Jacqueline. Peter’s voice accompanied me through many phases of my life. I was privileged to be able to see ToN every Halloween for a few years. Shortly thereafter he passed. His voice is timeless, especially combined with the instrumentation of ToN.
I never met Peter...but I miss him every damn day
I saw you all play together at The Hard rock Cafe in Anaheim outside Disneyland. It was fun to watch all the reactions of the people there for Disney look at the people hanging out before the show in all their goth attire. One of my all time favorite concerts.
@@neilpatrickhairless I've met him before, and he was super friendly. Egads though, it felt weird shaking his hand. I'm 5'5 and 145 lbs., and his hand was the size of my chest! His hands were like fucking frying pans! :-p
The band said in many interviews that Peter wrote much of October Rust to seduce more women. They said it was his "pimp record." Nice to see it's still working after all these years.
It's always the same formula but I never get tired of it:
Reactor watches this video
Reactor falls in mad, sweeping, passionate love with Peter Steele and melts into a puddle of human
I can't stop smiling
The day that Peter Steele died was a sad day for music.
twice.....at least . The man , the myth , the ........whatever the f@#cking awesome . Tragedy doesn't cover it , and he would be aware of that .
yes it was, I actually wrote a song about it. He was a great friend and will be missed dearly. Gone way too soon ;(
The only artist I've ever broken down over when I heard the news. I will always remember vividly where I was and what I was doing when I heard.
@@shanesigmund8565 I saw the news headline while I was at work on lunch and it pretty much wrecked the rest of my day. RIP Peter Steele
I always hoped for a Steele / Abbott Brothers project. Always felt they could've made some serious magic together.
He is not only the vocalist and bassist, but also the composer of all their music. RIP Peter Steele🔥❤️
I think he wrote everything and the lyrics are all his.
I'm pretty sure Josh silver composed a lot of their music
@@shawnk7832 that's what OP meant when they said "composer of ALL their music..."
If I’m not mistaken, October Rust was the only album written solely by Peter. The ones that followed were a collaborative effort amongst the whole band. Kenny and Johnny said when Peter was struggling with substance abuse and depression, they literally were going to the studio and putting songs together as they went along. It was like pulling teeth because Peter was not in a good head space.
@@waterhorse5199first album he wrote all of it most of it was left over from carnivore
It really made me smile seeing the respect and truthfulness in what you had to say about Peter steele and the band, This song was Very personal for him , hurts thinking about the pain he went through and the emotions involved in Love you to death is.....WOW, still my fav song & band too this day. Like so many others we was there since the beginning and the end. Peter Steele may he RIP, also 2 all you younger fans your Awesome, atleast the music will never die because of all of you.
Aw, what a sweet message. I loved the ending, music really does live on through fans.
I hear 10 seconds of this song after not hearing it for a while, and immediately have tears rolling down my face. He had such a captivating presence in every form possible. Type O Negative was always a go to in high school in the 90s to lay in my floor with the Xmas lights on and veg out for hours.
"Am I good enough, for you?" is soul-crushing to me. One of the best legacies Peter left us is him daring to speak about fragile and intimate feelings very explicitly, especially in a tough music environment like rock/metal. (Not unlike Devin actually.) This dude fought a lot of inner and outer demons, RIP Peter, your work remains important to many.
This!!!
His music continues to teach people to this day.
Agreed! All the layers and flavors of being human are in the music.
Peter is sorely missed, by so many. This song in particular, shows that you can be a "manly man", yet still allow your vulnerability to be seen. RIP Peter Steele. 🖤
I was so sad when I heard about his passing.
Wolf Moon is another fantastic Type O song that needs more reaction. They are masters of atmosphere.
Yesss. Love this track. 💚
Same with Haunted. The "I hate the morning" part. Best headphone record since Floyd hung it up.
Tied for my favorite song of all time
Wolf Moon is fucking incredible.
Most definitely
It is so pleasant to see your strings being played. Peter GOT YOU. As he did me too. One of the best songs ever!
This guy was an enigma. He had a machismo that commanded respect, but was also so big and intimidating that he could get away with being sensitive and vulnerable. I mean, would _you_ mess with him?
That openness resonated with a lot of people in a genre of music that tends to lean in to the tough exterior. I mean the guy could sing like an angel ( _and_ like a demon.) Which goes to show, we're all kind of a wonderfully messy blend of strong and weak, bold and timid, powerful and fragile -- but most of us are too scared to show it. When someone comes along and dares to be genuine, it's pretty remarkable.
Well. This whole experience woke up some old feelings.
People have their Christmas albums, summer and party playlists. When the leaves fall, and the wind gives a chill of late autumn, I listened to October Rust.
Hey, TON wrote a Christmas song, and covered a Summer song, and 'Who Will Save The Sane' is kind of a party song. It's a weird party. Shit, they wrote a Valentine's day song too. There's probably an Easter or Labor day song somewhere out there too.
Agreed, but I listen to BK and SD&H year round, as they are the true master works of TON imo.
Check out the tribute band, Stereo Type O Negative doing a cover of “Last Christmas”!
Word. Been busting these guys out every fall for years. I even put green bulbs in the outside lights
That is great!!
Her first reaction to seeing Peter Steele? The same reaction to ANYONE seeing Peter Steele for the first time. He is a god and is a musical gift to this mortal plain.
This is their best song, IMHO, assuming you can pick one. It’s so deep. It’s perfection, the mixture of seduction, violence, like you said, and deep, deep, longing for worthiness. Peter added that vampirish accent on purpose. His speaking voice was all NYC. He was the epitome of goth romanticism. They hit like a hammer when Bloody Kisses came out in 1993. I never saw them live, which is one of my biggest musical regrets. RIP Green Man, you’re missed. 💚
I love how emotional peter was, such a huge guy with such a big heart, wish all men were like him... rip you big teddy bear ❤
October rust is a legendary album. The whole thing is a master work.
damn straight
Couldn’t have put it better myself!
Yes sir!!
Bad Ground is the best track on that album
My first encounter with type o negative...good orginal album bloody kisses from some girl i agree october rust is really master work
"Nettie," a song that he wrote about his mother, shows his incredible, multiple octave vocal range.
Also showcases the lowest note in his voice
That song has been in my head for the last two weeks.
That is a great suggestion too
Nettie is one of my favorites. Miss the Green Man!
My favorite Type O song by far. So very underrated
I saw Type O Negative live one day, and the sound was so deep and amazing it puts you in a trance. RIP, Peter.
As soon as he opened his mouth, she was lost. As we all were. Rest in Peace, Green Man
Peter was a fascinating person. He just had that strange presence that's hard to describe. At first glance somewhat imposing. Very tall, massive figure. Wide shoulders, athletic. Facial features akin to those of a mythological god chiseled out of marble. Absolutely oozing charisma. Intelligent, soft spoken. And that voice.
“Like the big bad wolf”
Yeah… being a 6’8” Goth will do that
Josh Silver, Kenny Hickey, and Johnny Kelly- we love you guys. TON would not be what it was if different people played the instruments. The Drab Four was pure magic.
Josh is my favorite rock keyboardist. I was lucky enough to chat with him years ago about non-musical things. Kenny's singing and excellent guitar riffs along with Josh's great keyboards definitely added so much to TON...
My wife and I got married back in 2001. We made love all night with this song on repeat
Life goals right there, my man.
Awesome ❤
I too did love to this guy's wife all night with this song on repeat.
omg
I got high on air dusters and spanked it to this song all night
She gets it, she understands him and loves him, of course, like everyone does when they hear Peter sing.
I so agree with you
One NEVER forgets the first time they heard this masterpiece
I never will. One of the most beautiful nights of my life.
An early summer night, the kind with those cool breezes...
I got hold of the CD back when it came out, and when I first heard Love You To Death, I was hooked.
THAT was my introduction to Type O Negative.
neverrr
I heard it from a trailer to a video game called Blood a long time ago and I just had to look it up, been a fan Type O fan since
I love watching her reaction to his voice and vocal range. She melts in her chair. Just imagine if they would've met each other.
Yeah, she probably would've become the subject of some new songs.
He was my dream guy, I was crushed when he died. He's still alive to me though. Peter is a musical treasure. ❤
gothic and romantic go together because that’s a huge theme in gothic music
There's a reason that every time he sung a note, goth girl's panties instantly dropped. Hell, mine did and I'm a heterosexual male!
Lmao!!
lmmfao
How many copies of his Playgirl issue did you buy? =oD
@@MrSkyblu1 I'm sorry but what... I need to find a copy of that.
Not any more you're not.
Tomorrow is 14 years to day since Peter left us and I'm still listening to his songs. I'm going back to my yonger years when I was walking to high school and university with my walkman in the pocket and Type O Negative cassetes in my backpack listening to them all the time. Please do more deep dives with this band.
BEHOLD! Peter's powers....on full display. love it...
Despite all that moody, dark atmosphere in their songs, Peter was one of the funniest guys you could imagine, he could make everyone around laughing with tears.
He was a rascal, with a very dark sense of humor, but a big, big heart for his friends, band mates and fans.
He battled with addictions a lot and tragically after he was sober, he died. Not of drugs, but very big guys like Peter are always prone to various health problems.
RIP Green Man, I still miss you.
Pete couldn't be held responsible for what women do when he starts singing.
I used to go see them at this little Club in Rhode Island call the Palladium back in the late 90s and early 2000s and they were some of the best concerts I've ever been to, his voice still gives me the chills
I obviously know this song well but watching your reaction and "breakdown" of this makes me appreciate what a damn masterpiece this was!!!!
Peter Steele was a Juggernaut of a man. Stood like 13 feet tall and built like a Norse God, had an incredible vocal range and very talented bass player too. Never met him in real life, but I've always heard he was very humble and kind to everyone and loved his mom.
Also had a 12 inch unit. dude had it all
Yes .... the play girl pictures lol
@@Thrace33. Yup. He said he was only ever ashamed of doing it when he found out the largest majority of readers, were men lol.
“People always ask ne.. Peter, why do you play bass with one hand. Well, let me tell you, with a face like mine, you learn to do alot of things with one hand.....”. -Peter Steel, Allentown, circa ‘95/96. 😂
yes
"This song is too short!" Def check out the album version: it has an additional minute and a half and really helps the whole piece feel more complete.
THIS. Finally. I definitely had to scroll too much to find this comment.
💯
"Christian Woman" is my favourite Track. You have to try the song if you don't know it yet. But please the album version. It goes longer and is even more diverse. Simply divine.
exactly!
Even after his death, Peter keeps on invading the innocent ears and souls of the more attractive sex
His voice always sounded like he could destroy you... and the Playgirl photoshoot showed us that he really could destroy you
That was an amazing spread...
Talking about amazing spread have you seen the original album cover of the origin of the feces?
👀👀👀 truth
BWAHAHAHAHA 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Lmao the matter of fact tone of this is great 🤣
RIP Peter…still making the ladies blush down south even from the grave.
42 year old guy here lol. Ive loved Type O since I was a teenager. Great reaction, I miss this band!
Such a great song that never got all the fame it should have...love your breakdowns!!
The end of this song when he gets to the “Am I good enough for you?” Always makes me so emotional. It switch’s up the whole tone of the song and it’s heart wrenching. It makes me want to cry every time I hear it. What a music Genius he was.
Agreed
This ...all this... every time.
Same as the end of Anesthesia where he screams “I don’t feel anything”
@@RobertL78 YEEEEEES anesthesia 💖
I remember a couple of us hanging out by the tour bus after the show and Peter came out and offered us pizza and beer. He signed our stuff and just hung out for a while. It was an amazing end to a great show and evening.
such a gentleman
When we visited a concert in Hannover, he came to the side of the stage where we were standing. Peter handed me his half full bottle of wine with a wink and hint of a smile. He told us it was a cheap bottle he bought at a petrol station, but for me it was the best wine I ever drank in my life. I was 16 and ready to die happy after that concert.
Man that would have been so cool. I have only been watching Pete and type O for a week and this is one dude and band I would have liked to have met.
Same scenario but he went inside the tour bus and brought out bread meat and cheese and took them across the street to a park and he made sandwiches for his fans. We all ate and took pics and got autographs. He was so genuinely nice.
must've been mildly terrifying considering his height and stance, would've felt blessed beyond any deity.
This hits me in the feels. I listened to this band a lot in a certain place in my life. Before everything fell apart. I almost feel hope listening to this. Like it could take me back and I could do it all over. I should put them back in my playlist for real.
The Peter Steele effect remains undeniable once again 😄
Fantastic reaction !
“I Don’t Wanna Be Me” “Cinnamon Girl” “Black No 1” “Christian Woman” all great songs. Wish I could’ve seen them in concert before he died 😢
Love Type O's version, but of course Cinnamon Girl is originally a Neil Young song. I don't know if any "reacters" have ever done any direct 'cover vs original' comparison videos, but that could be an interesting concept, I think. At least when you have bands that make a cover song their own, instead of just mimicking the original note for note.
I was fortunate to see them live. So glad I did. It’s a shame Peter is no longer with us.
I had the great opportunity to see them at a small venue night club back in 95" it was GREAT
@@katev8715 He will always be in our hearts!
I saw them in '97 at an outdoor show during the day and they were off. It was like Vampires during the day. LOL
I was lucky enough to see them in '03 at Trees in Dallas drinking Crown with Vinnie Paul at the bar. We loved how many goth chicks were full on in garb. Dime finished the show singing "Black #1" with Kenny. I wanted to see him jumping for Peter's mic. 😂
Cristian woman, black no.1, and summer breeze are all amazing ones
The live version of Black No. 1 at Dynamo is amazing, specially that scream Peter throws in at the end of the first verse
I second "Summer Breeze" or my favorite "Red Water". I was lucky to be able to see them twice on Bloody Kisses tour, great band live.
Yes!!
Cinnamon Girl is one of my favs. Oh and my girlfriends girlfriend, heh
I would also add In Praise of Bachus
I absolutely love when he sings death, specifically the way he sounds when pronouncing the E in death.
I miss Pete terribly. Thank you for making this video. 🖤
Peter Steele's accent is the dirtiest, nastiest Brooklyn accent you've ever heard in the very best of ways.
The sexiest filthy Brooklyn accent ever!
I'm 47 years old,I just discovered Type O Negative, I love this band, becoming obsessed, and Peter Steel is simply hypnotic!
I'm your age but have loved them since the early 90s...most underated band ever.
Bloody Kisses best album!
@@philiom7724 Damn straight!!!
*was..
@@philiom7724 Bloody kisses is an incredible album, but not their best in my opinion. It gets as much recognition as it does because of the songs like Christian Woman, Black #1, and Summer Breeze.
I believe it's a tie between life is killing me, and dead again as their best album. Probably more so life is killing me. But again that's just my opinion.
I've listened to this song countless times and I always fall in love with it all over again.
This band has always made me feel things no other band could. Peters vocals and lyrics combined with the blending of the instruments and music... I can't even adequately articulate it.
I have never seen someone, especially women, not get flustered listening to this song! This man and this band knew how to send power, passion, and melody straight to someone’s heart, overtaking them for 4minutes….
So much of Peter Steele's music came from personal pain and loss. And you can feel it in his lyrics. We lost him too soon.
Most that pain came for withdrawal, rather it cocaine or blood.
He was a racist cry baby. He experianced noting out of the ordinary. We'll all lose our parents at some point and yes, cats die too. Legend has it most poeple get left by their partners, some even more then once.
@@SxSxG666 boo hoo to you then
His basslines are also really cool. They have a unique sense of melody to them.
Peter Steele and Kenny Hicky made a hell of a duo. I think Kenny did a little bit of back up on this song but you should really listen to some other songs like black no. 1. When Kenny comes in it will give you cold chills…😂 They were really great together. We lost Peter to early.
The song every woman wants to be dedicated to them. His voice was so very beautiful.
Peter and Kenny were so awesome at layering their voices together to give that harmonization that you hear. It seems so rare anymore after Peter and Kenny as well as Lane Staley and Jerry Cantrell.
Peter was just... Damn... Such an amazing talent we lost too soon.
*Layne
100%🤘
Yep. ..
In terms of hard rock/metal, it is tough to beat the harmonies in TON or AIC. Van Halen had some good harmonies too.
Thank you so much for posting this one, Elizabeth! I'm a huge fan of Peter Steele/Type O Negative! It's sad that he's no longer with us and has been gone for a bit over 14 years at this point.. but WOW!! He was incredibly talented. I can listen to this band anytime and have good feels after doing so. :)
Comment's obviously being made WELL AFTER the initial post of the video - more just commenting my feelings at the moment. :)
Love how invested you are in the music to see the joy of experiencing something new brings joy toy heart
RIP Green Man, I'm glad he found another fan. His voice is like warm butter on toast.
More like he's the hot toast melting women like butter 😂
Welcome to Gothic Metal, Elizabeth. There's no way back. 😁
It's Countess Elizabeth now.
Theatre of Tragedy, Tristania, Paradise Lost, and Haggard now surely must follow! ;)
i dont understand what makes this GOTHIC metal. is it the lyrics? cuz it doenst really sound any different from metal...
@@richarddutton1981 I've always though of Type O as more doom metal.
@@richarddutton1981 it's not just the lyrics, the use of synth snd spooky sounds is a big part too. Even in bands like Epica and Within Temptation, clear symphonic metal bands, you find gothic elements. King Diamond has a big gothic vibe too, but still it's metal.
Love your breakdowns of these songs. You do so good at dissecting and describing ,both the emotion and theatrics, of the tones and implications of lyrics.
The video is shot out of order, kind of like a Tarantino film. I believe the correct order by image would be as follows:
1 - 'Little Red' in the woods, innocent and unknowing, foraging for wood when she gets that feeling of being watched.
2 - Her fleeing the woods
3 - 'The Beast' catching her at night in the woods. (Side note) This scene only flashes for about one second and is easily missed
4 - 'The Beast' and 'Little Red' at the beast's lair. *This is the point where he attempts to convince and seduce into believing that she is in control and he is there but to serve her. She seemingly capitulates but blindfolds and poisons him in attempt to escape.
5 - 'Little Red' running through the halls looking for a way out.
6 - 'Little Red' in a manic state scratching words in the wall. *She understands she is trapped and we are seeing the trauma of her dealing with the situation
7 - 'The Beast' (from Red's perspective) staring at the camera ('Little Red') when 'Little Red' returns to him. 'The Beast' intentionally looks unimpressed and somewhat annoyed.
8 - The bathtub scene. *It's important to note here that he could not "turn" her without her consent, eg. "Your wish is my law.", but that doesn't mean he can't do everything in his power to get 'Little Red' to that point. Stockholm Syndrome
9 - 'The Beast' completing the "ritual"
10 - 'The Beast' sitting down next to the wall waiting 'Little Red's' second return
11 - 'Little Red's' return as a "Beast" herself, smiling and wearing all black.
12 - The "Sex" scene
13 - 'Red as The new Beast' poring candle wax. *The Symbiology here could mean different things for each person. Wax was once used to seal things like letters, wine bottles, etc.. She is sealing something here, but what that is, we are left to make of it what we will. The look of pride on her face might give us a hint, but ultimately it's unclear.
I'm not sure if the other images of the band members are meant to be anything other than filler material or something to be "freaky" to see in some semi-shocking way.
Did I miss anything?
The album version of this always breaks my heart a little when he sings the “am I good enough for you” part 💚🖤miss you Green Man 💚🖤
We've all been there.
“Anesthesia”, "Wolf Moon" and very sensual "Be My Druidess".
'Anaesthesia' for the win!
I second Wolf Moon, great song.
@@o__math it's the song that got me into the band recently. Kind of a good thing cause if I heard them in high school in '00 - '05 I WOULD have got in the choir to try and emulate Pete. Was already a poor goth kid in band at the time. Add to other bits... I'd have "TRIED" to ladykiller Pete naturally was. And failed[was under 5'6ft and my voice took awhile to mature into a lower tenor. Very high baritone.]
@@dragonsword7370 My first TON album was October's Rust. Found in a reseller bargain bin in perfect conditions. I was a broke teenager who had listen to them previously just enough to spark my curiosity, had a few bucks and got it without thinking twice. It's a great album for starters or even overall, can't recommend enough.
+1 for Wolf Moon and Be My Druidess
I can't believe I wasn't already subscribed! I already know this is gonna be a thumbs up. I can't wait to hear your take on his vocals.
