    Per King... King Diamond is offended by rock bands’ use of satanic themes and imagery. But that’s where the similarity ends.
    “I haven’t seen very many of these bands that actually stand up for--or even know--what they’re singing about,” the Danish rocker said this week. “It’s more like they want to create an image that’s pure blood and gore, just trying to be as evil and nasty as possible.”
    Diamond is offended because he considers himself a bona fide satanist. When rival metal merchants incorporate satanic references into their music, he said, it’s “very obviously a gimmick.” And it’s one that demeans his beliefs.
    “Some people think that people who call themselves satanists are really like that, drinking the blood of babies and that sort of thing,” he said.
    “When I use the word Satan, it doesn’t stand for a guy with horns. To me, that word means the powers of the unknown, the powers of darkness. It’s not just power, it’s powers --and there’s a big difference. I don’t believe in heaven, and I don’t believe in hell as a place with flames where people are burning and having eternal pain. I don’t believe in that at all. I believe in a place I call ‘beyond.’ ”

    One of the best shows I've seen was King Diamond during the Puppet Master tour. He headlined for Behemoth, Nile, and the Black Dahlia Murder for just an amazing show! He ended the show with Sleepless Nights. We got to meet King after (and Nergal from Behemoth) and the dude was just awesome and kind to us for a good half hour.

    This song came from 1 of 2 albums that was a concept story. The 2 albums titled Them/Conspiracy follows a young man named King, his sister Missy, mother and Grandma. In Them King stumbles upon his grandmas secret she has a teapot with dark powers. When filled with blood spirits from beyond come to her and share stories but the spirits are Evil in the sense they crave blood and each time they are fed the get stronger. At first King is seduced by it and sits for Tea Time with Grandma. Soon his sister Missy finds out and is horrified. She fights against the grandma as she is using there mothers blood to fill the teapot. Missy is no match for the spirits and is soon chopped up with an axe and burnt in the fire place. At the death of his sister King comes to his senses and realizes the spirits and Grandma must be stopped. He tricks Grandma to come outside for a walk the subsequently tears her throat out with his teeth. The cops come, the spirits go into submission and King is sent to the looney bin. The mother is not herself. That pretty much cover the Them album. Then in Conspiracy the story gets more sinister. If you guys ever get the chamce i highly reccomend you go through both albums with lyrics to follow the story to its end.

    King Diamond and Mercyful Fate were such a huge influence on so many of us in the mid-eighties If you were into what would be considered underground metal at the time. They were such a flagship even though their music doesn't necessarily come across as black metal by today's standards, it was definitely a cornerstone of occult focused music back then
    just picture it as black metal as played by Judas Priest, for example. Period
    They along with Venom and Celtic Frost , Kreator Sodom...These are all incredibly important bands to the history of what is now considered extreme metal.Very cool to see you guys Appreciating the king in this day and age .

    Singer is King Diamond aka Kim Bendix Petersen. The band he fronted was Mercyful Fate. Unlike bands such as Jethro Tull or Pink Floyd, where there's no one named Jethro or Pink (except in the movie Pink Floyd's The Wall, where the main character is named Pink). It can be a little confusing...lol..

    About Michael Jackson's stage voice. Reportedly, there is a recording of him doing voice -over work for grand theft auto san andreas, but died during production. It would be the only recording of Michael's real voice. Unlike Michael Jackson, Barry Gibb (From The Brothers Gibb, {bg's})sang in both a falsetto and a normal voice, though was only popular when singing in a higher vocal range.

    There's an old saying that says women are like Sunflowers, most glorious in their final stage and then they go to seed💚🌻 I personally adore sunflowers, it was my first tattoo LOL but seriously ever since I moved into my mom's house (in a 55+ community) to take care of her I've noticed that the happiest people I've ever met in my entire life are in their 70s! Granted this is probably only true for people who are in relatively good health still without too much physical pain, and enough money to play after retirement, without those two things probably a different story altogether. Also for women, sorry if it's TMI but menopause has a big say in how your 40s early 50s are going to be... it can turn a relatively happy existence into something unrecognizable LOL so if you're okay with shifting physical Beauty I think 50s or 60s is probably the happiest time for women, you finally get to enjoy what you've been building for decades, and there's still enough time to scrap it all and reinvent yourself if you need to!✌🧡🌟🌻🖤

    There are some clips on UA-cam from the mid-eighties of King doing interviews about his belief in the satanic doctrine and how he found it to be a religion that made sense for humanity at that moment in time, much more so than other things he had pursued. these days, who knows? he ha Defended the Satanic principles for the majority of career..
    .Which isn't to say the stupid ass Hollywood -ized version where everyone thinks they're constantly drinking blood and blah blah blah… by the way, he runs a pug dog charity as well, which is awesome?

    And he is an amazing singer, artist and always surrounded by amazing musicians.
