First Time Hearing Lord of the Lost after Eurovision. Vocal ANALYSIS of "Blood & Glitter"
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- Our Patron community has been asking me to take a look at Lord of the Lost for a couple years now (thanks Andy) and it wasn't until the controversy around Eurovision this year that I decided I have to see what I'm missing out on. Here's a question: How did this band get last place in the finals? This was absolutely INCREDIBLE!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Lord of the Lost for the first time, performing "Blood & Glitter”.

Thank you so much!
Y'all are amazing!!! Thank you for making such wonderfully inclusive music 💜🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Ich denke eher, wir müssen uns bei Euch bedanken für Eure Songs 😉
This was a fantastic performance, and I'm super grateful you enjoyed the analysis!
You guys rock! Love you!
Good last place... Grüße aus Sachsen. 🇩🇪
My favorite bit is how them opening for Maiden came to be, there's a bit of an interview on it, essentially they got a call from their agent if they would like to open for Iron Maiden, their response was, of course, agree to everything. Next day, their agent calls them back, to confirm their placement. Their reaction "So, how much is it going to cost us?", the agent starts laughing, band goes "what? what? what?", agent responds "You understood that wrong, Iron Maiden asked You if you'd like to open for them", as it turns out Steve Harris (IM bassist) heard them and wanted them to go on stage/tour with LotL.
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, and love all over the world, I would love 💚us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don't mind. I'm Doctor Christopher Johnson from San Francisco, California, where are you from if I may ask?❤
If Steve Harris has endorsed it what more do you need? What a major break for this bands career. Best of luck guys. You deserve it.
I think Chris (aka Lord) would be such a nice guest for your podcast/interview. He's such a massively talented and knowledgeable yet humble person, you'd love him!
She would!!!!!
Yess!!!!!!!

Best idea
I mean, there is a reason why TankTheTech has interviewed him TWICE for his podcast. 🙂
I've worked so many gigs over the years, I don't always remember particular bands unless they make an impression (either good or bad!), but when Lord of the Lost came to town about 5 years ago, they made an instant and enduring positive impression for how awesome they were on stage, and how sweet they were off stage. I've been asking my boss to get them back to Glasgow ever since - and they'll be back soon! Very excited.
Going to see them in Glasgow later this year....can't wait...

Germany was robbed this year! I've been a Eurovision fan since 1976 & I've never said a country was robbed before. It was sheer injustice, especially with the juries putting them last. How the hell could industry "professionals" not understand the complexity of the vocals & music? The amount of talent this band has is epic.
If you're looking for other songs by LotL, I'd recommend One Last Song (slower), Raining Stars (more electronic elements) & Ruins (heavier). Or you could simply try La Bomba (what I call salsa-metal).
Completely rigged so that it's held in Sweden for the 50th anniversary of Waterloo winning. Finland would have won otherwise.

Their cover of "the look" is great too
They for sure didn't deserve last place, but I wouldn't say they were robbed. Their bad luck was that Finland also sent an alternative act that was just much better - and was actually robbed of winning by the jury. Besides that I do think that Chris is an outstanding harsh vocalist, but his cleans are just passable. And finally, they represented Germany and we are so used to not getting points from anyone regardless of the performace, so they started from behind anyways.
I'm with you, I don't necessarily agree the German entry was the most representative but I do agree it was my favourite 😂
I‘m only 5 minutes into the video, but already loving your reaction 😊 He does do the ‘stutter‘ in his harsh vocals live! I assumed it was post-production until they proved me wrong at the Eurovision preselection performance. It sounds just as good live.
Chris would be a great candidate for a Tea Time Interview!!
Oh great idea on teatime interview with Chris! He’s such a super nice fella in fact the whole band are just super kind guys and I tell you they are all great humanitarian‘s.
Yes, he does the stutter in the German finals, but sadly not so good in the finals in Liverpool.
Overall I liked the vocal performance in the German finals better than the one in the grand final in Liverpool.
But either way it is a shame the got last in esc.
I'm confused 🤔 I saw a video on their channel where Chris explains the vocal part and I think he said, it was done in the post-production
@@stapelfrau6827 I've watched the part in video from the national final, just to be sure. It sounds like some kind of effect is used, but he has to be doing at least part of the heavy lifting himself, imo. I mean, it's a little like using autotune - it can help with minor issues but it definitely won't fix bad technique. It can be, however, used in non-standard (or at least originally unintended) ways, e.g. Cher back in the day used extreme autotune to glitch her vocals, and various rappers do a similar thing but it's more like a constant pitch shifting where it shouldn't be normally possible. This exact song, it seems they use something similar, but for a different characteristic than pitch.
@@olgapisova6207I think it's an effect in this case (and was at the ESC where effects are allowed), but he kind of also does it sometimes in other songs at concerts by knocking on his chest on long notes.
One of my favorite things about LotL is how much variety they have. They have a new focus for every album, and this album is more 80s glam rock. My favorite album is definitely Judas, with its focus on orchestral sound and storytelling, but I love that there's a LotL album for every type of music I'm in the mood for!
That´s definitly so cool about them. My favourite album is "Die Tomorrow", but I also love "Empyrean" and "Thornstar". :)
My favs are Thornstar and Judas.

Awesome. I was blown away by these guys at Eurovision. Hadn't come across them before and I couldn't believe how badly they were treated by the public vote. Can't wait to see them in Nottingham later this year! 🤘🤘
All their albums are so unique, they have metal and classical stuff, Chris is a cello player✨
I've had UA-cam recommend several Lord of the Lost videos recently and I've been ignoring them, having never heard them before. Now that I've seen and heard them in this video, I'll dig into them much deeper.
Their lead singer was on German tv just ahead of Eurovision, WITH HIS MOM.
Seeing this scary ass dressed up guy being the sweetest dude with that little granny next to him was kinda wild.
There is a video with him and his mom sitting in the livingroom and answering questions from the fans 🥰 so cute and heartwarming
Chris made an entire video walkthrough/talkthrough of the vocals for this song. It is super fascinating to hear him break down all the parts and vocal choices

Yay! I was waiting for you to react to them for a looong time! They're one of my favourite bands of all time for many, many years and I've seen them live at least 10 times or more now. I also met them a couple of times after concerts and they're one of the nicest bands I've ever met. Really sweet, taking time to talk to every fan at least a few minutes and patiently waiting until every last one got their photo or signature. 🖤 So happy to finally see them on your channel and I'm also happy for them getting even more fans after Eurovision. Here in Germany they've been really big in the Goth and Metal scene for years and consistently got bigger and more beloved with every album, they really work hard for their success! 🙌🩸✨ I bet Chris would do a Tea Time Interview with you, he's been on Mark's (Kardavox), Tank's and other Channels already and I think he's always up for a chat with other fellow musicians. 🥰
Also, Chris can easily do all of this live, they're an amazing live band! 🔥
👍👌 I couldn't have said it better!

My first song I ever heard of them was "drag me to hell" I still love it to this day
That's a awesome song too
One of my absolute favourites! ❤
I love it that there is also a layer of classic male singer in his voice. He could sing 40's songs sounding authentic.
Super happy to see you react to Lord of the lost, the band is definitely unique, one of my favourites and Chris is a stand out as a vocalist
LotL? Finally! I've been waiting a long time for them to appear on this channel)
They have many more amazing compositions, I would like to see the analysis of the "Loreley" song next time!
They have so many really good songs, I love Morgana, The Heartbeat of the devil, One last song - looking forward to see them live!
One Last Song is brilliant
There is a LotL's video with the concert performed with the symphonic orchestra, and it's just GLORIOUS.
On this rock I will build my church - great song by them
Thank you! I saw them live a few days ago, it was awesome.
I really like your reactions while listening and watching clip to this song. It was hard not to smile with you.
P.S
Chris has one of these voices that could read a simple phonebook and people would still listen to him.
In fact, I have seen a video of him doing exactly that a couple of years ago!
@@Mookster. 🤣 I need to search for this video, I guess.
This is a very impressive reaction video. Thank you for that. I first heard Lord Of The Lost at the German preliminary for the ESC and have been working my way through the band's impressive discography ever since. I find Chris Harms' voice fascinating. I highly recommend the song "My Constellation (Live at SINISTER SUMMER STREAM)" or "Loreley".
Chris Harms explains in a video (LORD OF THE LOST - Blood & Glitter (Vocal Tutorial)) that this effect at the beginning of the song it's done in post.
Speaking of Lord of the Lost, I love their song "Cha cha cha". Great listen.
So, in fact it's not their song, but funny indeed.
I had never heard of Lord of the Lost until Leaving The Planet Earth popped up in my UA-cam recommendations. Wow, that voice just grabs you from the first notes! I can't get enough, and can't get that voice out of my head!
My favourite band! I'm so glad you're checking them out!
I'm so glad you finally did this band. I'm obsessed with them. Really hope you check out some of their older music/videos. I recommend watching their album documentaries, it's fascinating to see what goes into producing some of the sounds they create x

Two weeks until I hear this in Glasgow when they support Iron Maiden. Cannot. Wait.
Managed to see em live few weeks ago warming up Maiden, positive surprise that they are a great live band and after show gallup with fellow Maiden fans stated samewise. Waiting to see em on festival this summer again.
OMGGGG! Your reaction was priceless, haha!!
I am a massive fan of LOTL for so many years and your Vocal Analysis was super sweet, professional and charismatic!
I have to say this is one of my favorite bands right now.. I'm extremely picky about my music. His voice is like
soft liquid balm that soothes my soul in kind of a dark romantic sort of way..

This!
I think Priest was my first song I heard from them. I love their music so much
i would love to see more LOTL on you channel , there is a realy deep Rabbithole with this Band
I must see a teatime interview with Chris Harms.
Thank you to Patron community to constantly asking about LOTL reaction. I love Chris voice and I was disapointed by results of Eurovision. Anyway Chris give great performance on contest. Thank you for this reaction.
I'm so excited you are finally getting into Lord of the Lost! You're going to love their theatrical videos! My favorite Chris Harms vocal showcases and experiential video production are "Black Halo", "Priest", "Morgana", and "Born with a Broken Heart (Live at Sinister Summer Stream)" for a live performance! Can't wait to see what you react to next!

This is insanely amazing.
I can’t wait to listen to them more.
Wow
Worth mentioning that Chris is a producer of many other bands so LOTL albums are always on point from a production point of view. Try a Swan songs track for a more intimate vocal performance and anything from Judas is always worth a review. Brilliant band
you should definitely do a tea time interview with chris harms!!
Wasn't aware of this band till recently and seen them opening for Iron Maiden at Glasgow the other night, was very impressed.
I've been watching Eurovision as long as I can remember, only missing a few years and Germany was SO GOOD this year. Absolute shame they didn't do well, I was so sure they would be in top 10 this year!
My first time have heard off this band to when i saw MGP 2023 but love the band, new album and this song is awsome, fan for sure now😎🤘👏🔥🇳🇴
I loved to see this one! I didn't knew this band until I saw them live very recently, and I completely fell in love with those guys. They are even more impressive live!!

Thank you for your great reaction. I think all the juries of the ESC Contest should watch this, to realize that their few points LOTL got in May in that contest were wrongly chosen. 🙏
Thanks for the engaging reaction Elizabeth! If you wanted to react to more of their work, I’d really suggest the live Sinister Summer Stream performance of My Constellation. It’s really impactful to see how Chris and the whole band embody their music in live performances

This is one I had to watch your reaction. Your face at the butt shot made my day. This is a band that I hope to see one day.
Also, with nearly every video, read the credits. They love to hide easter eggs in them.
Ha-ha! Like the video for "Black Halo" which was filmed on a beach ... I nearly spat my drink over my laptop when I unexpectedly saw in the credits "No seals were humped during the making of this music video."
Hi dear Elizabeth....for such a premier talent German goth and synth band, rather surprised you have not done reaction analysis on them. This one is very much on their "pop/synth" side and was their song as representing Germany in this years POLITICAL driven Eurovision awards. Best band there and they came in last place...shaking my head still. How talented are they? They also do orchestral arrangements with symphonies at times. Chris is an accomplished Cellist as well. It may be long time before you get back them, but please do, to see the full metal glory of them. I suggest either Under The Sun or Drag Me To Hell.
I fully support your suggestions and kudos for the great comment. The livestream of Drag me to Hell live with Subway to Sally is simply stunning when you hear how good Chris is live, simply impeccable vocals.
A great analysis! Thanx!!! To this day I still don't understand why they finished last at the ESC. That was totally unjustified. 😞
I wish I were doing what I loved for a living like Elizabeth. She has such joy and zeal and fervor for music and metal/opera. I’m going to fight hard to learn voice and music theory and try to train my ear. Elizabeth is a rare treasure/expert. Such a pleasure to watch!!! ‘Til the day I die I will study music!!!! ❤

You should really check out raining stars that they do also
Hi Elizabeth you should check out Australia's representative for Eurovision this year called Voyager with their song Promise. They won their semi final and came 9th over all in the grand final.
Love love love lord of the lost their eurovision performance was amazing and i really think their performance was underrated.
Of all the things I'm subscribed to, this channel and Elizabeth makes my day! 😊 Love the content!
I've been waiting so long for some Eurovision songs 😁😁Would love to see some other entries as well! :3
LotL ❤ please do more of them. There's quite a lot to discover 😉
You have to react to any of their songs from their album Judas! My Constellation is incredible.
I love how excited Elizabeth gets in every one of these videos. The excitement is contagious and I've learned so much about how the voice works from these. Thank you for such great content :D
Amazing video, thanks so much! Some recommendations for analyses of Chris's live vocals: "My Constellation" livestream at Sinister Summer Stream, and "Drag me to Hell" livestream with Subway to Sally. Absolutely top-notch live performances with an amazing sound production, you'll have trouble believing they're really live.

You know there need to be follow ups, right? Because one song is not enough to show what they are capable of. 😁 But for now, I am enjoying quiet moments of fuzzy happiness.
Always so much fun to listen to an expert professional vocalist evaluate and teach us music lovers that just like music but don't know anything about it. Thank you for continuing to share your knowledge with us Elizabeth!!!
please please please do more LOTL-reactions!!!
it was so fascinating and lovely to see your reactions! 😍
for example do "Priest", "Drag me to hell" with Subway to Sally or "Not my enemy"... ❤
I would love to hear your analysis of more popular tracks of LoTL like e.g. "Loreley" (having been in Germany you know a bit of German folk tales and their influence even on classical music as being an opera singer yourself). "Blood & Gitter" is not really LoTL's best track and performance, not only because it didn't worked out in Eurovision, but Chris' vocals are not even close to his usual abilities.
Loreley is my favourite. I'd never heard of them before Eurovision. I have listened to them a lot since then.
Definitely robbed at Eurovision. They were amazing
Yes!!! Loreley was the first song i heard of theirs back in 2020!!
I love these guys! I saw them live last summer opening for Iron Maiden and they were amazing! I was so disappointed they didn't play longer! I hope to see them in concert again soon! And their make up is always impressive! 🤘🤘🤘❤❤❤

During the clean parts I get a David Bowie vibe
OH MY GODS AAAAAAHHHH THEY ARE MY FAV BAND!!!! YAAAAAAY!!!!
not gonna lie tho, i think in terms of… the most interesting takes on both Chris’s vocals and the band’s instrumentals, their album Thornstar is the most awesome. but all their music is heckin good. 🥰 I AM SO GIDDY AAAAAHHH 😂
They deserved a much higher score. But you never know with the eurovision audience. They're fickle. You should check out Finland's song. It rules. That was the real outrage because the audience overwhelmingly voted for them, but the jury said "Nah, we want it in Sweden."
Did they deserve a higher score tho? As a German metalhead I would say they got exactly what they deserved. And to think a band as good, and popular world wide, as Electric Callboy got pushed out of the Eurovision qualification while these clowns were allowed...
Deserve a higher score? Maybe, but not with this song, sorry. It's so repeatetive you're f-ing bored super fast and wish it already ends.
Your right about the score for this song. I voted for it.
The rest is unfortionaly bullshit. The lyrics of the Finish song is a bag of shit, but it has a catchy chorus. That is, of course, my humble opinion 😀
@@jan-e.bypoweractually it is not bag of shit if really looked into, the singer explained the lyrics in an interview as well
The things the singer does with his voice definitely deserved more attention from juries. But juries never praise variety
I love what you've done with your hair!! I'm also SO GLAD you decided to do Lord of the Lost, they are a REALLY fun band to dive into. Morgana, In Our Hands, Cut Me Out, and La Bomba are all very different and amazing. The version of Cut Me Out they did during COVID is goosebump-inducing. SO SO GOOD.
❤ Chris Harms heeft een tutorial video gemaakt over het zingen van Blood and Glitter. Is misschien ook de moeite waard om te bekijken.
Hi, thank you. I love your enthousiasm so much! Can you analyse the curtain falls from lord of the lost too sometime? Dear greetings.
It's always a pleasure to hear new bands and analysis on vocals.
I can not tell, how much I enjoyed your reaction. LOTL is one of the top tier musicians in my weird music universe 😁. The live performance in the Liverpools Finals is my favourite clip of this song, because I love that he ends it with a kind of growl, so it is slightly different than the video. I also loved the positive energy and dedication at the ESC performance. Those guys did great!
Hi, Elizabeth! If you would like to listen to more of this years Eurovision songs, you should check out Finland's representative Käärijä's song "Cha cha cha", he came second in the whole contest with that song! Another good song from this years ESC is Australia's representative Voyager's song "Promise". I hope you could do an analysis about those songs! And my final suggestion would be Finland's representative of 2006 called Lordi and their song "Hard Rock Hallelujah": it is by far the only time Finland has won the Eurovision Song Contest, AND it is a really catchy hard rock song with its quite simple main guitar riff and backing vocals! Love from Finland!!!♥
Great suggestions and I'd also love to see some more eurovision analysis. If we're going back to 2006, Mihai Trăistariu with Tornero for Romania would be well worth a look.
BTW Finland hosted a great Eurovision. ❤🇫🇮
Saw them live last night in Dublin supporting Iron Maiden. They were truly magnificent. Their live sound filled the whole arena. Totally under-rated band.
Another good song by Lord of the Lost is Lorelei! First song I heard from them.
Having absolutely fallen in love with LOTL and their music, it gives me so much joy to see you react so excitedly! 🖤❤✨
LotL is amazing ❤ Every album is different and they are not afraid to explore new things 👍🏻
"Loreley", "Priest", "For they know not what they do", "The gospel of Judas" are great songs to react to ❤
And I think you would love "my constellation" live, "a splintered mind" and "the broken ones" 👍🏻
Chris could read me a manual for a vaccuum cleaner and I would love it...
And he actually did read one on social media some time ago, because some fans said the same 😂
These guys are super funny and so down to earth ❤
Will see them live in Cologne/Germany next year in April 🎉🤟🏻
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, and love all over the world, I would love 💚us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don't mind. I'm Doctor Christopher Johnson from San Francisco, California, where are you from if I may ask?
They're touring with Set your Sails at the moment. An absolute recommendation too!! 🔥
There is a very interesting video from Chris explaining what he is doing where he put his attention to when he performs this song. They made it shortly before Eurovision
It is here:
m.ua-cam.com/video/o_fJHcGAPp0/v-deo.html
I've been waiting so long for you to get to them!!!
I really enjoyed your reaction to 'blood&glitter' lotl are my favorite band and they have so many amazing songs. if you want to check more out from them i would suggest 'The Death Of All Colours' from their album Judas
and if you want to listen to the stutter vocal life, watch the life perfomance of 'blood&glitter' from the election of the german act for the esc. imo it was really audible there
Yes, it's a shame the Eurovision Song Contest itself doesn't allow any vocal recordings on the life performances at all (I believe all the instruments can be on tape ... just not a voice), even for nice little technical flourishes like Chris's "stutter".
Stoked to see LotL on the channel, been waiting patiently for them. Would love to see analysis of any of their songs that they performed in their unplugged “festival of love” video on UA-cam!
That Festival of Love concert is my favourite thing on UA-cam - ever! I was crying for the last three songs because it all got too much how brilliant they were, even without an audience (filmed during Covid lockdown as a fundraiser). Wish it would get released as a hardcopy or a download at least.
Now I wish you had been a member of the expert jury.
I am happy you’re reaction to LotL after I and others have tried to convince you quite intensively 😎
I do know and love LotL since their very beginning. I have seen and shot them many times and they are such incredibly good live.
Finally you've analyzed LOTL! They're been one of my favourite band in the last few years. If you get a chance to see them live, jump on it! You might want to check out a few more songs: Loreley or Priest are awesome and all of their videos are very well done.
Like your analysis. I love Chris` voice. Please check more of their songs. There are quite a lot of very good ones like Ruins, Morgana etc❤
Would love to see you review a bunch of Eurovision 2023 songs... Finland and Norway's entries for sure :)
Would love more Eurovision reactions!
Elizabeth, you absolutely MUST interview Chris Harms. Hs will be a great interviewee.
PLEEEEAAASEEE DO MORE LOTL REVIEWS!
This is amazing and talented, and (for my opinion) underrated band!
Chris has not only beautiful and strong voice, he's also done huge work with his vocal from his childhood and for a lifetime. In a live performances his voice sound right and clear
I REALLY hope that you will do more videos with LotL!!
You express EXACTLY what it is I love about Chris' voice in technical terms ❤ much love from a longterm LOTL fan
If you want another wild vocal-switch of his, check out Morgana
This song was one of my favorites and still is
This is gonna be an interesting video
Ps: would you check Loreley? It might pick your interest
Finally!
If you liked the variety in this song I would strongly suggest "For they know not what they do" from their last album Judas. In my opinion that song is even better.
You are right and awesome. Thank you!
The song had to be at or under 3 minutes for Eurovision, guessing they added the guitar solo after it because they couldn't play it live in the show, but they can whenever/wherever else they're gonna play it. I'm really stoked to see them at Wacken this year
The video was released before they announced or were even officially chosen for the ESC national selection. All LOTL music videos have an outro that fits the song.
@@Andy_from_de That's neat! I started listening to hem after hearing they were gonna compete in Eurovision, but I listen on spotify so never saw any of the videos.
@@SummerFlowNightSleep you should! Adding to the music, they are mostly visual masterpieces as well.
@@Andy_from_de will do :D
I love Lord of the Lost! I can't wait to see your reaction! 😍
I hung out with Pi Stoffers at a friend’s birthday party in Germany! He was super chill and I’ve got videos of us and others getting wild on the dance floor 😂
This song and Australia were my two favorites from this year’s Eurovision because they were metal
LotL have stronger songs, but here they represented us worthily. As a German, you have to ask yourself whether we wouldn't have come last with Electric Callboy. The Finns had Electric Callboy on stage, so to speak ;)
Chris and the boys proudly showed what Germany can do. The whole discussion about the last place is idle. If you tour with Iron Maiden, you can also take last place at the ESC. We would have done similarly with the other participants. Thanks for the video :)
Thank you for your great analysis. It gave me much additional information about the song and how well it is made.
When I saw the competition, I also believed their low placement in the ESC 2023 was a total disregard of the song quality and the artists performance. I wonder if they wouldn't have gotten more points if they had represented a different country...
Anyway, in my books when watching the ESC this song was definitely a Top 5 song, if not Top 3. I'm not sure if No. 1, although I saw the potential then.
After this analysis I came to the conclusion, that this song had the potential for No. 1,and that especially the juries of the ESC are not qualified to do their job properly.
Yes where not that good this year, but not catastrophal.
So the juries have four categories.
Performance
Composition
Voice
Originality
At the beginning I want to say the I like this song.
The voice was good but not one of the best (we had many good singers this year)
The Performance was good, but in the comparison in the middle (many good performances).
The Song itself it not really original and not so good composed (it is okay).
So this result was not so suprising. I mean yes last place was not deserved. I would put them in like place 19-21 in the jury ranking but not higher. And there is a problem the average of the rankings Germany was like 18th, but with the 18th place you don't get any points. With the Average Germany wasn't last anymore.
The other thing is that there are many good songs etc.
I would put Armenia or Spain in first place as a jury.
For the Televoting:
Metal is not popular in the Esc and in the Esc Community it also was not popular. It was place 24-28 (I don't remember the exact place) in MyEurovisionScorebourd from 37 songs.
