    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.

    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 🤘 🦇

  • @PaleHorseShabuShabu
    @PaleHorseShabuShabu Před 2 lety +2

    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.

    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.

  • @combatveteranusnavy2012

    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.

    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 CZcams 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...

      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.
