Vinnie Apice, Ronnie's drummer, meet Liliac after seeing them perform this song and gave Melody, the lead singer, the nick name of "Melodio", high praise, indeed! Great cover!
Yes, Melody does a great Ronnie James Dio ... and I am a a fan of the Cristea family (LILIAC) ... my only wish - is I knew about LILIAC sooner than the few months that I have known of LILIAC
If you don't already know yesterday was a big concert for RJDs birthday and a fundraiser for the Cancer Fund and Liliac performed and dropped their new cover video of Last In Line and it was amazing.
I think you did a great job here. I have to say, your kind and honest take, on these youngsters is well received, and deeply appreciated. Like a lot of us, they represent the good in life, and touch our hearts. The music interest, is only half of the bond, a fan forms with Liliac, Family is the other. Keep going, dozens of more songs to get them good feels with amazing originals, and covers alike. We fangs (fans) part ways with... Rock On, & Rock Hard !! Let's see them Horns Fangs! 🤘😎🤘
I was stoked to hear you say “I’m gonna turn this shit all the way up.” Everything Liliac does is worthy of that “11” on the volume knob. Loved yer reaction, keep ‘em coming please! Enjoy! Fang4life! RO&RH! 🤘😎🤘
Love your reaction! I get emotional watching Liliac too. They are unbelievable. You have so many songs to check out! Sail away is an original ballad and it's beautiful. Get the tissues ready! Welcome to the Liliac family! ☺🤘❤🦇
Welcome to the world of Liliac! Melody (lead singer) idolizes Ronnie James Dio and the band has created the Vamp Rock genre to reflect Metallica, Black Sabbath, RJD, Iron Maiden, and others. They have done many covers but their originals are also amazing!
They are all big Dio fans. I think Dad and Mom were really into 70s and 80s metal music. So they have properly raised these siblings. My suggestion would be the first video I saw of them. It is called "Nothing" and is filmed in black and white and made to look old. Melody has the perfect voice for this music and they all look happy when they are performing. Great reaction. Cheers from Punta Gorda Florida.
As others have said , The Last in Line ! I got emotional when I heard Liliac do it live Saturday night ! New sub here because of your Liliac reaction ! Please don't stop !
Yes! A new fan! Those of us who have been following them for a couple years and have watched them grow, have become very dedicated in getting the word out about them. They're an independent band so they need all of us to give to their Patheon and their Go Fund Me so they can keep giving us their amazing talent for decades to come without succumbing to the corruption of record labels. Thanks to Papa Liliac for protecting his family. Thanks for the Reaction and can''t wait for you to do more....like their newest one. #RORH BTW, not part of the Reaction but I love your nails. lol
You're timing is serendipitous, LILIAC just dropped another cover, The Last in Line by RJD that they did as a tribute for his birthday/cancer fund raiser event. RJD is Melo's singing inspiration. You've been bitten. RO&RH
Love your emotional response to Liliac That’s definitely how a lot of the fans feel about them prepare yourself to do some more crying after you see some of the other videos, I think it’s safe to say you may have been FANGED , you got a new Sub today RORH ! that Stands for Rock on and Rock-hard
I have been following Liliac for a few years now, they are amazing! So awesome to see and hear the younger generation embrace old school metal. Seeing them do Dio covers is especially emotional for me. They are huge Dio fans and I swear Melody channels the man himself during their performances. I have been a RJD fan for probably 40 years now... Liliac kills it.
They brought the joy back to music for me. They are definitely on the rise. Pick any song they do original or cover. Their is not one that's not very good. Great reaction I have subbed!
Awesome reaction! Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Liliac! Whether it's a cover or an original song everything these 5 young phenoms perform is old-school and EPIC! Melody has the voice of a rock/metal goddess and the rest of the band is beyond their years, tight and clean. It's not just what they do it's who they are. Mars, and "piece of my heart" live in cumming Georgia is a great representation of their live performance, Mars is an original song. Pick anything they do, you will only be more amazed! A tribute to Dio was released on the 10th, "Last in line", might be their best cover so far. Enjoy the journey! RO&RH 🤘🦇🤘🇨🇦. P.S. don't worry, I get emotional hearing them too. New sub here.
Great Reaction! You need to checkout their other covers that include Black Sabbath, Metallica, Joan Jett, Janis Joplin, and others. They have great original music also. They are the best young rock group up and coming today.
Thank You for a great reaction to this awesome young band....LILIAC. These kids are very, very talented, besides doing Awesome covers. Their originals are even better, hope you eventually react to them. Again loved your reaction!!!! Cheers!
Great band for you to find. I have been watching their videos for a few years. Started as covers from the Santa Monica Pier, but now they have original music as well and they tour. Everything they do is fantastic, so you won't be disappointed by anything.
Ashley always love your ever changing look and reactions! Also your spirited personality and especially those very cute saiki from bandmaid teeth! 👍😘🥰🥰❤❤🤩🤩
Great reaction Liliac was chosen by Wendy Dio to do The last in line for Dios birthday show for Cancer research and Melody crushed it I thought it was best of show..
@@diedregerick1438 I haven't been able to find it but it was a fundraiser that was $20 to join the Livestream. I couldn't afford it but I hear it was a killer. Many famous rock legends were on it. Richard could tell you more.
I seen RJD in 85-86 in a mini dome. The lights flickered in the whole city of 70k people their sound was crisp clear and loud! Rjd is a performer , and the best at metal. As good as anybody. Still to this day be est concert stage show ive seen. Believe ive heen to alot of them. This band is truly amzing. People dont even try to cover RjD . This young band truly plays a quality tribute the the late RjD. I live them n hopefully for years to come. Keep it up !
Just surfed in just now. I've been watching Liliac reactions tonight just for fun. I'm a Gen X'er so, I grew up on this kind of music beginning with new 8 track tapes! Back in 2017 I was doing the tourist thing in L.A. with my girlfriend at the time, and spent a day in Hollywood, the Venice Courts and the Santa Monica Pier. When we first walked out the pier Liliac was there and first thought was "Wow" hair rock children Busking for tips. After 2 songs I had a feeling I was whitenessing something great but my millenial girlfriend wanted to shuffle on. Then in 2021 I stumbled on to them again here on RU-vid and was blown away but not super suprised! They are each stars in their own right. An emotional Chatty Cathy that is super cute and has a great since of humor! I think I'll just stick around for a bit. You're coool! Liked - Subscribed!!! JWM
So very nice to see someone get their emotions stirred by music - that's what it's supposed to do after all! :D Liliac's Holy Diver cover always gets me as it was my late wife's favourite song and Melody is just a phenomenon in how she sings it.
You have been "Fanged!" You really need to check out some of their original material as well. Mars, Nothing and Sail Away to start with. Saw them Saturday and already have tickets to see them next month in PA. #RORH
Love watching reactors discovering LILIAC for the first time and yours was one of the best I've seen. 👏 Sam can melt your face off with the best of them, I think he got ya at 5:14 😉 RO&RH 🤘
I got emotional too. It’s beyond cool that these kids are covering these 80’s metal songs that were so important to me back then. What’s even cooler is they have their own content too. They have an amazing back story as well. I describe them as the evil Osmands.
I'm an old guy, I was around for Black Sabbath when they came out in the 70's and with RJD after Ozzy left and I get the emotional reactions, song you hold dear you don't to see them ruined (for a lack of a better word) it's said Ronnie wrote Rainbow in the Dark after he left Rainbow, He said working for Richie Blackmore was the worst gig he ever had and wrote the song about Richie, You should go the the lyric video if that interests you, ..Ronnie was a God.. You're Dad was write, His voice is such that if anyone tries to cover him they don't look so doing so.. Melody and Liliac do not disappoint.. I love seeing the younger generation keeping great music alive.. I subscribed just because you have The Exorcist on your shelf! Saw that at a Drive in when it came out.. You Rock!!
Only saw. Them recently....jealous yes...envious yes....in awe....yes.....blown away yes....wish them the best of luck in life and their metal world...stay off hard drugs and over indolgents of alcohol....rock on...😎🤘
Fantastic reaction I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets emotional when I watch them ! And I’m 48 ! You have to do more liliac reaction s you’ll definitely become a fang! And iv just subscribed to your channel!
Discovered them about a year and a half ago. Love them. Going to see them in Oct. You need to reacted to them doing there song (Mars) Live from Cummings Ga. A awsome performance.
newest is Last in Line by DIO it was done for a DIO for cancer live stream. It will give you chills if you grew up with dad listening to DIO. it is longer than the released version i think Vinnie Apice gave them a copy of a unreleased version to use for the live stream. But yeah the Mars live version from Cummins, GA will give you sample of what they are live in concert.
You've cracked your soul open on this one. It magnified my own emotions. I wouldn't believe people could like myself cry over this kind of music. You're certainly right, this feelings are fueled with nostalgia. I've never watched you channel, you're so fun and sweet ! Real good time ! This listenings amplified the joy we take in the songs.
This is the first timei have caught your channel and I know exactly how you a feel! I am I think a manly man but when I see a good performance I sob like an idiot cuz good music just hits different! It's so amazing how it can touch what seems to be your very soul !
I'm so happy to hear a new, great rock band! This is great, Seven Nation Army is great. But what really touched me was when they invoked Janis and "Piece of my Heart"...
Melody also plays bass. Ethan used to play rhythm guitar. He switched to bass to allow Melody to focus on vocals. Melody is a bad ass bass player. She plays bass on Somebody To Love while singing. The bass line for that song is very intricate to play let alone play and sing and she was like 15.
I tear up at any song that hits me. Wether it be great lyrics, or perfect singing or if the music itself hits me. I’ll tear up at any song I like. Especially the first time I hear it.
I wish I could give you more than one like. Your reaction was awesome. I was a teen in the 80’s & grew up listening to this type of music. Your appreciation for it made me emotional as well. I subscribed
invested ? never seen a reactor get this emotional, excellant reaction to LILIACs stuff. they really do put it out there when they perform . You go Ashley, RoockOnandRockHard 🤘🤘
Some may think that it's silly or weird that you are almost crying but it's not , that's what music is supposed to do, make you have emotions that's the wonder about it, I'm with you all the way, let's jam🤘
