Voltaire-Reggae Mortis

[shinjiikari911]

This song is terrible! I can't get it out of my head! I think I love it.:)

[GISMCONFUSE]

this music makes me want to never hear it or anything like it ever again. its like nightmare before christmas but worse.

[eight216]

@GISMCONFUSE good, your not fit to hear this anyways, now go be a troll somewhere else we are all busy with good music

[GISMCONFUSE]

@eight216 yes i totally agree thank you for your comment

[MrCybergigan]

@GISMCONFUSE no offense but, why are you even commenting here then? if you don't like it just leave, don't post about how much you hate the song or you'll get a bunch of insults from the fans

[zant741]

Just wondering... what's reggae mortis a spin off of? (if it is)

[LordActionHero]

@zant741 It's a spin off of rigor mortis. A few hours after you die, your joints stiffen and lock in place for about 72 hours, and that's what rigor mortis is.

[antarius46]

@zant741 Rigor Mortis, when a corpse stiffens in the hours after death :)

[Gothchick657]

it took my mom a whole 5 minutes to get the name XD silly mother~ XD

[Deathstorm501]

@Gothchick657 Well, it took my friend an entire week for him to figure out what reggae was.

[sasukeshaowwind]

@dragythuno smack yo self! one for dising voltaire TWO for saying the fag bags name and 3...ill think of a third thing....

[RhenNightshade]

@dragythuno *giggle* I have one question, since I don't know whose side you're on. You're not a Voltaire type of person, I can see by the mocking malice, but... You can't be "that person's" fan. You see, I hate "that person" enough to avoid his music like the plague.

But you call Justin Beiber a "she?"

Really now, are you just here to see how many negatives you can get?

[Deathstorm501]

@RhenNightshade I know someone who did that, coming on here just to annoy people with a single comment, and this ALSO happened to take place on a Voltaire song video. It was a comment made by a YouTuber names Metavash, and his comment ALSO involved Voltaire and Justin Beiber. Strange similarities, no?

[Elanore1235]

@dragythuno actually, you're right... that transvestite IS a horrible singer! (talking about Justin Beiber, I BOW TO VOLTAIRE XD)

[AidenBlackrose]

@Elanore1235

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY VOLTAIRE!!!!! 

[Elanore1235]

@AidenBlackrose ALL HAIL <3

[Astrashar]

0 Dislikes !! First time I ever saw that !

It's understandable thow

[RaineAmorie]

@Astrashar Cause Voltaire is beast :D Love his music!

[LindwurParty]

Bitches bow down.

[ecleps]

LOL i just realized that this song goes well with hellsings 1st episode part 2

poor seras shes got... REGGAE MORTIS 0_0

[PashupatiFR]

Is he talking about the band Bella Morte, at the end? Or did I fail to get the reference?

[zombiesrcuming4u]

raggae mortis?

Riggus mortis?

Boner from the grave?

Putting words in voltaires mouth much ppl?

[ohBlackMetal]

this is lame -.- why dont u guys just listen to black metal...

[inusword]

@ohBlackMetal

Becouse if u listen to bBad to listen to

[magic1lover]

@ohBlackMetal if u don't like it don't listen to it

[mindgoesblank0]

@ohBlackMetal because i don't like it.

simples *meerkat sound*

[TheScreamingCarrot]

@ohBlackMetal Black metal is lame because it takes itself so seriously. This isn't meant to be serious. Black metal and Goth Comedy really should not be compared, especially by biased idiots like yourself who don't undersand the most basic of musical concepts.

[metalmaster29]

@TheScreamingCarrot Yeah, they shouldn't be compared because they're totally different. Black Metal bands do tend to take themselves too seriously, it's true. Doesn't make Black Metal lame though IMO.

[TheScreamingCarrot]

@metalmaster29 Haha I must admit I don't listen to a hell of a lot of metal. I listen to Voltaire, and they're so different, but I have in the past. It's just a question of personal tastes and what a person likes or doesn't like the sound of. =)

[HeureuxPommier]

Gosh, i could listen to this song over and over and over and over........

[culin8]

666 in the alphanumerical code of the hebrew is the sum of the letters of the words "Naeron Caesar"

[Andrei1801]

That's like saying that September 11 (in the gregorian calendar) is the first day of the Ethiopian calendar and the Ethiopians probably started their calendar to match an important date in the future gregorian calendar so they must have something to do with the destruction of OTC.

Sounds stupid. Not to mention that it's a logical fallacy since it doesn't quite follow the rules of reasoning.

[LilDruid]

I see what they did there.

[NevilleStyke]

actully were all goin to hell cos weve all probabley sinned by lying and stuff in our life. So, c u there guys XD ( i dont rly belive in hell though)

[TheGreyStranger]

@nightmare2nightmare

Eh fair enough, like the song but I get bugged when people bring up the 616 thing, which is BS.

[intensecomedians2010]

YES I AM THE 100 RATER!

[nightmare2nightmare]

does it matter? way to focus on the song kid ._.

[TheGreyStranger]

"Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six."

Revelation 13 verse 18

(I'm Atheist BTW)

[smoogirl]

actually the bible lies (alot) 666 is wrong, it's 616 :P

[ell975]

@smoogirl infact, in russia, there was a bus called the number 666. they spent a lot of money changing the number to a different number. they changed it to 616

[smoogirl]

haha :D

[DasFatMan]

@smoogirl more like a typo/mistranslation...not really a LIE

[smoogirl]

i stand by the words 'lie' - sorry bub

[LordCorinth]

reminds me of voodoo vince..........

[HarlequinOcarina]

This song made me love Reggae. I kinda liked it, but now I love it.

[mortisha96]

Why it the # 666 veiwed as the # of the devil?

I think of it as a lucky #, not because relgin ( not so sure I have one ) but I think of it as lucky because its even and I like even #s ( I think I have o.c.d )

[Pikawill]

i was made fun of in class for my birthday being june 6th

[mortisha96]

Thats....um I dont know what to say but that is mean its not like you could help it.

[Cronos844]

@mortisha96 because the bible says that 666 IS the number of the devil

[mortisha96]

Yes, but why?

[Cronos844]

@mortisha96 because thats the number of the devil so there, its very simple

[mortisha96]

oh. but there must be more reasoning then that?

[Pikawill]

its just numbers

[NivMizzet89]

Somewhere in the bible 666 is mentioned as the number of the beast.

[mortisha96]

I understand that but what I want to know is why...why is it ''somewhere in the bible''

[NivMizzet89]

Wikipedia says it probably links to Nero.

[mortisha96]

Nero? what is that? I could look it up myself but...well there really is no reason....

[NivMizzet89]

Nero. Roman emperor who was very good at ruining life for christians.

[mortisha96]

hmm....I think I will be doing some reach.

[blibbit1]

@NivMizzet89 Well, he was pretty much good at ruining life for everyone.

[moonsaves]

I'd rather party in hell than chaperone in heaven.

[mortisha96]

that does Mortis mean

[canadianrainwater]

Mortis = Latin for death, I believe. "Raggae mortis" is a spoof of rigor mortis "that is caused by a chemical change in the muscles after death, causing the limbs of the corpse to become stiff" (Wikipedia definition)

[mortisha96]

Thanks that explains one of his other songs.

Wikipedia gave me a did not give ma an answer when I looked.

Thanks again

[Narutofan1270]

Raggae being a style of music, it does allude to rigor mortis. "stiff in the knees" "it's messing up my joints" ect.

[IsacCrimson]

About all this going to hell-talk: To be honest, if hell is full of people dancing around listening to this man and his genious songs, I'll just have to sin a little.

[koelkast9]

this song rocks (even though it's not rock -.-' )

[sadfaf87]

I don't even need to hear the song, the name is 5 stars

[ohBlackMetal]

lol, u took dat to heart? eat dick its just a name u fuckin faget........

[KoCorynya]

6,666 views o.o

[shinjiikari911]

Lucky!

[KoCorynya]

I expected that would be unlucky. But I know I'm goin to hell anyways so how cares?

[shinjiikari911]

i just think you are lucky to get that number. The same with number 666.

[KoCorynya]

chances are that someone totally religious got that views number.

[Cronos844]

that would be really funny

[miesrah12]

@shinjiikari911 the temperature stays at 666

[Narutofan1270]

lol if there is a hell, we'll all be there. see you there =) there'll be good company down there

[veronicanmike]

I ain't goin I'll be up in heaven (listening to Voltaire)

[shinjiikari911]

Lucky bastard! Why can't I get a cool number like that?

[thegrief13]

lol ya. im goin to heaven but in both heaven and hell everyone will b listenin to voltaire! even God and the devil will XD

[Abedeuss]

God damn, his songs rock. Seriously, the first artist I really enjoy listening to. Maybe because he's Cuban and I like Spanish-speaking artists, but still... Damn.

[KradSoba]

Voltaire is an interesting guy...I like the music...good vocals...

[Arcthorn]

Voltaire is mainly Gothic, he happen to do some alternative to. Awesome song this!

[GothycDreams]

I think that Voltaire deserves to be his own genre. The genre should be called "Voltaire" . All artists who use creepy/cheery violin/horn playing and who often sing songs about graveyeard-like subjects will belong to the genre of "Voltaire".

[Xenounit]

But they should also be able to create other types besides that as well

[Hammerman24]

It should be named "Awesome"

[GothycDreams]

Voltaire is one of the reasons why I love the dark. I can't really tell genres apart, is Voltaire reggae?

[TheFallenCanRise]

Really, I believe he defines himself as gothic folk, on his Myspace. I forget. Regardless, it's fantastic.

[Kakkarot22]

Voltaire's genre is called Gothic experimental

[xVampyrehunterDx]

I luv this song!!!

GO VOLTAIRE!!!!!

[Megadude337]

Voltaire. He's the reason I'm still afraid of the dark, but also why I enjoy that fear.

[scamoo]

hmmm this cd is different from his other work but hey, thats voltaire for ya! ;) i will always be a big fan!

[livedandletdie]

as bukimeisu said and it's a pun on rigor mortis. pronounciated rigor morti in latin.

and it ain't jazz it's his own style.

[Cullaby]

Along the Dark Cabaret lines, IMO ^__^ and yes, his lovely own style

[Ashloomis]

This isn't really goth or reggae, it's more swing jazz than anything else.

[CupidsSlave]

Well whatever it is, it's GOOD!

[bukimeisu]

reggae mortis is a pun on the term rigor mortis... the stiffening of a dead body. Voltaire enjoys using puns and jokes on "goth" subjects such as death and the afterlife.

[Ashloomis]

Voltaire didn't even write this song, it's a cover.

[meiriona]

what? of who?

[Ashloomis]

It's apparently originally by someone named Peter Forrest. I couldn't find the Forrest version online so I don't know how it sounds, just that the Voltaire version is a cover.

[GothycDreams]

Gothic swing jazz! =]

[digimon1212]

ooh i love this~!

Nya~ love it!

[bluedilettante]

This song is pure, concentrated win. Goth reggae.. <3
