[DanniLivesForever]

Voltaire is such a beautiful man.

[animerules990]

Deady should of been your co host :3

[LittleBlackKatt]

A 13 month calender would still still be nice, would you think about a just a gothic style calender? :)

[TheMistressDianna]

ok...i really hope you can have a goth cubs contest where we can dress our children up as goths for a reason for once and get like an album for the prize...but you probably dont want pictures of our kids...lol

[bigbadkingboomboo]

Goth cubs......

Already had an idea 4 that.....

[riophoenixlover]

Is "Am I Just Gay Enough?" a future song =p

[JonTheDandy]

you need to do some stand up comedy! lol

[victoriaisntsosecret]

@VoltaireMusicPage Well, that is fantastic! I do not represent someone who is Goth, but when it comes to my mind and it's being alone, I'm very dark and flamboyant; but of course, there's always a limit to it, you know?

[victoriaisntsosecret]

I have a question for you, Mr. Voltaire! (Teehee, I probably just made you feel elderly even though you are a complete polar opposite!) Do you think that Goth is more of a mental thing? If your Gothness (if that's...even a word.) Was a more low-key aspect of your life, then would you consider it something that centers around your state of mind and personality?

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@victoriaisntsosecret It's a little of both and sometimes only of one. You can look Goth and be super perky (but still be Goth). You can not look Goth at all, but if you FEEL Goth, then hell, who is anyone to tell you that you aren't? But usually it's a combination of both.

[PurpleLuna29]

I'm so glad I found your YouTube channel! Oh, and the fact that this was posted on my birthday makes me a happy person. Thank you for being the awesome guy you are! :D

[feckoffndie]

@pbrad1978 If you like zombie movies, check out Fido!

[GaurdianofMetal]

Thanks to his store now I'm getting a pendant

[narutofan6392]

Thumbs up if when you heard the Bloop in the the intermission music, you checked your Facebook Tab.

[donte198]

Well can i ask where you got your shirt it looks cool 

[pbrad1978]

haha orville from "children shouldnt play with dead things" that movie is very entertaining! horror movies are fun, i think you should watch the human centepede 2 :)

[HannahsVideos36]

I adore your speaking voice!

[bondaga100]

VoltaireMusicPage where i can buy a pendant like yours??

[darksslayer]

@VoltaireMusicPage

the name of these green skeletical guy no is chiliseco?

The face looks like a "chile seco"

[AhcriSlate]

Charming thing <3

[JaxAndCoke]

If you like Japanese artists, check out ROLLY he's crazy good and a great almost Bowie.

[dragoon0109]

Seems like most people, inclueding myself, from NJ tend to wake up in the PM and not the AM....hmmmm

[ritzraff]

MOSHKA WINS.

[ritzraff]

I adore you. You always crack me (Andrea from Portland...not, as it appears, Tom Waits) up.

[TheMissGnat]

So are you going to upload the songs from all of your other albums and do commentaries on them too; because that would be awesome!

[rosieeb123]

I do so admire Orville's wit and intelligence.

He reminds me of Spooky.

[RicardoGadelha]

Rio de Janeiro? That's a great suggestion, i live there! =D haha.

[Divine417]

do you listen to jrock music? cuz you said something about buck tick and they are j rock

[HalfMaskMan]

Can you make a list of the music that shaped you and etc.

[Shadowseapnt]

I don't have a account on your website or, whatever it runs on/with so I'll ask here.

If It's ignored then, well, it's my own fault for posting it on youtube.

Has Orvile (Not sure if spelled right.) Shown up in any other works of yours other then the "Happy Birthday My Old Friend Video?

[DarkOrMisunderstood]

That hat of yours is amazing... *easily mpressed* No, but seriously, where did you get it; furthermore, where can I get such hat?

[AshiAMV]

Voltaire, Y U NO come to Hungary? :(

[NPro94]

@AshiAMV same here! Y U NO come to Poland?

[MasteredMitch]

Thanks for answering! What song did you use for that photo? Never heard that one before!

[Xephiliomia]

I have started the book, yes, but I haven't finished it. Thanks for the advice on just getting it done first, very reasonable :)

P.S. I don't blame you for pronouncing my name wrong XD

[MissGothicGirlie]

@VoltaireMusicPage

May I ask...Did you always want to be a musician? And did you always want to do it in the style you do now? :)

[vintage1351]

Hey Voltaire, in your Lair you need some wall paper like LeahMouse has as her background when she vlogs. i'm not really feelin' the white sheet.

I actually happened to read that question about the books you've read...and I gotta say, you're surprisingly well spoken for someone who doesn't read.

Honestly, I'm not sure Orville's all that straight to begin with.

"I don't sing so badly in person." - my parents would beg to differ.

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@vintage1351 It's not a white sheet. They are curtains. My fancy ones are elsewhere at the moment.

[JackBuckland96]

@VoltaireMusicPage, your Takamine is a Takamine EG341SC G Series Electro Acoustic, right? I found one, and I really want to get it!

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@JackBuckland96 Actually, its an EG-334SBC to be precise.

[JackBuckland96]

@VoltaireMusicPage Hmm, apparently the EG-334SBC is discontinued, that's a shame! :/ EG341SC it is, then!

[AlexiVanGates]

@VoltaireMusicPage Tis a beautiful guitar to play, good sir =)

[ThatMuggle]

Why do Danish 'Find God' ads always appear on your videos?

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@ThatMuggle Maybe they think that anyone who listens to my music needs to be saved immediately thereafter! lol!

[ThatMuggle]

@VoltaireMusicPage Haha yes that'll be it. Oh you silly danish, you'll never stop me from listening to Voltaire!

[luvunlucky13]

@ThatMuggle theres a resident evil ad on here now xD

[Lillielle]

Y'know, I still don't see what the problem is with the nudie calendar lmao.

[TheDuckielova]

@Lillielle me neither lol, voltaire is the right side of gay, despite that picture ;D

[zeVoguee]

Oh Voltaire, mister Sakurai's name is Atsushi. Your voices would go together spectacularly.

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@zeVoguee Oh, thanks for the correction! I guess I spaced. lol!

[AutonomousArt]

cant wait till may 21st, been dying to see your short films!!

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@AutonomousArt What happens on May 21st?

[AutonomousArt]

@VoltaireMusicPage On may 21st you're calender lists Phoenix fearcon, so that's what's on may 21st! Sorry for the delay in response, i must have been dead drunk all week. See you there, and hopefully your short films as well!!

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@AutonomousArt That's in PAST SHOWS, it's from last year I'm afraid.

[AutonomousArt]

@VoltaireMusicPage That's really unfortunate. i'm now realizing where the confusion was-- there's an "upcoming shows" ticker on the side of that page that shows dates listed under the "past shows header", so there's no way to distinguish if its a genuine date or not? I'm probably reading it wrong... regardless, thanks for clearing that up in spite of breaking my black heart a little! I'll keep an eye on the mailing list instead. :)

[LilGhoulLolita]

What happened to the Alien Inflatable Sex doll?!?!?

[ave7891]

I have a question, well my sister Jesus has the question how do you wash your hair? She would like to know. Thank you:)

[TakedaRaito]

I also must say that I feel exactly the same way when I'm in a relationship as well. .-)

[Skittishjoker]

lol you so funny

[TakedaRaito]

I KNEW HE WAS GOING TO SAY BJORK! .-P

HAHAHA.

[armadillomessiah]

absolute internet gold, i implore you Mr Voltaire to continue these videos!

[ExperimentalAccident]

Have you read any comics? If so, would you happen to have a favorite/recommendations?

[Uberjakelinger]

Thank you for answering my question. :)

Nemo

[RainbowSwitchy]

... Uhh. Someone actually asked for that calender? xD

.... Oh god. Now I can't get it out of my head. ;__;

[PurpleCowsMakeGJ]

Its nice seeing you enjoy some of these questions. :] You seem very happy. :D

[MissGothicGirlie]

Lol this is a brilliant idea :P

[anon7096]

Dare I ask why Orville's seen Voltaire naked?

[Decalculus]

@anon7096 I'm assuming their are some drunk photos and/or honeymooon photos that one never should talk about...

[5parkerstv]

Loved this! Such a great idea. :)

[Solomon43822]

Did you design the squeaking doll "spooky the thing what squeaks"? I picked one of those up in Hot Topic a few years back and was curious.

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@Solomon43822 Nope, that's by Jhonen Vazquez.

[Skittishjoker]

@VoltaireMusicPage Invader zim?! 

[WarBandit111]

Well, I got my question in!

By the way, I like your hat.

[themumbler11684]

It makes me sad when Voltaire thinks he's fat because he is gorgeous and always will be

[lusciousdeath]

Loved it, keep em coming..that is if you have the time.

[Squinton27]

Holy Squee. . . that was adorable.

[TsukiEris]

Julia Marcell is a non native English speaking artist

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@TsukiEris Yes, but I worked with her. I'm assuming they wanted to know who I'd like to work with that I haven't yet.

[Solomon43822]

@VoltaireMusicPage You mentioned bjork, and quite apparently I never heard of her much less know how to spell that so do you think you could reply with her name so I could listen to some of her songs and if I like her music make a playlist to listen to her music? That's kinda the whole point to my youtube account really heh heh.

[VoltaireMusicPage]

@Solomon43822 To illegally upload music and listen to it all of the time and never support the artist by buying their CDs? Eewwww

[JacintoPlanta]

@VoltaireMusicPage He has some of your song too! Eat his soul!

[ledgendaryusername]

@VoltaireMusicPage What makes your music so amazing? I can't usually stand goth stuff, but you don't have a single song I dislike. Hell, I attend punk rock concerts on a regular basis; my interests just don't often clash with this kind of music...and yet I've purchased all of your albums, memorized nearly all of your songs, and watched all of your vlogs. I just wanted you to know that your music attracts all kinds.

[Solomon43822]

@VoltaireMusicPage You're right of course. There's no excuse for it honestly. I recently read an article about videogame piracy and it was a wake up call to be honest so I've given up piracy and I'm trying to ween myself off such things and not be, well, a thief to be frank. Up until now all I cared about was killing time since I've been waiting until January when I go to college. I never thought about the effects of my actions. I'll have to remove the playlists then as well.

[Solomon43822]

@VoltaireMusicPage I'll remove acouple of them now, I had realised a few weeks ago that I needed to stop downloading the videogames but I hadn't truly considered that my actions on youtube were wrong as well until your comment here. I guess its always a sign when you read a comment like that and you don't have a real reply so I should thank you for being honest about it otherwise I might not have thought of it like that. :)

[VivamusDraconem]

I love you voltaire! Your one of my biggest role models, and you look damn good in your top hat

[brunnoluiz777]

I dont always watch "question and answer" videos, but when i do, it's because the guy who's answering is made of 70% and 70% awesomeness.

[orangekittystudios]

i love how sparkly his eyes are!

[rockhsalt]

All my dreams come true at 4:26

[rockhsalt]

hahaah 1984

[mouldsmould]

[gogames31]

<3

[mouldsmould]

is that really you god



[no1jeanie]

ha ha ha LOVE IT!!! MINE SURELY HAS THE HOTS FOR YOU...HA HA HA AH AH

[mouldsmould]

How do you come up with your songs?

I love you and all your music especially bomb new jersey!!!!

[flyingcabbit]

*Ahem* Mr. Voltaire sir, why you are most humble with your genius self. The nudie calender is still an awesome idea. In fact, change it to pin-up and round it out with some of your most gorgeous genius friends and yourself and it would be most awesome.

[Lazysupermutant]

Voltair, what are you? I mean what medium do you fall into, Goth, rock, metal, Steam Punk, Country?

[ConyoDoom]

@Lazysupermutant Dark Cabaret

[ConyoDoom]

@ConyoDoom i think

[TheAssesKicker]

@Lazysupermutant Goth... I think, I could be wrong.

[DoomGamer3000]

Is there any Goth clubs/ alt. clubs near San Antonio?

[Kirokusclone]

@DoomGamer3000 thats something the internet is generally useful for, but it's best to ask on his website

[0xOBIEx0]

When you mentioned about non-native-english-speaking-ar­tists i thought of Rammstein and your hilarious parody you did for Du Hast! Keep it up, kind sir. You are an inspiration!

[8bitmagic]

Your videos are always a joy to watch. You're a very interesting person :p
