Is that you melisa - mercyful fate

[blackleather86]

besides the albums "time" and "don't break the oath" mercyful fate's best song though king diamond's unusual clear vocals.

[pryletoncyo]

The black angel woman in the picture looks like she has a leg for an arm, with two legs behind her.

[MaelSechlinn]

This is the only version I ever heard of this song, well except live but that doesn't really count now does it?

One of my personal favorites, and one of the many reasons this album gets more spin time than any other MF album, a true classic!

[TheMicho70]

oy dana dana there is no satana

[Inundium]

Fantastic song!

[merfat11]

King is the one...KING DIAMOND...

[MegaAzharIqbal]

I only like this version

[metaldave9000]

So..is there 2 versions of this song? One by MF and KD?

[elchafa]

@metaldave9000 where'd you get that idea from?

[metaldave9000]

@elchafa If you listen to the intro solo by Mercyful it sounds exactly like this one at 4:03 but a lil faster....but idk it sounds kinda the same to me

[MrDodstink]

her tits are hot too. FATE + hot girl= best listening!

[aznagachcefiron]

Good vagina Melissa in this video.

[MadcapMan]

@aznagachcefiron

Yes Melissa has a very good vagina.

[zannahklis]

macam lagu melayu je aha!

[mbm13213]

This song should be called " Is that you Lisa?... you dirty fucking whore, where the fuck have you been? ...where are my truck keys you piece of fucking shit?!!!"

Well crap...maybe that's too long.

[tolin430]

@mbm13213 're right asshole! whether or song says

[thesanjoser408]

@mbm13213 and lisa tell tiffany to bring me my van back...should be the chorus...seen diamond about 20 times now he puts on one hell of a show...tell u what...

[TheOutlaw96]

@mbm13213 shorten it. "lisa, go make me a fucking sammich!"

[Melissaamorx]

[Melissaamorx]

[rlant76]

all the kings songs are awesome

[xGangrenax]

I was named after this song *.*

Thank you mom and dad!!

[Dusarrion]

@xGangrenax

If only I had parents that badass.

[xGangrenax]

@Dusarrion

I'd rather have parents a little less badass and a bit more caring xD

[FkenHellzBellz]

KD MF FTW :DDDD

[mjdenaut]

All these great comments about King Diamond!

But what about poor Melissa burning in Hell!

Does no one care about her?

It's ok I'll continue watching over her!

[devilindesquise]

Awsome!

[Electrotrash420]

Fucking King! Gotta love them pipes..Rock on brutha.

[Assilym]

[Nuhtin4u]

Stay Heavy Guys!

\m/ KD / MF Forever! \m/

[wilsonseto1]

woww this is awesome HAIL THE KING

[Dosed318]

the image used is so bad ass.

[KisameofAkatsuki5]

@Dosed318

1. king diamond lyrics aren't satanic

2. its not serious 90% of the time, its an image one good way to make it in rock

3. see a physciatrist obviously your religions driven you to insanity

[RippedSupreme]

@KisameofAkatsuki5 Well, you're completely wrong about the satanic lyrics. A lot of them are actually all about satan and worshipping him, but not necessarily stating his own point of view.

[KisameofAkatsuki5]

@RippedSupreme i know MF lyrics are satanic and again its image. you said it pretty well yourself

[Bounzer88]

@KisameofAkatsuki5 but king is in the church of satan :P^^ by the way it's not that bad^^

[Dusarrion]

@KisameofAkatsuki5

Venom were the tongue-in-cheek satanic themed band. King has been a long-time Laveyist and the satanic themes that made their way into early MF songs were intended to be very serious. But #3 is probably right on cue, hehe.

[jeff9ish]

king diamond is evil sick disturbed rob harlford king diamond is horrible his band is good though mercyful fate and kd lyrics are twisted and very devil worship praising crap and anyone who likes these lyrics please see a physciatrist

[Azashio]

@jeff9ish Uh-huh. You should see an English teacher.

[Kindersztuba]

In the shadows the best heavy metal album ever.

[MrMelvin11000]

enten eller ? hvem er du?

[manny667]

tremendisimo grupo de los 80, si mal no recuerdo de `1983,mis años de friki en Cuba.

[cjpboy18]

i think this is fates best song

[bubbabongwater]

Gr8 Song

[Drex910]

This song is badass. Like, passing people on the highway doing 85mph badass.

[rastoxiv]

were did u get that image? i want to get it tattoed

[jsixtvf]

It's a paint by Luis Royo, I dont know what collection includes this one. I think it appeared in Heavy metal magazine

[1kolesar]

beutiful song!

..Iron Maiden couldn`t steal a part of this song...This song is from album In the Shadows from year 1993, Fear of the dark album was recorded in 1992..

[gadthrawn]

you forget that the original Melissa from Mercyful fate was from 1983. ;-)

[1kolesar]

I didn`t forget about old Melissa :) I prefer the old one.

but this song is fairly different...in my opinion.

the begining of Fear of the dark song is more similar to this one.. but I think it is just a coincidence. they are both GREAT bands, they don`t need to steal :)

[Maidensfan1]

Iron Maiden doesn't need to steal anybody else's song, they already have a bunch of good songs in their repertoire. Idiot...

[1kolesar]

I think you understood me wrong!

[15Iodas93]

Is it just me, or did Iron Maiden steal a part of the main guitar melody in the beginning of the song with Fear of the Dark?

[soademo]

Mellisa was the name of a skull kd used to have on stage

she is also a fictional charecter in kd songs

[kmnitz]

loved a gal named Melisa before, once or twice... I called her Mel.. hehe I need to bumb a smoke too, Mel.. Cheers hun...

[41cobiahunteR]

The solo at the end of this song is actually the one from the original trac. It's just set to a faster rythym.

[josher6]

where have i heard that clean melody before, isnt that from another song?

[saintlyclown]

This song Is A Sheer masterpeice

[glock164]

damn the solos on this song are fucking amazing

[HuevoPossessed]

exelente tema

y exepcional el mejor vocalista del inicio del black y ahora el padre del heavy :D

saludos

lml

[artvro78]

ohh!! mellisa esta noche te hago trizas!!! ohh!!

[artvro78]

ohhh!! melisa esta nochete hago trizas!!!

[Simpson654]

I was thinking about digging up the skull of my cousin whom I loved much, but I got such a shudder at the thought of actually doing it, I couldn't dig up her grave even if forced.

[sdylte]

dude !?

[ComaLies225]

Dude that is a little creepy...Better to let her rest peacefully. Speaking of bones, my sixth grade science teacher brought real bones to our class once. Got to touch it, it was awesome.

[fretburner18]

When you get to high school, take anatomy;)

[ComaLies225]

well I'm actually in college now, my high school lacked a lof of things. It's not that bad, nothing research can't do to cure my curiosity.

[slavemachinery666]

first song i heard by mercyful fate/king diamond and loved in from the first note

hail to the king!

[donminino777]

i love mercyful fate, this song kik ass metal forever \m/

[wicvelasq]

is Power Melodic Metal, no Black Metal, is True?

[omanp2007]

I love this song! GREAT! Beautiful and you are in my dream! You are my everything! OHHHHHHHHH!

From Tokyo!

[gueliing]

I think KD n' MF are like read a book, beacause He (King D') tells histories. I think he can draw a book or something like this.

[Valadimirdraov]

great movie if he made one too

[bLaMeFoRkiLLy]

the king start to write on a book in the early 90's, but he only has one or two sites because he didn't have much time there and later he forget the project ^^

i remember this because he said this in any interview.

[gam3rman]

this is my favorite mercyful fate song when it comes to king diamonds singing :)

[rocka6tha6fuka6]

Nice picture 0.o

[marcelo1533]

HAIL KING...CLASSIC!!!

[TurboJudas]

Melissa "Missy" is his sister that is murdered (possibly by himself in insanity) in the stories of the King Diamond albums "Them" (1988) and "Conspiracy" (1989). Creepy horror stories! His best in my opinion.

Unknowing of that concept this could also pose as a good "I've lost my girlfriend" song.

Great song!

[fa272]

Actually Melissa was the name of the human skull that Mercyful Fate used as a stage prop in the early 80's. It was stolen at a concert

[TurboJudas]

Yeah, I know, but there is several comments on that topic, so I wanted to comment about Melissa in the stories of the King Diamond records.

So the "stage prop Melissa" and his "story sister Melissa" are different topics.

[TurboJudas]

I should have written "Melissa is ALLSO his sister..." to avoid confusion.

[KeithLearmonth]

pretty sure it's his lover, not his sister.

[magick1969]

No it's not. Melissa dates back to the MF Album Melissa. This is the follow-up to this song: Melissa I'm kneeling in front of the altar Satan's cross upon the wall Strange emptiness, a crystal ball between two candles Melissa has entered another life Melissa, you were mine Melissa, you were the light She was a witch Why did they take you away? ....

[NatteUlver6]

I love this fuckin song

[420fungi]

god damn! my fuckin' face just melted, king just boned my ear-pussy with this song, awesome song! KD & MF- classic

[killoncommand]

Dam this is a classic!!! KD and MF rules!!! Still listening to this even after 20- years!!!

[cruellapoppycock]

i AM melissa oh melissa close your eyes and say king diamond should look me up because he would see its all about me. i am who this song is. mr king diamond lets make a video and reinvent melissa

[Stephane1974666]

The god KING DIAMOND

[gise1981]

just a classic from King!!!!

[S4NDUZ]

fkn awesome song !

[Acterterror]

hail from chile

[godoflatex]

GOOD SONG....

[winterolimini]

well...i dont give a shit...about the true story of the fuckin skeleton...or if he can go higher....just shut the fuck up and enjoy the music...if you wann apost stupid comments go post em at another page...like a jonas brothers song or any kind of bullshit like that...

[josh1630]

if diamond saw this he would shake his head at all of you come on who cares what happend in the past he would want us to jsut enjoy his music and the music of MF

[n4mel3ss]

Pretty creative. I only heard a few songs with King Diamond in 'em and I already know him by his passion for falsetto.

[Simpson654]

King dug up the the bones, and the skull was confiscated, so this song is to the new skull he dug up, Melissa 2, Is that you Melissa? King is dreaming in red now.

[mkicon]

Why does every music video on youtube turn into people arguing about another musical artist being "better"?

[Fenrisdisciple91]

mkicon (6 days ago) Why does every music video on youtube turn into people arguing about another musical artist being "better"?

lol no joke,,hahaha god its so true. lol

[ikvsabre]

yeah, it's pretty sad.

[Metalpefki]

ok but he's a good singer(personally i don't like his voice at all)but I think he can't be compared with dickinson...it's like comparing iron maiden with mercyful fate...mercyful fate is a great band but maiden is vvvvveeeeeeeerrrrrrryyyyyy better....

[Wrapped4]

Best Mercyful Fate song

[Metalpefki]

come on bruce dickinson is 100000000 times better than king diamond...

[Wrapped4]

It's a completely different style. I like Dickinson but wouldn't imagine him playing with Mercyful Fate

[diodude678]

dickinson=meh

king diamond is alright. he can go high, but he can't project his voice like dio or halford can, if that makes any sense. besides, there's people out there with higher voices. geoff tate, kiske and whatnot.

[Metalpefki]

meh?what does that mean?

I agree with mkicon there's no reason of arguing about these two artists..they're both legends!

:D

[xHeadbanger1000x]

what a badass song, wow dude

[cfermacht]

i would have liked to hear metallica throw this into the mercyful fate medly on garage inc. althought it would never be as cool as this version. FATE RULES FOREVER!!!!!!

[Szederp]

the solo at the end is heart-breaking!

[polomarroco]

go melissa!!!

[gene870621345]

Melissa was a skull that king diamond use to carry around, and somebody stole it.

[vaderhater223]

i think bruce dickinson and king are the same, but i think king has a little more range, iron maiden and king diamond both kickass though

[Evilgreenface]

I think King has more range,

King has his crazy Falsetto that turns your brain to shit.

MERCYFUL FATE \m/

[vaderhater223]

agreed

[Evilgreenface]

Not that Dickinson doesnt give people shitbrains.

[shankbeau6]

I hate to burst your bubble there dude...

A little more than just a skull...

Melissa....

Was King's girlfriend...

That was MURDERED many years ago...

[bacardibmx]

King Diamond had acquired a human skeleton that he named "Melissa". He used the femur bones to make his trademark microphone handle. The skull was apparently stolen during a show in the Netherlands.

[Fenrisdisciple91]

read your metal history dipshit. he acquired a skeleton he named melissa and it got stolen. like bacardibmx said. dipshit

[shankbeau6]

Son!... SON!!!... (And I don't call ya son 'cause ya shine) I'm 47 years old... I was probably listening to Fate.. When you were still shitting in your... FUCKIN PAMPERS! BOY!!! Don't get an attitude dude... That's the story of "Melissa".. That I've heard since I first bought it in 1983-84... SO FUCK OFF KNOW IT ALL!

[dickshmitz]

eat a bag of dicks... SON!

[shankbeau6]

A BAG OF DICKS?... That's a new one... I haven't heard from the junior high generation... Listen...anyone... GAY enough to use the word.. DICK... In his screen name.... DIPSHIT DICKSHMITZ... Prolly has throated a few large ones... Eh broth?... You like dick huh?... Bet your 3 incher make the junior high girls... SCREAM! You prolly like a little corn mixed in with the residue huh gay DICK? Later dick

[dickshmitz]

wah wah wah, nice language son. eat a bag of dicks.

[ikvsabre]

It's "SUCK a bag a dicks"

Louis CK rocks.

[ikvsabre]

It's actually from a Loius CK riff.

In his act, he said someone told him to go suck a bag of dicks. He then riffed on how weird that sounded.

[CaptainAmerica4Ever]

fav bands and singers ever king diamond,mercyful fate and bruce dickinson and iron maiden \m/

[RenatoPriester]

MELISSA IS VERY GOD,MUITO GOSTOSA

[megalliden]

esta cancion es muy buena, la sake cuando era chiko jaja...ahora no me akuerdo como era jeje...la sacare denuevo..pero terminare 1ro la alison hell de annihilaton jeje solo falta el solo xD...tambien me vino esa duda, quien mierda es melissa :S, sale en muchas de sus canciones, i think that she was some girlfriend of the past of this band singer :/

[masteema]

Melissa is everyone,everywhere, she is all things...

[TioPija]

melissa!!!!!!!!

[Modrogh]

Sorry about this, but Who is Melissa? Her name has been in many of these songs.

[RedcoatMic24]

A skeleton they used to take on stage, but kind of like a story they have going through albums, like Iron Maiden's Charlotte.

[Modrogh]

Okay, Thank you.

[jhblackmetal]

ha mellissa is a small skull king diamond carried around during the fate tours, but it was stolen at some show. its pretty funny you have to admit, how hes siging about it hah.

[86paulo95]

melisa tu estas en mis sueños

melisa cierra tus ojos y despidete

melisa ya no vages mas

cierra tus ojos y descansa en paz

[86paulo95]

maldita melisa dejaste que dios te lleve

[tolin430]

Judas Priest is the best metal for my I think but everyone has their favorite greetings!

[tolin430]

opinar

[Maidensfan1]

tiopija, Bruce Dickinson is the best singer alive. I respect King Diamond but Dickinson is the best...

[neintales]

Well I agree and disagree because they are two different types of metal and music. Bruce is the best in his genre and king diamond is best in his.

[TioPija]

king diamond is the best vocalist of metal of all times

[vindieulamarie]

one of the best

[Surrection75]

brilliant

[tchort99]

and if if were nuts and candies and buts we'd all have a nice x-mas

[serenasab]

In the song melissa,he says that she had escaped or something like that,now in this song king diamond says he found a skull,but remember the song name is "is that you melissa.so he found a skull but is it melissa?so he just kissed her soul so if its melissa he would have done it

[Simpson654]

It's really about the skull he lost because of idiots at customs. Melissa was the skull, and King Diamond had to get another human skull because you can't have human skulls... Is That You Melissa is about the new skull called Melissa.

[Roager76]

Melissa was a witch from Holland;so i heard a long ago.333..

[tokepassrepeat]

Isn't Melisa also his supposed dead sister or is Missy a different person?

[Frankingsteins]

I never thought of that, but probably not considering they're from different bands. I don't think Diamond's discographies have the same tenuously contrived continuity as Arjen Lucassen's for example.

[ItalianWarrior777]

This is just...unbelievable!

[gobigred97]

I couldn't agree with you more!!!

[ItalianWarrior777]

Tears rolled down my face, as I think of the pain and sadness of still loving someone who has just past away....King Diamond is awesome, bringing these emotions alive...

[Mercyfulfateskater]

melissa is a skull he had, not a dead person i think

[ItalianWarrior777]

Yeah, but in the song it represented a real woman that had passed away

[zombiehorde99]

maybe it was about the skull of the woman who passed away?

[ItalianWarrior777]

it's deep and sad, pain is real, just like love is real...

[tech9k2]

3rd page last commen = ]

[TwentyFive2Life]

and he carries the skull 'melissa' to live concerts.. kinda creepy if you ask me, but their music more than makes up for it.

[ItalianWarrior777]

The creepiness is what makes it beautiful..:)

[morningstar223]

are you ready to have your socks rocked off? oh yes my friend, this song can do that for you!

[KingDiamondBat]

Best band ever

[Mawgwa]

Meryful Fate rules, wish they had a reuion tour, that would kick ass!

[Perak0]

\m/(o`.´O)\m/ I salute to you mercyful!

[ErzsebetBathory98]

buenisimo tema

me encanta esta cancion!!

[marco7alcantara]

o mercy e simplesmente unico e esse som e maravi

[ajuago]

one of the best band awesome song ^_^

[Wowfreak321]

Very good band!

[Arlecchino7]

this is really a great song,i really respect this band a lot.

[aristocratickiller]

"Melissa" is the name of a skull King Diamond used to carry on stage, and also a fictional deceased witch that appears in three songs. Before the recordings of the album Melisasa, King Diamond had acquired a human skeleton that he named "Melissa". He used the femur bones to make his trademark microphone handle. The skull was apparently stolen during a show in the Netherlands.

after that he made 3 songs to honor it, Melissa, Come to the sabbath, and Is that you Melissa

[DrTrasebFfs]

Its true, except that he got his skull back last year from a fan.

Yea i heard that he got Melissa back but King Diamond said he Still waiting for the skull.
