KING DIAMOND B-DAY / MERCYFUL FATE : THE UNINVITED GUEST

Οι Δανοί Mercyful Fate ήταν από τα αγαπητά μου μέταλ γκρουπ των ’80s και ’90s. Δικό τους κομμάτι ήταν το σήμα μιας από τις εκπομπές μου στον Εν Λευκώ. Τα τελευταία χρόνια έχω χάσει επαφή, αλλά είδα ότι σήμερα έχει γενέθλια ο King Diamond [14 Ιουνίου 1956]. Έψαξα και βρήκα αυτό το βίντεο από το Into The Unknown [1994].

Mercyful Fate from Denmark was one of my favorite metal bands in the ’80s and ’90s. I used a song of theirs as an intro for one of my radio shows. In recent years I ‘ve lost contact, but seeing that today is King Diamond‘ s birthday [June 14, 1956] I looked up and found this video from Into The Unknown [1994].

      They are not well known outside the metal community. But to them they’re legends!
      Thanks!

          I was a great Metallica fan too. Metallica have great respect for King Diamond / Mercyful Fate. The have covered songs of them, members of the two bands have also played together live!!!
          Thanks again!
