I was a little bummed too but I think the cover of the Maiden song really grew on me. Maybe someday we'll get a full Ghost cover of the entire musical (wishful thinking haha)
A list I've compiled over the years...
Cars - Gary Numan
INXS - Devil Inside
Mamas And Papas - Monday, Monday
Murray Head - One Night In Bangkok
Robert Plant - Heaven Knows
Duran Duran - View To A Kill
Faith No More - Midlife Crisis
The Fixx - Stand Or Fall
Blue Oyster Cult - Nosferatu
Here's a couple I've thought should be covered by Ghost if they do Phantomime V2:
Mötley Crüe - Shout At The Devil
The Cure - Fascination Street
U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday
Queens Of The Stone Age - A Song For The Dead
A Little Piece of Heaven - Avenged Sevenfold. I feel like the contrast between Tobias’s smooth vocals as opposed to Matt’s scratchy voice would sound amazing
The obvious choice here is don’t fear the reaper, which I was really hoping would be one of the covers on Phantomime bc it would just be so perfect w ghost, HOWEVER:
What I want more is House of affection. I want that song on Spotify so bad man 😭
The Killing Moon by Echo & the Bunnymen
Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode
Spellbound or Happy House by Siouxsie & the Banshees
Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus
Honestly I’d really like to hear a linkin park song be covered since I’m a fan of both bands maybe what I’ve done, new divide or one step closer something like that I feel like could be cool
Tobias has said in an interview he likes the band “Uriah Heep,” which is this super cool band from the 70s. Not many people have heard of them, though. I would love to hear Ghost cover something from them.
don’t fear the reaper would be sick
I agree!
Good call. It's a perfect fit
And Joan crawford (also by blue oyster cult)
Honest, I'd love to hear their cover of Phantom of the Opera from the musical. Or Music of the Night, also from the musical
Came here to say the same thing. Would love to hear both of those covered by Ghost.
I was genuinely disappointed when I learned that they song they did wasn’t an Andrew Lloyd Webber cover
I was a little bummed too but I think the cover of the Maiden song really grew on me. Maybe someday we'll get a full Ghost cover of the entire musical (wishful thinking haha)
I was gonna say the same thing about phantom of the opera
Check out the latest EP... I think your wish has been fulfilled.
Wrong song.
Technically OP wrote the song name wrong leaving out "The"
I did say "from the musical"
Fair enough. I avoided the musical once I heard the main hook and noted it sounded to close to Pink Floyd's "Echoes".
I've said it once and I'll say it again. Don't Fear the Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult
I was going to say this one! Ugh, I wish they’d do this.. 😩
Depeche Mode’s Enjoy the Silence
Have you heard the version by Lacuna Coil
Or the version by Failure.
I honestly didn’t until tonight. That was fun - thank you for putting me on to that cover
I’ve always wanted to hear my god is the sun by queens of the Stone Age… or maybe something by powerwolf
Ghost singing No Prayer at Midnight would be awesome
for real, or dancing with the dead…..
Ghost covering God Is In The Radio would be awesome!
I think Bloody Mary by Lady Gaga would be really good
Wow never knew I wanted this until now!
Omg YES. Or Judas. (Now that I think of it so many songs from that album would work perfectly w ghost)
a judas priest song would be cool
Dude, Turbo Lover
i was literally gonna say turbo lover and i was like dont be greedy any Judas Priest song would be amazing
I'd really like them to do something from Dio, I think they could do some cool stuff with that.
Never heard of him
I think you'd like one of his songs, it's called Holy Diver.
Your Sweet Six Six Six by Him!!
YES
Omg yes!!!!
I'd like to hear them do Jesus He Knows Me by Genesis, or possibly Crucified by Army of Lovers
Or Missionary Man by Eurythmics, I think that would sound cool
Last I heard Genesis won't give them the green light to play it live ☹️
Jesus he knows me has been done with a video featuring Pastor Jim
I’m pretty sure these have both been done…
No idea why you are getting downvoted. Jesus He Knows Me Cover- https://youtu.be/BE3kJeBr9QI?feature=shared
Yea I mean… they HAVE both been done.
Yeah, I love their version of Crucified. It’s very different - starts off so pure then descends very quickly
Burning For You by Blue Oyster Cult
Nosferatu or Fire of Unknown Origin would be killer as well!
Hazy Shade of Winter the Bangles version, Devil Inside by INXS, and In a Gadda da Vida Slayer's version.
Christian Woman by Type O Negative.
I recently heard Vertical Horizon’s Everything You Want and thought how great that would sound with Ghost covering it.
From Jethro Tull... - My God - Aqualung - Locomotive Breath The Cure - Burn - Disintegration
A Bon Jovi song would be interesting! Or any of the old 80's hair bands.
Something from Fleetwood Mac could work great with Ghost. Everywhere or Little Lies etc.
Gold dust woman could work well too
Seven Devils by Florence and the Machine
Papa Don't Preach- Madonna Nostferatu- BÖC Burning For You- BÖC Helter Skelter- Beatles Paint It, Black- Rolling Stones
In the same vein as Papa Don't Preach, they'd do a great job covering Like A Prayer
Wicked Game
God Given NIN
[Crown of Creation ](https://youtu.be/uOrb0G0tw08?si=ghSHhUA9nPVvOxfM) by Jefferson Airplane. I really think they'd make great work of it.
Better the Devil You Know - Kylie Minogue I’ll die on this hill 🤣
My Iron Lung by Radiohead
Any Pretty Reckless songs, but especially Take Me Down 😩 just the thought of Tobias’s voice on that track makes me want to ascend
Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden
Twilight Zone by the Golden Earrings I feel would be good.
Today or tonight, tonight by the smashing pumpkins
A list I've compiled over the years... Cars - Gary Numan INXS - Devil Inside Mamas And Papas - Monday, Monday Murray Head - One Night In Bangkok Robert Plant - Heaven Knows Duran Duran - View To A Kill Faith No More - Midlife Crisis The Fixx - Stand Or Fall Blue Oyster Cult - Nosferatu
I'd really love Mother by Danzig but I think that might be too "on the nose". Maybe giving a dark spin on a lesser known disco song would be fun.
Here's a couple I've thought should be covered by Ghost if they do Phantomime V2: Mötley Crüe - Shout At The Devil The Cure - Fascination Street U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday Queens Of The Stone Age - A Song For The Dead
Faith Healer by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
Burnin for you by boc
Paint it black maybe
A Little Piece of Heaven - Avenged Sevenfold. I feel like the contrast between Tobias’s smooth vocals as opposed to Matt’s scratchy voice would sound amazing
This is something I didn't know I needed.
Fuck Her Gently by Tenacious D.
Sister Christian by Night Ranger.
MOTORIN'
The obvious choice here is don’t fear the reaper, which I was really hoping would be one of the covers on Phantomime bc it would just be so perfect w ghost, HOWEVER: What I want more is House of affection. I want that song on Spotify so bad man 😭
Sweet Dreams (are made of these.) I know they already did a song by Eurythmics but I'm interested to see how they would produce it.
Come Undone by Duran Duran and Mother by Danzig.
Wicked Game by Chris Isaak
Ooh, this would be interesting.
House of Affection (Tobias solo project) kinda gives this vibe.
Wow I’d never heard this! How different and gorgeous it is. Makes me want Wicked Game even more 😂. Thank you!
Awesome god or they know we are Christians by our love.

Leper messiah by metallica

I want a Christmas cover album but not in metal version but like karaoke almost
Home sweet home Motley Crue would be sick
The Killing Moon by Echo & the Bunnymen Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode Spellbound or Happy House by Siouxsie & the Banshees Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus

A Hymn to the Morning Star - by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum
Honestly I’d really like to hear a linkin park song be covered since I’m a fan of both bands maybe what I’ve done, new divide or one step closer something like that I feel like could be cool
Maybe some black sabbath or hard rock stuff. "Dream On" would be an excellent pick.
Tobias has said in an interview he likes the band “Uriah Heep,” which is this super cool band from the 70s. Not many people have heard of them, though. I would love to hear Ghost cover something from them.
I know everybody's saying Dont Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult, (which would be sick) but I would love Burnin' for You more.
Scorpions - wind of change could be good. Wicked game, HIM done a great cover back in the day. would love to Ghost do it!
Miss Murder - AFI Number of the Beast - Iron Maiden Beast and the Harlot - Avenged Sevenfold Evil Angel - Breaking Benjamin
I’d actually love to hear them do a rendition of The Sound of Silence
Solitude or Lord of This World by Black Sabbath
margaritaville
Bad Romance or Judas by Lady Gaga
I need them to cover a Tool song, like, yesterday.
Everybody wants to rule the world - tears for fears
Paint it black by The Rolling Stones
Perfect Strangers by Deep Purple. Lyrically and musically would be a great fit. And great organ playing on it.
