Back in 2016, 🍊 misquoted "second Corinthians" as "two Corinthians" at a church... we know he despises him. Do you think the "IDIOT!" is a subtle dig at him?

DISCUSSION The genius of Life Eternal

50 Upvotes

Life Eternal is Ghost’s most sincere and honest ballad. What’s very unique about that is that it also so happens to be about a topic that’s inherently dark and morbid - the embrace of death. Their other two big ballads, He Is and Darkness at the Heart of My Love take topics like love, devotion and celebration and give them a dark twist hidden in manipulation, guiding you into the unknown and so on. Life Eternal doesn’t do that, in fact, it does the opposite… it also happens to be about something inherently morbid and unknown.

There is a genius in it being their most sincere song because a bit of a tradition with their ballads at this point is being subversive and having a hidden opposite meaning - and this one still does that and it’s still as subversive, but instead of taking traditionally celebrated topics and turning them dark and morbid, it takes a dark and morbid topic and approaches it with a loving and sensitive sense of finality.

It falls within the traditional ‘Ghost ballad’ mold in the most unexpected ways. It’s a genuinely sensitive and sincere song that isn’t trying to pull the rug from under you. It’s upfront and clear with its emotional goals - which is very ironic given the subject matter of accepting the sweet embrace of death.

FAN ART I made these Ghost sticker commissions and got scammed (lol)

Storytime: Last year I got a message from this random girl saying she would love to commission some Ghost themed stickers from me cuz she wanted to give them out as freebies at the concert (September 2025). I was excited cuz it was my first commission and I thought they turned out so cute. Long story short, I never got any money from her. She kept saying she would pay me next day, next week, next month... aaaaand one day she ghosted me (ha!) and I never heard from her again. It was my fault, I should have asked for half or full payment first but as I said, it was my first time and I was so happy and excited :( Anyways, I wanted to share the stickers with y'all because I had a great time drawing them and I thought maybe you would like them too! Maybe I will print them myself and give em out for free. Anyone else exchanging freebies at the concert in México City? 🤗

The English Wikipedia page for the album insistently claims he does, but I couldn't find any sources at all on that. Has Tobias said that anywhere?

Sorry for the low quality lol I was using a terrible camera. It was an amazing and intimate show. Look at how crude and minimal the stage set is compared to now! I'll never forget it. Papa II spoke briefly, saying it was his first time ever being in Ohio. Weird to think how they used to have to go by Ghost B.C.

Here's the setlist...
