Our adorably naive opera singer finally reacts to KISS

May 5, 2024 Alan Cross 0 Comments 0 min read

I love these reaction videos by Elizabeth Zharoff, who was so busy learning to be a professional opera singer that she missed out on pretty much everything in the world of rock. She’s now making a nice living by reacting to songs we know but ones she’s never heard, trading under the name The Charismatic Voice.

I quote from the description of this video:

“For a few years now, I’ve heard a lot about KISS and have been told of their legacy within the realm of Rock. I even recognize some of the face paint, though I’ve never heard their sound before. I’m going in blind, and realized early on that there’s two camps here: those that love KISS, and those that loathe them. Which camp will I be in?”

Let’s find out.
