Tobias Jens Forge (Swedish pronunciation: [tʊˈbǐːas ˈjɛns ˈfɔ̌rːɡɛ]; born March 3, 1981) is a Swedish singer-songwriter and actor. He is the leader and primary songwriter of the masked Occult-rock band Ghost , performing live as their vocalist under the stage names Papa Emeritus and Cardinal Copia .
- Tobias Forge did not want to be the singer of Ghost — or a singer at all. "Even when I was a kid, I always sort of identified myself with Keith Richards and Slash more than the singers of the bands," Forge told us.
- The first Ghost song was written with Swedish lyrics and Forge's former Repugnant bandmate helped him record it. In 2006, Forge wrote a song called "Stand by Him" with Swedish lyrics; musically, it was unlike anything he had written in the past.
- When he recorded Ghost's first songs in 2008, Forge was married with two kids and worked at a call center for a Swedish mobile phone company. "You can regard my life and say that not a whole lot happened before that," he said.
- Forge's older brother Sebastian, who was a huge influence on him, died the same day Tobias posted the first Ghost songs online, and the musician has come to think of the coincidence as an example of energy transference.
