Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos (born December 19, 1967), better known by the stage name Criss Angel, is an American magician and illusionist. He is best known for starring in the television show, Criss Angel Mindfreak and his live performance illusion show Criss Angel Believe in artistic collaboration with Cirque du Soleil at the Luxor casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Angel is also the creator of the MagicPlace.com.
Angel's childhood interest in magic grew as he aged and by the time he graduated from East Meadow High School, he decided to pursue a career as a professional magician instead of attending college as his parents wanted. Angel is of Greek descent.
Criss Angel was the creator, director, and executive producer of the A&E Network show Criss Angel Mindfreak. Seasons 1 and 2 were filmed at The Aladdin in Las Vegas, with Season 3 at the Luxor Las Vegas. Premiering on July 20, 2005, the show's illusions have included walking on water, levitating, walking up the side of Luxor Hotel (in the light of 39 focused lamps that can be seen from space), floating between two buildings, causing a Lamborghini to disappear, surviving in an exploding C4 Crate, cutting himself in half in full view of an audience and getting run over by a steamroller while lying on a bed of broken glass. While making season 3 Angel was injured jumping out of a moving car and stopped production for 2 weeks.
Twenty one years of my life to go
Have I lost myself to someone else?
Truth, lie, to live or die
Makes no difference if you're never fuckin try
I know I'd die for you
(if you want me to)
Feed off my sorrow
(if you want me to)
I know I'd die for you
(if you want me to)
Bleed for tomorrow
(if you want me to)
Will you die for me
But will you die for me?
See me standing so fucking cool
Wish you could be like me, a fool?
Truth, lie, to live or die
Makes no difference if you're never gonna fuckin try
I know I'd die for you
(if you want me to)
Feed off my sorrow
(if you want me to)
I know I'd die for you
(if you want me to)
Bleed for tomorrow
(if you want me to)
I know I'd die for you
(if you want me to)
Feed off my sorrow
(if you want me to)
I know I'd die for you
(if you want me to)
Bleed for tomorrow
(if you want me to)
But will you die for me?
But will you die for me?
I want you to...
I want you to...
I want you to...
