The one that made me smile the most is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkpxEezTu4s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkpxEezTu4s
The main melody and these cliché medieval chords are a fit made in heaven.
I find that most of the stuff on YouTube lacks this kind of cleverness though.
- est31 6y agoMy favourite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxbufWzX1NA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxbufWzX1NA I really like the bass. The pirates of the Caribbean theme fits really nicely as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95M9UsQS2HI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95M9UsQS2HI Probably helps that the original music was made for and recorded on classical instruments. If you like vocals in ancient english: https://www.youtube.com/user/9freakydarling9 https://www.youtube.com/user/9freakydarling9
- hannasanarion 6y agoHildegard von Blingin doesn't do "ancient english", that's early modern English, c. 16th century. This account is the only one I have found using early medieval dialects: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbVcb9puAsOhXBT2_XPFf-A https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbVcb9puAsOhXBT2_XPFf-A
- est31 6y agoI used the term "ancient" as an indication that it was older than the contemporary english because I didn't know which category it fell into, whether it was old english, middle english, or, as you say, early modern english. Thanks for naming the right category.
- notahacker 6y agoJust a shame there were no vocals for the almost-period-appropriate lyrics, (and they were a lot less inspired by medieval myths than some of the other English metal songs of the time) No lyrics for the 'bardcore' versions of Stairway either: perhaps they could borrow them from this Gregorian chant version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKn5lydAZ6k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKn5lydAZ6k
