Most bardcore artists out there are just doing it digitally. I'm not saying they're not good, or talented... but there's a lot more to be said about 1 guy playing 10 different instruments, and mastering it all together.
Algal is the absolute GOAT!
Algal the BARD is the real deal when it comes to bardcore :D. Toss a coin to your bard!
Amen to that! 🤘🏼
Indeed. When I first grew interested in this genre, I was baffled by how many search results I was getting. And then they were all digital music. Nobody really does it like Algal the Legendary Bard.
100%
I think you and Hildegard von Blingin' should collaborate on this one; I think Kate Bush's lyrics would medievalise!
That would be AMAZING!!!
I concur.
Make this happen!
I wholeheartedly request and encourage this
Please please do this
Out of all the channels making medieval covers of songs, yours is by FAR my favorite because you put so much work and effort into playing each instrument instead of using samples and it sounds so magical and authentic!! Always love seeing you in my subscription box 💙💙💙💖
Yes, this is the key difference. Sounds genuine and rich
*Do other channels like that even exist?*
Same.
How many bardcore channels are there?
@@drewdabbs418 Quite a few since it became a thing in April 2020.
I love when shows I don't watch use my favorite songs cause that means I get to hear so many nice covers
Same! I might even go watch an episode of this one.
This is the kind of positivity the world needs
On the other hand, overplaying songs wears them out and makes them annoying. I actually had to tell Amazon music to never play this song again because it was playing it at least once every hour.
What show?
@@timtom4021 Stranger Things.
This is definitely a tune that I would imagine could actually be popular during medieval times. Great rendition!
Ye olde Netflixos presenteth: strangeth things.
"That's really quite lovely" - my husband, Kate Bush fan for over 20 years.
He's right.
I'd gotten a bit sick of the covers of this one, but I was glad to see yours. You did not disappoint. Kate Bush's family came out of Ireland, so using the tin whistle for the vocal line is pretty much flawless.
Just imagining a lone warrior on horseback galloping across the land, the wind gently kissing his flesh as he sets out on some quest. Reflections of himself and what he must do can almost be heard echoing from the corners of his mind through the hills and forests like the calls of wildlife. I love beautiful music like this that lets my imagination run free, nicely done!
This bard can defo +10 motivation to the party and give -10 defence to the enemy in a Stranger DnD type game
I want Eddie back! 🤘🥺🤘
@@MAGA_Patriot2024 I feel you might get him back. As a henchman or costume of Vecna.
@@Nhytewulf that would be a huge mistake on the duffer bros parts. Yeah, that would devastate Dustin to see that (and especially if he has to destroy him), and to do that would turn off his apparently huge fan base.
@@MAGA_Patriot2024 Mark my words: Vecna will use the empty body of Max and will raise Eddie from the dead. He might even give him a special weapon (Blackrazor) In the end, Dustin will get through to Eddie, and he will betray Vecna. Meanwhile Eleven has to fight Vecna for the "soul" of Max to save her.
Stranger DnD????
Hounds of Love already has a medieval/folk vibe to it, so it lends itself well to this. Would love to hear the whole album Bard style!
'specially Jig of Life :)
Would be magical
Ah, indeed the music from good ol’ times…. This is heavenly! I remember seeing a young Lady Kate of Bush playing this tune on a night a the Tavern in 1246, I was a great friend of hers, what a pure hearted dame!
Is that a duduk? It’s so mellow and beautiful. Bravo as always! 🎶
@Hildegard von Blingin' I think Kate Bush's lyrics would medievalise...
But it probably wouldn't be QUITE as good as "Holding out for a Hero"...
Get together. Please make this a duet.
Why is this cover so handsome!!!
Not only do I love the music, but I also love that you put exactly what instruments you use to play this music. I love it when I find new instruments in your music.
You, Cornelius Link, and Hildegard are carrying the Bardcore genre with your amazing efforts and talents! Always excited when you upload!
Immediately fell in love with this version TT_TT
Algal plays an inspirational song for the party.
Player to DM: So, how many inspirational dice do we get?
DM: ("sobs") All of them.
This song has something special, tears brimming and your version is genuine and soothing. Kate Bush must be proud of this great version, you deserve more listeners!
I would've never thought such a modern style song ( although a it's a very good song ) could sound so good in the medieval style , but actually it does !
I think that Hildegard von Blingin' should medievalise the lyrics as I think they would medievalise very well. But it probably wouldn't be quite as good as Holding out for a Hero...
Your covers bring tears to my eyes man. Thank you for everything you do!
Beautifully played good Bard! You are a credit to your trade and calling!!
Something about this style makes everything sound better ☺️
The duduk sounds great👌
Just watched the last episode last night… I’m not crying 🥲
For that and some other reasons when I hear talk about bards, I remember the Algal's name. Gosh bless you my friend!
Genuinely appreciating listening to real instruments. Thank you for sharing your videos. Sometimes it is difficult to find instruments amongst the digital sounds these days
Absolutely love the duduk! I thought it was a shawm at first because of the obvious double reed sound. Much enjoyment!
To keep it short and clean: You certainly did this song incredible justice here. Superb!
Vocal parts played on a flute sounds magically!
This seriously gave me the chills because of how good it is.
Absolutely beautiful brother. Many thanks and blessings from the UK..
Gather 'round ye fine folk, and I shall regale you with the tale of how my band of knights did merrily slay a rampaging demogorgon in the burg of Hawkins.
I would love to see a concert of all these covers, in a small theater in Italy.
Really wonderful music🤟
… in a small pub in the Italian countryside … 👍
I bet Kate would be impressed ☘️🌹
This man is an inspiration to millions for his musical talent, gifted man your music is a blessing to your listeners
Your way of playing is purifying to the soul. What ever was weighing me down just disintegrated. Thank you so much for this incredible rendition of the song.
this shit so impressive
These songs sound so authentic in this form.
I wish Disney hired you for the new Willow to do their pop song covers.
I adore your covers. Such perfect understanding of what each instrument can bring to the composition. This is simply beautiful. Thank you 😊
Liked it before even listening to this masterpiece.
Me too!
Beautiful, bravo, bring that bard some mead
Dude that was hauntingly beautiful!
The only thing that could possibly make this better is if Hildegard sang it with you. Stunning cover, and to be honest I like your non-vocal covers, they're perfect for relaxing/studying/working to ❤
Yes I think the lyrics would medievalise but it probably wouldn't be QUITE as good as Holding Out For A Hero...
The original song was nowhere near as well known as Holding out for a Hero before Stranger Things; I knew of it but never heard it...
@@danielsellers8707 I'm gonna have to disagree there, Running Up That Hill is one of Kate Bush's anthems. If you're below a certain age then ST probably made it known to you but for those of us who grew up in the 90's and earlier, it's just as big as anything Bonnie Tyler has done.
@@Peacefulpreface6323 I meant the lyrics would medievalise but I like Hildegard von Blingin's Holding out for a Hero so it would be a tough act to follow...
Excellent performance.
Auditively and aesthetically pleasing.
Algal the great bard I swear if it was medieval times I spend a many quest searching for you to take you on my adventures
Beautiful, just beautiful...
Yup this guy badass 😎🤘🏻
I love how your name and your logo resembles Agalloch but yet you're so unique that it doesn't resemble the band at all, you're my new favorite
Perfect!
I remember this song from Bookflix sometimes 1022 A.D.
I saw the new video pop up in my subscriptions and thought nah, I love the original - especially the voice, this won't work. Oh boy am I glad I was wrong! The flute and duduk are magic together.
Thank you for another great tune Agal!
Omg its so stuning and medieval vibe. My favorite in your work
as always, incredible work, you have an astonishing talent
Ye olde instruments never get old. The art of physical audio should never die despite what technology we come up with. Live music performed with non-electric instruments, with a pint on your hand... it's something else. Great versions.
Very glad i stumbled across your channel, this is a beautiful cover. I can imagine dances around the bonfires to this music. Thank you!
I greatly appreciate the variety of different instruments you play. Tremendous talent!
Here before the mill...
I loved it!! I'm looking forward to find it in spotify
Que maravilla escuchar las canciones como hubieran sonado hace 600 años, y hubieran sonado mejor que ahora.
Ufff.... Terrible temon! Cada instrumento habla y entre todos se convierten en una hermosa historia. Exito hermano!!! El arte hecha música 🎶 🎶 🎶
Translation: "Each instrument speaks and together they become a beautiful story. Success brother!!! Art made music"
You're welcome 😉
@@windsongshf you missed “Phew…. Terrible fear!” However thank you kindly
@@dez2002 I have no idea what the OP means with that, though
@@IsntTheInternetGreat absolutely no clue
@@IsntTheInternetGreat I don't speak Spanish, but in French "terrible" can mean terrific, and I gather it's the same thing in Spanish. Temon is a form of tema, meaning song.
Simply beautiful and magical! Bravo!
oooh my god!!! i need one paranoid cover hahaha
When I discovered your channel, I fell in love with the vids. Honestly I could listen to this all day.
Exceptional! And love the instruments you chose for this.
Another amazing cover!
Literally the best 🔥🔥❤
Chrono cross vibes!!!!!
This is just too awesome!!! Great work as always Algal ❤
You're a genius! Love it!!!
Subbed for sure, thanks for these covers Algy!

Oh my god this is gorrrrrgeous. Immediately put me in a great mood and relaxed me. Your compositions are always so thoughtful and beautiful. Thank you for making music.
