    wow i love this cover but the irony is that the original song always sounded so sad to me that i can't really find much of the difference of this cover and the original in terms of the sadness it brings me (let aside the other feelings). They're just both sad. The original has a more overwhelming sense of emotions, though i like the calming sadness of this version too.

    I've noticed as a musician that a lot of people when they "transform" songs that they do it extremely simply, to make it lofi you add a filter and a lot of reverb and it's done. I went into this expecting to hear the crackling sound filter and too much compression, but I was pleasantly surprised, good job :D

      I'd argue that was the point of the original song. The grand melody contrasted with the lyrics, highlighting the highs the narrator had as a king, before at the end the music sober up to deliver the sad undertone. Reminded me of Ozymandias by Percy Shelley, where the grandiose claims hammered down further the sombre reality of the story.

      It’s because it’s taken from the lost last speech of the king of France before his execution during the French Revolution, he tried to give a speech but the crowd booed and told them to get on with it, so they guillotined him before he could truly give his last speech

    There is a special and unique word in portuguese called "saudade", which no other language has. Saudade is the word we use to refer to the feeling of missing something or someone (ex: i am with saudades of you). The violin of the original song by Coldplay is just impecable at manifesting what saudade feels like. The drums when he talks about Jerusalem's bells perfectly summons a rising kingdom, the citizens in joy, the soldiers won the battle, the bard conquered his loved one, everything is beautiful the harmony is impecable. This guy's version is very good but the original version is simply an unmatched, unique and perfect masterpiece.

    As a french, this song hits so much. It talks about French Revolution and the day when the french killed Louis XVI (revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate) in 1793. Before his execution, he wanted to give a speech but they didn't let him and he died without having the possibility to say the last few words to the French audience. That's kinda sad when you think of it.
    And some of the references in the original song are really related to him :
    "I held the key" = this phrase has of course a metaphorical meaning but also referred to Louis' passion: locksmithing.
    That's funny because before I never really paid intention to the lyrics but now it seems so clear to me

    한글 자막 ver.
    I used to rule the world
    [난 세상을 지배했었지]
    Seas would rise when I gave the word
    [내가 명령하면 바다까지 솟아 올랐어]
    Now in the morning I sleep alone
    [하지만 이제 아침에 난 홀로 잠들고]
    Sweep the streets I used to own
    [과거 내 것이였던 거리를 날려 보냈지]
    I used to roll the dice
    [난 주사위를 굴리곤 했어]
    Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
    [적의 눈에 생긴 두려움을 즐겼지]
    Listen as the crowd would sing
    [군중들이 노래하는듯한 환청이 들려와]
    Now the old king is dead, Long live the king
    [이제 늙은 왕은 죽었어, 왕이시여 만수무강하소서]
    One minute I held the key
    [한순간 내가 열쇠를 쥐고 있었지만]
    Next the walls were closed on me
    [그 순간 벽들이 나를 가로막았고]
    And I discovered that my castles stand
    [그때 나는 내 성이 무엇으로 지어졌는지 깨달았지]
    Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
    [내 성은 소금과 모래로 만든 기둥일 뿐인것을]
    I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
    [난 예루살렘의 종이 울리는 것을 들었고]
    Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
    [로마 기병대의 합창대가 노래했지]

    [당신이 왕의 자리로 간다면 절대로]
    Never a honest word
    [진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거라고]
    And that was when I ruled the world
    [그리고 이건 한때 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네]
    It was a wicked and wild wind
    [그건 사악하고 거친 바람이었어]
    Blew down the doors to let me in
    [나를 들어가게 하기위해 바람을 불어왔지]
    Shattered windows and the sound of drums
    [산산조각난 창문과 북치는 소리가 들려와]
    People couldn't believe what I'd become
    [사람들은 내가 어떻게 될 지 믿지 못할거야]
    Revolutionaries wait
    [혁명가들이 기다리는 것은]
    For my head on a silver plate
    [은쟁반 위에 올려진 내 머리이고]

    [그저 한가닥의 외로운 실이 연결된 꼭두각시일 뿐이야]

      Basically u need two tools the key of the song and the circle of fifths. Every song (or part of a song in some cases) is written in a key, which could be major (happy tone) or minor (sad tone). Every key has a set of notes and a set of chords u can use to compose your song. The "circle of fifths" is a scheme that can be used to link a major key to its relative minor (e.g. if a song is in C major to make it sad u have to change alla C chords in Am chords, all E notes in Eb notes, all A notes in Ab notes and so on)

    The original had a very nostalgic feel to it while this has a more sad song vibe to it. I kinda like the original more cause of the nostalgic chords that carried it through. But i like this one as well cause it's something i can just play and vibe with

      @@roanoord6436 So very well said, sir or ma'am. You know, this hits really close to home for me, as I have also been through this. And I'll tell you too, that it's hard asf. But like you said, it makes you stronger. Like people say, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I've learnt a lot in my life from a incredibly young age. But I'm grateful for it because now I'm stronger than most adults, and I'm a teenager. People my age are making huge mistakes that shape the rest of their lives, while I see the difference between right and wrong, clearly. It's because I've learnt to do so. And after all that, I still get to teach others lessons about life, and guide them in some way I can. So they don't go on, to make the same mistakes as I did.

    This song really echoes on my pretty short 16 years of living in this floating ball of rock. I was an academic achiever back then on my elementary days, I always had what i wanted, everyone would be very happy to see me, its like im famous or something and everyone would just like me, they'd treat me right and basically everyone liked me, until one day, i lost the academic achievements, those achievements are like everything to me back then but i only realized it pretty recently, i started with an academic achiever streak to just a student until i reached rock bottom, which is now, now i even receive failing grades. I was on top of the world, I had a taste on what being the best feels like, and tbh it felt really amazing, now i lose the most important friends and people because of being irresponsible and being a stupid person.
    If you've reached this far and you relate to what im saying, if you are irresponsible and lazy as well, learn this lesson "Be Responsible, Work Hard And Smart" and change your life. I'd like to turn my life around, i hope you can turn yours as well.

      I'd like to turn my life around too, it would happen some day eventually, there's no way we could continue living like this, but still somehow that day feels far. Of course it would just take a change of attitude, but after a couple of years of not changing it gets demoralising. there are so many factors i could blame(such as covid and hanging out with a sketchy crowd), but im unconvinced, it's definitely my fault. im 16 too, and it was nice seeing this message, because of how much i resonate with it. I hope we both turn our lives around as soon as possible. Ahem. Let's go! We can do it!

    __Lyrics__
    I used to rule the world
    Seas would rise when I gave the word
    Now in the morning I sleep alone
    Sweep the streets I used to own
    I used to roll the dice
    Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
    Listened as the crowd would sing
    Now the old king is dead!
    Long live the king!
    One minute I held the key
    Next the walls were closed on me
    And I discovered that my castles stand
    Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
    I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
    Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
    Be my mirror, my sword and shield
    My missionaries in a foreign field
    For some reason I can't explain
    Once you'd gone, there was never
    Never an honest word
    That was when I ruled the world
    It was the wicked and wild wind
    Blew down the doors to let me in
    Shattered windows and the sound of drums
    People couldn't believe what I'd become
    Revolutionaries wait
    For my head on a silver plate
    Just a puppet on a lonely string
    Oh, who would ever want to be king?
    I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
    Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
    Be my mirror, my sword and shield
    My missionaries in a foreign field
    For some reason I can't explain
    I know Saint Peter won't call my name
    Never an honest word
    But that was when I ruled the world
    Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
    Never an honest word
    But that was when I ruled the world

    This version matches the 'lyrics' and base of the song, but the original matches the setting, the chaotic, loud crowd of the revolution, awaiting King Louis' execution. This version sounds like it would be used in a quiet area, looking back on past mistakes- but the original really captures the essence of the loud setting: Everyone booing and yelling words, the execution being rushed, King Louis having mere minutes to say his final speech, even whilst no one listens. Both are superb in their own way but I personally believe the original is made to capture the settings and emotions of the base of the song, the meaning.

    • @Acciaw

    I find that this song is very symbolic because it’s obviously about the King of France but for me it also meant how someone who had it all or at least could, suddenly loses everything that he had. Everyone is surprised of what he’d become. How was it possible for someone who had it all could be like this now… It could be associated with any situation, like moving to another country or place where you had everything, everyone knew you but now you have to start again without having any friends. Always appreciate all the moments you are living because soon they will disappear and another moment will come.
