    Hey guys!
    Here's a video where I record Dragonborn step by step to show how I like approaching covers and background vocals! :)
    • The Dragonborn Comes (...
    This music belongs to Bethesda, from their game Skyrim, composed by the amazing Jeremy Soule.
    Thanks for watching. :)
    UPDATES:
    Website's back up and running!
    Thank you even MOAAAAR for watching this! The encouragement I feel right now is unbelievable. And Reddit, IGN, Destructoid, Kotaku, Joystiq, The Escapist, BEYOND!! and Bethesda, you're awesome. (Omi, I love you.)
    Many thanks to Bethesda for allowing fan tributes such as this video to be posted online: www.bethblog.com/bethesda-vide...

    Beware, beware, the Dragonborn comes
    For the darkness has passed, and the legend yet grows

    I was just humming and poorly singing this in my kitchen while loading the dishwasher, it just suddenly pooped into my head. I had to come listen to it... for the bajillionth time 😊
    Still incredible.

    You're as legend as Skyrim. You've inspired hundreds of people to sing this music again. For me, this video is a great nostalgia. End best Skyrim Main Theme cover...

    Still better after 7.5 years than 99% of music released after. If you are not a Character, not a NPC, a CHARACTER in ES6....just a missed opportunity on Bethesda's part. Thank you Malukah!

      you should definitely contact them about replacing all bard voices with yours. At least for this song. And mayb even replacing a bard's face with yours. Personsally, I think the'd be too corrupt, but DEFINITELY worth a try. That would definitely improve my game experience.

    So many covers have been released of this song. You even made a remastered version of this. But to me this will always be the original. I still remember stumbling on this cover and "Age of Aggression" as a Skyrim-addicted kid and had them on repeat. Then you released "Age of Oppression". I had all 3 in my playlist while I played.

    12 years later I still consider this performance to be one of the best. I hope there will be a cover for part 6 🤣🤣
