Down by the River Lyrics [Verse 1] Lace your heart with mine Let your sleeping soul take flight Take me through the night [Refrain] Down, down, down by the river Down, down, down by the river (By the river) [Verse 2] Hanging moon in fog Mists will lead where you belong Sweep me off my feet [Refrain] Down, down, down by the river Down, down, down by the river Down, down, down by the river (By the river) [Bridge] Inky embers (Inky embers) Swirl and dance (Swirl and dance) Just leave the flames and take a chance To be with me tonight Take my hand And hold it tight 'Causе you and I are everywhеre The night is young, we're going [Refrain] Down, down, down by the river (By the river) Down, down, down by the river Down, down, down by the river (By the river) [Outro] Don't wake me up Just leave me there dreaming
I'm in love with this cover. The transformation is fantastic. You make it sound like it was always meant to be a rock song. I love the original version, but your version is the one I'm going to listen to on repeat.
people from the internet let's unite to make Larian Studios see this, this metal cover is on a whole another dimension do I love it? HELL YES! thank you Skar for this work of art!
This song works in every form I've heard, yet I am no less impressed with the various versions I've heard. You've made another instant classic and addition to the playlist, Skar.
Bad ass🔥🔥🔥🔥 I've seen a lot of metal covers of this song that miss the mark because they just put metal riffs in with the original. You transformed it and made it beautiful ❤️ Got chills listening and absolutely felt like this could have been the soundtrack for the Lae'zel romance scene. Also I choose to believe Astarion singing because he's essentially Lestat XD Very well done ♥️
I'm a huge fan of the original, and I like this just as much, which can be hard to do when translating a song into a cover. Amazing job! I love how you sang it, where it was more gruff and rock but not completely grunge. Feels so epic this way.
I cannot state enough how absolutely glorious this cover is. I haven't heard anything this good in a really long time. Your vocals are exactly what I was looking for when I was looking for a cover of the song. Seriously, can't sing you enough praise for this one.

Yep, he definitely rolled a nat 20
This needs to be a subclass mod now.
With a +10 bonus multiplier
Bard College of Metal from now on. Whatever multiclass that needs to be.
@@ivanberdichevsky5679his passive is a nat20!
I'm a cleric of Skar now
This has just such MASSIVE Nightwish vibes in this arrangement, loving it!
Haha yeah I do love Nightwish 😅
This would work so good to play when Nightwish flies away from the prison to moonlight, damn!
I am not going to lie. Nightwish covering Down By The River would be awesome, especially if Marko joined in
First thing I thought ❤
I hear it too! especially in the keyboard accompaniment
I'm gonna watch this.... In a van.... DOWN BY THE RIVER **falls through coffee table**
Came here straight from Larian’s thank you to the community video and holy shit that was amazing. Rock on!! 🤟🏻
This would make for a ridiculously epic final boss theme.
Jesus, your singing on this one always blows my mind! Thanks for letting me be part of it!
Too true, but your shredding is also sick and iconic dude 🤘 rock on
@@Calebgoblin Man, thanks!
Did one of my favourite BG3 songs justice! As a metal head I thank you for your amazing contribution to this work of art! 🤘
This cured my depression
it’s so fit with karlach’s new ending!
Down by the River Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lace your heart with mine
Let your sleeping soul take flight
Take me through the night
[Refrain]
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river (By the river)
[Verse 2]
Hanging moon in fog
Mists will lead where you belong
Sweep me off my feet
[Refrain]
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river (By the river)
[Bridge]
Inky embers (Inky embers)
Swirl and dance (Swirl and dance)
Just leave the flames and take a chance
To be with me tonight
Take my hand
And hold it tight
'Causе you and I are everywhеre
The night is young, we're going
[Refrain]
Down, down, down by the river (By the river)
Down, down, down by the river
Down, down, down by the river (By the river)
[Outro]
Don't wake me up
Just leave me there dreaming
Poignant especially when you read about the game's original plot.
Very beautiful and powerful
D20! Critical Success!
Every cover you do blows me away, it's insane how consistent you are. My only complaint with this is that it isn't long enough!
Was struggling to extend this one. Managed to add 30 seconds at least haha
Holy smokes this dudes voice. Goosebumps when you hit those highnotes. Just a phenomenal cover all around man
I'm in love with this cover. The transformation is fantastic. You make it sound like it was always meant to be a rock song. I love the original version, but your version is the one I'm going to listen to on repeat.
Ever since I heard that song in the game I thought "Skar is gonna rock this"
yes! yes! yes! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

Do I Love it?! Yes!!! I Do! Thank you Skar! ❤
AAARGH this is so fucking good!
If only I had a bag of holding, I'd be carring this shit around with me all day long
Not only does this sound AMAZING, you look like you're having so much fun with it.
Listening to this makes you feel like a hero. Singing this makes you feel like god.
What a glorious cover!
Wowowow! I found you from Larian’s video that you appeared in! This was absolutely amazing. I’m now binging the rest of your videos.
You definitely did this better than everyone else on here. I've tried to listen to everyone and I just can't, I have to have this one. Perfect fit.
Agreed, at least among the "metal" versions.
Loving the tadpole effects on this! You did it again, man, absolute banger
