    “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye
    Arranged and Performed by Hildegard von Blingin, featuring Friar Funk
    Well met, strangers, and ever so glad to see you, old friends! Here's a banger from 8 years ago, but like you've never heard it before.
    I’m trying my very best to put out a song once a week while your interest in Bardcore continues, and will continue to do so for as long as I can. Your support sustains me, I really mean that. I'm slowly making some moves towards getting this music on Spotify, so hang tight on that front. I'm also hoping to get some instrumental versions up for use as karaoke tracks or background music for gaming.
    The art used is a modified image from the Tacuinum Sanitatis.
    Lyrics:
    Now and then I think of when we were together
    Eros surely hit the apple of mine eye
    I believed thou wert right for me,
    but felt so lonely in thy company
    But that was love and ‘tis an ache I still remember
    One becomes enamoured with a certain kind of sadness
    This resignation to the end, ever the end
    When we found we could not make amends
    Thou declared we would e’er be friends
    But I concede that I was fain to be parted
    Was there cause to cast me off?
    Act as though it never happened and that we were nothing
    In sooth I do need thy love
    But thou makest me a stranger and that feels so rough
    Hadst thou need to stoop so low?
    To send a wagon for thy minstrel and refuse my letters
    I need no longer write them, though
    Now thou art somebody whom I used to know
    I lament the many times that thou impugn’d my honour
    But maintained it was ever something I had done
    No more shall I live that way
    Uncertain what thy words bewray
    Thou said that if I were to go
    I would not find thee pining for somebody whom thou used to know
    Was there cause to cast me off?
    Act as if it never happened and that we were nothing
    I do not even need thy love
    But thou makest me stranger and that feels so rough
    Hadst thou need to stoop so low
    To send a wagon for thy minstrel and refuse my letters
    I need no longer write them, though
    For now thou art somebody whom I used to know
    Now thou art somebody whom I used to know

Sadly, since the printing presses that were commonly used in the old days used mainly the German alphabet, they either wrote "the/thee" or shortened it to "ye" in order to save ink as a result. Sorry for this random tangent, but I haven't slept in 2 days and thought I'd share this knowledge. Oh and þ is still used in Icelandic for some reason.

      Radio no, that’s a common misconception, you and ye were very much words in middle and old English. You and ye was originally the plural form of thou and thee, and also the term you would use to formally address people of higher rank than you socially, such as your boss, parents, priests, or the king. This is a trait in many languages such as French, Arabic, Hindustani etc.
      Meaning that the original commenter is not wrong in their use of ye, it’s completely fine.
      This slowly withered away in modern English possibly due to various contending hypotheses, but it survives in a distinct form in northern England. Nowadays we can say either yous or you lot in Britain or y’all in America, this repluralisation is also a trait in some other languages, such as most East Indo Aryan languages like Bengali and Assamese and currently occurring in Dutch and eastern Hindi dialects.
      Now, you’re not wrong about the letter thorn, which was used interchangeably with the letter ð to represent “th” voiced or not. But since thorn survived longer than ð, and since it orthographically looked like the letter y, it was often replaced with it, as English was very far of from being standardized. And so the world “the” was written “ye” our of both laziness to keep consistency as well as to be economic with ink use on printers, which is why pretty much the only example of this is on store signs, take for example “ye old tavern”. This ye, was never pronounced as ye, the other, proper ye, was.
      Sorry for wasting your time, have a nice day.

      For me it was "I need no longer write them, though." Back then a lot of people only kept in touch via letters. Once you got more than 20-30 miles apart it was a huge effort to see one another. To stop wasn't just "I'm done with you", it's straight-up "You're dead to me". And the tone being what it is in that line, there's an added "...and I'm perfectly happy with you being dead."
