@Alexander Knight It is a reference to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. The game opens with Bowie's original rendition playing in the background, alluding to the theme of doppelganger.
@@sophbliss It sounds so much like Bowie it was kinda mindblowing when I found out it wasn't. I don't think that's a coincidence considering what happens in the game...

Robert Plant of Led Zepplin was a pretty good sport too. He quite liked the black reggae Elvis Presley impersonator who used to cover their hits under the name of..... Dredd Zeppelin.
I was born to a small feif. I was still a child when we were raided by the knights. Foreign knights. Torn from my lord I was made to speak their language. With each new field my masters changed along with the words they made me speak.

We passed upon the stair We spoke of was and when Although I wasn't there He said I was his friend Which came as a surprise I spoke into his eyes I thought you died alone A long long time ago Oh no, not me We never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world I laughed and shook hand And made my way back home I searched for form and land For years and years I roamed I gazed a gazeless stare We walked a million hills I must have died alone A long, long time ago Who knows? Not me I never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world Who knows? Not me We never lost control You're face to face With the man who sold the world

Oh god, I love your work. Definitely top quality if it comes to medieval covers! I can clearly hear how much work you put into it. Would you consider covering Bowie's Heroes or Major Tom? If you want view-friendly ones, Shining Lights or Heads wil roll (dance till you're dead) could be a good choice. Cheers!
Really good cover mate, if you allow this simple man to make a suggestion , how about ashes to ashes, i always loved that song and it's cosmic vibe ending, thank you for your work

Probably plenty. I like these quotes from Bowie himself though: "I was simply blown away when I found that Kurt Cobain liked my work, and have always wanted to talk to him about his reasons for covering 'The Man Who Sold the World'." and then about the folk who came up to him and said about the "kids that come up afterwards and say, 'It's cool you're doing a Nirvana song.' And I think, 'Fuck you, you little tosser!"
I knew it was a cover when it came out- but it's one of those songs that another artist has made their own, too. Sort of like "Hurt"- I mean, you get Johnny Cash doing NiN, but it was beautiful in a unique fashion. (Or for a sillier one, REM doing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight.")

This is honestly such a perfect song for bardcore. the original already sounds pretty otherworldly

@@sunjoexys7251 Actually it was a cover, by Midge Ure. Great version though, and best game of the last decade easily

Hardly a good game.

I reckon Bowie would've loved this
Yes Agree !!
Cobain would’ve loved it too.
We've now officially spent more time living without Kobain than with him 😢@@kylehegedus5498
Thou art sufficiently talented
Yeah, I was waiting for a Medieval Bowie. Thanks for this!
I'm afraid it's been...900 years
What is thine name? Does thou remember when you were borne?
Engraving thy sword offers thee no advantage whatsoever.
Thine was fancy swordplay, you do well.

I really do think that David would have really loved this and appreciated it for the style of music that it is. Superb version. Thank you x ☺
Sire, V has awoken.
You are large lord, I am large lord, we are large lord
"I am Large Lord, and thou is too. Nay, he is both of us together."
LMAO!

We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago
Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
We walked a million hills
I must have died alone
A long, long time ago
Who knows?
Not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
Who knows?
Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
"And then we have Skull Face, so called because he has a skull for a face."
He was inflicted with leprosy.
First Bardcore I've heard with Transcendent potential. CONGRATULATIONS!
Thank you for the blessings!

When methought I could not loveth Bardcore more.

Any man who plays the Serpent is my Lord and Master, lol
Underrated version, I like it!
Serpent King watchout for that Dragon
From big boss to grandious king.
I love it. So many memories : David Bowie, Metal Gear Solid V etc... ^^
Really good cover mate, if you allow this simple man to make a suggestion , how about ashes to ashes, i always loved that song and it's cosmic vibe ending, thank you for your work
Thank you, I like this song too as well as Space Oddity, I will try to make one of these later.
That would be otherworldly.

1 ,25x speed and you are ready to destroy the wooden gear of Large Lord, Sir Solid Serpentes
I like how this ends up sounding like the Labyrinth soundtrack
“For you see milord, I am Lord Big Boss, and thou art as well.”
"Nay, he is the both of us together."
can't believe this doesn't have a million views already.
Great job once again!
And I like the pic so much, you always try to make something different comparing with other bardcore authors.
I think we found the perfect bardcore cover. This is the perfect song to be treated so, and you have done it perfectly. *chef’s kiss*
Thank you, Vicki🙂

1 dislike coming from man who sold the world.
And 1 dislike from the guy who bought it from him lmao
And another dislike from the guy who was outbid
Thats a good work, thank you

5 years today since he passed. RIP
is that a 'serpent' used for the bass parts? if so, too damn cool! 😀 (even though the serpent didn't actually come along until 1590)
I'm gonna say a sackbut, mostly because sackbut is such a funny word
Respect Bowie's song choice!
“Thus, the man sold thy world.”
This good☝🏿👌
You are the best!
cool!!

Me and the boys: *_it's time for a fucking crusade_*
Now you can't see the dislikes anymore.
:/ Interesting how Cobain came to mind quicker than it's (apparent originator (?)) Bowie
Every nighteth I can feel thine leg, sire
Whyfore art we here? Just to suffer?
Someone should do a medieval version of the lyrics
Wonder who the person that bought the world is..
The DEVIL !!
hmm yes

Also it would be nice to hear your cover on Imagine Dragons or more of Daft Punk (:

How many people do you think are watching this thinking it was originally a nirvana song?
