Holding out for a Hero BUT ITS EPIC - Cover by Lydia the Bard feat Alex

- Опубліковано 16 лют 2024
- OK SO, they're on a battle field, we're at the end of the book and the final fight has arrived. Our heroes jump into the fray but the strategy that has been put in place is clear to fail, there's no way they'll win this battle but the higher ups pull rank and they go forward with the plan anyway.
Our protagonist confronts her love interest about the plan and he assures her the best thing to do is follow orders, no ones dying today. She trusts him and ignores the warning signs.
And so they fight, with everything they have, they fight. Our protagonist looks around the battlefield, watching as friends fall left and right. She focuses her mind and continues striking through enemy after enemy. Eventually the battle quietens, the foes are fewer and she stands alone on the field breathing hard, sweat and dirt coating her skin.
She spots a figure in the distance, her love interest stalks towards her with a knowing glint in his eye. At first she’s relieved to see him alive but then hesitates. The eyes she trusted implicitly look different to how they have before. Before she knows it he lunges forward and a sword has been plunged into her side, her knees buckle beneath her and her love guides her to the ground. He had been fighting for the other side all along. Slowly she begins to pass from this life to the next, heartbroken and calling out for a hero with her dying breath.
Hope you enjoyed my far too dramatic cover of Holding out for a hero! You can tell I live on booktok. It wouldn't be a Lydia the Bard cover if there wasn't tonnes and tonnes of DRAMA

Title should be ‘Holding out for a hero but Lydia got carried away with an idea at 3am and ran with it’
Stream this song here! ffm.to/holdingoutforaheroepic.OYD
😂 Bro u are amazing 😊
I hope u and Alex are having a good day😊
Do "When She Loved Me" from Toy Story 2 as Jessie's villain song.
still hoping for esmeralda´s villain song
I’d read / watch anything based on your story ideas, especially this one!
3 AM is where the best ideas are made and this one payed off.
See this. This is how you get an undead vengeance paladin. "Even in death I needed a hero. And the only hero around was myself."
That is UNBELIEVABLY GENIUS!!!
@@DestronGamingThank you.
I had a similar idea to this! A hopeless fight where escape and life seems out of reach, but in that despair, a lone soldier, the best of them stood in between the enemy, and the friends. A suicide mission, to buy enough time for everyone to escape. On that day a hero was born. On that day they saved everyone. But no one came when they needed a hero, and there was no saving them.
About 10 years ago at Gen Con I listened to Michael Stackpole read one of his short stories. It was about a desperate army sallying forth against impossible odds of monsters that had steadily crushed the kingdom. They sallied forth at sundown and fought an impossible army at night. They had lost all their heroes long before the battle and only had themselves. But in their desperation they found a way to protect everyone they cared about. For it was not an army of human heroes that sallied forth against the monsters, but an army of vampires.
Or a Death Knight
Huh, very versatile song.
Original: a lighthearted song about wanting a man.
Shrek: the backdrop to a climatic action scene.
This: a dramatic tragic end.
I usually worldbuild for D&D but this has made me create a paladin. A man that survives against all odds, the heroic rescue comes half an hour too late for his beloved so he takes his beloved's oath hoping against all hope his service will be enough to curry favor with the god(s) she swore an oath to. He will serve, he will honor their codes and laws and all they stand for, he just wants the woman he cares for back. A lifetime of servitude for a moment of happiness.
You forgot “Short Circuit,” chase scene.
Saints Row 3: Motivates you to tear absolute ass across the city to save your friend
Have you watched Footloose? A movie about a community, especially teens, who need someone to come and change what is happening in that community.
You forgot it's classic usage in Short Circuit
I love that it makes this song sound like they are actually waiting for a hero to save them instead of just waiting for a man to sleep with.
"Mayday, Mayday, the Western Front has been breached! Repeat, the Western Front has been breached! Requesting immediate reinforcements!"
( Explosion )
"Battlefield Status Report: no further message received. All quiet on Western Front..."
"Houston, we need a hero."
"It's gonna take a miracle to get out of this alive"
*The most majestic, rugged, courageous knight, who won't lose anyone else if he can help it.* 😡
IF you grew up in the 80s then you would understand that a one night stand is not the desire. The desire is have the hero that will stand by them long term. That was the thinking in the 80s.
@@sgt_s4und3r54don’t waste your breath on these young lost causes lol they think they’re so woke because they’re eyes are “open” to the misogynistic patriarchy around them. Meanwhile everything was built by men, everything was invented by men, & to this day 80% of the world’s infrastructure is maintained & kept suitable for living thanks to men.
Guy, calm down. This is a different flavour of epic.
This one will make you sob.
YES!!!
So a Greek epic
It's good, but calling it "ballad" would have been more accurate as well as fitting for a bard.
@@Alpostpone1000% agreed

This makes me imagine fictional scenarios that make me sad
Real
Write them down friend. Who knows, maybe you have a thing for writing!
Try watching Short Circuit 2. Johnny 5 fits this song well.
Yes, I find the song very evocative!
I use songs like this for my fictional characters in last stands and I cry every time
This brings us to the age old saying you either die a hero or live to see yoursellf become a villian
Love this saying

I have a 5e Sorcerer that is on track for both but hasn't quite reached either.
Being a coward is a third option.
This could definitely be used in a musical, and Lydia’s character is the main one that dies in the last scene. And the “I need a hero”s after Alex’s line (until the last one) are sung by the narrator as we watch the dramatic death scene
The rough panting, the soaking blood dripping from the brow. Lingering memories of duty, of orders among the chaos of her mind. "72 hours... just hold out for 3 days." roaring over and over, for motivation? Desperation? No, survival.
Clenching, a slippery grasp on the hilt of her steel. An unwavering horde bellowing forth. The ever dark night, a fortnight spent lost without light. The remaining time lost among the never rising sun. Brothers and Sister lost, only to rise up in arms once again under the beckoning everlasting night.
The shattered steel of comrades strewn about, coated in glistening starlit crimson drool. The shambles and clanking of bones risen again. They claw, they scream... they eat.
I didn't remember the Fairy Godmother to be this touching and sad...
HA! The old witch couldn't be like this if she TRIED!!
Bonnie Tyler sang it first, and sang it better than that bat ever could.
You know she’s not the first person to sing it.. right? No judgement just feel.. old now.. lol
@@LilMissy9315 pretty sure she was? It was written for footloose in 1984.
@@yndrelbosch3678 oh sorry I was replying to gentlemen bastard not you, didn’t mean too confuse
I don't know how a cover can be more epic than the original, but I'm here for it
Edit: I said this before it came out. The original and this are both epic but in different ways.
What I’ve learned from this song is that it will only grow more epic
Epic music refers to a modern type of classical orchestral music, with or without hybrid elements added to it. Example: adding an electric guitar into the orchestra. And the word orchestral means that it has been written for an orchestra to play. 🤓👆
Honestly almost EVERY version of this song is Epic!
Its more epic sped up 2x
More? Bonnie Tyler will *NEVER* be lacking in the realm of Epic... but this is a different kind of Epic that is no less potent. Bonnie prayed for Love. This Hero prayed for rescue... and such a rescue came, but the only comfort in the end was that she and her Love would perish together and thus face Eternity as one.
I LOVE lydia videos so much because it is so obvious that in addition to being a beautiful singer, she is a storyteller. her videos are the perfect things to inspire others, they're like writing prompts with hauntingly angellic chords
The sounds the way a lone soldier would feel in the middle of a seemingly pointless battle
Trying to cling to hope
Another great song Lydia! 💚
With the way the art is drawn it really looks as if she looks at us, the audience. Pleading to send someone with her dying breath, but we can do nothing but helplessly witness everything.

Very unique take to a song thats almost always been interpreted as one for helpless damsels in distress.
This one sounded like an honorable final stand. A final hope, a final cry for survival. Truly grimdark.

I WILL- If I do it-
Now imagine hearing reving motors and chainswords approaching menacingly and shouting
"FOR OUR COMRADES, FOR THE EMPEROR!!!"
COURAGE AND HONOR BROTHERS!
‘The time for speeches is done,’ said Dorn. ‘The first great test is here. My order to you all is simple, yet heed it well, and exert yourselves to see it done.’
‘They are coming. Kill them all.’
Or......
We do not know what our chances of survival are, so we fight as if they were zero. We do not know what we are facing, so we fight as if it was the dark gods themselves. No one will remember us now and we may never be buried beneath Titan, so we will build our own memorial here. The Chapter might lose us and the Imperium might never know we existed, but the Enemy - the Enemy will know. The Enemy will remember. We will hurt it so badly that it will never forget us until the stars burn out and the Emperor vanquishes it at the end of time. When Chaos is dying, its last thought will be of us. That is our memorial -carved into the heart of Chaos. We cannot lose, Grey Knights. We have already won.

THE BETRAYAL AT 4:10 OH MY GOD THIS COVER IS EVERYTHING. I know you have a story in the description but I picture this as soilders with some sort of magic trying to keep some dark force from entering the castle, and the captain of the guard lets go as he says that, allowing the dark force in, and it chooses to kill all those who stand in it's path, starting with out main character.
(Sorry got carried away there, my thoughts thought thoughtily)
So I may or may not be working on a story inspired by this
If you do, post it here please!
It says something about the versatility of an original, when not one, not two, but THREE covers manage to live up to the original. (The other two covers are the medieval cover, and of course the one in Shrek 2). Lydia, you've done it again, amazing!
three things
1. THIS IS EPIC!!! ALSO HE KILLS HER?! WHAT?!
2. HAZBIN COVER NEXT WEEK LET’S GO!!
3. pls cover Killer Queen by Mad Tsai if u havent already :3
UR AMAZING LYDIA
No, I think he leaves her for dead.
Omg yes she'd do Killer Queen so good
@@davidvaldezjr5546 "Before she knows it he lunges forward and a sword has been plunged into her side, her knees buckle beneath her and her love guides her to the ground. He had been fighting for the other side all along."
Seems pretty obvious that he killed her.
@@foxanard Where did you read that?!
@@davidvaldezjr5546 It's in the description.
This has such a different energy to the Fairy Godmother version.
I did not expect to be on the verge of tears but here we are
That so absolutely gorgeous!!!
I was grooving out and singing along and you pulling a "Lydia" and changing up the lyrics near the end to fit the narrative of the story, threw me off guard but gave me goosebumps as most of your covers you "rewrite" or add onto! Beautifully done as usual!
as the emotionally unstable person i am, i was not ready for this today lol
LYDIA!! So fun to make this song with you, you are truly incredible 💕
YOU ARE AN ANGEL I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR WORKING ON THIS WITH ME!!
This is great! It feels like the start of a villians story, that waited for a hero, but when they didn't came she needed to make sure they would make it. And for that she needed to become the villian.
Thanks for this beautifull cover!
You mean "and it continues to be Epic"
Music speaks many languages at once: when you're happy, you dance with it; when angry, if fuels the fire; sadness makes you feel it.
This was amazing.
This is amazing. Like seriously. The vocals? The melody? The background noises? The art?
STUNNING.
I don't know how.... but she has such an eerie and airie voice it makes everything she sings.... so beautifully otherworldly
I like the voice of this girl, it's so sweet and yet so epic! Thanks, Lydia, this was a great cover (especially since it comes from one of my favorite childhood movies) Have a happy saturday afternoon and God bless you, take care and greetings from Colombia to you as well.
What do ya mean "but it's epic"? This song was always epic!
"awesome" and "epic" are not exactly synonyms.
Man this fits so well with an event that happened in my DnD setting, basically a Gateway to the Abyss was opened resulting in a massive war between demons and what ever remained of the Elven Empire, the gateway was made by one of the elven emperor's, and what ever allys they could find amongst the Humans and Dwarves. It was not enough as the Demons had push to the last few remaining cities of the empire, basically almost 2/3 of the Elven empire was razed, which at its peak the empire stretched to about 1/2 of the continent. Then the dragons came and was able to help hold the line until they found out how to seal the portal shut. Suffice to say there was a lot of hopeless last stands that happened during the war. The Dragons were nearly wiped to the brink of extinction from the war, so they left far away to try and rebuild thier population. And as a result kf the war, basically the area that the demon army had razed had became desolate, rain would no longer fall, the ground perpetually stained ashen grey, trees became petrified husks, and any water there became poisonous. Essentially making a large chunk of the continent uninhabitable.
This is such a sad yet powerful version of this song, I’m obsessed! 🙌🏻
This reminds me of all the times where in a story a problem could possibly be solved with the help of a character previously established as some sort of guardian, like maybe they even gave some sort of promise that applies to the situation. And we, the reader/viewer wonder if they will show up or if that promise is now in the past. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I do like that wondering phase, especially if the characters themselves don't think the help will come. Really tugs on the heartstrings.
It's epic but in a better way than my expectation of epic, if that makes sense. There is battle, but the music and scenario are sad and emotionally epic. Your voice conveys the sadness of the situation really well. I can't wait to hear what else you all come up with!
I see why Epic was fully capitalized. This cover stands toe to toe with both the original and the version from Shrek 2 by putting a different spin on it. So good.
I hear She-Ra vibes from this. Good job! 👏
It's insane how much a song can change by changing the notes. Lydia The Bard shows us that, no matter what, changing a song can make it better.
Dark and scary Neil Diamond covers: Red, Red Wine but it's about alcoholism
Oh wow! This song reminds me of a horror game idea I been thinking about. Another beautiful made song again
Sadly the original is so over played on radio and other media that it takes away the masterfully crafted lyrics. This cover shows just how amazing the song actually is! Super weell done!! Love the epic feeling you put back into it. Love it love it love it 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤌🤌🤌
Aye Not every story has a good ending there isn't always a hero.
This is realistic tragic but real Oh how I do wish we see a part two some necromance is in order
Man, I wish this was on Spotify, it's so good...
It's on Spotify
This is giving me a similar vibe to a DnD session where I saved a nation from some parasitic plant and the continent from Tiamat at the same time.
Praying to the gods she is calling for a heroine because I need a cover of this song singing about a female aligned hero so hard.
I've never liked the words heroine or goddess or similar such words, because it implies a male default for those things
@@thegreatandterrible4508 I mean, same, definitely get you are saying.
But since the lyrics use masculine terms ("Where have all the good MEN gone", "HE's gotta be strong, and HE's gotta be fast") it's clear the song is about a male-aligned hero. And I want a version that is either 100% gender neutral or about a female-aligned hero for my own personal needs LOL.
@@Kahvinporo That is an excellent point. What would be the Sapphic equivalent for Hercules?
Shrek 2 would be proud this is awesome
I came into this expecting a fairly standard variation of a song I knew well and liked. _I did not expect for the new lyrics to make me CRY, goddammit!!_ 😭
So i am running curse of strahd, this songs original version is the main theme song for the campain. This will be used in the boss fight at the end. Love the song, keep it up.
Wow Lydia!
Your vocals are amazing 😊💚
I can't wait, I can already tell that this is going is incredible.
I now need a version of this where the hero actually shows up halfway through and completely demolishes the hopless tone
Breathtaking. I got completely immersed. Amazing job!
I absolutely love it!! The dialogues at the beginning bring a great context, and the song is so good! 🤩
It was a pleasure to work with you on the artwork illustrating this cover! ⚔💚⚔ You absolutely killed it with this one, the animatic opportunities and fantasy feel are off the charts. Epic is a great way to describe it, I got chills,,
Man i needed this after finishing my campaing as paladin in BG3, i gave them all i saved the city and everyone, sacrifice of my body to become illithid and finish off nether brain.
There was only 1 death, my own.
God speed Godrick, they wont forget you just as i.
You said Epic... And yet somehow you still undersold it.
Surrounding it in a short narrative to ease us into this masterpiece was a solid touch. I suspect there will be many replays of this number in my near future.
Me, a healer main, through sobbing tears: I KEEP TRYING TO CAST CURE BUT THE WOUNDS ARE EMOTIONAL, THE SONG IGNORES MITIGATION, AND RESCUE IS ON CD FOR THE NEXT MINUTE
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT! This is by far my favorite song to see covered because everyone does it differently and it's always amazing.
Qué triste historia que tu propio amor te quité la vida es algo de lo más doloroso 😢
Buen trabajo como siempre Lydia💚👍
Okay okay but listen to this... Just hear me out!
What if... as her hero turns villain, the villain she knew turns hero. As she passes out she hears a soft voice and a brush of a hand over her face and feels lifted up and she's sure she's dying on that muddy, blood drenched ground... Just to wake up again with fear and confusion, anger and anguish and hope in her heart. And the pain comes back and it's paralysing but the pain means she's alive. She hopes maybe of of her companions survived or that her love's betreyal was some wicked trickery but she never suspects that their biggest enemy would be the one she sees.
She jums to conclusions, thinks she's been kidnapped, taken prisoner, she's sure he will torture her for information... But why if her love already betrayed, surely he's already given them all and surely all is now lost.
So why...?
Enjoy your enemies to lovers fantasies now 😉
Still can't be as epic as the Fairy Godmother cover of the song from Shrek 2.
That's the most epic version as much as I love this
Highlight of my childhood 👌
I just love how you make stories to go along with your covers as well as originals!
Incredible vocal performance! I love your covers, you should make more covers :)
Well, now I have a story hook for a D&D campaign. Thank you for that.
the creative choices for the song cover is amazing! brings new life to the song... best cover so far i've heard
Well, that was not what I wanted, but was definitely what I needed. Thank you for this. Beautiful voice, epic atmosphere.
That repetition at the end is absolutely heart wrenching. Such an amazing cover
Lovely cover!! Also I just think it's kinda funny the difference in the names.
Like "Lydia the Bard wow extremely epic" and "Alex :) ". Kinda like "this is Williams Reverend the Third and this is his friend Bob"
This would fit so right in with a story of a Guardsman, in Warhammer 40k, praying for the Space Marines to come raining in.
Everytime i get really sad i come back to listen one more time me and my ex fiancé would listen to this song a lot, she had past away to cancer 2 years ago and this song fits her so well she was fighter and i miss her so much ❤️❤️ thank you for this amazing cover
This is one of the best covers I’ve ever heard, amazing talent!
Beautiful cover but also the art!! AMAZING❤
This is one of those songs that popped up in recommended and I had no idea who this is but I'm so glad I gave it a try. Gave me goosebumps listening! Great job with this amazing cover!
Not what i was expecting. But still was amazing, the emotion coming from your voice is just supercharged.
This is the best cover i've ever heard in my entire life. One of the best songs, definitely one of my favourites. Tears went quickly. Definitely a masterclass which deserves millions of views, and likes.
I love the tone of your voice. So magical and emotional.
THIS NOT JUST EPIC . . . THIS AMAZING ❤❤❤
PS. Your amazing Lydia 👏 truly a master piece ❤❤
Lydia The Bard just can't seem to miss with all these hits! She is a goddess of music!
Wow, breathed new life into a classic song. I grew up to my mother watching footloose on repeat. This makes me actually want to sing the song again.
This is the best cover! Thank you! Even the dialogue is amazing! Great job! 🤩🤩🥰
Oh my gods thank you so much for this. I once played in a D&D campaign as a Bard, and we were in the middle of the war the losing side mind you. My bard was mortally wounded and the healer wasnt around us so he was going to die. The DM let me use modern song equivalents for his bardic music and since he wanted to do one last thing for his friends sang to the God of music this very song. This was exactly how i heard it in my head (cause i can sing a bit), and the DM was so moved by how i described his final moments the god of music granted a super version of bardic inspiration to the entire army. Thank you for giving his final moments form, i can never repay you for this.
I have been listening to this so much the past few days, IT'S SO GOOD!!!
This somber approach is far different, and it hits differently.
well done.
Speaking of epic, you should a cover a song from EPIC: the Musical! I would love to hear you do Warrior of the Mind!
Agreed
Yes I agree 😊
Absolutely superb! You did an amazing job and breathed new life in an absolute classic! Great job!!
Version and story behind it are both so good, love them both
What a great reenvisioning of this song! Haunting and heartbreaking.
ure absolutely amazing i cant express how much i love the emotion, voice, mix, scenery everything
It has been years since I last heard a song that gave me chills the way this one did... Bravo
You promised it would be epic but you only made me cry. Good job
Wow. This was incredible. The musical arrangment really set the tone and your singing absolutely delivered on the emotion. Just, wow. 👏😢👏
An amazing job, I love what she did with the song, the desperation, and the melancholic sound. She's pulled off a trick here, and I love it. 5 stars.
But, the power and range of Bonnie Tyler are unmatched, and it's hard to cover a song written with a specific person's vocals in mind, especially when that person is one of the GOATs. While that may sound like a detractor, it only sounds that way. She's done what is hard and made it her own. No Carbon copy here, well played ma'am, well played.
You made a already epic song more epic, good job
I have just listened to this again. It's heartbreaking.
God damn it. Even when I thought you can't do something better than your last song, you proove me I'm wrong. What a MASTERPIECE
Forward, the Light Brigade!”
Was there a man dismayed?
Not though the soldier knew
Someone had blundered.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
Charge of The Light Brigade vibes. Giving me all kinds of campaign ideas.
This has been one of my favorite songs since I was a kid. And Lydia only made it better. I love the whole thing. Thank you for sharing this Lydia you're beyond epic.
This is particularly resonating for the idea of a undead Paladin who comes back from death not through necromancy or an unholy pact. No nothing like that, just because they said four simple words before they died "I need a hero."
