Somebody made a cover of Running Up That Hill by Kate Bush in Early Middle English.

I,

@Gargron
Haven't seen too many middle/old English renditions, bravo! I usually bump into this kind of stuff...

Excellent bardcore stuff on the net ;)

@Gargron @OldAintDead that is beautiful! And what a lot of work went into it. Love it!

@Gargron the literal translation of the word "bullet" from that song would be quite interesting!

@Gargron Sounds pretty much like a song by Ásgeir.

@Gargron

somehow this is exactly what I wanted to hear on this beautiful, quiet (except for the cats purring) Sunday morning.

Also fascinating because one of my current is "The World Horde: Daily Life in Old English" by Hana Videen.

@Gargron This is what the internet was invented for 😂

I hope Kate sees this.

@Gargron It's not quite Hildegard von Blingen but it's not bad.

@Gargron very interesting, sounds like a completely different language with some German sounds thrown in, fascinating!

@Gargron That's amazing! I just wish they'd used a typeface for the EME that was a bit easier to read. The words aren't in the screen long enough for my brain to decipher every letter.

ecksearoh,

@Gargron dammit, now I'm into

@Gargron

Superb. It's actually the first time I've listened properly to that song, apart from hearing snippets as background noise.

@Gargron Does this unresponsive YouTube card only happen to me or also to others?
