Lyrics: Pulled from my home inside a cloud, Lost to the dark I drift alone, Now I’ve returned beyond the shroud, Ever to reign upon my throne, Here in my Crystal Kingdom. I saw beyond the omniverse, Far past the places we should see, But for my vision I was cursed, Torn from my home and family, Lost to my Crystal Kingdom. Saved from the darkness by my child, Locked in a cage of glass and steel, But my true love remains exiled, Beckoning me to break the seal, Into my Crystal Kingdom. Kept from our children, lovers, friends, Subject to laws we did not make, This is where separation ends, And souls of the lost will come awake, Here in my Crystal... Lost in my Crystal... Enter my Crystal Kingdom. Oooooooo~ Ooooooooooo~ Ooooo...
this song makes me feel like im walking down a fantasy alley at night and theres firefly powered street lamps lighting my way and an old conniving man offers me some potions to kill my enemies
I can't see that. I think the Adventure Zone nostalgia has grabbed on to my heart too tightly and now whenever I hear this song I can only picture me staring at awe at the calcified longing of hundreds of human souls waking from the depths.
Thank you to everyone for your lovely comments!! They really lift my spirits and my confidence :D For those asking for a chord chart, I will definitely make one eventually - fortunately I'm booked in shows for the next couple of months, but that means I don't have a whole lot of free time. I will get it uploaded asap :)
I've loved this video ever since I first saw it when it only had about a thousand views, and I just now noticed the little thing at the end was the inside joke Lin Manuel Miranda has with the McElroys. It's been months.
You kick so much ass it hurts. From your fluid time signature change to your badass cord drop, this version of Chrystal Kingdom has stuck in the back of my mind for a truly remarkable amount of time. Thank you so much for sharing your insane talent!
I hit like before the video was even done loading, and then I went to hit it again afterwards and I got really confused my point is that youtube should have a double-like system specifically this video
Every once in a while I revisit this video- mostly while wallowing in my TAZ Balance feels. I know Griffin would be proud and blown away to hear this. Hope he sees it!
Guys for anyone interested I THINK the chords are as stated below: Am - C - D7 Dm - Am - E7 Am - D7 - Em Dm - Am - E7 F6 - G - Am (or just A if you want to end it on a major chord like the original song) This is just what I could gather strumming around on my ukulele so A) take it with a grain of salt B) feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Once again AMAZING cover, definitely the best one ever for this song. I hope to someday be able to play/sing it!
The acoustics give the song a western feel; I could see a cowgirl playing it late into the night, her only companions being her horse, the stars, and an open flame. Fantastic job!
I adore this version of the song. Every component of it-- vocals, accompaniment, presentation-- make it unique and memorable. Do you have chords available?
This is AMAZING. The arrangement is so unique and beautiful, the style of music is so different from the original but it works so well! Your voice is so clear, and your guitar playing is so good and... ugh! This inspires me to keep working on my guitar playing and singing so one day I can be half as good as you. Thank you for making this and sharing it with the world!
Absolutely astounding! I got chills listening to this, the original song was haunting and I found the performance of it by a Vocaloid helped seal the idea of how trapped and pained poor Maureen was, dead but not quite so. Having a human perform it was a whole other experience, there was no detachment, it brought an amazing *human* element to it. Amazing job!
This is such a beautiful cover, I enjoyed your own spin on connecting each verse with the guitar in the middle!! You did a wonderful job and have a beautiful voice :)
this is incredible!!!! I love the song by itself but you truly made it your own and I ADORE this. your voice and guitar playing are so so so good!! thank you for making this!
