** LYRICS **
There is a house in Orléans
They call the Rising Sun
It has been the ruin of many a soul
And Lord I know I'm one
Mother was a tailor
She sewed my chaperon
My father was a gambling man
Down, in Orléans
The only thing a gambler requires
Is a satchel and his luck
And the only time he’s satisfied
Is when he’s in his cups
Oh mothers tell thy children
Not to do what I have done
I spent my life in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun
I’ve one foot in the stirrup
The other on the ground
I shall return to Orléans
To be lost, and never found
There is a house in Orléans
They call the Rising Sun
It has been the ruin of many a soul
And Lord I know I'm one

I remember when this was released in 1516. I celebrated my 18th year of life, I loved this song. I had the bards play it on loop till their fingers bled. Good old times!

Fun fact: "The House of the Rising Sun" is said by some to date back to the 16th-century ballad "The Unfortunate Rake" while others believe it to come from 17th-century "Matty Groves". Either way, this song has some pretty complicated and unclear origins!

This song is an old folk song, that The Animals often are attributed for creating. I always tell people that when it plays, but they just say, "Shut it, nerd!" and take my lunch money.

@Hildegardvonblingin 2 года назад

It's as old as the hills!

@Bacteriophagebs 2 года назад

Which is doubly criminal because The Animals actually ruined the lyrics. The original is sung from the perspective of a prostitute, "it's been the ruin of many a poor girl," but the lead singer of The Animals refused to call himself a girl, changed the lyrics, and made the song make no sense.

@RadarLakeKosh 2 года назад

On the opposite side of the coin, it cannot be understated what a difference the Animals' arrangement makes- traditional arrangements put the meter in a 4-beat pattern, and the Animals have the sole claim to the innovation to put the song in a 3-beat meter and arrange instrumental arpeggios behind the melody. In my opinion those two changes make the song that much more haunting.

It's debated upon music historians where exactly it orginated, but it is usually agreed upon that the first time such a song was written down was around early 1500s England. The mention of Orleans was in the states however, most likely after aquiring New Orleans and the Louisiana Territory.

Cool fact, the city of Orleans was named after Emperor Aurelian, who among many other great and glorious accomplishments was one of the first rulers of Rome who worshipped the Sun God Sol Invictus. Just thought this was cool as the first line goes "There is a house in Orleans they call the Rising Sun".

I might never have discovered bardcore if not for HvB (specifically, the 15c. original of "Somebody that I Used to Know"). That said, saying she's "the best" for vocals implies that there are others in the running; are there? So far, all bardcore videos I've found are either all-instrumental or HvB.

1:32 I don't know if this is 100% intentional, but the lyric: "and the only thim he is satisfied is when he is in his cups." Works on so many levels! - i'd have to check my sources, but I do believe that in the 14th (still very much in the late medieval time period) century, the suits of card games were swords, clubs, coins, and (drum roll, please) *Cups*. So it works as a "medieval-isation" of the original lyric, as a euphemism for excess alcohol consumption *and* as a possible reference to the iconography of playing cards and gambling of the era! This tickled my nerdy brain, and I thought I'd share!

The first full D&D campaign I wrote had a tavern just outside the city on a cliff called First Plot Point. It was older than the city and was the first building constructed. The tavern is called 'The Way' Inn. The campaign revolves around getting into and exploring the cursed abandoned fortress on the mountain above. Sadly, the four times I ran that campaign before I rewrote it, no one ever stayed at THE WAY INN on FIRST PLOT POINT because I'd named one of the taverns in the city 'The House of The Risen Son' a gambling hall, brothel and flop house. Seems everyone wanted to go to the second place... humming a familiar tune.

This is quite simply, unadulterated pleasantness - your crisp voice, the impeccable arrangement, the flowing instruments... Not to mention that this is one of my favourite songs, modern or medievally re-imaged. I still vividly remember how the version by another great artist, @the_miracle_aligner, released almost two years ago and sung in Old French(!), brought me into the glorious world of bardcore... Sweet memories. Rock (or I shall say, lute) on!

I used to sit and think what it would be like to have 21 century music played during the medievil times and this is better you have a cross between the two which brings peace more then youd know.

Nice touch changing New Orleans to Orleans in France. Well done! Your pitch is so spot on.

On a lark I went searching for bardcore music for something to listen to while doing my weaving. Imagine my joy to discover you had a new cover of a much beloved song, posted only a day ago. The smile this has brought me is beyond measure and the skill of its artists knows no equal.

One of my favourite songs and a fantastic rendition. Well done M'Lady May I request you cover a Dire Straits song? I'd love to hear a Medieval version of Sultans of Swing or I want my MTV Thanks for posting this video

@BonaparteBardithion 2 года назад

Second for Sultans of Swing, though I'm curious what period equivalent she'd come up with for MTV.

@InuandKagomeForever 2 года назад

Sultans of Swing would be so cool!

@alfredo_21 2 года назад

I didn't realize how bad I wanted a bardcore sultans of swing till now

@grahamturner5963 2 года назад

@@BonaparteBardithion- My thoughts exactly 😃 MTV is not my favourite Dire Straits song (although the album is brilliant) but how do you convert it to Medieval 😃 (I guess the line about moving microwave ovens etc could become "got to move the cess pit"

@manwithmountain 2 года назад

Sultans of Swing, what a great idea.

@michellerabey6637 2 года назад

Lyrics are so good in all your covers. The removal of "New" in this one and the Chaucer line in Hero.

@seanduarte5989 2 года назад

Another banger as always m'lady. Might I recommend the The Rains Of Castamere, I know you considered it in the past would definitely do well with the spinoff coming.

@llchapman1234 2 года назад

That would be a good one.

Her high tunes at the beginning of the song somehow reminded me of the song "Walking in the air" from the film "The Snowman"...beautiful and eerily sad at the same time

@martidawson4375 2 года назад

I love the slightly different lyrics, and still harkening back to France !! I learned this years ago in college, (or even high school), as an old Southern folk song here in America. Another den of iniquity, and “Mama told me so” song !! I love it !! 🥰

Well I had barely finished typing in the Bard's channel that I would love to hear more from you two together and I get this notification as I hit enter... This is a good day.

If I see a notification for Hildegard then you know I’ll come running 🤩 love this song so much

@djnorth2020 Год назад

Excellent change of lyrics to match the theme. Well played, well sung, just gorgeous piece of music.

@cheshyr1 2 года назад

For a song that has its roots in traveling American Folk Songs and possibly older medieval influences, this works great in bardcore.

@jameswoodard4304 2 года назад

Excellent as always. I wonder, though, if "I know that *I'm* one" is normal medieval usage. It seems to my completely unstudied ear that "I am" would have fit better, though perhaps it just wouldn't work with the meter of the lyrics. Also, I enjoyed picturing y'all having to figure out what item of clothes both fit into the original and rhymmed with "Or-lay-ahn" instead of "Or-leens." I.e. "chaperon" instead of "new blue-jeans." It works especially well as (like jeans) the chaperon was a common-person's utilitarian garment that later was taken into high fashion. So, it feels similar that his mother sewed his new ___ rather than providing an expensive one, as he set off to make his fortune.

WOW!!! Stellar instrument and vocal performance!! Hildegard sounds just as sweet as she did in the 12th century. Imagine that. Excellent fine tuning the lyrics. The BEST transcription EVER. You have edged out my teenage favorite: JS Bach's "Bouree" performed by Jethro Tull with Ian Anderson on flute. That is okay with me! 😎 Music, presentation and animation perfection. What a delight! Thank you both!!
