【Sanguine】 The Court Jester (Cover) 

Funny thing is, actual Court Jesters were paid pretty well. One Jester was given a whole swath of his king's land for doing a fart joke that the king liked.

The high-pitched, yet joyfully malicious voice really fits the Jester’s chaotic personality.

"Not all thorns come with a rose" The whole song is great, but this line is pure chills.

BEEN LOOKING FOR AN ACTUAL HUMAN COVER OF THIS SONG❤❤❤❤❤ genuinely incredible please become immortal

Lyrics I am the jester, my job's to entertain And it seems that soon enough it too will be my job to reign Over all that you see, over all that you know As the king is slowly dying, any moment he could go Yes the king is slowly dying, any moment he will go Oh! Sweet memories, come rushing back to me as I trace my fingers on these haggard walls within your keep though my exile still stands, I heard my duty call to me because I am the court jester, I've grown tired of my sleep after all, I am the jester, and I've tired of my sleep What good is a crown if the brow it sits on is that of a dead man? I'll wear my cap and painted smile with pride, my trusty baton in my hand and you will see me, sire, I'll make my way back to you you cannot stop me sire, your time is up, I see right through you Though resolute you may pretend to be inside your walls The people soon will realize that your feeble body can't forestall The inevitable end that we all will one day meet You are human, you are dying, yes I know it's bittersweet But you knew this day would come, and you can't borrow steal or cheat Yes, your maker gave you time, but you've run out, and soon you'll meet I was awoken by some nibbling in my brain A single thought, just like a knot, a stone, a weight I can't explain That sat there pulling me to consciousness and waking soon I found Myself entrenched in ancient earth, with roots and vines my arms were bound And in this post-hibernal state my mind was filled with clouds of doubt Were these my memories? Or something else? and soon I felt the urge to get out Tearing, ripping, painful as it was Vines and leaves gave way easy just because All that's left in this world is decay; Soon I knew what caused me to awake With a newfound memory after rest I felt something bubbling in my chest Soon I felt myself losing control Peals of laughter rang into the distance from my soul I cannot recognize a single thing in front of me The world as I knew it now is gone, is this reality? Absurd and nonsensical, fantastical and daft All that is left to do is sit right down and laugh Hee-hee-hee! Oh this world that I left you in Has been tainted by your sin And as such I have now taken it upon myself To reinstate the reign of laughter and in health I will return Oh I am making my way back, I will return Soon the people will remember the reason why they burn And the fires in their might will start to turn Pointing fists and shouting out with no more reason for concern Soon you will see! The world will turn upon its head! Just you hope that you can see it 'fore you're dead! Foolish king, you sit in empty meaning on your throne But in my time away, you've ended up alone Oh, all the power in the world could never save you now as the time at which your curtain's called draws nearer, get ready to take your bow The age of reason is now drawing to a close! And now I, the mere court jester, will his majesty depose I will tip the gilded throne, in me the people will repose because I am the court jester, not all thorns come with a rose After all, I am the jester, and this future I propose: let the fool, let me, the jester, bring the olden tales to close let the fool, let me, the jester, a new saga now compose

I just pictured a 2000s cartoon network show about royalty and there being a villain jester character and he gets his own special episodes about the main characters battling him and then his final appearance has him monologuing to the heros then starts singing this as a flashback plays, and then at the end of the song they just kill him with friendship (and flame powers)

So I was just looking for covers of this song and then I see this. Being tired, I went "eh why not, let's see if it's any good". I am so glad that my tired brain did because this is quite literally the BEST cover of this song I've ever heard! Very well done, and you've earned a subscription!

- how many times have you listened to it? me: yes

This is fantastic! Thank you for sharing your art with the world.

Something I love about this cover is how soft your voice on the opening line sounds before seamlessly solidifying on the next one and onwards… It gives a gentle and yet whimsical quality to the song and it just jives really really well

I get really attached to the original versions of songs and that makes it hard for me sometimes to fully appreciate remixes or covers. Especially this song, which I adore so much to the point of inspiring me to create a whole character based on it. That context in mind: Your cover does this song great justice and I'm thrilled at how you captured the spirit of the original. Props.

Can we all agree that her voice is absolutely amazing?

I think im officially obsessed. When i first heard the origin I loved it and I normally don't like the sound of vocaloids. but it was so catchy and the animatic attached was perfect. So I looked for a human cover and found yours. I think I've listened to this over 30 times now and I found this song yesterday. I have to stop myself from putting it on repeat when in the car so I don't annoy my family. Your voice is so perfect and I've listened to other covers but yours just encapulates the right vibe.

Happy birthday Sanguine! It’s already been a full year of awesomeness and singing together. Can’t believe we’ve known each other for only a year. It feels like forever ago! Can’t wait to continue to work with you as both project members and friends! ❤🎉

I love how slowly more unhinged you sound as you go

Saved under my Jevil and Jester trio playlist

Alright, this is pretty damn good! It’s not perfect but still good! I think the best line from this cover (at least the one I think is most well executed) has got to be “In my time away, you’ve ended up alone!” Like, in the OG song, it was meant to be sadistic mocking, like, this ain’t a fool playing out his part, this is legitimate sadistic mocking. Here, however the line is ramped up to eleven, with it starting kinda “calm,” like most of the song, then when it gets to “you’ve ended up alone,” the jester starts to yell, to shout in maniacal GLEE! To the king! it’s not just sadistic, this is one of the most intelligent people in the kingdom feeling maniacal and sadistic glee over that fact, and it hits hard! So, yeah, hope you enjoyed my mini-essay, and bravo to you, sir/miss!

Oh my gosh, I adore this absolutely, this is everything to me, exactly what I've been wanting, a wonderful cover by *human*, with a lovely voice, so thank you 💖 oh and um, as a transfem without a single regret i don't know what all you're goin through in your journey, but im glad you're finding yourself and continue to make wonderful covers and put your heart and soul into them 💞💗💖

You are a godsend, this song deserved a human cover since it's creation, thank you so much!

I'm forever associating this cover with one of my OCs

OMG that laugh at 2:56! I already loved the mocking laughter in the original, but this is *easily* 200% better.

the "see" at the start was an eargasm

I found this cover last night and I may have had it looping for a good bit now. It's genuinely so good and the best cover I've heard of this song!! Thanks so much for making it and keep being awesome

I found this cover a few days ago and it inspired me to make one of my favourite writing concepts from the past few years. I've listened to the original a couple times as well, but the fact that your version has much clearer lyrics is really nice and makes me partial to yours. Good song, mate!

You did a great job matching the vocals of the original but with a human voice! It honestly seems like it'd be a tough task to make some parts go smooth, but you managed to do it!

YESSS!! I've been waiting so long for a cover of this! Your performance oozes with character, I absolutely the personality that shines through in this! You hit all the notes splendidly too, and recreated some of those wonderfully odd, subtle shifts and translated them to traditional vocals! Brilliant!

Your voice fits the song perfectly. Great work.

Hi. I love this song, and I really am happy to hear a good human cover of this. You've got a good voice for a replacement for Fukase and are IMMEDIATELY more understandable. Thanks for uploading this. It's great!!!

The voice is so smooth and fits with the jester perfectly, good job!

Noooo i gained a obsession over this song i watched this one and the original both 10 times one one day

WOOOOOOO FINALLY A NEW COVER FOR THIS SONG!! 💟💟💟💟 Your voice is so cool too!! 2:53 the laughter here- holy cow 😯✨✨ Also thank you for filling my jester obsession up more💟💟

Can I play your cover during an encounter for my D&D campaign? I have a villain who has been using an instrumental of the original song as their leitmotif. I would REALLY like to play your version to represent the character singing during one of their schemes. Your rendition is amazing and would fit their energy.

Not your voice having what I like to call ‘the crispy edge’ which is so fitting for a semi-maniac character like a jester

Omg just found this song yesterday but yours is my favorite version!!! Wow you’re so talented thank you! ❤

It sounds so good! :oD For sure my favorite human cover of this song

LITERALLY perfect, thank you so much for making this!! I had trouble understanding the original lyrics, and this makes them crystal clear!

Idk what it is about your voice, but the way everything sounds in this song is genuinely borderline magical. Very fitting, in the best way possible, for a sociopathic jester. Keep up the good work!

I liked the song but couldn't understand Luke half the middle bits. Your cover is crystal clear making the song even better. So I really enjoyed it thank you.

Guys, I think I just broke my replay button due to how GREAT this cover is! It's like as if I've just struck diamond!

ahhh the brainrot your voice sounds just like a certain jester character so i love this cover

My question were their any jesters in real life that was able to steal a throne of a country back in the Medieval times

I will not lie I never understood half of the words in this song so yeah I really like this one thanks a lot for making it

omggggg I love this voice!!! I LOVE IT!!! SO GOOD!!!! AND THAT LAUGH!!! ABSOLUTELY MIND SHATTERING!!!!!

This is one of the best covers of any song. Kudos, Sanguine. On another note, does anyone know of any other unique ballads like this one? Story writing is taken to another level when you have an outline in song form

Man I also wanna make a cover of this song someday! Me and my best friend love this song but I couldn't show it to people who can't understand vocaloid! Thank you!

Such a wonderful cover! As someone who feels a strong kinship with the story of the song, I have extremely high expectations for a cover it. *You madam, have delivered apon those expectations and surpassed them.*

This is really good. I still prefer the original as it's just oddly unsettling but damn is this cover good and now i have two versions of the same song in my downloads

new favorite singer. no question.

I like to imagine that this is part of the performance the harlequins put on for the fractured Aeldari and the king is Slaanesh

This song is so hypnotising.

Such an addicting music to listen to, please accept all the praises from the work you put into. 👍

No but like why is ur voice so majestic???

I've been listening to this cover on loop!! Love it so much! ❤ you did an amazing job

I've listened to a few of your covers already and you're literally so talented and I love your voice omg

Is it bad that I relate to this song 😅

I JUST FOUND THIS AND IT SCRATCHES MY BRAIN SO GOOD

This is without a doubt my favorite cover of this song! Good work!

(모두를 위한 가사) The Court Jester 궁정 광대 I am the jester, my job's to entertain 나는야 궁정 광대, 다른 이들을 즐겁게 해주는 것이 내 일이라네 And it seems that soon enough it too will be my job to reign 그런데 곧 통치하는 것도 내 일이 될 것 같군 Over all that you see, over all that you know 다들 보시다시피, 다들 아시다시피 As the king is slowly dying, any moment he could go 왕께서 서서히 죽어가고 계시니 언제든지 세상을 뜨지 않으시겠소 Yes, the king is slowly dying, any moment he will go 그래, 왕께서 서서히 죽어가고 계시니 언제든지 세상을 뜨지 않으시겠소 Oh, sweet memories come rushing back to me 아, 아름다운 추억들이여, 내게로 다시 돌아오노라 As I trace my fingers on these haggard walls within your keep 내 손가락으로 여윈 성벽을 덧그릴 때에 Though my exile still stands, I heard my duty call to me 내 유배는 아직 형기가 남았소만, 왕께서 나를 부르셨다지 Because I am the court jester, I've grown tired of my sleep 왜냐하면 나는 궁중 광대이니, 잠 자는 건 이제 지긋지긋하다오 After all, I am the jester, and I've tired of my sleep 결국, 나는 궁중 광대이니, 잠 자는 건 이제 지긋지긋 하다오 What good is a crown if the brow it sits on is that of a dead man 죽은 자의 이마에 얹힌 왕관이 대체 무슨 소용이 있겠소? I'll wear my cap and painted smile with pride, my trusty baton in my hand 모자를 쓰고, 당당한 미소를 그리며, 내 충실한 지휘봉을 손에 들리라 And you will see me, sire, I'll make my way back to you 곧 저를 보시게 되실 것이옵니다, 폐하, 폐하께 돌아가겠나이다 You cannot stop me, sire, your time is up, I see right through you 절 막으실 순 없을 겁니다, 폐하의 시간은 끝났고 소인은 폐하를 꿰뚫어보나이다 Though resolute you may pretend to be inside your walls 비록 폐하께서 의연하게 굳건히 서 있는 척 하실지라도 The people soon will realize that your feeble body can't forestall 백성들은 곧 눈치챌 겁니다, 당신의 허약한 신체가 The inevitable end that we all will one day meet 우리 모두에게 언젠가 닥칠 피할 수 없는 결말을 막을 수 없다는 것을요 You are human, you are dying, yes, I know it's bittersweet 폐하는 인간이시고, 이제는 죽어가시니, 그것 참 씁쓸하시겠지요 But you knew this day would come, and you can't borrow steal or cheat 이런 날이 올 줄 아셨잖습니까, 속이거나 할 순 없사옵니다 Yes, your maker gave you time, but you've run out, and soon you'll meet 창조주께서 당신께 시간을 주셨으나 이젠 다 되었으니, 곧 그분을 만나시게 되겠죠 I was awoken by a nibbling in my brain 내 머릿속을 갉아먹는 무언가 때문에 깨어났다네 A single thought, just like a knot, a stone, a weight I can't explain 설명할 수 없는 어떤 매듭, 돌, 무게추와도 같은 단 하나의 생각이 That sat there pulling me to consciousness and waking soon I found 거기 앉아서는 나를 의식으로 끌어내었지, 나는 깨어나 곧 깨달았다네 Myself entrenched in ancient earth, with roots and vines my arms were bound 뿌리와 덩굴에 팔이 묶인 채 내가 고대의 땅 속에 갇혀 있다는 것을 And in this post-hibernal state, my mind was filled with clouds of doubt 마치 동면에서 깨어난 듯 내 마음은 의심의 구름으로 가득 찼네 Were these my memories or something else? Soon I felt the urge to get out 이건 내 기억인가? 아니면 다른 무언가인가? 곧 나는 뛰쳐나가고 싶어졌네 Tearing, ripping, painful as it was 잡아뜯고, 찢어내고, 고통스러웠으나 Vines and leaves gave way easy just because 덩굴과 잎은 쉬이 길을 내어주네 All that's left in this world is decay 왜냐하면 이 세상에 남은 것이라고는 오직 부패 뿐이니 Soon I knew what caused me to awake 곧 나를 깨운 것이 무엇인지 알게 되었네 With a newfound memory after rest 잠시의 휴식 후 새로운 기억이 떠올라 I felt something bubbling in my chest 내 가슴 속 무언가 끓어오르는 것을 느꼈네 Soon I felt myself losing control 곧 내 통제력을 잃어버리고 Peals of laughter rang into the distance from my soul 웃음 소리가 내 영혼 저 너머까지 울려 퍼지네 I cannot recognize a single thing in front of me 내 눈 앞의 그 무엇도 알아볼 수가 없네 The world as I knew it now is gone, is this reality? 내가 알던 세상은 이제 사라져 버렸네, 이게 정녕 현실이란 말인가? Absurd and nonsensical, fantastical and daft 부조리하고도 터무니없도다, 기이하고도 어리석도다 All that is left to do is sit right down and laugh 이제는 앉아서 웃는 일만 남았노라 Oh, this world that I left you in 아아, 내 그대를 남겨두고 떠났더니 Has been tainted by your sin 이 세상 모두가 그대의 죄로 더럽혀졌소 And as such I have now taken it upon myself 그러니 이제 소인이 나서기로 했나이다 To reinstate the reign of laughter and in health I will return 웃음이 통치하던 시대를 되찾고 내 당당히 복귀하리오 Oh, I am making my way back, I will return 아아, 난 돌아가는 중이네, 나 돌아가리라 Soon the people will remember the reason why they burn 곧 백성들은 그들이 왜 불타게 되었는지 그 이유를 기억해내겠지 And the fires in their might will start to turn 이젠 그들의 힘이 불타오르기 시작하리 Pointing fists and shouting out with no more reason for concern 더 이상 걱정할 이유 없이 주먹을 쳐들고 소리를 지르리 Soon you will see, the world will turn upon its head again 곧 보게 되리라! 세상이 다시금 뒤집히리라! Just you hope that you can see it before you're dead 그대가 죽기 전에 볼 수 있기를 바랄 뿐! Foolish king, you sit in empty meaning on your throne 어리석은 왕, 헛되이 왕좌에 앉아 있도다 But in my time away you've ended up alone 내가 없는 동안 결국 혼자가 되고 말았군 Oh, all the power in the world could never save you now 아아, 이제 세상의 그 어떤 힘도 당신을 구해줄 수 없나니 As the time at which your curtain's called draws nearer, 폐막의 때가 다가왔으매 get ready to take your bow 작별 인사할 준비를 하라 The age of reason is now drawing to a close! 이성의 시대가 이제 막을 내리고 있도다! And now I, the mere court jester, will his majesty depose 그리고 나, 이 하찮은 궁정 광대가, 국왕 폐하를 폐하겠노라 I will tip the gilded throne, in me the people will repose 황금 옥좌는 내다 버려라, 사람들 내 안에서 안식하리니 Because I am the court jester, not all thorns come with a rose 왜냐하면 나는 궁정광대이니, 가시가 있는 것이 모두 장미는 아니리 After all, I am the jester, and this future I propose 결국 나는 궁정 광대이니, 이 미래에 내가 제안하는 바 Let the fool, let me, the jester, bring the olden tales to close 이 바보가, 내가, 궁정 광대가, 옛 이야기를 끝마치게 해주오 Let the fool, let me, the jester, a new saga now compose 이 바보가, 내가, 궁정 광대가, 이제 새 이야기를 자아내도록
