What do you think, did I succeed in turning the GoT theme into a lullaby? Let me know your thoughts in a comment!

[@hurlyzzz]

Beautiful cover, but not a lullaby in my book.

[@BrianIsWatching]

It's beautiful. Great work

[@shuvayughosh4590]

Yes. It sounds good..!

[@austinwalker3737]

I love this, It’s sounds very light and pleasant but I wouldn’t call this a lullaby. I was always under the impression that lullaby’s were everything you described but also a simpler version of a song. Less notes but enough of the same elements that the original song is still recognizable in the new. I think it mainly circulates around the time signatures, for example if an original song was in 8bpm drop it to 4 bpm. I Hope this helps! And I hope we get another rendition! 😊

[@madaxe79]

Excellent.

[@Neoplasie1900]

I do really like the little "theory" or rather technique discussion before the actual song. That really helps to no only understand why this arrangements sounds the way it does but also makes me appreciate it more when hearing specific details. Great job!

[@danmorgan712]

This was extremely impressive. Not just the song, which showed a delightful ingenuity and twist to an existing work, but also the entire video's aesthetic. The camerawork, editing the video and audio, the lightning and the performance itself all feel high production value. Great work.

[@syedumaralam]

This is pure talent right here. Not only did you manage to incorporate your own skills into this score but also made it sound as impactful as the original in a very beautiful way. It has the scenic vibe which transcends you in the world of "The Song of Ice and Fire".

[@_ninja_nic]

Oh my… that hit deep. After watching your explanation (knowing the OST but not being a fan of GOT), I didn’t know what to expect. Your lullaby is so touching, and the whole video-even though it’s a short one-is incredibly encouraging. Being in your “7-Day Guitar Challenge,” I’m beginning to realize more and more what you put into your music before it can sound that beautiful. And now I finally understand… even if I only want be able to play simple tunes beautifully, I have to put in the work! Thank you! Let’s go 🙏🏻

[@BeyondTheGuitar]

Well said. Knowing what you need to do, having a clear path forward is everything. Appreciate you!

[@artyomcg]

starts at 03:00

[@kardonix]

I don't watch GoT but I really like the soundtrack. And this song, dude, its a masterpiece. They should use this theme for sure.

[@Hamashi]

This is definitely a Lullaby to anyone's ear who hasn't seen the series, but for those who did see though.. it kind of is more terrifying

[@GuitarsAndDragons]

Nathan, if one day you're hired by a movie studio to play a super-hero, they should call you Inspiration-Man 😃😎 I love your creativity

[@johntrentis_my_hero6667]

Much like the “sad friends” theme, I hope this gets used somewhere in film. Absolutely brilliant, Nathan.

[@skizzler1232]

I freaking the LOVE the game of thrones theme. And yes a variation would have been cool

[@JoshGUITARofolo]

He’s BACK! 🙌 Masterfully done, man.

[@greenwave819]

Fire and Ice + that live map + the teaser of cast order was the coolest intro ever!

[@estherbarron6219]

Truly amazing!! Definitely achieved your goal by using the different techniques to effectively become a lullaby.

[@GuusMusic]

Beautiful!!!

[@BeyondTheGuitar]

Thanks Guus! Let's catch up sometime

[@ironphildo3616]

This is superb! I very much appreciate your approach to this video by educating the viewer of techniques used, giving examples, and why you chose to use them. It really helps with composition thought process and also with applying those techniques in various other pieces we are all working on. Keep it up man, you're killing it! You are without a doubt one of the most inspiring artists I follow.

[@debmills356]

So beautiful. This video has something for everyone in your tribe - teaching and beautiful playing. I love when you do lullabies and taking the Game of Thrones theme and translating it into a lullaby...well, it's what you do.

[@TheRokkis]

Love the harmonics. I think it's the end that made me think about lullaby, but I don't even know when was the last time I heard a lullaby so can't really trust my ears =)

[@elipa23]

Absolutely amazing! what a great arrangement! I would love one of the prince that was promised from house of the dragon.

[@mr.thomas6348]

Hey, you're back. We missed you.

[@Biomirth]

I'm not a music theorist but from what I think I understand this is more akin to a variation than a full thematic rewrite. I know you ****had**** to make the theme very clear so general listeners would be able to follow the relationship to the original but I think you can go quite a lot farther and be thematically related to the original if you give up this 'necessity'. Some composers take the listener on the journey so that one can realize the development, others just bring in the original theme somewhere near the end so that it forms a kind of encapsulation of reassurance. Either way you have WAAAAAY too much talent to stick so close to the original theme and call it job done. Make a counterpoint or 7 to the original melody. Make a 2nd movement to it. Make a concerto in a countering theme. Do these things and then make the lullaby. I believe you definitely have the chops for that and I think you can have both the 'general' audience and bring people something truly new if you do both.

[@hugoheintz]

Amazing how you can change the vibe of a theme like this, great work!

[@yodhapatria5189]

I like the the soft accompaniments aroung the bass melody, right after the opening. Sounds great!

[@daoud41]

This is perfection, as always. I also love the little wink to "Rains of Castamere" at the end. Really really enjoying your work here. Keep it up !

[@arteeeeeeemis]

I was never a fan of the original theme, but you managed to make this one sound unique and unfamiliar, yet recognizable. Really enjoyed it. Great arrangement as usual !

[@GuitarSVD]

Welcome back and great job sensei!! ❤

[@davidkimel4559]

Awesome. Those last few notes sound like rains of castamere. Nice detail

[@faigler]

Just finding your stuff but this is *definitely* worthy of a "sleep music" playlist! Beautiful use of the campanella especially, but I loved how you worked in the other two and the arpeggios around the main chords/melody in a couple sections. I love hearing the theory!

[@SparklingDracs]

So good. Definitely a successful translation to a lullaby but not putting me to sleep! Great to see you back. Been missing these….

[@adamcooper3166]

Oh my God such a beautiful piece and so masterfully done. You are one of the best guitarists in the world I am certain. You should send this to GOT and they might work out a way to put it in the show!

[@droplet.productions]

Very pretty great job!! Suggestion: it would be awesome if you do Top Gun next

[@RabidPrimeape]

I'm not sure I could sleep to this but I can see it being played behind an rpg or rts game.

[@zafyrgoalum]

wow. That was amazing and I can't help but think that that would have been a great version to use for at least the first few episodes of HoD.

[@matir7396]

Did you merge a little bit of "light of the seven" and "rains of Castamere" there in the end?? sounds awesome

[@BeyondTheGuitar]

😉

[@gsl2005]

Seeing your videos always fill me with knowledge

[@henrycechini4168]

HOOOOLY MOLY! This is perfect Congratulations bro

[@N.U.R_Music]

I have no words, this is ethereal

[@kevinirlen1492]

dude you are a genius.. a gem to this world

[@chaosoul-seanleeriggs369]

Love this lullaby version! Ramin Djawadi should have already made a variation to the theme, especially since he's also a guitar player/arranger as well as being a composer for tv and film! But I'm sure he'll be proud that you did it first, and so well and fitting!

[@Sinewmire]

Every house theme in GOT is a variation or is at least related to the main GOT theme!

[@rickwoods5274]

This feels like credits music to a bittersweet ending, of what I'm not sure!

[@blackiepearl2705]

What a beautiful variation of Ramin Djawadi's masterpiece! You've absolutely nailed it❤

[@saxonharries9033]

Love these breakdown videos, absolute master of your craft.

[@NinCat1]

I'm not a GOT fan cuz I never saw it....but you played this song so very well and lovely 😍 I just love it 🥰

[@tricular6397]

Amazing to see you back again, and a very well done piece as well!

[@dtwids]

Oh wow thats beautiful. If they make this the theme tune to season 2 I might start watching it again.

[@FuzzyToasterMeister]

Wow that was lovely. I totally thought you were about to sneak in some Rains Of Castemer at the end with those last notes haha (lines up with "so he spoke").

[@AaronWillmon]

This was incredible dude. When you cut to a few days later, you should have let your hair and beard grown out like 6 inches…for effect!

[@torchiapet]

Aside from the goosebumps I felt by the end, I’m pretty sure I would have fallen asleep if that had lasted another minute. So I say goal met!

[@jorgedoering6952]

Excelente maestro!

[@yossephgetnet367]

I aspire to be as good as you someday...I swear everytime I hear ur arrangements I just want to pick up my guitar and grind.

[@TheEagleIFD]

I damn near fell asleep so yeah really good job on that. Sounds amazing and very peaceful. You have an amazing talent!

[@user-rr8xj3ed4u]

Overall, beautiful. You did an amazing job. The only thing I might consider changing is tweaking the tempo down just a hair or two in some parts. I tend to think of lullabies as slower and more methodical. You've got the methodical part down pat, but I think bringing the tempo down a bit more in some parts would really expose the techniques you are using in addition to really making this feel like a song that you could easily fall asleep to. Otherwise, this is beautiful and I'm glad KZbin showed me your channel.

[@SorandaGuitar]

Mesmerizing!

[@DonST22]

I love how you feel music

[@UjjwalQo]

Fell asleep. Had to comeback later to give a thumbs up.

[@Metalfreak327]

Amazing. Please put this on Spotify

[@melekcoskun4120]

You absolutely nailed it.

[@victoriadominguez1155]

I really love the music of Game of thrones, and I must admit that your interpretation is fucking good! really good

[@trevormassoth2802]

"Its ok Ellie... I gotcha.... I gotcha"

[@DorothyOzmaLover]

Gorgeously stylish rendition that's full of artful passion and expression which sings to the ears. So many cheers!

[@lucasabatino8779]

This means playing music😍😍😍

[@GoldfishPark]

I dont normally comment on videos, but i just gotta say, these videos are amazing and tbh very inspiring.

[@der_eckes]

Absolutely beautiful, what a great composition and dynamic playing! Thank you!

[@chrishenry7569]

It's enchanting

[@eduardo_tss6847]

This is perfect!! You really made It.

[@QYXP]

The actual playing starts at 3:00 for those who don't want to listen to the talking.

[@hadriscus]

You did keep all the rythmic and chord structure -maybe you could have taken liberties with that, too? You didn't really give up the ominous tone of the original. But all in all, it does sound very soft and soothing. After all "A night to remember" is a lullaby and it's ominous as hell, so... It's nice to see, and hear you back. Cheers!

[@BeyondTheGuitar]

I did reharmonize some of the chords in there - it's just subtle. Good to see you back too, Hadrien

[@angelladroncordoba2026]

You are a genious!! What a great job you make! Simply amazing

[@renevanklaveren2126]

Really Reallly beautiful. I love it. Fantastic work. Hard work! Thank you so much

[@18edu]

Great work man! It reminded me of some beautiful lullaby from Zelda!

[@lolielolz3648]

they should add this as the opening of the show

[@lolielolz3648]

all of your arrangements blow my mind away!!

[@DarkBlueFeathers]

Beatifull piece, could you please make a video with just this song? I mean without your tutorial/describtion

[@cajus3894]

i think you did a great job👏👏👏😁

[@AlergicToSnow]

I like it! I don’t know about the lullaby aspect. Seems a bit too complex for a lullaby but I think it really works as an alternate take on the GOT theme.

[@jaredsebring6129]

Yo Nathan, this was so awesome- love it!

[@jaredsebring6129]

That’s totally awesome! What’s the prize?

[@sk8pkl]

Wwoooww! Absolutely beautiful!

[@alexmartin6816]

Great video! Thank you for the clear explanations. Sounds beautiful 🎶

[@KartiacKID]

I liked it, it was a very Zeldorian version

[@Beregond1861]

Well I literally just fell asleep listening to it for the first time, so you must have, man.😁👍

[@sanchez4500]

Awesome........what about making a extended version

[@bernardogarcia1814]

Amazing job like always

[@firexdinfinite7147]

The got lullaby I very good but have you heard a game called the ghost of Tsushima, it is an awesome game and has incredible music that will be amazing to cover it in guitar

[@zhanbolatmukan2049]

Awesome as always!!!

[@The_Nameless_Entity]

On the opening Episode, they played a different version of the theme song. The following week they changed it to almos the same theme as it was played in the GOT.

[@hassanafridi7845]

Well done i loved it worthy of the iron throne

[@dorikorama]

Damn You nailed us i think

[@fredrobert76]

Damn i hate that i love every arrangement you perform. I still haven't gotten around to playing again but mark my word i'll definitely be able to play one of your arrangements one day !

[@psyodome]

Just absolutely gorgeous 💙

[@JaanikaRiiel]

You are always amazing!

[@alexander-yf3bp]

Sounds beutifull but you could have changed the rythem a bit more and play some of the notes in at a higher ocatve(like you already did but a bit more) to give it an even more soft feeling.most of it works perfectly but the begining still sound ominous rather than soft lullaby. PS sorry for my bad english not a native speaker

[@AstraGamesStudios]

WOW! great job man!

[@neilvidot1145]

Very very nice

[@RolfvanMeurs]

Beautiful!

[@CasperEsmann]

First comment! Gorgeous as always!

[@BeyondTheGuitar]

Let's catch up soon, brother

[@ThirdWorldClassical]

Awesome Nathan.

[@jeremyrfk]

I actually love that they used the exact same thing lol

[@Agent-007]

You certainly got as close as one can, but GoT is just too epic, I couldnt fall asleep listening to its intro, too many memories, too many sorrows

[@madaxe79]

I agree.

[@Mohammad-ey1vc]

This is awesome!
