Jenny of Oldstones - Game of Thrones Season 8 / Florence + the Machine - Cover by Rachel Hardy

A few of my subscribers asked for me to do a cover of the gorgeously haunting "Jenny of Oldstones" from the final season of Game of Thrones, so here it is! I hope you enjoy! (I apologize for the video quality, at the moment I don'y have my usual camera.)
The backtrack I used is from PianoNest. You can find it here: • Florence + the Machine...

@@carlogiurizzato2441 Ah yes. Rhaegar, who very well could have done the right thing and not abduct at worst, groom at best, a 14 year old girl(the daughter of one of the most powerful lords in the realm and betrothed of another) and impregnate her while he was already married to the sister of yet another one of the most powerful lords of the realm, but instead he sacrificed everything because of some stupid thing he read thought it gave him the right to do those horrible things and damn the realm and his bloodline. If Rhaegar was actually a good man, maybe he would have actually recognized his father's inability to rule and gathered support to force Aerys to abdicate instead of causing one of the bloodiest wars westeros had ever seen. Also R+L=J isn't confirmed in the books, so I don't know who you are calling a show watcher lol. Rhaegar absolutely was a selfish, self important, self righteous targaryen and the realm bled for it.

Have you even read the books. She is very beautiful, I agree. But it makes me really frustrated when people assume stark looks through the show. The starks in the books were of darker skin tone, brown headed and had grey eyes and long face. While Rachel is fair of skin, dark haired with brown eyes. Neither her face is solemn and stern. She is rather softer in appearance.
