【Kikuo】Urami no Waltz // Malice Waltz 【Umber】

Hello it's me, back from the grave (again)
I wanted to try taking a few liberties with this one, particularly the chorus, which is why it sounds different than you were probably expecting. Hope you like it anyways!
As always, thanks for waiting for me to get my ancient creaking bones to post yet again, especially to my patrons who honestly have the patience of saints.

I accidentally deleted a couple lines in the video, but I know people also like to have the lyrics written in the video, so here you are! Lyrics: A nightmare ballroom, joined by spirits of the night The graveyard’s only just begun to come alive Lalalalala~ Lalalalala~ Let’s have a ball! Join our malevolent waltz! Cinders and ashes all lie On dolls with prying eyes Dark and beautiful as sin, “Let the festival begin” Drowning in the grief I can barely breathe Waiting for you Clamoring Aren’t we all enamoring? Ancient Ancient Ancient eaves of the night Burn the sky with all my scorn You who I love and adore Descending Descending Deep in the dark heart of hell Promise I will guide you well Glowering along the way, sneering, I howl your name During the day all my dreams are light But in the night, they get sullied with spite It’s all the same, I’ll play either way Creaking like a crooked laugh The dead are gathering on my behalf Stealing every life we see Be with us eternally I’ll give you the gift Of a granted wish So welcome to your confession, Bend the knee, you pray to me! There’s no threshold I’m not willing to cross You are damned forevermore You who I love and adore Drowning Drowning In the nocturnal depths Glowing embers rising up From my broken heart and corpse Scattered by your own hand Ancient Ancient A land of carrion fey A parade of wonderful friends Summon us and make it right Morning or noon or night Ah~ Ancient Ancient Ancient eaves of the night Burn the sky with all my scorn You who I love and adore Today, you’ll serenade us with your lovely voice This malevolent waltz of ours Playing to the tune of you breaking, bloody and bruised Lalalala~

[@_foxyan_]

And here I am asking again, how can every Kikuo song be so catchy and beautiful?! Your interpretation and lyrics are absolutely stunning, thank you so much for all your hard work❤️ (I've been obsessed with Hole-dwelling lately, hope to hear you cover it one day)

[@MsKirbygirl1]

This is just sheer perfection! I've always loved this song, but this cover just made it even better! The lyrics are so hauntingly gorgeous, and of course your voice is pure seduction.

[@OneHappyLuc]

Your voice fits this song marvelously !

[@crystalfrost313]

[@eclipsecipher9497]

Your voice fits the energy of this song beautifully, and no matter how long between uploads I’m always happy to see when you upload another bop!

[@jasminedragon9717]

[@spirit_wind]

YOU OBLITERATED THIS AS PER USUAL MAN ❤❤❤

[@vivulent]

You have the most ethereal way of singing dude, I'm in love with your content

[@henzy7397]

Holy shit, this is such a good cover dude! It could serve to have a stronger voice (especially near the end), but the harmonies you make with your voice easily make the song so much better. The lyrics are also really good.

[@UmbraticForest]

Thank you! I would have loved to belt the last few lines but unfortunately I can only reach that range in my head voice.

[@endingsky8271]

Damn now I want a vocal only version.

[@mooncat4646]

[@TheBluesofYuu]

Nice! Your alive! Good sound I hear too.

[@dawkosussybaka8190]

I love everything you do, you are now officially my favourite cover artist! You also got reappy nice taste in songs! I wonder how it would be if you sang Hitogawari (Japanese), My September (Korean), Sonne (German), La Llorona (French, Steampianist), or The World We Knew (English, Frank Sinatra)!

[@chimkencaesarsaladman4343]

Dear lord your voice cracks my spine in all the right ways, if I had any money I'd worship you on patron you're just like- ✨gender✨ Have a blessed evening mate this is beautiful

[@SunInJar]

holy shit I got so lucky finding this masterpiece

[@Hi10877]

🤩

[@TR1XSTER-0]

I absolutely love your covers!! These are amazingly well made, and your voice seems to fit so many songs in many unique ways. (If your ever interested in voice acting, I’m coming and getting you!) This is a good thing when I say: Villain song material. Whenever I listen to one of the covers, it makes me think of a Villain arc. And I love it! It’s amazing.

[@SquidLing]

ngl i love to for you to sing this Ophelia / Reckless Battery Burns [Original Song Collaboration vocalist ver.]

[@KimyrTheSummerSolsticeWarrior]

Umber, can you do The Distortionist (GHOST) ?

[@aleutianzie9670]

Can you sing 7 Years by Lukas Graham? I really want to hear your voice while singing that song

[@GroovinGuy]

I doubt you'll see this or do it but please un-private or reupload your yandere asmr video. It was a classic for me and I would always go back and watch it for nostalgia. Pweaassseeee~~~ If you want to stay faceless I understand though. Anyway I can't wait to see you back from the grave again again. Great cover, your voice is butter and the mix is amazing.

[@UmbraticForest]

It's still public! You just may have missed it but I never privated or unlisted it

[@GroovinGuy]

@@UmbraticForest OH IT IS! thanks lol

[@valecamus4329]

Nice
