Never saw anyone else translate this melancholic atmosphere of Opeth so well, this is beautiful.

[@MarjanaSemkina]

+Estevão Campos thank you :)

[@filetmignon4446]

Well said

[@rasaecnai]

that was also my first thought! ATMOSPHERE! it was heartbreaking in the first place this make it...achingly so

[@michaelbrachwitz1713]

There's a sense of longing in me As I read Rosemary's letter Her writing's honest Can't forget the years she's lost In isolation She talks about her love And as I read "I'll die alone" I know she was aching There's a certain detail seen here The pen must have slipped to the side And left a stain Next to his name She knows he's gone And isolation Is all that would remain "The wound in me is pouring out To rest on a lover's shore"

[@michaeldeel1592]

The lovers shore part of the song always brings me to this face 😢

[@mehranhossain861]

The Weather, Concept, Guitar works, Vocals... too good guyz! thumbs up for the great job! would like to see more!

[@MarjanaSemkina]

This Opeth song breaks my heart. I was hearing this cover and I admit it wasn't "grabbing" me, in the beginning. And then at 1:07 you started raising towards the chorus... My skin crawled, I had to pause the video for a second and breathe and "shield myself", no joke.

[@LordVekten]

What a great explanation for that reaction. I couldn't gave a name for that when I feel it but yes, is the correct aception: "Shield myself" for that huge and overwhelming amount of emotions created by this song.

[@LordVekten]

Ah and yes, I also need to breathe at that point of the song...

[@redeyecat]

Damn it, this is SO good! The guitar, the voice, the video! This is the how a cover should be, original, but without losing the essence of the song. Send my regards to that incredible guitar player.

[@darksinthe]

Chilling. Excellent cover. LOVED the improv guitar solo! This girl's voice is perfect. Best cover of one of the best songs ever to exist.

[@parkerbob99]

Amazing job. I wonder if opeth saw this video. They'd be proud. Amazing vocal work, and the finger picking solo was ridiculously tasty

[@MarjanaSemkina]

I don't think they saw it. too many covers on youtube to pay any attention :)

[@parkerbob99]

Marjana Semkina Well even is thats so, I really do think you did a beautiful job :) cheers from the west coast of the states

[@eeeeeeeeee]

This is all so... so... ... Can't explain all the beauty in this.

[@Beyond-Antares]

Next time it rains can you cover windowpane? Also what brand of acoustic guitar (make and model) does your guitarist use? I love it!

[@orquestaprimavera8991]

It's Gibson J-45

[@Valnoten]

I am lost for words, truly

[@randyhalfway1992]

This is the most perfect cover of any song I have ever heard. The guitar, vocals, even the visual atmosphere. That chorus brings me to tears, so heartbreaking. Well done, absolutely perfect.

[@danngrantham7343]

And whoever filmed this did a great job!

[@MarStacey]

I'm crying... ugh. this is especially hitting hard right now 💔💔

[@metatv2273]

That was absolutely beautiful the voice was beautiful the acoustic guitar was perfect and the atmosphere of the rain tied the video together. I wonder where they're at the city behind them looks cool

[@AriagilTheLadiesMan]

St. Petersburg. :)

[@metatv2273]

+There is no sky oh thank you 🙏🏽

[@AriagilTheLadiesMan]

Check the band, Iamthemorning!

[@metatv2273]

+There is no sky alright will do

[@Oryctolagus1]

One of the best things I've found Marjana. If I loved your voice in iamthemorning songs, hear it on an Opeth cover it's really beautiful. Never stop singing, please

[@quantumvflux]

I feel goosebumps every time I listen to this

[@pauloeu5]

Guys... one of the best covers I ever heard. To all parts envolved in this video: congrats! So well done! What an atmosphere!

[@chandrakhadka1749]

makes me cry

[@filetmignon4446]

Raining here in Canada.. Fits so well with my day, but from a musician's perspective on covers and being a fan of Opeth.... This is simply beautiful in it's own, fractured elements.

[@ohadlevy7607]

it's so beautiful!!!! thank you... the both of you!!!

[@cauacobuci]

Oh my God, you're amazing! As an Opeth fan, this version really surprised me, and wow, I liked it very much! Congratulations! :)

[@MacClaude]

[@destroyergaming2137]

Oh my god, awesome, i cry...

[@lgk1expresstemuco]

Bella voz!!!

[@adrianachmatow457]

One of the greatest compositions I have ever heard in my life and I agree that it is also one of the saddest. s for your interpretation - also one of the best covers I've heard! It would sound beautiful when sung in a duet with Mikael! It is interesting that just today, after years of break, I decided to update a playlist created long ago (on my profile), the aim of which was to collect such songs in one place. I decided that before updating the list, I would group the songs in order from the best. (In my opinion - of course) "Isolation Years" finally, after a long, even fight, lost only to "Sold Heart" of Katatonia. Immediately I imagined it would be interesting for you to perform. Have you ever tried any song of Katatonia? ... if any of you have been reading this since 2014 ... Thank you and greetings with all my heart!

[@MarjanaSemkina]

Sold heart is one of my favourites! I covered Katatonia on my patreon live streams - Unfurl and Omerta and i think Teargas? I'll be recording them properly soon.

[@Mellunacyguitarist]

amazing!!!!!
