I wrote this song in 2015. When I lived in Scotland in 2016, the producer Nassif Younes and I decided to record the song as a layered hurdy-gurdy-"orchestra" version. Here's the result! I hope you enjoy it.
This instrument is called "hurdy gurdy" and has its roots in the medieval times. It works like a mechanical violin with a wheel bow, that can play bass, melody and rhythm all at once. This song is recorded using ONLY the hurdy gurdy.

[@nihorothereal]

Hmm, when he sings it, it sounds as dawn or morn, there is no clear distinction (for my eastern european ear). I suppose, Patty knows the right and is singing it more clearly, but the first lyrics transcribers just noted down what comes first to mind. Break of dawn is more popular, used than break of morn, so it got noted like that. Have we uncovered the mystery, @Patty Gurdy :)

@Ilja Permiakov Seriously? Here, TheLongDark leaves the best comment ever, and then you go and leave the worst possible response. The point the OP is making is that whether they go to heaven or hell, they do not fear DEATH, for they have already heard heaven, and that is enough to merit happiness in LIFE. This isn't a religious take on "deserving" either one, you idiot. Then, to add insult to injury, you go further and insult rap... moronic. There are several rappers, and rap songs, that are very poignant, moving, and meaningful. They're not all full of hate, or evil, or "ugly." Try listening to music from the Broadway show, "Hamilton." That's rap, and it's some of the best I've ever heard. And for the record, I'm not a fan of most rap. Grow up, and learn how to act when someone leaves an awesome comment that is meant as a pure complement toward the video we all watched.

[@themodernking384]

Definitely one of the best chorus's ive ever heard.

[@Bune10756]

Here's the lyrics: I've seen many men wandering All strong and brave and keen Seen them growing into rulers But I long for the sea Heard a ship came from North To our harbor for a day And before misfortune knows I'll be on my way I'm all set to veer away And I'm all set to go astray All burdens I will leave ashore To find what I've been longing for Don't tell anyone That this night I'll be gone Greeting the eternal blue Right at the break of dawn Sailing t'wards the unknown With my crew on the sea And the day that I return A hero I shall be I'm all set to veer away And I'm all set to go astray All burdens I will leave ashore To find what I've been longing for

[@louietheswan9689]

I keep coming back to listen to the longing, the range of expression blows my mind, in a good way.

Dein Song hat mir die letzten Wochen sehr geholfen. Er hat mir so viel Kraft gegeben und ich werde ihn für immer mit dieser Zeit verknüpfen und erinnern. Wie er mich jeden Tag ein kleines Stück mehr aus einem Sumpf herausgezogen hat.🤝 Musik kann Wunder bewirken, vor allem, wenn sie noch mit solch einer unvergleichlich schönen Stimme vorgetragen wird.🌠❣

[@josephstevenbrideau1975]

I like how the instrument can play from single sound to the combination of the octave per notes. I like it, it's​ cool. Yeah, I've listened to it again, it still sounds amazing. Incredibly loud and to the point. Awesome job too.. And for that, thank you. You sure have an ear for your instrument.

[@BrianRonald]

Most of the harmonies are done by recording melodies separately. The hurdy gurdy isn't quite as capable as, say, the accordion for that stuff.

[@irateofwatford]

They both have their own strengths. I wish I could play the accordion.

Its more of a mechanical violin 🤷

There's such an interesting similarity in some of the Celtic and Mongolian sounds. It's how strings are used but there's more to it.
