Hey everybody,
the never-ending question "Should I cover a song I love?" is a tough one... There is the risk to butcher it, the risk to anger the original creators and/or their fans and the fear of potentially attracting undeserved attention (positive or negative) for something somebody else has lovingly created...
So before you even listen to this make sure to click here: • Songleikr | Ulvetime (... and watch the original and if you love it, give it a like, a share, a comment and a subscription for the channel and then go to Bandcamp and download the original there: songleikr.band... and everything else you potentially like by this lovely little collective of musicians who also happen to be core-members of the band Heilung.
I recorded this cover version as a sign of appreciation of their beautiful work and because I wanted to know what it sounds like with a harp and my voice, despite not speaking any Norwegian at all (a big SORRY to everybody who does speak the language - I did my best trying to phonetically learn the song, but I may have butchered the lyrics quite a bit...I'm sorry, I am German by birth and I am living in England...). And it was just a pleasure to explore this haunting track and to listen to all its details and nuances and skill of musicianship and production - both things I lack myself, being at best a hobbyist to semi-professional recording in a tiny bedroom in an tiny flat with the minimum of equipment and skill one needs to create anything at all, I guess... A big thanks to Songleikr for creating this song (please show them some love!), which I love dearly. I hope my little version does not butcher it too badly...
Lots of love,
Syl/Valdkynd
