- Cover of Lament of Orpheus from the game Hades by Supergiant Games.
If you don't own #Hades, you should definitely get it! The art and music are incredible, as per usual for Supergiant Games.
Although re-harmonized a bit to make it work for solo voice and fingerstyle guitar (...my original intent, before it spiraled out of control), chords for my arrangement can be found here:

Just learned the guitar myself. If I'd get a nectar I'll be sure to send one to you
Learning to play guitar is a wonderful journey. Stick with songs you love and learn them well (music from Hades is great for this!). Good luck!
@@ScottPenick that's how I taught myself piano - one video game piece at at time. I have a shit ton of arrangements I should send you some.
Your "drowning" part was epic. Congrats. Please take this yummy Ambrosia.
Bro u slayed it just like we be slaying hades
:)
Oh my goodness, this is so great! I'm really liking your own take on this, it's not just a copy of Korb. If I could offer one suggestion as a fellow musician, one of my favorite parts of the original is the crescendo within the chorus the "don't look back", it makes it more haunting and stresses the importance of that line. I understand how hard this can be especially with falsetto! This is not an easy song. Otherwise, the harmonies added and the main voice line along with the softness of the guitar were fantastic!!
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback! I agree with you that the emotional gutpunch from the original's climax is awesome. I felt like my cover was a bit too much of a copy of the original (still feel that way, actually...), so one thing I decided to change was the tone of the ending from a powerful 'despair' to a powerless 'hopelessness'. It's definitely a much less satisfying ending, but I'm a sucker for that kind of thing for some reason.
@@ScottPenick I felt the hopelessness and think it's very effective. Love your take on the song and thought it was very well done. Thank you so much for this and your hard work 💜
@@ChenTheRainbow Thank you so much for the kind words :)
youre the first cover i've seen that didn't go to minor key for the "drowning" part and i respect that
words can't express how hard the Hades music slapped
Holy cow. That was so beautifully haunting, I got tears in my eyes from hearing your lovely voice. 10/10 will hear it again
wow!!! i've recently listened to Hades full soundtrack and Lament of Orpheus is my favourite ost. i've been searching high and low for covers and yours is the best, definitely, without a shadow of doubt, on par with Darren Korb's!!! i love the harmonies, you sound positively angelic/siren-like and i SWEAR i can hear a bit of Ashley Barrett's distant harmony in the cover. it's beautiful. i also like what you did with the ending, it sounds different from Darren Korb's, another flavour of anguish, and i love it
Very subtle and well-done. Probably the best and most personal rendition I have heard of this song :) Thank you for sharing !
Your rendition genuinely evoked tears from my eyes. Might be the story. But you totally nailed your own anguish that the original took in a different way.
It's really well made. Good job, dude! Now if only we could get cover of Good Riddance. That would be so lovely
Thanks!
I actually quite like Good Riddance, it's a well-written tune, so I might just do that!
Yeah I've decided I'm going to cover Good Riddance, it's just too good. I've even written a third voice harmony line to it I might add in...
@@ScottPenick Thank you so much for the reply! Can't wait to hear it :D

I have never heard anyone with such a beautiful voice. Absolutely flawless
That 1 dislike is from the Hades himself
Hades would NEVER. He sent Orpheus to tartarus because he REFUSED to sing!
you have an incredible voice and amazing bass/guitar skills! i really hope you keep doing this sort of thing, you're one of the few people i've seen put up a unique bass/vocal cover of a song (or a few!)
Very kind. Thank you :)
Just heard Orpheus sing for the first time and immediately went to CZcams to find covers/tutorials for the song. And I was not disappointed.
For all the things Hades has to offer, I didn't expect Orpheus's singing to be one of the most memorable things so far.
I'm just in total awe of your musical ability and this game. And I still feel like I've so much to uncover. 💙
Thank you so much for the kind words! It's a great game with great music. I felt similarly when I first heard Orpheus sing in game, hence learning the song and recording this (I don't believe any similar covers existed at the time).
Truly moved, so beautiful thank you 🥺♥️ totally obsessed with it
I have listened to quite a few covers of Hades music, but I keep coming back to yours. It is amazing!
What an absolute masterpiece of performance! Bravo!! Bellísimo!
oh man, this is just beautiful, so beautiful
i'd love to see a tutorial on how to play this, those chords are so weird! thank you for taking the effort of uploading the chords by the way
This is so beautiful! Chilling with the restrained voice and the careful layering, and you've still got your own flavour with your voice and (self-transcribed, how the hell) guitar. What a wonderful tribute to Supergiant. Really looking forward to more!!!
Thank you! Transcription is difficult for me, and honestly it's still a lot of trial-and-error, but a skill I'm actively trying to exercise whenever I can. I appreciate your kind words, more music will be coming soon!
Countertenors are back at last! I'm really glad that men can use their head voice range again without being though of as weird! Great singing!
trully amazing
This gave me goosebumps from the start.
Beautiful falsetto. Most covers don't attempt it. Bravo
OOOHHHH BOY! Your voice gives me chills! Bravo, my dude!
great cover! your ability to sing at such at a high pitch is beautiful.
Incredible! I must learn this on guitar now
This gave me the chills omg. SO COOL!!!
I cant verbalize how much amazing is your work
That's a legendary boon we got here ! :) Didin't know there was a god of music in Hades. ;)
oh man your vocal chords needed a break after that huh?? The energy went right from your vc to our ears and I can hear it good job!
Men who can sing in a high register like this have my utmost respect. My voice doesnt get more than 3 or 4 octaves higher than my natural speaking voice, and maybe i just need practice but i cant even fathom reaching notes that high
3 or 4 octaves above your speaking voice?????? Are you kidding me? Assuming you are a natural baritone or a tenor you must be a Coloratura Soprano then! Also assuming that you can sing lower than your natural speaking voice that would give you a 5 octave range. Most trained opera singers have a range around 2 - 2,5 octaves. ;)
Freddie Mercury had a rare 4-octave vocal range. You probably mean 3-4 TONES.
Amazing cover, and your voice is so good! So cool of you to make tabs too
Absolutely legendary cover!!! Thank you so much for the music!
Dude, you've nailed it. You are amazing. This is a stunning cover.
Amazing, the emulation of the falsetto is great! Also the background vocals are beautiful. Really nailed this one dude 👏
wonderful job, thank you for making this! keep up the awesome stuff!!
Killer performance, man. Listened to this many times.
This is fucking awesome!
A secret dream of mine is to take singing lessons and sing my heart out like that..
This is so good, fantastic job!
Well done 🙏
Esto es bellisimo, que bien que canta!
Muchas gracias!
This is fantastic, thank you very much for making it
One year later and I still love this song so much, you really did an awesome job here, it's by far one of the best covers I've ever heard, even better than the original. Whoah.
Scott this is just awesome. Revisiting it
Absolutely Amazing just wow amazing job this is beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
I can sometimes hear the metallic noise of autotuning in the voice. But other than that, it is excellent! This is what any self-respecting remix should be: have its own identity and strengths. Otherwise it is just another person performing the same song exactly the same, but not quite as good.
And despite this being less powerful than the original, it is a very solid and good performance! Thank you for making it!
Breathtaking cover. Love the differences. Просто красавчик.
Really loved this cover! Fantastic job.
Best cover
Geez, Scott, that was awesome.
Thank you!
Amazing cover!
wow
This was incredible
Dude!!! This is so good!
Glad you like it, thank you!
Incredible!
the 1 dislike was hades
Great voice brother 👍
😊
man this arrangement is kick ass ! i've been trying to arrange it myself for a couple days now and i settled for e minor as well (who the hell plays g minor on guitar willingly???). i must say im super fond of the changes in harmony EXCEPT for the 'dont look back' part, it just doesn't quite sit right with me, but i think it's just a personal preference :) kudos!
The only dislike is from Theseus !
uff por dios, lo cantas igual, o no se si mejor, esta increible!!
muchas gracias!
You deserve much more views!
Can you make tabs please?
I made a chord chart!

Powerful performance mate! I actually prefer your version to the original lol!
HAKDJAK, CANTAS HERMOSOOO
The singing is actually a little better than the original. Great original track and a PRO cover here.
Well done and well sung! Subscribed. =)
Thank you!
Have you sent this to the SUperGiant games twitter or anything? You should!
I'm a bit shy about going too hard on self-promotion (many of us tire of it, myself included), but I absolutely appreciate any sharing that enables my videos to reach an audience that will enjoy them :)
@@ScottPenick I can understand that. I myself feel deeply uncomfortable self promoting or doing things like schmoozing on the rare occasions I’ve had to. In this case though I would have viewed it as less self-promotion and more sharing your clearly heartfelt enthusiasm with like-minded people that had a small indie team who made an amazing game.
@@ScottPenick
On a practical level - particularly if you are focussing on your music as means of income, even just networking or having a studio that is likely to go on to do more awesome things in the future see your ability and passion and keep you in mind for the future would be a great thing no? My understanding is that they have one or two people who they’ve worked with several times who have done a lot of the music and as the studio has gotten a ton of accolades for Hades, any potential expansion or further games could no doubt use someone like you with your talents who’d be a passionate collaborator.
I personally love the Way Celeste composer Lena Raine involved and gave a new audience to several of her composer friends/colleagues when she asked them to remix her brilliant compositions for the B-side tracks of Celeste - And they responded by matching her brilliance with their own
Food for thought handsome ;)
Jesus your voice
I'm so gay for you right now lol in the best possible way. Way to go on the arrangement as well
That falsetto made my throat start hurting. I say it as a cool thing, of course, same happens to me with the bee gees.
Does someone knows why does this happen?
Hurting? Hmmm... that doesn't seem good.
For falsetto singing, I think it's important to have plenty of breath support from your diaphragm, and even from your chest to a small extent, but to keep your throat and vocal chords open and relaxed. If you strain your vocal chords, it could damage them and won't sound as nice as it would if they were relaxed.
@@ScottPenick Ok, here comes the funny part:
The pain comes just from listening! XD
Maybe it has something to do with mirror neurons?
Anyway, thank you for the advice. I'm still a beginner as a singer, so it will be useful to keep that in mind.
10/10 :)
anyone know the fingering pattern?
