I am impressed, a lot of people covered our songs, this one is pretty much the best version I have ever heard. Well done!
+Marcus Siepen Wow Marcus!! That honors us so much!! Many thanks for your kind words! Please feel free to share it!! We love this track and we are fans of Blind Guardian since our childhood!! Cheers, Martin
+Marcus Siepen Omg, are you the real Marcus or just a admirer?
The first live I went was BG last year, you guys were no less than amazing =D
Only sad thing was not playing curse my name and wheel of time, but your concert definitivelly worth losing 50% of my ears hahaha
Don't worry, I am the real one 😉

I really reaaaaaly want to play some D2 LoD (or D3 RoS) with you! I've had that wish ever since I read that you too play Blizzard games. It'd be a blast & such a huge honor. Greetings from the California wine country. Long live The Bards! \m/
The fact that Marcus Siepen commented this video just proves how awesome it is!
coming here 7 years later to say that is still being the best cover that I ever heard. Amazing!
Thank you very much Carlos!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
This cover is so perfect, i can’t help but listening to it again and again. Marvelous just marvelous
Me too, it's just beautiful
Hi again guys. I have just introduced your music to my 73 old father. Good news! He loves it.
This song has just sent me back to medieval time. A peaceful time.... Thank you...
Can't believe I haven't heard this before. Such an amazing version of one of my favorite Blind Guardian songs. 😊
Thank you so much. We did a lot more!!! ☺️
Wow, masterpiece, everything very beautiful, she has a good voice for heavy metal!
Thank you very much 😀
The tenure of kings and their magistrates
By good men it must be deposed
The covenant made can be voided at once
Disanoint him, take his crown
They plead for their king
And they pity their lord
Put him to death, that's what I say
Though never so just these dancing divines
Endue him with reason and grace
Their gibberish
Words dissemble the facts
God's will
They falsely will claim
Let him curse my name
On these blood-stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name
But remember the truth
So there they come
From everywhere
They witness revenge
Hear them calling
"You're laden with blood
It's spilled everywhere"
And sorrow's everlasting
Oh you'll be aware now
That trial is near
It's close at hand
The masquerade is over
It ends
Remove his crown
And bring him down
Remove his crown
And bring him down
Now we shall mourn no longer
Our prayers they've been heard
Now we shall mourn no longer
Our prayers they've been heard
There's no more league
That will bind us to the tyrant
Our voices shall be heard
Cause we won't take it anymore
There's no more league
That will blind us to the tyrant
Our voices shall be heard
Cause we won't take it anymore
And we're one we are the nation
And we're one we are the law
And we're one we are the nation
And we're one we are the law
Falsely they praise
Deify his majesty
"He's blessed the anointed's
Fulfilling God's will"
Curse them all
No further he's king
Providence brought him straight into our hands
Let him curse my name
On these blood-stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name but remember the truth
Now let him appear
There's joy in the air
Now witness a new age is dawning
In trouble alone
He's facing despair
Awaiting his bitter ending
We all know he's guilty as charged
By punishment due to his crime
We sacrifice the wicked king
Acknowledged by scriptures and law
Let him curse my name
On these blood-stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name but remember the truth
On these blood-stained pages of misery
Let him call me a tyrant so cruel
Let him curse my name but remember the truth
We won't take it anymore
Our voice it shall be heard
We won't take it anymore
But I will remember the truth
We won't take it anymore
Our voice it shall be heard
We won't take it anymore
But I will remember the truth
Grew up on blind guardian and its such a honour to hear such a good cover. Well played.
Thank you 😀
That's the first Blind Guardian Cover I heared wich is actually as good as the original.
Wow!! Thank you so much!
I think it’s better! 👏
@ᏃεאїᎢᎻ ᎾF ᴏʏғᴜᴍ Bro the original has a screeching high pitch coming in at the big crescendo in the middle, it makes it Rather difficult to listen to
No comment for such magic cover...im hearing it every time i want to relax...well done guys...
Thank you so much 😊
I think I could listen to 2:16 - 2:44 on repeat..... all day.
This. Is. Perfect. It's so much simpler than the sound-packed-orgy-original yet so much more real, so much more involving and convincing. Grab a guitar, sing it at a campfire, make everybody happy. Love it.
Thank you 😊
I'm scouring through Blind Guardian covers at the moment, and this one is so lovingly done. Having a great composition to perform is one thing, but interpreting and performing such a composition is another. Fantastically and memorably executed.
Thank you very much Sean. 😊😊 We did also Harvest Of Sorrow. Die you See?
There are many covers of Blind Guardian amongst this rivers and forests, but of all of them, this one is the best. THE FUCKING BEST.
+Desiderius Zimerman Many thanks! Glad to read, that you all like it!
No, thanks YOU for this!
I cannot stress enough how on point this arrangement is. One of the rare times I'd say the cover is better than the original. But this feels much more natural in Melanie's vocal range, and the arrangement feels more natural to the song itself. Absolutely stellar job.
Thank you very much 😀😀
Fantastic!
I rarely feel compelled to comment on youtube, but this was amazing. Impressive! Subscribed!!!!
This is definitely the best BG cover version I´ve ever heard and seen! Congrats to this amazing job! Indeed I´m impressed! All thumbs up! :-)
Oh wow!!! Thank you so much!!! 😊😊😊
Thank you 😊😊
Awesome!
Wow! Utterly nailed it!
This gives me shivers. You guys really did justice to Blind Guardian. Great cover!
One of the most powerfull cover i've seen in my life !
I listen to this song everyday when i wake up with my tea or coffee and it just relaxes me so much. Great job guys I feel like I'm sharing a flagon of ale in the tavern with my comrades after a long quest!
Thank you very much Max 😀
One of the greatest covers I've ever heard. absolutely stellar
Probably my favorite M&M song. Soooooo good.
Thank you so much ☺️☺️☺️
I think curse my name and battlefield are the most underated BG songs , they deserve more! :) Great cover!
Dejan Bogdanovic thorn too!

I can listen all day long, thank you so much for this:)

l'uomo mi porta a viaggiare con la mente nel medioevo non so perche'.
ragazzi fate queste canzoni, queste, queste medioevalleggianti
fantastici
fantasticly done! Brings out the real medieval atmoshpere of the song. Love the harmonies, you two have great voices!!

What a fantastic arrangement and performance by all - the video is awesome too - I particularly like the part where you can see Martin's breath in the cold

Wunderschöne Musik. Toll in Szene gesetzt in klösterlicher Atmosphäre. Spitzenklasse!
Brilliant Cover! I wish you make some more on Blind Guardian ballads! (bowing and applauding)
For example Bright Eyes :)
Thank you my friend. We will See what happens next. 😍
An enthusiastic thumbs up as this is crazy good. I was unfamiliar with Blind Guardian, so I also appreciate that introduction.
Holy......that was absolutely amazing 👏 😍.
I immediately shared this video on my Facebook page and you've earned yourself a new subscriber.
This is high quality music❤❣❣😎🙏🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
Thank you very much! We really appreaciate your words! Thanks for supporting :)
Loved it, well done guys, more like this, Awesome!!!
Majestic work!
That was sick! Fucking awesome! Greetings from Brazil!!
Hey Martin! Thank you for amazing cover. I am fan of Blind Guardian, and I became fan of your covers! You are amazing guitarist. I wish one day you will make cover for Skalds and Shadow. It is one of my favourite song. Huge love from Turkey!
Hey :) wow! hank you so much for your kind words!! I will check out the song :)
Well done. Specially at the big moment at 2:11 onward. Truly a masterful cover.
Thank you very much ❤️
I am amazed and can't stop listening to your piece! Congrats people. Pure awesomeness ^^
You guys are something else. Amazing work
Thanks Joseph 😊😊😊
Klasse! Eure beiden Stimmen passen einfach perfekt zusammen.
Vaya pedazo version
Outstanding cover (as always ) Thanks for your gift of great music.
I've been on CZcams since it's beginning and I left 5, maybe 6 comments throughout all those years. And I never felt so obligated to leave a comment, as I do now (well, actually for two months already - this comment is long overdue).
I'm also a huge fan of Blind Guardian since 90's, they've been and still are one of my 3 most loved bands. "Curse My Name" is my favourite song from "At the Edge of Time".
Well, I just want to say, I've never seen such a beautiful cover. On any song of any band. Actually, with all my love of original version, I still think your version is better. It's just perfect, there's nothing to add or substract.
So, from the depths of my heart - thank you! Thank you for this. Since I've heard it for the first time I listened to it numerous times, and I can't describe my feelings, except by the word "beautiful". Thank you!
You should make it available on iTunes or any other platform. I feel bad for "stealing" it: I've downloaded this video and ripped sound out of it and uploaded to my phone, so I could have this your cover with me all the times. I will buy it the moment I see it available to buy.
You guys made an incredible job. Thank you once again.
takopus Thank you so much 😀😀 awesome and warm words, that make us very happy!!
Hammer... Als absoluter Blind Guardian Fan...ein fettes daumen Hoch, für diese geile Coverversion.... Love IT \m/

Absolutely beautiful. I love Bling Guardian but this is, dare I say, better than the original IMO. Amazing.
Her voice is wonderfully strong and gentle all at once.
Thank you 😊
I got chills while listening to this! Absolutely amazing guys!
Another great cover :)
I absolutely love your covers, please keep them coming! You are so very talented!
Thanks :) Yes we will do :)
This version deserves so much more credit the original artist is amazing but you did this song so much better than the original !.... your voices and the flute it takes you to a different place that I think the original artist attempted to do and he did but you did this song so much more justice thank you for your sharing your voice
Wow!!! Thank you so much Lucy 😊
Absolutely beautiful. Well done 👏 ❤
