  • Hello everyone,
    I'm uploading this video at the point that my subscriber count is at 499! This is incredible, I would have never expected my channel to grow so fast. Thank you, when you read this, for being a loyal subscriber. Its an honour for me to have you in my crew!!
    Today I chose Africa - (Toto) - medieval style. (I saw that some other guys on youtube did a medieval style version of this song earlier. So just to make sure: I made this version on my own, without any help of those videos. So you can say that it's just coincidence that I made a medieval version of that song too.)
    Enjoy :D
    (Original version: Toto)

      For this kind of thing it’s easier to use faux-Early Modern English. Adding -eth suffixes to stuff and saying ‘thou’ and ‘one.’ Just because it’s easier to understand and has a better comedic effect than proper Old English
