Hildegard von Blingin’ is pretty good too.

Plus their name is unreasonably funny.



From the Gotye "Somebody that I used to know" cover, modified lyrics?

"To send a wagon for thy minstrel and refuse my letters"

"Was there cause to cast me off?"

The absolute totally freakin' brilliance!


"All ye bully-rooks with your buskin boots"

"Best ye go, best ye go"

"Outrun my bow"

Oh god, I'm in tears. This is amazing.


I also like the_miracle_aligner[0], here's his take on Smells Like Teen Spirit in classical latin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbEKIW3pUUk

I so wish she would descend from her cloister and grace us with more of her bangin' tunes.

There's nothing I love more than when exceptionally skilled people spend a ton of effort on what's essentially a joke. Her version of Jolene is crazy good, and all of her small changes to the lyrics and the music are absolutely perfect. Ridiculously accurate re-styling of the song!


Hildegard von Blingin' is the absolute #1 best.


Those vocals wow!


And she can sing. Really really well.


> unreasonably funny

Why is it 'unreasonable' to be funny?


This has all the hallmarks of being terrible, yet it is not. I also felt that it was unreasonably good.

Or maybe you were trying to make a joke?


As in, it's both stupid and brilliant and never ceases to be amusing.
