Burzum - Jesu Død

En skikkelse lå der på bakken
så vond at de blomster rundt visnet
en dyster sjel lå der på bakken
så kald at alt vann ble til is

En skygge da falt over skogen
da skikkelsens sjel visnet bort
for skikkelsens sjel var en skygge
en skygge av vondskapens makt

[Jesus' Tod]

Eine Gestalt lag auf dem Boden
so bösartig, dass die Blumen um sie herum verwelkten
eine dunkle Seele lag auf dem Boden
so kalt, dass alles Wasser sich in Eis verwandelte

Ein Schatten fiel über den Wald
als des Gestalts Seele dahinwelkte
denn des Gestalts Seele war ein Schatten
ein Schatten der Kräfte des Bösen.

[redstickviking]

It wouldn't matter if it was recorded in a forest, in a prison cell or in a modern studio, Jesu Død still has one of the most sinister sounding main riffs of all time.

[hagenblad]

One man band cover on a one man band. Not bad, not bad.

[molletre]

Funny, they all look the same in that band!

[lucabeni]

This is not a cover. This is a rebirth.

[funny_money_ad_infinitum]

This sinister riff that made metal history.

[aidanbohan]

I don’t like the way the bassist looks at the guitarist

[perki]

Opening riff is just pure evil, always coming back for this exceptional cover!

[MusaTariq]

I think you're the first person on YouTube to cover this song all the way through on drums. Amazing job all around, man!

[your_belief_vs_everything]

I showed my 13yo son who is learning drums. My 6yo son soon gathered around and we all stood around appreciating what dedication and craft looks like. Thanks for being an inspiration. Also it's nice to listen to while my boys headbang by the fire pit at night.

It may be a biased remark, but I still think to this day - the black metal Varg created back in the day cannot be bested. Your cover this classic is spot on and as great as the original. Great work!

[plciferpffer]

Your norwegian is awesome.
I could understand all the words.
Hail from Norway.

[levlevrevolution]

Dude this sounds so different when it's not recorded with a toaster... I still prefer the toaster version tho props to the good work anyway

[BlackHermit]

A cover of a song from Filosofem, done in 2016! This shows us that Burzum has left a mark on this fucking rotten world.

[literaturaparaoir]

Esta versión es una obra de arte. Saludos desde Colombia

[johnnyhuztle]

this dude is focused af and it also makes you appreciate the amount of work that went into composing the original song. amazing

[Richter]

To be honest, the most of the times I want to listen to this Burzum Classic I listen to your cover than the original one. Amazing sound quality!

En skikkelse lå der på bakken
Så vond at de blomster rundt visnet
En dyster sjel lå der på bakken
Så kald at alt vann ble til is

En skygge da falt over skogen
Da skikkelsens sjel visnet bort
For skikkelsens sjel var en skygge
En skygge av vondskapens makt


----English translation----

A figure lay there on the hilltop
So evil that the flowers around withered
A gloomy soul lay there on the hilltop
So cold that the water turned to ice

A shadow then settled over the woods
Then the figure's soul withered away
Because the figure's soul was a shadow
A shadow of the evil power

[olavolavson]

Why ook it four years for the algorithms to put that on my front page? This is mindblowingly awesome, dude.

[Thepunishingguy]

I can't stop listening to this cover, seriously, it's become one of my favourite songs of the recent times!

[ShaneBermingham]

Filosofem = Masterpiece
This cover = Excellent
