wow i love this cover but the irony is that the original song always sounded so sad to me that i can't really find much of the difference of this cover and the original in terms of the sadness it brings me (let aside the other feelings). They're just both sad. The original has a more overwhelming sense of emotions, though i like the calming sadness of this version too.
@@willofficialRBLXyeah but the contrasting tone of the og one is what makes it so good. From an upbeat beat to a sad but epic one, signifies the rise and fall of an empire, and all that remains is a crownless king, the last vestige of a titan.
THIS is exactly how this song always felt to me. I think the sad version matches the lyrics perfectly, it is meant to be that way as far as I'm concerned. I even prefer this over the original tbh
I'd argue that was the point of the original song. The grand melody contrasted with the lyrics, highlighting the highs the narrator had as a king, before at the end the music sober up to deliver the sad undertone. Reminded me of Ozymandias by Percy Shelley, where the grandiose claims hammered down further the sombre reality of the story.
@@juanchoresultay2704 In the original song you could still hear his voice. I think this is supposed to represent the mind of King Louis XVI over the drums being played when his speech was interrupted before his execution.
There is a special and unique word in portuguese called "saudade", which no other language has. Saudade is the word we use to refer to the feeling of missing something or someone (ex: i am with saudades of you). The violin of the original song by Coldplay is just impecable at manifesting what saudade feels like. The drums when he talks about Jerusalem's bells perfectly summons a rising kingdom, the citizens in joy, the soldiers won the battle, the bard conquered his loved one, everything is beautiful the harmony is impecable. This guy's version is very good but the original version is simply an unmatched, unique and perfect masterpiece.
I remember the first time reading the word Saudade and its meaning, man it hit so much. Such a beautiful word that explains exactly what I feel sometimes.
This popped up in my recommended and i'm not complaining, your voice is something special. Puts a smile on my face. Keep up the amazing work, you're amazing!
I know this is supposed to sound sad, and it kind of does, but to me it sounds more like you're starting to recover from a rough time in your life. Great work!
Huh, this is interesting cause Viva La Vida always sounded like a sad song to me. Like, I suppose it didn’t have an overly obvious sad tune to it, but when you pay attention to the lyrics, it’s clearly not a happy song or story. Wonderful cover! I really like your take on it!
It’s because it’s taken from the lost last speech of the king of France before his execution during the French Revolution, he tried to give a speech but the crowd booed and told them to get on with it, so they guillotined him before he could truly give his last speech
As a french, this song hits so much. It talks about French Revolution and the day when the french killed Louis XVI (revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate) in 1793. Before his execution, he wanted to give a speech but they didn't let him and he died without having the possibility to say the last few words to the French audience. That's kinda sad when you think of it. And some of the references in the original song are really related to him : "I held the key" = this phrase has of course a metaphorical meaning but also referred to Louis' passion: locksmithing. That's funny because before I never really paid intention to the lyrics but now it seems so clear to me

Basically u need two tools the key of the song and the circle of fifths. Every song (or part of a song in some cases) is written in a key, which could be major (happy tone) or minor (sad tone). Every key has a set of notes and a set of chords u can use to compose your song. The "circle of fifths" is a scheme that can be used to link a major key to its relative minor (e.g. if a song is in C major to make it sad u have to change alla C chords in Am chords, all E notes in Eb notes, all A notes in Ab notes and so on)

Always found the tune of the song very energetic, but even though this is sad, it brings a COMPLETELY new vibe that rocks. I played it on repeat at least 10 times in a row. Great voice.
Thank you. This really means a lot to me since it’s been quite tough these days. And your voice is full of emotions which kinda heal the wounds in my heart. Sincerely love it, thanks.
As soon as it finished I replayed and repeated another 10 times. WOW! Your voice is absolutely beautiful. So calming. You made this song 10x sadder, I love it 🥰
What a CLEAN voice and background music. It's a whole experience listen to this masterpiece with headphones. I like it better than the original. Love your voiceeee 😩🥺😭😭❤️❤️
Geez, this is amazing, and I love the soft beat that kicked in so much. Also, amazing voice!! Viva la Vida has definitely always been my favorite song by them, so its really nice to hear such an amazing and sweet cover of it
I always thought this song was sad but it gives me Villian Vibes so i don't mind! But gosh your voice is absolutely beautiful! Like i am crying with how gorgeous is! You sooth my soul and I needed this. Thank you. Thank you so much Have a lovely day! Love you all!!!! 💖
We all need to agree that we need this on singing platforms!! It is angelic and you’ve literally made me see a whole new aspect of singing an already sad song that hits the spot even more.
The original had a very nostalgic feel to it while this has a more sad song vibe to it. I kinda like the original more cause of the nostalgic chords that carried it through. But i like this one as well cause it's something i can just play and vibe with
absolutely beautiful cover. this is one of my most favorite songs and you really captured how the nostalgia and regret i often associate with this song.
this is how i always felt the song. the lyrics are so bittersweet and full of regret... then hearing it in the mincraft cover just pushed that idea forward.. thanks for bringing the idea to life
This song really echoes on my pretty short 16 years of living in this floating ball of rock. I was an academic achiever back then on my elementary days, I always had what i wanted, everyone would be very happy to see me, its like im famous or something and everyone would just like me, they'd treat me right and basically everyone liked me, until one day, i lost the academic achievements, those achievements are like everything to me back then but i only realized it pretty recently, i started with an academic achiever streak to just a student until i reached rock bottom, which is now, now i even receive failing grades. I was on top of the world, I had a taste on what being the best feels like, and tbh it felt really amazing, now i lose the most important friends and people because of being irresponsible and being a stupid person. If you've reached this far and you relate to what im saying, if you are irresponsible and lazy as well, learn this lesson "Be Responsible, Work Hard And Smart" and change your life. I'd like to turn my life around, i hope you can turn yours as well.
I'd like to turn my life around too, it would happen some day eventually, there's no way we could continue living like this, but still somehow that day feels far. Of course it would just take a change of attitude, but after a couple of years of not changing it gets demoralising. there are so many factors i could blame(such as covid and hanging out with a sketchy crowd), but im unconvinced, it's definitely my fault. im 16 too, and it was nice seeing this message, because of how much i resonate with it. I hope we both turn our lives around as soon as possible. Ahem. Let's go! We can do it!
This song came out and i cried to it because all those memories comes back long ago just hearing this cover of yours made it more sad and so good damn it brings all those thoughts in to mind ....its just wonderful 😁🙌🏼
This is such a beautiful version of the song. To some reason I'm so obsessed with it when I play it on the violin. You're also a really good singer! This is so beautiful, and in my opinion the way viva la vida is supposed to be. It's such a great cover of the song !!1!!!1 overall, 1000000/10
__Lyrics__ I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes Listened as the crowd would sing Now the old king is dead! Long live the king! One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain Once you'd gone, there was never Never an honest word That was when I ruled the world It was the wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn't believe what I'd become Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh, who would ever want to be king? I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing Roman Cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can't explain I know Saint Peter won't call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world
@@reubenalthafhuizen1640 I personally enjoy it better bc I can see the words ahead of time when singing along, so I'm assuming the purpose is for that exactly :]
Very well said indeed. An example of the two ways of thinking, and sadly there is a third one, happy that it’s over, hope in the future noone will have that one, i’ve dealt with it and damn it’s hard, but you’ll come back out fighting stronger than ever before. You don’t know what you have until it’s lost. Just like time, when youre not paying attention it’ll slip right through your hands, including the beautiful moments
@@roanoord6436 So very well said, sir or ma'am. You know, this hits really close to home for me, as I have also been through this. And I'll tell you too, that it's hard asf. But like you said, it makes you stronger. Like people say, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I've learnt a lot in my life from a incredibly young age. But I'm grateful for it because now I'm stronger than most adults, and I'm a teenager. People my age are making huge mistakes that shape the rest of their lives, while I see the difference between right and wrong, clearly. It's because I've learnt to do so. And after all that, I still get to teach others lessons about life, and guide them in some way I can. So they don't go on, to make the same mistakes as I did.
Just amazing. You have an amazing voice! I love this song and this version of the song makes me feel very calm and all of my problems flow away. Thank you and keep making music!❤❤❤
I honestly thought Viva La Vida was already a pretty sad song to begin with but you have proven me wrong sir, it can get so.. SO much sadder, good work
This is my favorite song, and the only complaint I had is I wish it was just a TINY bit slower so other people could understand the story the lyrics told. While the violin in the original is essential to the song (and obviously you can’t do everything) getting a collab where the violin is introduced at the same cadence would be absolutely incredible.
한글 자막 ver. I used to rule the world [난 세상을 지배했었지] Seas would rise when I gave the word [내가 명령하면 바다까지 솟아 올랐어] Now in the morning I sleep alone [하지만 이제 아침에 난 홀로 잠들고] Sweep the streets I used to own [과거 내 것이였던 거리를 날려 보냈지] I used to roll the dice [난 주사위를 굴리곤 했어] Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes [적의 눈에 생긴 두려움을 즐겼지] Listen as the crowd would sing [군중들이 노래하는듯한 환청이 들려와] Now the old king is dead, Long live the king [이제 늙은 왕은 죽었어, 왕이시여 만수무강하소서] One minute I held the key [한순간 내가 열쇠를 쥐고 있었지만] Next the walls were closed on me [그 순간 벽들이 나를 가로막았고] And I discovered that my castles stand [그때 나는 내 성이 무엇으로 지어졌는지 깨달았지] Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand [내 성은 소금과 모래로 만든 기둥일 뿐인것을] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing [난 예루살렘의 종이 울리는 것을 들었고] Roman Cavalry choirs are singing [로마 기병대의 합창대가 노래했지] Be my mirror my sword and shield [나의 거울과 검, 그리고 방패가 되어주길] My missionaries in a foreign field [타지에 뿌리내린 나의 선교사들이여] For some reason I can't explain [어떤 이유인지는 설명 할 수 없지만] Once you go there was never [당신이 왕의 자리로 간다면 절대로] Never a honest word [진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거라고] And that was when I ruled the world [그리고 이건 한때 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네] It was a wicked and wild wind [그건 사악하고 거친 바람이었어] Blew down the doors to let me in [나를 들어가게 하기위해 바람을 불어왔지] Shattered windows and the sound of drums [산산조각난 창문과 북치는 소리가 들려와] People couldn't believe what I'd become [사람들은 내가 어떻게 될 지 믿지 못할거야] Revolutionaries wait [혁명가들이 기다리는 것은] For my head on a silver plate [은쟁반 위에 올려진 내 머리이고] Just a puppet on a lonely string [그저 한가닥의 외로운 실이 연결된 꼭두각시일 뿐이야] Oh who would ever want to be king? [이제 누가 왕이 되길 바랄까?] I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing [난 예루살렘에 울리는 종소리를 들었고] Roman Calvary choirs are singing [로마 기병대의 합창대가 노래했지] Be my mirror my sword and shield [나의 거울과 검, 그리고 방패가 되어주길] My missionaries in a foreign field [타지에 뿌리내린 나의 선교사들이여] For some reason I can't explain [어떤 이유인지는 설명 할 수 없기때문에] I know Saint Peter won't call my name [성 배드로가 내 이름을 불러주지 않을것을 알고있지] Never an honest word [진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거야] But that was when I ruled the world [그러나 이 이야기는 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네] Oh oh oh oh oh Never an honest word [진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거야] But that was when I ruled the world [그러나 이 이야기는 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네]
I love the original but your version just lights up the lyrics and helps vividly picture the scene of loneliness, decline, the end of a king. It’s like ive waited for your version all this time but didn’t know it.
I find that this song is very symbolic because it’s obviously about the King of France but for me it also meant how someone who had it all or at least could, suddenly loses everything that he had. Everyone is surprised of what he’d become. How was it possible for someone who had it all could be like this now… It could be associated with any situation, like moving to another country or place where you had everything, everyone knew you but now you have to start again without having any friends. Always appreciate all the moments you are living because soon they will disappear and another moment will come.
I like how he is not trying to replicate original Artist and actually using his own original voice. Whether in a pro or a noob it always sound good if the person isn't doing it for Fame but actually being themselves. Thanks for giving out these positive vibes!
This is my mom’s favorite song and it took slowing it down and having the lyrics to realize what I thought were the words were actually very wrong. You did a beautiful job you are very talented

I like the way you sing, I like how you deliver the massage of the song. The melody is really amazingly matching with your voice colour. Hopefully, you may cover songs typically coldplay's song.

I already love Viva la Vida, but this song is just…wow. This song is absolutely amazing, how it feels so light and heavy at the same time. Thank you for making my new favourite song, it will forever hold a place in my heard ❤❤❤
Holy wowza, how does this feel like it changes the song's meaning? It's as if someone really lost it all, and now they're left with nothing but themselves and the repercussions of their actions. Love this cover!
I’m not usually a big fan of covers where people use their voice to their fullest extent, showing off kinda. But this is special. The ending could fade out but, good job. ❤
I always thought this song was already sad but nah this def a different tone of sad. The Original was like a loud tragedy of sorts. This is like a soft mourning. Nice work
Theres just this noglastic feeling to this song that takes you back to your childhood Before hardships, relationships, and troubles I’ve myself always thought of this song as sorrowful And you here my friend just executed that perfectly Really it really takes my mind someplace else I just miss all my friends and my special people in my life It truly just makes me cry looking at old pictures of us while listening to this
this song meant to be sad from the very beginning, and you made it 100th time sadder with this version ... an excellent cover for this song ..you made it exactly how it should be

How’d you transform an already song into a sadder version?! Such a good job! I feel like this better suits the original’s lyrics
Basically u need two tools the key of the song and the circle of fifths. Every song (or part of a song in some cases) is written in a key, which could be major (happy tone) or minor (sad tone).

As soon as it finished I replayed and repeated another 10 times. WOW! Your voice is absolutely beautiful. So calming. You made this song 10x sadder, I love it 🥰
What a CLEAN voice and background music. It's a whole experience listen to this masterpiece with headphones. I like it better than the original. Love your voiceeee 😩🥺😭😭❤️❤️
Is his voice as clean as sounds? Let me doubt it.
Ever since the song came out many years ago, I somehow felt melancholic whenever I hear it. Thank you for getting it there.
Geez, this is amazing, and I love the soft beat that kicked in so much. Also, amazing voice!! Viva la Vida has definitely always been my favorite song by them, so its really nice to hear such an amazing and sweet cover of it
I love this version!!! You’re voice is so expressive and so good for this song! Thank you so much for doing this! It sounds awesome!
Man your voice fits this sad version perfectly, I absolutely LOVE this!
I always thought this song was sad but it gives me Villian Vibes so i don't mind!
But gosh your voice is absolutely beautiful! Like i am crying with how gorgeous is! You sooth my soul and I needed this.
Thank you. Thank you so much
Have a lovely day!
Love you all!!!! 💖
We all need to agree that we need this on singing platforms!! It is angelic and you’ve literally made me see a whole new aspect of singing an already sad song that hits the spot even more.
God i wish I could sing like you. You absolutely smashed this cover!
The original had a very nostalgic feel to it while this has a more sad song vibe to it. I kinda like the original more cause of the nostalgic chords that carried it through. But i like this one as well cause it's something i can just play and vibe with
absolutely beautiful cover. this is one of my most favorite songs and you really captured how the nostalgia and regret i often associate with this song.
this is how i always felt the song. the lyrics are so bittersweet and full of regret... then hearing it in the mincraft cover just pushed that idea forward.. thanks for bringing the idea to life
This song really echoes on my pretty short 16 years of living in this floating ball of rock. I was an academic achiever back then on my elementary days, I always had what i wanted, everyone would be very happy to see me, its like im famous or something and everyone would just like me, they'd treat me right and basically everyone liked me, until one day, i lost the academic achievements, those achievements are like everything to me back then but i only realized it pretty recently, i started with an academic achiever streak to just a student until i reached rock bottom, which is now, now i even receive failing grades. I was on top of the world, I had a taste on what being the best feels like, and tbh it felt really amazing, now i lose the most important friends and people because of being irresponsible and being a stupid person.
If you've reached this far and you relate to what im saying, if you are irresponsible and lazy as well, learn this lesson "Be Responsible, Work Hard And Smart" and change your life. I'd like to turn my life around, i hope you can turn yours as well.
Wishing you the Best of luck💛💛
Keep chasing your dreams and Never Give up✌️
I'd like to turn my life around too, it would happen some day eventually, there's no way we could continue living like this, but still somehow that day feels far. Of course it would just take a change of attitude, but after a couple of years of not changing it gets demoralising. there are so many factors i could blame(such as covid and hanging out with a sketchy crowd), but im unconvinced, it's definitely my fault. im 16 too, and it was nice seeing this message, because of how much i resonate with it. I hope we both turn our lives around as soon as possible. Ahem. Let's go! We can do it!
idk what to say man, if i were to say smth id tell you to listen to this song ig...
good luck with life, you deserve a good one
Relate to this. I'm also sixteen and struggling academically. Hope things are looking up for you and you succeed in everything that matters to you.
Keep going. Jesus loves you.
absolutely love his voice and you could hear the emotions he's poured into this. glad I'm here for the ride - can't wait for Drunk Text!!
This cover really gives me chills, congrats dude
진짜 목소리 미쳤다...
반가운 한국인!!!
This song came out and i cried to it because all those memories comes back long ago just hearing this cover of yours made it more sad and so good damn it brings all those thoughts in to mind ....its just wonderful 😁🙌🏼
This is such a beautiful version of the song. To some reason I'm so obsessed with it when I play it on the violin. You're also a really good singer! This is so beautiful, and in my opinion the way viva la vida is supposed to be. It's such a great cover of the song !!1!!!1 overall, 1000000/10
__Lyrics__
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listened as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead!
Long live the king!
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you'd gone, there was never
Never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh, who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
When u loose all ur diamonds, Swords and armour bc u died without keep inventory on
you do realize that its written in the video... right?
Thanks
@@Link_Hyrule211 Why would you have it on in the first place, if you die you should go back and get your stuff. 👀
@@reubenalthafhuizen1640
I personally enjoy it better bc I can see the words ahead of time when singing along, so I'm assuming the purpose is for that exactly :]
this is a good example of life honestly. u can be happy that it happened or sad that its gone
Well said, mate. Well said.
Very well said indeed. An example of the two ways of thinking, and sadly there is a third one, happy that it’s over, hope in the future noone will have that one, i’ve dealt with it and damn it’s hard, but you’ll come back out fighting stronger than ever before. You don’t know what you have until it’s lost. Just like time, when youre not paying attention it’ll slip right through your hands, including the beautiful moments
@@roanoord6436 So very well said, sir or ma'am. You know, this hits really close to home for me, as I have also been through this. And I'll tell you too, that it's hard asf. But like you said, it makes you stronger. Like people say, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I've learnt a lot in my life from a incredibly young age. But I'm grateful for it because now I'm stronger than most adults, and I'm a teenager. People my age are making huge mistakes that shape the rest of their lives, while I see the difference between right and wrong, clearly. It's because I've learnt to do so. And after all that, I still get to teach others lessons about life, and guide them in some way I can. So they don't go on, to make the same mistakes as I did.
Just amazing. You have an amazing voice! I love this song and this version of the song makes me feel very calm and all of my problems flow away. Thank you and keep making music!❤❤❤
I honestly thought Viva La Vida was already a pretty sad song to begin with but you have proven me wrong sir, it can get so.. SO much sadder, good work
This is my favorite song, and the only complaint I had is I wish it was just a TINY bit slower so other people could understand the story the lyrics told. While the violin in the original is essential to the song (and obviously you can’t do everything) getting a collab where the violin is introduced at the same cadence would be absolutely incredible.
한글 자막 ver.
I used to rule the world
[난 세상을 지배했었지]
Seas would rise when I gave the word
[내가 명령하면 바다까지 솟아 올랐어]
Now in the morning I sleep alone
[하지만 이제 아침에 난 홀로 잠들고]
Sweep the streets I used to own
[과거 내 것이였던 거리를 날려 보냈지]
I used to roll the dice
[난 주사위를 굴리곤 했어]
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
[적의 눈에 생긴 두려움을 즐겼지]
Listen as the crowd would sing
[군중들이 노래하는듯한 환청이 들려와]
Now the old king is dead, Long live the king
[이제 늙은 왕은 죽었어, 왕이시여 만수무강하소서]
One minute I held the key
[한순간 내가 열쇠를 쥐고 있었지만]
Next the walls were closed on me
[그 순간 벽들이 나를 가로막았고]
And I discovered that my castles stand
[그때 나는 내 성이 무엇으로 지어졌는지 깨달았지]
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[내 성은 소금과 모래로 만든 기둥일 뿐인것을]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[난 예루살렘의 종이 울리는 것을 들었고]
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
[로마 기병대의 합창대가 노래했지]
Be my mirror my sword and shield
[나의 거울과 검, 그리고 방패가 되어주길]
My missionaries in a foreign field
[타지에 뿌리내린 나의 선교사들이여]
For some reason I can't explain
[어떤 이유인지는 설명 할 수 없지만]
Once you go there was never
[당신이 왕의 자리로 간다면 절대로]
Never a honest word
[진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거라고]
And that was when I ruled the world
[그리고 이건 한때 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네]
It was a wicked and wild wind
[그건 사악하고 거친 바람이었어]
Blew down the doors to let me in
[나를 들어가게 하기위해 바람을 불어왔지]
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
[산산조각난 창문과 북치는 소리가 들려와]
People couldn't believe what I'd become
[사람들은 내가 어떻게 될 지 믿지 못할거야]
Revolutionaries wait
[혁명가들이 기다리는 것은]
For my head on a silver plate
[은쟁반 위에 올려진 내 머리이고]
Just a puppet on a lonely string
[그저 한가닥의 외로운 실이 연결된 꼭두각시일 뿐이야]
Oh who would ever want to be king?
[이제 누가 왕이 되길 바랄까?]
I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
[난 예루살렘에 울리는 종소리를 들었고]
Roman Calvary choirs are singing
[로마 기병대의 합창대가 노래했지]
Be my mirror my sword and shield
[나의 거울과 검, 그리고 방패가 되어주길]
My missionaries in a foreign field
[타지에 뿌리내린 나의 선교사들이여]
For some reason I can't explain
[어떤 이유인지는 설명 할 수 없기때문에]
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
[성 배드로가 내 이름을 불러주지 않을것을 알고있지]
Never an honest word
[진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거야]
But that was when I ruled the world
[그러나 이 이야기는 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네]
Oh oh oh oh oh
Never an honest word
[진실된 말은 단 하나도 없을거야]
But that was when I ruled the world
[그러나 이 이야기는 내가 세상을 지배했던 이야기라네]
ㅇㄷ
who asked you???
@@AlienSuperman007 Fucking Your mom asked🤔
칸고쿠는 역시... 신이야
@kyawzinphyoe7024 what's the problem?
I love the original but your version just lights up the lyrics and helps vividly picture the scene of loneliness, decline, the end of a king. It’s like ive waited for your version all this time but didn’t know it.
I find that this song is very symbolic because it’s obviously about the King of France but for me it also meant how someone who had it all or at least could, suddenly loses everything that he had. Everyone is surprised of what he’d become. How was it possible for someone who had it all could be like this now… It could be associated with any situation, like moving to another country or place where you had everything, everyone knew you but now you have to start again without having any friends. Always appreciate all the moments you are living because soon they will disappear and another moment will come.
I like how he is not trying to replicate original Artist and actually using his own original voice. Whether in a pro or a noob it always sound good if the person isn't doing it for Fame but actually being themselves. Thanks for giving out these positive vibes!
This song means a lot to me and you sang it beautifully
just found you. beautiful cover. one of my favorites forever and really how i always felt about the song.
Dudeeee this is gorgeous?? You have such an amazing voice!! I will definitely be listening to this song on repeat a lot.
Amazing. I can't recall the last time I just sat down and stopped whatever it is I was doing to listen to a song and fully absorb it.
This is my mom’s favorite song and it took slowing it down and having the lyrics to realize what I thought were the words were actually very wrong. You did a beautiful job you are very talented
It feels so your voice was made for this song your voice implements the song just right it feels soo soothing hope to listen more from you ❤
You executed “Who would ever want to be king?” So perfectly
Beautiful 🖤
those lyrics are written by angels. too magical. beautiful rendition of this beautiful song. < 3
I’ve always though the song was sad, but this took it to a different level! Your voice is great!
dude this is beautiful, your voice is so smooth and those higher notes sounded effortless, you've 100% earned a subscription and can't wait to hear more! ❤️
man. this struck me back to when coldplay released this song and i was just a kid. thanks for this intense moment of intense mixed feelings. i cant even describe what this felt like
My god Henry, just totally recreated this song for me. You are insanely talented. This is my favourite track on youtube so far this year. Killed it

I don't have words for this! Simply amazing!
I like the way you sing, I like how you deliver the massage of the song. The melody is really amazingly matching with your voice colour. Hopefully, you may cover songs typically coldplay's song.
Excuse me, I didn't expect to go on and be on the verge of sobbing as I listened to this. You did this very well, thank you for making me sob.
가끔은 이런 느낌을 원할때가 있었는데 이런느낌 딱 좋은것같네요 뭔가 점점 저물어가는 노을앞에서 지금까지의 삶을 돌아보며 잔잔하게 부르는 노래같아요
without fail at 0:27 seconds every single time i hear this part of the song my brain automatically supplies “it was the creepers and the skeletons, blew down the doors and let me in” and i am so sorry
Yes the real version lol
I already love Viva la Vida, but this song is just…wow. This song is absolutely amazing, how it feels so light and heavy at the same time. Thank you for making my new favourite song, it will forever hold a place in my heard ❤❤❤
Beautiful voice 😊 Best version of this song I've heard
Holy wowza, how does this feel like it changes the song's meaning? It's as if someone really lost it all, and now they're left with nothing but themselves and the repercussions of their actions. Love this cover!
I always imagine myself in a warm summer in Venice when the sun is setting when I hear this song.
that's so beautiful, what an imaginative mind you have. ❤
Bro, this got me tearing up... I felt like my dad came back but I remembered.. This so fire though anyway.
I’m not usually a big fan of covers where people use their voice to their fullest extent, showing off kinda. But this is special. The ending could fade out but, good job. ❤
A very unique take on this absolute masterpiece. Loved your voice.
Here after Rosé's cover, both are amazing
I literally have this on repeat. I used to love this song so much, and I love this version.
I can't get enough of your version. Great work
Viva La vida is a beautifully sad song, honestly the greatest song ever you always feel something when listening to it
this is so good! you have such an angelic voice! i saw you at the vamps in belfast and i hope you come back for your tour!
New favorite cover of any song I’ve heard. Your voice is angelic!
Your voice is amazing. Love this cover so much
Such incredibly clean vocal work, effortless. So glad that I found this today.
Your really talented at singing . Hopefully you hit 200k subscribers. God loves you and forgives you.
COLDPLAY NEED TO WATCH THIS, THIS IS AMAZING!!!!
“One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me”
Another line that hit’s🥺🥺
I always thought this song was already sad but nah this def a different tone of sad. The Original was like a loud tragedy of sorts. This is like a soft mourning. Nice work
Your voice sounds amazing 🤩
Theres just this noglastic feeling to this song that takes you back to your childhood
Before hardships, relationships, and troubles
I’ve myself always thought of this song as sorrowful
And you here my friend just executed that perfectly
Really it really takes my mind someplace else
I just miss all my friends and my special people in my life
It truly just makes me cry looking at old pictures of us while listening to this
damn i wish this was in spotify, great cover!
진짜 목소리 너무 좋다…축복받았음.. 헨리를 몰랐을땐 릴스에서 그냥 짧게듣고 넘어갔는데 헨리였어ㅜㅜ 진짜 쩔어 그냥!!!
this song meant to be sad from the very beginning, and you made it 100th time sadder with this version ... an excellent cover for this song ..you made it exactly how it should be
I almost shed tears. This is one of my favorite Coldplay songs and you covered it beautifully!
there are just some songs that hit different this is one of them
i love coldplay went to see them in glasgow best night ever
*Oh I really really really love this version. Thanks! 🥺*
