The thing about Colm that's so impressive is his sheer range of talent. Beautiful tenor? Check. Soulful baritone? You got it. Cellulite-shaking bass? Let’s RUMMMBLE. Plays an instrument? Literally all of them.
@@user-jt1js5mr3f you really should. I can see skipping the others if the first doesn't do it for you, but definitely watch the first all the way through at least once.
I really appreciate that you covered not only All stars and I'm a believer but also parts of the soundtrack wich are really good and too often forgotten when we talk about Shreck soundtrack. Great cover keep up the good work ! :)
Somebody once told me That Colm was gonna troll me I can't get this song out of my heeeead. Seriously though this video is awesome. Keep up the fantastic work, Colm.
that is because John Powell wrote the original scores for Shrek and How to train your dragon so i think there might be some minor connection between the melodies. only some one who understands the theory of how the music is written can explain it better than me
John Powell and Harry Gregson-Williams composed the score of Chicken Run (which has no right to be as awesome and inspiring as it is), and part of a melody in its title score is re-used as a major part of Toothless's motif in How to Train Your Dragon... also scored by John Powell, as pieter above notes. Harry Gregson-Williams scored Sinbad, as well.
So lively and beautiful! Love the covers❤ Would love to also get full versions of the purely instrumently songs - they sound magical with your instruments
THIS....is surprising, but in a good way. Haven't watched the films in a very long time and can't really remember the soundtrack but I'm curious what you'll do with it😁
She was locked away in a castle guarded by a terrible fire-breathing dragon. Many brave knights had attempted to free her from this dreadful prison, but none prevailed.
Can't wait I'm always excited for a colm video!!! Also I don't know if you're taking requests right now, but I would love to hear the "Nightingale" from black flag!
Would you be willing to do a Scottish sea shanty? Its 'Leis a Lurighan'. Most versions are in English with just the title phrase in Scottish Gaelic. Its about a ship caught in a horrible storm and the captain telling his men to go below if they're scared or don't trust him. My all time favorite version (so far?) is by 'Scatter The Mud' ruclips.net/video/7gCynTHQwbE/видео.html There are quite a few versions but only this one really captures the feel of the song for me.
I have a request!!! The cover you did of Misty Mountains is absolutely beautiful, and I'd really like to hear more of it. Could you please, please do a full version (with the full lyrics, found in The Hobbit book)?
Off the wall suggestion. There is an old folk song here in the states called "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive" written by Darrell Scott. I think that it is begging for an Irish trad cover. Keep up the awesome work sir 👍
And the bard gathered an incredible crowd too large for the little tavern as he reimagined the memories of the Ogre and his Princess, bringing an odd sense of nostalgia in those dark ages.
Of course you did. I've felt like this was inevitable since I saw you meme All Star on one of the socials. lol I love it! Even when you're being silly, it sounds beautiful.
i put this song on in my dnd session for some tavern ambience sufficed to say, none of us were expecting to her 'im a believer' by smash mouth in a tavern style
This brings back so many memories of when I was a little kid! I’d watch Shrek on video cassette and would literally watch all the way through the credits because the songs they played were so awesome. I especially loved ‘I Wanna Stay Home Today’. It’s a hidden gem that should totally be covered if you make part 2. Thank you for this, Colm!
This hits not only from Shrek, but for some reason also reminds me of Morrowind, at this the beginning. I've only been listening for a couple weeks, but you've rapidly become one of my favorite artists. Not just "on RUclips" but overall. Something about your music and singing just brings a bit of brightness to my day. Thank you so much for what you do, and I greatly look forward to what you bring in the future :D Hope all is going well otherwise in your life
I like that you did the instrumental tunes and not just the popular songs included in the soundtrack. A lot of people forget that Shriek’s Soundtrack is more than just “All Star” and “Believer” (including me, lol 😆). So, thanks for this, Colm.
This was so good!!!! You did an excellent job👌 Also I didn't get a chance to comment on your other video, but I think your Hobbit name would be "colm Ginger chin" lol 😂
i’m surprised how amazing the non song music sounds. if i didn’t know better i would think it’s from one of the how to train your dragon movies or shows
I would literally buy a full album of these lol. I keep coming back to listen to these cause I love it so much. (Also trolling my wife by blasting the All Star part when I need to wake her up)
I know nothing about music. Can't sing, can't play, can't even dance without someone calling the paramedics -- but I know what I like. This guy's stuff is great.
Colm R Mcguiness...you are a man with amazing talent and with boatloads if potential,I've been listening to your music for around 2 years now and I must say that you are one in a billion and I thank you for the music you make Original or not.
Should we do a PART 2???
I would actually rather that you did some of the music numbers from the Musical.
Like Who I´ed Be or Big Bright Beautiful World.
Ouiiiiiiiiiiiii !!!!!
Super !!!!!!!!!😁👍🏼
Colm McGuinness Music
Is that a trick question?
That question don't even needs an answer because the yes is written in big bright and neon letters.
- So do you sing?
- Yes
- And you also play instruments?
- Yes.
- Which instruments do you play?
- Yes.
I'm laughing at this 2 years later so you'd made my day just the bit better 😅
The thing about Colm that's so impressive is his sheer range of talent.
Beautiful tenor? Check.
Soulful baritone? You got it.
Cellulite-shaking bass? Let’s RUMMMBLE.
Plays an instrument? Literally all of them.
i think he's been studying for all his life
Not even normal instruments, all the cool ones from old times. I swear, if he pulls out a Hurdy Gurdy, I'm gonna scream. Man's talent is incredible.
"Cellulite" Yes. That's what's a'quiverin'.
Bass is my favorite but I'm a biased bassophile 😅
This comment says it all.
A song so good it became Dreamworks' own "When you wish a upon a star" theme that plays before every film.
Ah, is that from shrek? Never finished the first one
@@user-jt1js5mr3f you really should. I can see skipping the others if the first doesn't do it for you, but definitely watch the first all the way through at least once.
@@user-jt1js5mr3f I watched it for the first time recently, I enjoyed it far more than I thought I would.
No kidding. It's so enchanting that it's the first tune I think of when I begin reading a fantasy book for the first time.
@@user-jt1js5mr3fyour loss bro. Shrek is a cultural phenomenon.
0:00 Once upon a time...
1:16 I’m a believer!
2:19 All Star
3:15 To the rescue!
Alternate title: Shrek if it was EVEN MORE of a fairytale land
Nice 👏 thank you very much for the time stamps. 😊
@@KecS your welcome 😋

I really appreciate that you covered not only All stars and I'm a believer but also parts of the soundtrack wich are really good and too often forgotten when we talk about Shreck soundtrack. Great cover keep up the good work ! :)
The OST is amazing, and such an amazing duo of composers too!
I never knew I needed this in my life, but apparently I do.
I thought the exact same thing
YES
oh god
helo again
The build at 3:22 is masterfully composed, so epic!
What's the name of this soundtrack?
@@christosgraikos That piece is called ‘Ride the Dragon’.
He's all of it. A beautifully tenor-baritone-bass singer, a fucking multi-instrumentalist, handsome AF.
The greatest hidden gem in the Shrek movies and he starts off with it! I appreciate that so much!
It would probably be good to have a collaboration with other singers on such tavern versions, to have that tavern friends choir aesthetic
That would be cool!
This guy never disappoints
Whoa... I didn't expect this to be an homage to the entire Shrek musical soundtrack! Well played!
Somebody once told me
That Colm was gonna troll me
I can't get this song out of my heeeead.
Seriously though this video is awesome. Keep up the fantastic work, Colm.
Fuck yeah 👍
Un ironically I'd love a full version of the instrumental parts and all star its all so good tho
Agreed, the instrumental part at the beginning was really beautiful
The instrumentals just hit in all the right spots, it’s fantastic Colm!
Brilliant job Colm, me lad! 💚 Say, do ya think you can make a 'Kung Fu Panda' Tavern version? 🐼 I grew up LOVING DreamWorks! 🌙
OH SNAP!
This was too good! You really got me at the Fiona and bird duet, and the cover of "All Stars."
I have to share this with all my friends! 😭
CHEERS! 🍻
🍻🤜🤛
Oh golly YES. One of my favorite movies getting the Colm treatment for soundtrack?! Weekend came early this week...
I like how the instrumental parts basically just sound like the music in How to Train Your Dragon
that is because John Powell wrote the original scores for Shrek and How to train your dragon so i think there might be some minor connection between the melodies. only some one who understands the theory of how the music is written can explain it better than me
DING DING DING!
John Powell and Harry Gregson-Williams composed the score of Chicken Run (which has no right to be as awesome and inspiring as it is), and part of a melody in its title score is re-used as a major part of Toothless's motif in How to Train Your Dragon... also scored by John Powell, as pieter above notes. Harry Gregson-Williams scored Sinbad, as well.
Love the detail of *NOT* starting with All Star, makes it more unique
So lively and beautiful! Love the covers❤
Would love to also get full versions of the purely instrumently songs - they sound magical with your instruments
Totally agree!
Agreed!!!
And stuff like this is why Colm is my favorite Irish celebrity. Keep up the great work, lad!
Who freakin knew this would end up being the greatest adventurer's music comp ever
THIS....is surprising, but in a good way. Haven't watched the films in a very long time and can't really remember the soundtrack but I'm curious what you'll do with it😁
This has all the making for a great shenanigans song while playing D&D next week 🤣
This is absolutely cursed in the best way possible, i cant say i was expecting an all star cover from you anytime soon, take ur like good sir!
Once upon a time there was a lovely princess. But she had an enchantment upon her of a fearful sort which could only be broken by love's first kiss.
She was locked away in a castle guarded by a terrible fire-breathing dragon. Many brave knights had attempted to free her from this dreadful prison, but none prevailed.
She waited in the dragon's keep in the highest room of the tallest tower. For her true love and true love's first kiss.
@@Og_Mangolike that will ever happen
@@Real_L.G What a load of * flush *
@@Og_Mango Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I feel like we need a full rendition of All-star now! Great work as ever.
Yes! Finally! Classic fantasy music!
Welp, you sure elavated that soundtrack.
That was the All Star cover I never knew I needed to hear.
Colm this is marvelous . It put a big smile across my face . Everything should be done as Irish
Can't wait I'm always excited for a colm video!!! Also I don't know if you're taking requests right now, but I would love to hear the "Nightingale" from black flag!

There are quite a few versions but only this one really captures the feel of the song for me.
Who the fuck gave you permission to absolutely nail this like you did. How dare you make me feel like this over a tavern cover of all star.
Now I need a full version of these covers cause WOW 💙👏🏾
I have a request!!!
The cover you did of Misty Mountains is absolutely beautiful, and I'd really like to hear more of it. Could you please, please do a full version (with the full lyrics, found in The Hobbit book)?
This is the first time I’ve understood the words to these songs. I love that about your work- your enunciation is on point.
A PART 2, PART 3 AND PART 4!!!! THIS IS AMAZING!! All you Colm fans.. You're my peeps!!
Off the wall suggestion. There is an old folk song here in the states called "You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive" written by Darrell Scott. I think that it is begging for an Irish trad cover.
Keep up the awesome work sir 👍
And the bard gathered an incredible crowd too large for the little tavern as he reimagined the memories of the Ogre and his Princess, bringing an odd sense of nostalgia in those dark ages.
wow, that was the fastest insta-subscription of my YT-life. Thats just plainly awesome
God damn. Please tell me you're gonna go some songs from the sequel, I'm dyin to hear you do "I need a hero".
Damn right!
"all star" deserve a full version.
Agreed
*me dancin around in my barefeet in the grass to this shrek bop
I would love just a whole album of your instrumental work!
Of course you did. I've felt like this was inevitable since I saw you meme All Star on one of the socials. lol I love it! Even when you're being silly, it sounds beautiful.
i put this song on in my dnd session for some tavern ambience
sufficed to say, none of us were expecting to her 'im a believer' by smash mouth in a tavern style
when you have so much talent you literally elevate the goofiest soundtrack in all of movies well played good sir! well played!!!

Fantastical, my friend! Was super excited to listen, and especially glad to hear the different parts of the movie's soundtrack as well. Well done!
это просто великолепно!!!😍 и игра на музыкальных инструментах, а голос... просто божественно🤩🤩🤩
Уникальный музыкальный канал
@@mankafi7969 согласна
The cover of I'm A Believer was spectacular and perfect 😍🤯🤯🤯
oh PLEASE give us a full "I'm a believer" like this!!
Didn't know I needed this... But I sure am glad my ears have been blessed by this Shreksellent performance.
This hits not only from Shrek, but for some reason also reminds me of Morrowind, at this the beginning. I've only been listening for a couple weeks, but you've rapidly become one of my favorite artists. Not just "on RUclips" but overall.

I love Shrek so much and I am so happy this exists.
pls sign my decorative swamp boulder
I love the discovery of these random signatures you two have plopped on each other's videos. It's phenomenal 😂
@@saucyblossom I’m so glad someone noticed the pattern 😂😂
A belated-please sign my royal frog corpse. 👑🐸🪦
OMG now I need to hear I Need A Hero but Tavern ED! THIS IS SO GOOD!
I like that you did the instrumental tunes and not just the popular songs included in the soundtrack. A lot of people forget that Shriek’s Soundtrack is more than just “All Star” and “Believer” (including me, lol 😆). So, thanks for this, Colm.
The entire video was amazing but I could listen to the first minute on loop and never get tired of it.
Shrek dvd menu vibes but better.
Very beautifully done!
This is a lot of fun. I enjoy the musical mashup of this. I don’t know how you made it work, but you always come through.
Every time I get a premiere notification I know I'm on my way from misery to happiness today
My thought exactly 🤜🤛
This was so good!!!! You did an excellent job👌
Also I didn't get a chance to comment on your other video, but I think your Hobbit name would be "colm Ginger chin" lol 😂
I would love to see an Irish style cover of "It is You" from Shrek. It would be so cool!
Honestly I think one of your best, that opening is just amazing
This has unlocked a new level of nostalgia that I didn't know existed
Wow, impressive! Must put on my playlist so I can hear more of Colm's phenomenal voice.
i’m surprised how amazing the non song music sounds. if i didn’t know better i would think it’s from one of the how to train your dragon movies or shows
Damn, I missed the premiere. Still, spectacular rendition!!! It sounds so amazing as tavern music :D
This is completely awesome tysm👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Bravo sir!!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I always need some Colm in my life
Just what I needed to relax after a long day. Love it.
Exactly it’s so peaceful
I hate that this slaps so much xD Thank you for this beautiful song
I would literally buy a full album of these lol. I keep coming back to listen to these cause I love it so much. (Also trolling my wife by blasting the All Star part when I need to wake her up)
The second I saw this listed I got so excited and by god it was even better than I hoped this is an absolute vibe. Great work Colm!!
Completely unironically, the opening soundtrack "Fairytale" is gorgeous
Always thought the Shrek music would do well as a Celtic-like cover, and you absolutely nailed it.
Damn...now I wanna re-watch Shrek and go back to Ireland. Beautiful as always, Colm!
I know nothing about music. Can't sing, can't play, can't even dance without someone calling the paramedics -- but I know what I like. This guy's stuff is great.
Colm R Mcguiness...you are a man with amazing talent and with boatloads if potential,I've been listening to your music for around 2 years now and I must say that you are one in a billion and I thank you for the music you make Original or not.
I'd like to see you tackle the shanty "Ballad of the Mer" :) also, great singing as always!
There's so many layers to this music, holy crap.
;)
pls pls pls upload this masterpiece on spotify! followed by part 2!
AWWWWW I JUST MISSED IT!! AND ITS SUCH A GOOD ONE
If your gonna do something frim Shrek 2, you gotta play and sing the songs Accidentlly In Love and I Need a Hero. That would be great to see!
Okay this was amazing. Absolute goosebumps my guy. ❤️🔥
Also… wouldn’t be mad if you ever did a “Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron but make it Irish” 🥺🤣
Last night I thought it was time to rewatch the films and now I don't know if I can be more motivated!
This song has just premiered, what a thing of beauty...
This a smiley convinced me he should do a Hallelujah Irish Tavern Music cover
As a D&D GM, full versions of these would be amazing for ambient tavern music
Thanks for this. It'll be perfect to sneak into DND in sessions and see if my party notices
And now I'm playing Shrek in my head while I'm at work, I like it.
Equally Awesome and Beautiful as usual.
This is some of the most relaxing music I've heard since I listened to Thomas Olivers Jurassic Park Weissenborn Instrumental.
Oooh you should do something for Halloween! :)
Lovely music as always, it's so fun with your Irish variants.
When the flute started at the beginning I got goosebumps. This is so good! Part 2 please!!
