Thank you for lending your ears! It was a rewarding challenge to write an original song for CK3: Legends of the Dead, and I'm looking forward to playing. Please use my link if you'd like to check it out! play.crusaderkings.com/hildegardvonblingin On the topic of legendary rulers, I think my favourite story would have to be the bitter feud between the Medieval Queens Fredegund and Brunhild. Do you have a favourite Medieval King or Queen?
So many to choose from. There are some well known favourites like Aethelflaed, Theophanu, Cnut, Matilda of Tuscany, Empress Matilda, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Philip Augustus and Frederick II. I’m quite interested in Henry the Fowler and Otto I at the moment, mostly because I’m doing a lot of reading about early medieval Germany.
I feel like the well known kings like Richard the Lionheart, Charlemagne, Wise King Cnut, Alfred the Great, James VI and I, and of course William the Conqueror have remained famous for good reason.
I was subscribed but somehow managed to miss this notification months ago, and then independently heard the song in game and made my way back here. That's how I know Hildegard Von Blingin' is good.
I KNEW IT WAS YOU! I saw that first trailer for Season 3 of CK3. "Isn't that Hildegaard von Blingin'?" Paradox did right by us all in understanding they needed you.
Oh wow - don't get me wrong, I love the bardcore versions of pop and comedy bits that you usually do, but to have your talent recognised for something else is just fantastic. I'm so, so pleased for you.
Maybe it's because the present day seems so crazy and uncertain, but listening to music like this feels so comforting in comparison. Putting death and violence into a longer, more historical context and remembering that they've always been a part of the human story; we can find meaning and identify with the emotions of people in the past suffering these same emotions as we do.
Is a Hildegard-LotR crossover something we need? how does your music tie into the LotR movies, Elvish or dwarven culture. What song would you remake?@@Hildegardvonblingin
Someone close to me just lost her two sons. I needed this to allow me to cry. Thank you lady for allowing me to cry. Merci madame de me permettre de pleurer quand c’est le temps des pleurs. Here is a French translation: Qui te pleurera Qui te lavera et t'enveloppera Montera au clocher Qui veillera ? Qui chantera ta louange Qui te craindra et te haïra Sauvera ton histoire Du sable mouvant ? Qui te sculptera Te moulera et te coulera Révélera ta forme De sa propre main droite ? Kyrie Eleison Kyrie Eleison Kyrie Eleison Kyrie Eleison
@@roxanelvgsch Ce que j’en comprends c’est que c’est un chant de deuil en trois actes : le premier couplet s’inquiète que le corps du défunt soit préparé, le second couplet s’inquiète que l’histoire du défunt soit racontée, le troisième couplet s’inquiète que l’image du défunt soit conservée. Edit: Le Kyrie est le quatrième acte, parce que ce qui reste sont les lamentations de ceux qui vivent.
What I understand is that it is a mourning song in three acts: the first verse worries about the body of the deceased to be prepared, the second verse worries about the story of the deceased to be told, and the third verse worries about the image of the deceased to be preserved. Edit: The Kyrie is the fourth act, because what remains is the lament of the living ones.
I CANT BELIEVE IT! I left a comment on the Chapter 3 trailer that came out like a month ago because I could of swore the 5 second clip they use was your voice! Nobody else seemed to agree and I thought I was insane! Beautiful song! Im so glad they chose you for this!
@@Hildegardvonblingin Oh please keep it up and compose more! You have been blessed with not one but two amazing talents, and I think you need to use them. We certainly need them both! 💗
It is Thursday 14 March. Why has this divine masterpiece only just popped up on my notifications..? 😢 Dearest Mistress Hildy 👑, I thank thee for thy exquisiteness of voice and song. The only fault, it was not long enough. Please, please, produce a cd of all your incredible works. Regards, Sophie an ordinary wench from Adelaide, Australia 🇦🇺 🍸🍸💚🩵💙
It's been years since I had full-body chills, but this very much had my hairs stand on end. A very beautiful if slightly haunting sounding melody. I prayeth thee Hildegard will continue having great success like this henceforth.
Man and I was just thinking how her voice would fit in the lord of the rings cosmos so well. I have been thinking that with every video I just can't help it it's so elven
Such a beautiful requiem. It perfectly captures the bittersweet fact of being remembered, for great or evil deeds. We can't decide how history will remember us, only how we live today.
Yes! I'm so glad more developers are realising and utilising your incredible talent, Hildegard! While I do not know of/ play this game, I loved bg3 and your incredible singing! I am so happy you are getting paid for your talent and passion! ❤🎉👏
Even one who doesn't know the game (I had to look it up) can feel this angelic creation strike straight to the soul. It's universal. I don't play CK3 but I do read history, and it seemed to me when I heard your voice that you were mourning not only the victims of the Great Mortality but of every plague that has ever beleaguered our world--every human being who has ever had to die knowing that no one will be alive to remember them. From every grieving heart...thank you.
Imagine sitting in your Great Hall, having a lush Banquet and this angellic Voice starts to enlighten the whole Room. No wonder they thought they were God's chosen Rulers of the World.
Girl I listened to all your bardcore remix throughout the covid era and i havent checked your channel in ages and have only knew now that you are in the DLC. That's amazing!
You work is always as beautiful as crystal goblets, and this one has the bonus of being absolutely haunting. I had chills! Thank you so much for sharing! (And Paradox for having the excellent taste to commission the work!)
I hope they keep reaching out to you because you got the talent their games need. Could probably do stuff for stellaris as well depending on dlc themes.
The CK3 soundtrack is beautiful, but as I was listening down the entire list of it, I thought of how this more recent addition was the most beautiful. And then, it popped up on the list, and I couldn't believe the fantastic-ness to see that YOU were the one who wrote and performed this exquisite piece! Such a great collaboration of Hildy von Blingen and CK3! Thank you! I'm so happy for you to have gotten to do this for the game.
Wtf, I'm so proud of you I remember when you had so few followers and new to the scene during COVID I think it was, perhaps a little before hand. Now your working with Paradox. Well done seeing this made me so happy, thank you!
Woh! Loving it. Oh yes! Album of original works and Hildegard works please :) The voice, oh the voice. As a lullaby sings a babe to sleep if I pass into the next realm listening to HvB I'll go in peace.
The collab to end all collabs! Simply a beautiful piece of music! What a moment in history to have this be part of crusader kings legend! Well done Hildegard 🎉
Wow. I didn't see this coming at all. So fitting. Absolutely gorgeously written. So fucking cool that you got to write something for the expansion. Holy shit that rules.
So great to see your skills and hard work recognized! The CK series is lucky to have you working for them :) I can’t wait for my rulers to perish to your voice!
Been listening to your songs gor a while. Glad your brilliance is being noticed out there, good for you and hope for even grander things to come from your career!
I'm a bit late to the party. Waited to try out the Legends of the Dead content once Roads to Power was released. Since last week I've been hearing this song in my playthroughs and I've been trying to find it (it's not listed in the soundtrack). Amazing work! It's both haunting and beautiful.
So beautiful, so solemn 😔 it touches my soul, makes me think of the people who came and went.... As I am laying down in my bed, recovering from surgery.
I love the success Hildegaard is enjoying, getting to lend her ethereal voice and songwriting to so many great projects. Long may this recognition continue!

Same, excited to hear the new song

@@Blindeyeseesfar And giants like The Venerable Bede remain obscure just because they weren't Kings.
Catherine de Valois absolutely fascinates me, but there's so little known about her. Still, to marry for love...
Thank you for the incredible music! Couldn't have asked for a better partner to collaborate with for this expansion.
Thanks again for trusting me with this! You were all a joy to work with.
this is such a cool collab/sponsorship, respect to both sides!
Great choice!
@@Hildegardvonblingin no way you actually made music for ck3
Collab with FAUN or SKALD when? 🙂
Relaxing beats to succumb to the plague to 💯💯💯
You go koi
yo haeste.. i mean the grand koi is here
How did you post this 3 days ago when the video was only released hours ago💀
@@robertsiems3808 It's part of his legend fabrication, don't think too much about it
Top tier comment right here.😂
I am a simple woman. I see a Hildegard Von Blingin' notification and I click. I've yet to be disappointed.
woman glory
I was subscribed but somehow managed to miss this notification months ago, and then independently heard the song in game and made my way back here. That's how I know Hildegard Von Blingin' is good.
I can't wait to lose my whole dynasty to plague
My condolences in advance.
this happened to me, sad sad day
@@cmystery4180
Plagues are the plague of this game 😉
Can't believe one of my favorite singers got to write a song for one of my favorite games!
I KNEW IT WAS YOU!
I saw that first trailer for Season 3 of CK3. "Isn't that Hildegaard von Blingin'?"
Paradox did right by us all in understanding they needed you.
Well spotted, you didn’t have much to go on in that first trailer!
@@Hildegardvonblingin YOU'RE SONG COVER feels a level above the rest I always seek that in gameplay
'Tis grand to hear thy voice so sweet and low
Upon a melody that soothes my soul
And takes my mind to legends long ago.
Thank you ever so much 🙏
@@Hildegardvonblingin You’re welcome.
Oh wow - don't get me wrong, I love the bardcore versions of pop and comedy bits that you usually do, but to have your talent recognised for something else is just fantastic. I'm so, so pleased for you.
I thought I recognised the vocals in the trailer! Awesome work, well done!
I’m so impressed that anyone could tell just from a short line! 🙏❤️
@@Hildegardvonblingin Your songs appear in my playlists so I do hear them quite often xD
@@Hildegardvonblingin You have a very distinctive voice! :-)
Originally this song only came up in CK3 when you hold a funeral, but now it pops up in the regular game with the Roads to Power update

Putting death and violence into a longer, more historical context and remembering that they've always been a part of the human story; we can find meaning and identify with the emotions of people in the past suffering these same emotions as we do.
You have the absolute perfect voice for this kind of music.
This is amazing! And a huge congratulations to you! 🥰 It's giving LOTR vibes with Enya and Annie Lennox! 🥹
Thank you! And well spotted, I definitely referenced all the songs created for LOTR while making this.
Is a Hildegard-LotR crossover something we need? how does your music tie into the LotR movies, Elvish or dwarven culture. What song would you remake?@@Hildegardvonblingin
This is what iw as thinking, reminds me of the stuff Eurielle puts out
@@Hildegardvonblingin In the Kyrie I also heard echoes of something a *lot* older: Tomas Luis de Victoria? Gesualdo? Whoever it was, I loved it.
I was going to say that it reminded of Boromir. And then I cried.
Never clicked on a notification so quickly lol! It's a good day when my ears are blessed with another Hildegard upload
May even consider buying the soundtrack now
Well, I know what song I am adding to my D&D playlist next
Dropped everything when the notification hit, and the sheer chills from this absolutely enveloped me.
This is beyond beautiful, thank you for this.
I appreciate your haste! Thank you 🙏

It’s so good I can’t even decide whether to gush over your voice or your breathtaking COMPOSITION SKILLS, oh my gosh.
In some ways the latter means much more to me because I’m still relatively new to composition, but thank you so much on both counts!

Holy smokes, Hildegard von Blingin doing music for a Crusader Kings game! Two of my favorite things combined!
If they ever make a Silmarillion movie…you were meant to be in the soundtrack. Absolutely Gorgeous.
Thank you so much, I would be so honoured. ❤️
Man and I was just thinking how her voice would fit in the lord of the rings cosmos so well. I have been thinking that with every video I just can't help it it's so elven

I heard a piece in the trailer and I instantly knew it was you, beatiful as always.
Will this be added to spotify?
A beautifully haunting melody and voice!
The part where you sing "Kyrie eleison" feels like a balm for the soul.
Pure perfection. So beautiful
I'm so glad I appreciated your music before. But now you're also part of Paradox with this music. Just thank you!
Incredible song❤. You had me at " who shall mourn thee "
Girl I listened to all your bardcore remix throughout the covid era and i havent checked your channel in ages and have only knew now that you are in the DLC. That's amazing!
I am so glad compnies are recognizing your talent and offering commissions. Well done.
You work is always as beautiful as crystal goblets, and this one has the bonus of being absolutely haunting. I had chills! Thank you so much for sharing! (And Paradox for having the excellent taste to commission the work!)
This is spectacular!! The tune, lyrics and feel are perfect! It has just the right balance of sadness and eeriness! VERY well done.
this one is absolutely going in the playlist once its out on spotify
Commenting and liking to tickle the algo, I hope more and more people get to witness your voice and artistry!
You really are a beautiful singer! I've no idea what Crusader Kings is, but this a gorgeous piece of music.. thanks!
I have just watched ever single video you’ve ever posted. Holy shit, holy shit, I’m obsessed
so grateful to you for adding FRESH music, with lyrics, to my dnd playlist!! this DM appreciates you :)
Always a delight whenever you upload.

Thank you! Absolutely, it felt like a perfect fit.
I am travelling today and I just heard this. It fills me with a great sense of calm and courage. It’s absolutely beautiful! Love it ❤
First Baldur's Gate, now this, it's so cool to see such collaborations ! I wish you many more in the future, your work is amazing ❤
I actually thought of this song after the French branch of my dynasty was whiped out by an outbreak of Chicken Pox, then an outbreak of Cow Pox.
Amazing collab between my fave simulator and medieval musician
I had to do a double take when I saw this! Who could have imagined a more perfect collaboration!
I am listening to this as the rains fall on such a grey day. Perfect
The collab to end all collabs!
Simply a beautiful piece of music! What a moment in history to have this be part of crusader kings legend! Well done Hildegard 🎉
OMG this is so absolutely gorgeous and incredibly moving! You have done it again!❤❤❤❤
I love these collaborations. It is nice to see people recognizing your talent ❤
Wow! It's honestly so inspiring seeing you get recognition from a game as big as Crusader Kings. Congrats! You earned it
Wow. I didn't see this coming at all. So fitting. Absolutely gorgeously written. So fucking cool that you got to write something for the expansion. Holy shit that rules.
As someone who uses your music when playing ck3 I'm so happy to see you working with them! amazing song as always!
Beautiful music as always! Congratulations on the opportunity to work with those developers; you knocked it out of the park!
Awesome, congratulations on getting this gig! I'm glad your work will reach a wider audience! The crusader king series is really good.
Beautiful voice that's calming my stressful morning.
So great to see your skills and hard work recognized! The CK series is lucky to have you working for them :) I can’t wait for my rulers to perish to your voice!
I still come back to this at random. Nothing can be described as hauntingly beautiful if it doesn't enter your thoughts unbidden from time to time
Been listening to your songs gor a while. Glad your brilliance is being noticed out there, good for you and hope for even grander things to come from your career!
Fav game and fav artist, how could I ever ask for more?
This is just gold. Bravo to the team for the expansion, but you are something else man. Good job
Hildegard really be von Blingin after this collab!! Glad to see you getting the recognition you deserve.
Crusader Kings and Hildegard Von Blingin. These are a few of my favorite things.

So beautiful, so solemn 😔 it touches my soul, makes me think of the people who came and went.... As I am laying down in my bed, recovering from surgery.
Thank you, I wish you a very swift recovery!
The serene song of a fair maiden, beauty is her voice, a magical melody of mythical mystery, shall be etched into the bedrock of history.
Chilled to the core. Amazing, not just audibly but lyrically as well!
Wow, perfect crossover!
I love the success Hildegaard is enjoying, getting to lend her ethereal voice and songwriting to so many great projects. Long may this recognition continue!
Thank you, that means the world to me! 🙏
Normally, my mind just blocks out the music in CK3 but when I heard this masterpiece, I got chills. Amazing work!
Very wonderful! I have been waiting centuries for some good music again.
This is wonderful. So glad to see you working on more game projects Hildy! 🙌
When I say this was the best possible way to start my day! Hauntingly beautiful, as always.
This is crazy! Congratulations on this accomplishment and the song is amazing as always!
Thank you so much for this collaboration. Absolutely beautiful as always 🥹
This is so beautiful. Hit me right in my medieval literature heart. I'll admit I was very damn close to tears
had no idea this was from you, loved hearing it in game!
Here from the Trailer, nice work!
Oh wow! Been following for a while and didnt expect that prestigious collab! Love CK3! Love the song! Congratulations!
Absolutely STUNNING. I haven't played the game, but I'll definitely be looking it up now. Well done!
This is so hauntingly beautiful and goes so much harder than an ambient background track for a video game has any right to. B R A V O !
I'm so proud of you!!! I love to see my faves collab!!
It's always a good moment when this starts playing during your ck3 run, beautiful song
This is really beautiful. Congrats on the collaboration.
What a banger. As much as I love the covers. I am glad people are using your talents to add lyrics to beautiful songs.
