I literally can't understand why every fantasy gaming company has not reached out to you to sing in every one of their video games. Your voice is even more perfect than the original artist. Can you cover "Daughter of the Sea" from World of Warcraft?! I would die. DIE.
@@Hildegardvonblingin It's a good one. Jaina Proudmoore's voice artist sings it. It's really good - some weird syllabic agogic accents but it's my favorite song from the lore. (even though I'm a horde player for life) Thanks for the reply! You're the best - I play your video all the time in my music classroom. My kids love you and Whitney's Holdin' Out For A Hero video!
Oeh that's a good one yeah. I don't even play WoW but that one is in my increasingly eccentric liked playlist. I also adore Enchanters and Fall of the Magister from the Dragon Age Inquisition soundtrack.
oh please, please, PLEASE cover "Daughter of the Sea". The video is here on youtube! It's from Battle for Azeroth, when Jaina makes her way home to Kul'tiras!@@Hildegardvonblingin
it's just so crazy to me that we have an actual time travelling woman posting RUclips covers in the twenty first century. you're so skilled and precise with your work, I love it!
It warms my heart that Larian is sponsoring not just content that directly showcases their product - they're encouraging and supporting inspiration in music and any other forms of art that have been touched by their hard work, and that enriches everyone. I don't know what the right answer is to fix a lot of our problems nowadays, but this is a start. Hildebrand, thank you for your perfect voice!
@@SahilP2648 exactly my thought...I was in character creation for...well... I don't want to say that... And because of that, I had to look up her YT account, just to find this "cover" :P
@@eddiehillergrand8882 the tune is, yes. it plays in the background a lot, especialy in cutscenes. had no idea what it was called, but every time i see a video, i ususaly hear this. they should 100% reach out to Hildegard and get her to add this! its perfect, a true love song. (and it wont make the squirrels turn psycho lol)
Not many people have played this one. The video came out on the exact time of the game's release on PC. Granted, it's been in early access for 3 years, but a lot of people have been holding off on it to get the full experience.
@@APPR3NTIC3 BG1&2 cannot really be compared to BG3 IMO. That's like saying strawberries are "leaps and bounds compared to" blueberries. It's way too different and more close to Divinity games rather than the classic Baldur's Gate games.
I just want to say that my 6 month old boy loves this song and especially your voice covering this song. When he's fussy all I have to do is play him your cover and he immediately calms down. Please, please, please cover Song of Balduran next as he loves that one too. 🙏♥
One of my favorite parts of this song is that it continually builds when you're building your character - so after about an hour or so of customizing and indecision, I heard this and became completely enamored by it.
@@sebaseba6710 That sucks man. Do you not have an ethernet cable laying about? I was on 1.7mbps this morning wireless, but ethernet (along with unplugging my broadband modem for a few mins to reset it) has brought me up to 220+ Mbps.
I went down by the river this evening, I could hear the water flowing through the stones and in the splashes I could have sworn I heard the most beautiful and crystalline voice. Must've been daydreaming again. Thank you.
Thank you so much, I hope you keep the joy in music as you improve too! So easy for it to become work if you let it, but it should be something we love. ♥️
@@Hildegardvonblingin It is! For the moment I'm still tinkering, but I'm making progress with each song. I still find it hard to listen back to what I've produced, but I'm really enjoying coming up with new ideas.
I love it! Right now I'm waiting for the release of the game in my country (in a few minutes) and thanks to your cover the wait is less long. Thank you!
Never heard this song before. The musical arrangement is haunting. The lyrics, voice, and harp weave and fade in and out of the background sounds. Only part of each are heard. The effect mirrors the songs meaning - to grasp and enjoy now what you have. Beautiful.
@@Hildegardvonblingin I get the impression that I might have stumbled onto your real name. I get the impression that you aren’t looking to advertise that so: If you have another RUclips channel, then literally the only short you ever posted is what made the connection. And if I am correct in this, it would mean that you’re from San Diego. (That’s literally the vaguest thing I could think of that wouldn’t lead an internet sleuth back to you)
So here we are :) Downloading together. Thank you for the amazing performance Lady Hildegard! And thank you Larian for all the escapism that the game will surely provide. I really need it in these times.
Amazing time putting all this together for everyone to enjoy a chilling music experience ty Hildegard and Larian for putting up a lovely masterpiece to all of us to enjoy.
Such a beautiful voice and such a harmonious arrangement. I keep coming back to your older songs and I always rush to listen to your new ones everytime you post them ☺
I've listened to several other renditions of this and none come close to how well you sing this! Bravo, I literally get chills when I listen to this. Phenomenal pitch and range
Both Larian and Borislav Slavov delivered truly epic experience. As old time Bg1 and bg2 fan, I am happy to see legacy carried in such epic fashion. Oh and thanks to Hildegard for great cover!🎤
If you liked to cover this song, you should definitely do a cover of the Tiefling song the tiefling bard is trying to play in the grove. When i heard that rendition, I almost cried. I guarantee if I heard yours, I would sob 😭✋️ thanks for another GREAT upload, i hope someday your voice is utilized someday in a fantasy video game as others have described ❤❤
Thank you so much for this beautiful performance to the world, Hildegard! I'm getting a chill running up my spine from the sheer beauty of it. Respect and love!
A sponsor? Awesome! I'm unfamiliar with the original, but your version is spectacular, of course. ❤ Now I wonder whether I should find the original for comparison. And I'll see if BG3 is something I would play. To Steam!
Oh it's really quite promising, if you're into tactical CRPGs and/or D&D, no need for prior experience with the prequels; and if you take your time during character creation, the original you will listen to plenty :)
@@FarhadHakimov thank you for your detailed comment, that's very kind of you! Unfortunately it doesn't look like something I would play, but my brother-in-law probably would. And he knows what I like to play, so I'll ask him about it and maybe gift him - his birthday is coming up. 😊
Even if you've no prior experience with d&d like me, BG3 is a very accessible game and a great time with friends providing you get people who can cooperate, I'm having a great time with it. Worth every penny.
@@DavidWasTakn thank you for the review! I have played D&D - although it's been a hot minute - and had a blast. I'm not sure how well I do in pc co-op games but I'll consider it. 🙂
I'm simply an enjoyer of talented musician who has good voice and passion. I click the video as soon as I see a Hildegard notification albeit I have no idea about the main topic.
It is always such a pleasure to hear your angelic singing paired with amazing musical accompaniment and lyrics! It is also such a pleasant surprise to see an update! Thank you so much!
This game will forever be in my heart in mind. As I play it again after a hiatus this song is always stuck in my head... so grateful to have come across this cover, beautiful!!!
So wonderful to have my birthday blessed with an upload by our Queen. Lovely work as always, will definitely be adding it to this evening's event playlist 💖
It's not like I needed any more promotion for this game, but still... THIS is brilliant! Larian had the most creative and engaging promotion campain, and all the same can be said about their games.
When I heard this playing in the game the first time, I actually thought it was Floor Jansen singing for some reason, which btw is probably the biggest compliment I can give... Great song!
Amazing, it took me an hour to create my character in Baldurs Gate 3, all the while my ears serenaded by this beautiful voice. I would love to hear you doing a cover for a song from the Witcher 3, it's called Priscilla's song.
Absolutely loving how many singers Larian seems to have sponsored ❤ Great marketing while giving back to the community with wonderful artistic expressions and paying creators ❤️

As always !

Thank you so much for saying that. 🥹🥰

*All rise for the return of our beloved "Queen of Bardcore".*
I feel Bardcore!
Always Bardcore!
is it still a '-core' song if this is the song as originally intended?
Greetings M'Lady!

Not many people have played this one. The video came out on the exact time of the game's release on PC.
Granted, it's been in early access for 3 years, but a lot of people have been holding off on it to get the full experience.
I didn't much like Baldur's Gate 1, but the instrumental music was really good.
Its time my friend 🤝

Thank you! It was really fun to remake it. 😋
Yaaaaaaas! Even Hildegard is on the BG hype train 🚂
Edit: Absolutely angelic voice as always! 😍
She’s so talented !

That’s just the sweetest thing, thank you to you and your little one! 🥰
"cause you and I are everywhere" is such an amazing line. It puts a lovely little bow on the song for me.
I will probably listen to this 100 times just waiting for the install to finish
i'm screaming, actually. i've been on the edge of my seat for this game and for you to drop this awesome song just is the highlight of the drop.
Thank you so much! I hope you have fun playing!
If you're not screaming, "GO FOR THE EYES, BOO! GO FOR THE EYES! EEEEEYYYAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!", are you even a BG fan?
MINSC WILL LEAD WITH BLADE AND BOOT...Boo will take care of the details.@@BryceKatz
One of my favorite parts of this song is that it continually builds when you're building your character - so after about an hour or so of customizing and indecision, I heard this and became completely enamored by it.
I spent so much time customizing my Tav the song really does draw you in and make you forget about the movement of time
Nice! She dropped this right as the game was released, so we can listen to it while waiting for it to download.
My current speed is 3 Mbps...
I'll listen to this song for I don't know how long lol

I wish you swift internet today! 🙏

What a perfect start to a perfect game.
Thank you for this new gem ! You really are one of those musicians who push me to surpass myself in order to be up to par.

Absolutely stunning 😍
Videogame music is highly underrated. Gorgeous, just like your voice. Just like a bell! Keep up the outstanding work!!!!❤❤❤
Bg3 is an absolute masterpiece, worthy of its name. And the music is of equal quality.
You are the only singer that reduces me to a blubbering mess. Your voice is out of this world, simply amazing.
🐟
Ever since I first heard this song its melody has haunted me. Now I've got this great version to haunt me as well!
HUZZAH! Tis a good morrow indeed for our lady hath blessed mine ears with new music! I thank thee for this gift mine fair lady.
IN A VAN! DOWN BY THE RIVER!
It lives rent free in my head.
So here we are :) Downloading together. Thank you for the amazing performance Lady Hildegard! And thank you Larian for all the escapism that the game will surely provide. I really need it in these times.

Absolutely breathtaking. Goosebumps and chills all throughout. So perfect I want it to replace the in-game version
OMG!!! Thank you so much!!! I am waiting right now to till my download for BG3 is complete. Your version of the song is my favorite so far
Your version is more thoughtful, where as the original is more impactful. Amazing as always.
I really wish I could play this game on release. Played BG1 and 2 back in the day...
2 of my fav things in the world… bg3 and von Blingin
Oh wow :) impressed. Bows to You!
Published on release day! Nice job
This song has been stuck in my head for weeks nowl, but I dont even want it to stop! Good job on the cover.

So this is the voice that gives me goosebumps every time i start up BG3. I've finally found it
HOW did I not discover this sooner? Two absolute favourites combined!
This is truly magical. A shared escape from the innocence-destroying nature of the world we live in.
Im amazed by how accurate this cover is, from the instrumental to the voice, truly a masterpiece of a cover!
This is so mesmerizing ❤️ I absolutely love this
