The Court Jester (Cover) 【Sanguine】

- Another year I've lived on this planet, though I'm not sure I've evolved into a jester quite yet... Still, I knew this was the one I wanted to do for the occasion! ;o)
To think it's been three years since my first post! And goodness, how far we've come. I do regret that I haven't been able to post nearly as frequently as I used to, though that's what comes with the process of making my way into professional entertainment.
No matter what I end up doing or how long it takes to get there, I completely intend to keep making these covers whenever possible. Music is what I love, and I best express my love through singing! I'll always be your local singing and voice-acting clown, even when I disappear into the void for some time. :o)
Aaand many thanks to my best friend Byland for the beautiful art!
✵ Dance and go mad, my lovely fools! :o) ✵

Funny thing is, actual Court Jesters were paid pretty well. One Jester was given a whole swath of his king's land for doing a fart joke that the king liked.
Why did that make me laugh
welp high risk high reward cus u may accidentally insult the wrong ppl
I wanna be a court jester
@@Solo_man69the whole point of a. Kurt jester was to point out a king’s flaws, and it was actually seen as a great self dishonor to kill your jester.
@@huggystoriesbr7998 Because the jester was so good
"Not all thorns come with a rose"
The whole song is great, but this line is pure chills.
Frrr
The high-pitched, yet joyfully malicious voice really fits the Jester’s chaotic personality.
Frr
Lyrics
I am the jester, my job's to entertain
And it seems that soon enough it too will be my job to reign
Over all that you see, over all that you know
As the king is slowly dying, any moment he could go
Yes the king is slowly dying, any moment he will go
Oh! Sweet memories, come rushing back to me
as I trace my fingers on these haggard walls within your keep
though my exile still stands, I heard my duty call to me
because I am the court jester, I've grown tired of my sleep
after all, I am the jester, and I've tired of my sleep
What good is a crown if the brow it sits on is that of a dead man?
I'll wear my cap and painted smile with pride, my trusty baton in my hand
and you will see me, sire, I'll make my way back to you
you cannot stop me sire, your time is up, I see right through you
Though resolute you may pretend to be inside your walls
The people soon will realize that your feeble body can't forestall
The inevitable end that we all will one day meet
You are human, you are dying, yes I know it's bittersweet
But you knew this day would come, and you can't borrow steal or cheat
Yes, your maker gave you time, but you've run out, and soon you'll meet
I was awoken by some nibbling in my brain
A single thought, just like a knot, a stone,
a weight I can't explain
That sat there pulling me to consciousness
and waking soon I found
Myself entrenched in ancient earth,
with roots and vines my arms were bound
And in this post-hibernal state my mind
was filled with clouds of doubt
Were these my memories? Or something else?
and soon I felt the urge to get out
Tearing, ripping, painful as it was
Vines and leaves gave way easy just because
All that's left in this world is decay;
Soon I knew what caused me to awake
With a newfound memory after rest
I felt something bubbling in my chest
Soon I felt myself losing control
Peals of laughter rang into the distance from my soul
I cannot recognize a single thing in front of me
The world as I knew it now is gone, is this reality?
Absurd and nonsensical, fantastical and daft
All that is left to do is sit right down and laugh
Hee-hee-hee!
Oh this world that I left you in
Has been tainted by your sin
And as such I have now taken it upon myself
To reinstate the reign of laughter and in health I will return
Oh I am making my way back, I will return
Soon the people will remember the reason why they burn
And the fires in their might will start to turn
Pointing fists and shouting out with no more reason for concern
Soon you will see! The world will turn upon its head!
Just you hope that you can see it 'fore you're dead!
Foolish king, you sit in empty meaning on your throne
But in my time away, you've ended up alone
Oh, all the power in the world could never save you now
as the time at which your curtain's called draws nearer,
get ready to take your bow
The age of reason is now drawing to a close!
And now I, the mere court jester, will his majesty depose
I will tip the gilded throne, in me the people will repose
because I am the court jester, not all thorns come with a rose
After all, I am the jester, and this future I propose:
let the fool, let me, the jester, bring the olden tales to close
let the fool, let me, the jester, a new saga now compose
Respect to you bud
Tysm!
BEEN LOOKING FOR AN ACTUAL HUMAN COVER OF THIS SONG❤❤❤❤❤ genuinely incredible please become immortal
Who says I'm not already? ;o)
@@SanguinetheClown :D
@@SanguinetheClown I envy your bravery-
@@SanguinetheClownI mean, you are still alive. There is no proof you can die, yet
This EXACT thing. I cannot believe how good the cover is, you are amazing!
So I was just looking for covers of this song and then I see this. Being tired, I went "eh why not, let's see if it's any good". I am so glad that my tired brain did because this is quite literally the BEST cover of this song I've ever heard! Very well done, and you've earned a subscription!
YES SIR THIS IS BEST
I would like to point out that your comment now has 666 likes spooky
This is fantastic! Thank you for sharing your art with the world.
Thank you so much! It's an honour! :o) 💖
Something I love about this cover is how soft your voice on the opening line sounds before seamlessly solidifying on the next one and onwards… It gives a gentle and yet whimsical quality to the song and it just jives really really well
Can we all agree that her voice is absolutely amazing?
I get really attached to the original versions of songs and that makes it hard for me sometimes to fully appreciate remixes or covers. Especially this song, which I adore so much to the point of inspiring me to create a whole character based on it.
That context in mind: Your cover does this song great justice and I'm thrilled at how you captured the spirit of the original. Props.
The original ones are usually the best
Saved under my Jevil and Jester trio playlist
- how many times have you listened to it?
me: yes
Fr
I think im officially obsessed. When i first heard the origin I loved it and I normally don't like the sound of vocaloids. but it was so catchy and the animatic attached was perfect. So I looked for a human cover and found yours. I think I've listened to this over 30 times now and I found this song yesterday. I have to stop myself from putting it on repeat when in the car so I don't annoy my family. Your voice is so perfect and I've listened to other covers but yours just encapulates the right vibe.
did you watch the one with the green background?
@@vyshaakhp6542 yep
I love how slowly more unhinged you sound as you go
Happy birthday Sanguine! It’s already been a full year of awesomeness and singing together. Can’t believe we’ve known each other for only a year. It feels like forever ago! Can’t wait to continue to work with you as both project members and friends! ❤🎉
You're the best, Luna, thanks so much! It really does feel like more than a year. To another year of friendship and project shenanigans! :oD 💖💖💖
Alright, this is pretty damn good! It’s not perfect but still good! I think the best line from this cover (at least the one I think is most well executed) has got to be “In my time away, you’ve ended up alone!” Like, in the OG song, it was meant to be sadistic mocking, like, this ain’t a fool playing out his part, this is legitimate sadistic mocking. Here, however the line is ramped up to eleven, with it starting kinda “calm,” like most of the song, then when it gets to “you’ve ended up alone,” the jester starts to yell, to shout in maniacal GLEE! To the king! it’s not just sadistic, this is one of the most intelligent people in the kingdom feeling maniacal and sadistic glee over that fact, and it hits hard! So, yeah, hope you enjoyed my mini-essay, and bravo to you, sir/miss!
You are a godsend, this song deserved a human cover since it's creation, thank you so much!
I'm forever associating this cover with one of my OCs
I found this cover a few days ago and it inspired me to make one of my favourite writing concepts from the past few years. I've listened to the original a couple times as well, but the fact that your version has much clearer lyrics is really nice and makes me partial to yours. Good song, mate!
Oh my gosh, I adore this absolutely, this is everything to me, exactly what I've been wanting, a wonderful cover by *human*, with a lovely voice, so thank you 💖
oh and um, as a transfem without a single regret i don't know what all you're goin through in your journey, but im glad you're finding yourself and continue to make wonderful covers and put your heart and soul into them 💞💗💖
I found this cover last night and I may have had it looping for a good bit now. It's genuinely so good and the best cover I've heard of this song!! Thanks so much for making it and keep being awesome
YESSS!! I've been waiting so long for a cover of this! Your performance oozes with character, I absolutely the personality that shines through in this! You hit all the notes splendidly too, and recreated some of those wonderfully odd, subtle shifts and translated them to traditional vocals! Brilliant!
The voice is so smooth and fits with the jester perfectly, good job!
OMG that laugh at 2:56! I already loved the mocking laughter in the original, but this is *easily* 200% better.
the "see" at the start was an eargasm
You did a great job matching the vocals of the original but with a human voice! It honestly seems like it'd be a tough task to make some parts go smooth, but you managed to do it!
Your voice fits the song perfectly.
Great work.
Can I play your cover during an encounter for my D&D campaign?
I have a villain who has been using an instrumental of the original song as their leitmotif. I would REALLY like to play your version to represent the character singing during one of their schemes. Your rendition is amazing and would fit their energy.
Absolutely! I love D&D, so to represent a character in a campaign is honestly an honour, haha. Thank you for asking first, and best of luck with the session!
@@SanguinetheClown tThank you! Have a great day.
The session this will be used in is awhile out, but when it happens I'll let you know how it went :3
DO HOW DID IT GO!!!!!
I NEED TO KNOW!
@@selkiara1272 I will not rest until I know
Hi. I love this song, and I really am happy to hear a good human cover of this. You've got a good voice for a replacement for Fukase and are IMMEDIATELY more understandable. Thanks for uploading this. It's great!!!
WOOOOOOO FINALLY A NEW COVER FOR THIS SONG!! 💟💟💟💟 Your voice is so cool too!! 2:53 the laughter here- holy cow 😯✨✨ Also thank you for filling my jester obsession up more💟💟
This is one of the best covers of any song. Kudos, Sanguine.
On another note, does anyone know of any other unique ballads like this one? Story writing is taken to another level when you have an outline in song form
Noooo i gained a obsession over this song i watched this one and the original both 10 times one one day
Omg just found this song yesterday but yours is my favorite version!!! Wow you’re so talented thank you! ❤
LITERALLY perfect, thank you so much for making this!! I had trouble understanding the original lyrics, and this makes them crystal clear!
It sounds so good! :oD For sure my favorite human cover of this song
No but like why is ur voice so majestic???
Such an addicting music to listen to, please accept all the praises from the work you put into. 👍
ahhh the brainrot
your voice sounds just like a certain jester character so i love this cover
Guys, I think I just broke my replay button due to how GREAT this cover is! It's like as if I've just struck diamond!
omggggg I love this voice!!! I LOVE IT!!! SO GOOD!!!! AND THAT LAUGH!!! ABSOLUTELY MIND SHATTERING!!!!!
THIS IS BETTER THEN THE ACTUAL SONG FR
This is without a doubt my favorite cover of this song! Good work!
Not your voice having what I like to call ‘the crispy edge’ which is so fitting for a semi-maniac character like a jester
I like to imagine that this is part of the performance the harlequins put on for the fractured Aeldari and the king is Slaanesh
I liked the song but couldn't understand Luke half the middle bits. Your cover is crystal clear making the song even better. So I really enjoyed it thank you.
I've listened to a few of your covers already and you're literally so talented and I love your voice omg
new favorite singer. no question.
I will not lie I never understood half of the words in this song so yeah I really like this one thanks a lot for making it
I've been listening to this cover on loop!! Love it so much! ❤ you did an amazing job
My love jesters ❤❤
I JUST FOUND THIS AND IT SCRATCHES MY BRAIN SO GOOD
Was a bop 4 months ago is still a bop now, you got a cool voice!
I am so glad this randomly showed up in my recommended
This song is so hypnotising.
YOU ARE SO UNDERRATED THIS IS LIKE THE BEST COVER OF THIS SONG
Such a wonderful cover!
As someone who feels a strong kinship with the story of the song, I have extremely high expectations for a cover it.
*You madam, have delivered apon those expectations and surpassed them.*
This is the BEST cover of Court Jester I’ve seen ❤❤❤
Man I also wanna make a cover of this song someday! Me and my best friend love this song but I couldn't show it to people who can't understand vocaloid! Thank you!
This is the best!! I’ve been playing this on loop since I found it :)
The sheer EMOTION in every line
This. This is the cover I’ve been waiting for.
This is really good. I still prefer the original as it's just oddly unsettling but damn is this cover good and now i have two versions of the same song in my downloads
It's sad it can't be on Spotify becous it would be plaguarism
Your voice delivers this song so well that this is my favorite cover of the song!!
YOO THIS COVER IS SOOOOO GOOD!!💙💙
Dang I wish I could listen to it on other music platforms, but either way I'll be listening to this on repeat! Its magnificent!
Such a well done cover! Powerful singing and excellent production throughout !! :D
Your voice is scratch my brain in the right way, also that harmony tho jajgshaasaddfdda, i love it so much!! 💙💙💙
Dang- this is awesome! Keep up the good work my guy!
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG
I love it ive been looking for an actual cover of this song forever
My question were their any jesters in real life that was able to steal a throne of a country back in the Medieval times
i should think so, they were trusted advisors to the monarch so there were likely some examples of the jester either staging a coup, although it'd have to be a minor land like a dutchy or something, you cant just steal the title of high king or something, or the monarch leaving the jester as their heir, likely due to not having any children. the jester would probably have to be minor nobility though, he'd be seen as illegitimate if he was just a commoner
@@Ember_Trans_CatThere were also likely cases of the Jester ruling from behind the King using the crown as a puppet.
Best cover I've ever heard
Beautiful voice my dude🙌
Your voice is absolutely perfect for this song, holy hell. This is an amazing cover
Yo I’m in love with your vocals 😭💕
This is actually a brilliant song about class consciousness and Anarchist revolution
Is it bad that I relate to this song 😅
Nope

First of all this cover is a banger, and second, holy shit so fitting for the Black Lord of Alagadda!
