As I said in the previous video, this week's cover is a revisit of a cover I did fairly recently. I was excited to see Bury the Light so high on the list, but I had absolutely no idea how to tackle it differently from my first time. The natural approach for me is to just go lower with tuning, but that meant Double Drop D, or 8-string dropped an octave below a normal 6-string drop D. It's not the first time I've played this low, but I was really determined to make it as clean and clear as possible when it came to pitch stability.
To achieve this, I finally picked up Mike Stringer's Mixwave plugin (not sponsored) knowing that Spiritbox plays in Drop F#, it had to be good for this and oh boy was it. I landed on a tone I liked almost instantly and it gave me the inspiration to really lean on Spiritbox influence for this cover as they've been the most influential band on me in the past few years. I took a lot of arrangement ideas from Jaded, with a ton of mix tricks from Circle With Me. I even ended up mixing in the double drop D guitar ANOTHER octave down as well as the bass to make the guitars sound lower than perhaps anything I've ever heard before, let alone mixed myself. It was an incredible challenge in the production phase of this cover.
My last cover of this song was met with a lot of criticism because of my voice. It was tough on me because as a lot of you know, I have rather low self-esteem with my singing and I've been really trying to work to be okay with it, but I took a very growly approach with this then and I could tell by the comments, some people did not like it. Having Lollia take this one is exciting for me because we're flipping the gender of the singer and it really sounds unique and different from the original in a cool way. The comments sections of my videos are usually unnecissarily over-critical anytime I have a vocalist, and I'm sure it won't be different this time. However, I really think we landed on something really cool here, and worrying about pleasing everyone may have prevented me from doing this project like this.
This was reuploaded because the initial video got a large amount of criticism about the vocal mix. The vocals have been boosted in this and I hope it's easier to hear more intricities in Lollia's performance. We took a very different approach with the style of this song, and while it won't be for everyone, I those who enjoy it can appreciate the insane work that went into this.
Bury the Light in 2022 was the last cover I did before breaking my thumb which triggered a domino effect of many really tough trials in my life. I'm hoping that I can bookend that with this truly monsterous revisit to that cover. All that being said, the final cover of your favorite video game songs of all time is just a week away...
And dare is say it, it's going to be even bigger than this one.

holy heck this was perfect, who knew Bury The Light would have so much potential with a female vocalist
love the crunchier style of the guitars too
why is this song so GOOD
The original BtL exudes raw power while this one has a hauntingly almost somber tone which is really cool. I also kinda like that having a female vocalist adds an extra little link to Nero's theme. Like a little familial bond in their themes. I love stuff like that. I didn't get to hear the previous upload of this, but I quite like this version. Jules never seems to miss. Also, Merry Christmas brother
Jules over here fighting for his life on those guitars... Meanwhile Lollia just bing chilling
Man, awesome! No need to have low self esteem about your voice, while your guitar is freaking awesome!! As well as your creativity and personal touch when making your versions.
Hearing a female take on the vocals was extremely refreshing, and the instrumentals, especially the guitar, were very well done and breathed new life into a song I’ve listened to a thousand times.
I'm sorry to hear about the criticism of the last one. I know firsthand that it is very common to focus on the negative comments, but please don't ignore all the people saying that you sound amazing, cause you really do!
Both of you motivated my life❤
I honestly loved both versions, great job Jules!
once again super epic! You and Lolia are match made in heaven. Also it makes you twice as endurant as you were a year ago. I love the version with your vocals and it's ok if somebody did not, I'm sorry to hear that there were a lot of negative feedback, I personally enjoy your singing very much! Keep up a good work, brother! MMmmotivation!
Love to see you guys going out to show support to other musicians like this. 🩵🖤
Now I'm motivated!
Yeah guys. Both of U Did it Very Well and I'm amazed the Baby Girl can change her Voice Tones in every part of the Song.
Great Job, U have my Respect.
This is by far my favorite version of this song, i think you nailed the sound in every way and lollia sings this song perfectly. I listen to this song multiple times a day cause i love it so much. Also there is nothing wrong with your vocals, your my go to for most music.
Can't help but feel like your version of the instrumental part after the first verse ( 1:20 ) was intensely Symphony Of The Night-esque; fantastic job on your arrangement!
I love that jules was able to be extremely respectful of his fanbase while standing his ground. Regardless of what you thought of the OG mix, if you are gonna be a bitch about it (which a good amount weren’t) he doesn’t owe you shit. On top of that the bad few doesn’t deserve to bury the people just trying to be constructive. Covers were meant to be diff from the OG and if you don’t like it just listen to the OG
That intro is going to always be one of the hardest, harshest experiences in musical history.
Sick dude! a different approach to a classic banger. Well done both of you!
That was awesome 😮❤
This cover is incredible! Awesome job you two!!!
As someone who really dislikes when Singers go far out of their Range, I can only say I am absolutely amazed and very, very pleased by the choices you guys made in the Vocals here. Lollia was sticking to what felt comfy for her, and where she had the most oomph and it shows. Her Voice really focuses on "pinpointing" rather than flatout endless brutality, if that makes Sense. That is how I hear it, anyway. The Mix is IMO pretty damn good, and I had no Problems with it in any capacity. I think you guys really nailed a special tone with this one, that is vastly different from the other Covers of this. Way to go. Very much enjoying it. :)
The previous version was really good, this version has improved with the vocals more clearly defined, really well done on this man its fantastic
You guys put a lot of effort in this and it really shows! Love the spin you guys put on some details!
Loved your stuff since your Jet Force covers ages ago, loved everything since and love it all now. Great cover as always
Lollia! Her FFXIV cover songs are incredible! If anyone was gonna crush Bury the Light's vocals, it was gonna be her.
NOW I'M M O T I V A T I O N
So epic, love it 🤘 Virgil would approve
Guitar sounds different and I damn like it! Thanks for your art!
You both did an excellent job! You also did great singing in the previous cover :)
Amazing❤
What a fantastic cover.
A very fitting shirt for you Jules, as Lollia reminds of Courtney LePlante of Spiritbox! Lollia has an absolutely killer voice. So soft but powerful. You both killed it 🤘
Having just spent several hours trying to find the guitar tone I wanted for a song I was writing, I'm in awe at how great the different guitar tracks came out in this piece. Wonderful ear.
Didn't catch the previous upload in time to see any of the criticism, but the guitar tone is fucking awesome.
Just came across this. Totally rockin bro. Screw the critics. Gonna listen to this for a killer workout tomorrow.
your vocals in the original were fantastic
Didn't catch yesterday's upload but I will say the vocals are fantastic. If it was boosting they needed I'm glad for this mix since it's perfect. And instrumentals are beautifully heavy!! 🤘🤘
Wow, I never expected Jules to cover Reptile. Great job!
Oh wait...
me at 7am:
"Now im motivated"
Kyrie's parents are killing it🔥🔥🔥
i don't usually leave comments on anything but i'm sorry to hear people were very harsh on the previous upload though i was also saddened a little bit about having a slightly hard time hearing my favorite youtube singer... so i just wanted to leave a comment to thank you jules for listening to feedback and acting on it! this cover is wonderful
Hey dude thanks for fixing the video you’re awesome Jules! Glad to see you take constructive criticism so well even with some people taking it a bit to far.
Like everything else from this channel, this just sounds so IN YOUR FACE EXCELLENT. Thanks for another banger! Vocals, guitar, everything! I thought you nailed the speechy bits really well too, which is deceptively difficult to get right. I didn't hear the original release, but Lollio came through really well in this mix and the effort to make this sound awesome really shows.
Jules and Lollia been eatin good
Said it on the first upload, and I'll say it here again: Y'all have done an amazing job on this cover. I love the first cover you did, and I think that this revisits it in a nice way to have both be worth listening to.
Much love for what y'all do!
Keep it up and don't let people get you down. You've got legit talent at this stuff, dude.
Would hear an entire album from both of you together!
Excellent work! 👏👏👏
6:24 I love Lollia's delivery of this part of the song. Having pop vocals, rather than metal vocals almost feels more ominous than the original
I don't know how to explain it or if it makes sense but the singer sounds like a witch cursing us to be eternally locked in combat with vergil
He was feelliinnngggg thiss omg.
I can't believe I still have to wait till next year for the #1 song
Those who hid behind their screens to backlash this remix the first time are not worthy of this devil’s power. This remix is truly the storm that is approaching.
Jesus Christ. If all Devil May Cry music is this good, I need to start playing these games like, yesterday. Phenomenal job, both of you!
It's all this good
I must not pay attention enough to the video cause damn that Arm tat is sick asf
Lollia's microphone is plugged in now. Nice cover :D
you should do a cover of he is that hero from the old larry boy cartoons
I didn't get to hear the one yesterday sadly, but this is a real banger!
I was blown away by this , you guys did an amazing job. Excited to see what #1 is
Personally I loved you branching out into singing. Keep plotting away at that singing voice, because the potential is awesome.
Having said that, Lollia puts out something massive as always. We're spoiled for choice when it comes to Bury The Light, but this one is up there.
I was literally just listening to her cover of Live and Learn with Richaad and wonder where she went lol, thank you for the cover
Fantastic work!
Amazing, everything of it
riffs are insane!
Now I'm a little MOTIVATED!!
Damn this cover is motivated
I like this.
Jules, I don't care what people think. The videos where you sing are such a welcome addition. I've been subbed to you for MANY years, and you've improved immensely! You wanna try new things to get out of your comfort zone? I say this, brother: You do you, and don't let the haters get to you! If what you produce makes YOU happy, then those of us that follow you to the end will love it just as much as you!
Grab your plastic chairs and your monsters everyone 😎
If you want them... you'll have to take them.
But you already knew that.
Getting motivated
Place your bets on what we’ll be seeing tomorrow, I’m guessing either Pokémon, Sonic, or Touhou
I was actually kinda bummed out when I found out that the original video was taken down. I was planning to give it a listen.
Either way, I like the tune. ^_^ Lollia's vocals are exquisite. Same goes for yours. I also like the percussion, and... the other instrument playing during the quiet parts. Sounds like a piano.
Amazing collab
Ignore the stupid unwarranted criticism, the last version was perfectly fine. Some people needs to grow up.
I didn't quite enjoy the vibe of this song, but I gotta say that the mixing was very good. Just not the right vibe with the original. Keep up the good work, Jules. 👍
I feel like this is a hard song to cover because Victor Borba has insane singing abilities. Its like Linkin Park meets gospel. Which makes sense because he sings quite a few Christian metal songs along with Linkin Park covers.
The mix is much better! I can hear her vocals now
and she sounds great! good cover
This deserves more love!!!
ITS BACK
This is very good.
While listening to the original mix I made a mental comment on how the vocals were a little low but nearly low enough to leave an actual comment+I sent this cover to my friend that i barbomb with bury the light and he said he liked version of the song better then any other.
I didn't get to hear yesterdays, what was the difference?
The vocals were softer, and some people felt they were drowned out by the instruments. So he redid the mixing a bit.
Let's get this to number 1 on trending, if that's possible.
Does lollia have her own band or YT channel where she sings? I want to hear more of her!

Great cover.
MOTIVATION!!!!!
Well done.
Cover of the year?
👏👏👏👏👏
That's bullshit - I thought your voice was a very good fit for this song especially. Keep on singing. It's your music!
I really love this cover though. You're absolutely right - having Lollia instead gives a 2000s rock/metal vibe, it makes me think of Evernescance and Nightwish, two of my favourite metal bands with women as lead singers.
Edit: And there is the Jules solo! This makes it even more like those bands, I love it.
As someone else pointed out, this gives the song a connection with Devil Trigger which has vocals by Ali Edwards.
This is also one of the most challenging songs of all time, in my opinion - it has SO MUCH GOING ON. There is nobody in the world who is going to sound like Victor Borba, so everyone has to put their own spin on it, try their best to capture the spirit of the intensity. And maybe end up with something even better than the original - which could very well be what we have here.
The official anthem of white plastic chairs
Your voice sounds good both loud or soft.
I didnt even get a CHANCE to listen to the original version, but it sucks the feedback was apparently so toxic.
I'm proud to see that you took the high road and actually tried to improve it based on the criticism though even if you were already satisfied with the final product, a lesser man would've been like _"You know what screw you Im taking my ball and going home!"_
it takes a great deal of maturity and humility to endure such backlash on the chin, even if you don't owe anyone anything.
Stay awesome Jules! 😁
🔥
I'm sorry you received criticism about the vocal mixing yesterday, but this version sounds so incredible with her clearer vocals
You both rocked it!
I think that kind of criticism is helpful though, and I’m sure Jules agrees. He must’ve busted his ass all Boxing Day to pull this off
Incredible cover
Dope
I think Victor Borba's (the OG singer) vocals fits this song better, he has a much more powerful voice and he's really good with singing with distortion so I think his vocals really capture the vibe of the song.
(Don't get me wrong, I don't think your version was bad. But it's really hard to compete with Victor because he is talented AF)
Fuck what people say, re release the og, I want to see it
giving me some Kidneytheives vibes
I saw his community post, can someone give me a sparknotes of what the main criticism was? Do people just not like lollia or something? I’ve thought she’s p good for a while now. Like, I guess her style can sometimes be what some people would call cringy? Seems like some hate was thrown from what Jules wrote.
Just read the vid description. I love the style of this cover and jules has a very good unique voice, especially for stuff like this, I absolutely love his roar of the spark cover.
Ethereal ❤
Lollia is so hot!
This sounds awesome. Not a track I'm in any way familiar with, but you slayed it. Awesome overall sound, and the vocals from Lollia are superb. Wonder if those who criticised your vocal before can play guitar anywhere near your level?? Don't worry about your vocals with playing like you can pull off, not to mention your constantly amazing skills arranging these pieces. I'm sure with work, you'll get the vocals nailed too. Keep at it ✊
