Hello! Just wanted to update that this song is now available in the following platforms: Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/545kLWS5VxeA7THdr1eIyO?si=jVIXv4ZuQvyrVtpmk0CF2w Deezer: www.deezer.com/album/165545142?

Well there are alot of people finding out they had Ancestors that lived another great plague, during that time, and many of those people probably LARP and do Renaissance Faires, most likely millennials and younger, and some getting into Tarot and Fantasy. Or really anything from back then to cope with the Modern Day Plague. So we don't go into hysteria like our family did.
I'm a noble girl In a noble world Silken Habit Soft as rabbits. If thou touch me there Best thou do beware My father's nation Claims yours as compensation!
I can see somthing like that in future books: Barcode Medievalism(noun)- Popular music trend starting in late 20's. It's defining characteristic is recreation of songs that were popular in those times by using only instruments that sounded somewhat medieval.

Greetings, fair Barbara Good morrow, Kenneth . Wishes thee join me in my carriage? Certainly, Kenneth Enter! . I am a dolly child, in a dolly world (medieval English had no distinction between female or male children) Life in fabric, 'tis fantastic Thou can brush me hair, change garments on a dare Imagination, life's thine own creation . Fare thee, Barbara, let us rejoice . I am a dolly child, in a dolly world Life in fabric, 'tis fantastic Thou can brush me hair, change garments on a dare Imagination, life's thine own creation . I am a fair-haired wench, in a fantasy world (wench seems to cover both "bimbo" and "girl" in this sense) Dress me up, maketh me talk, I am thine puppet (as puppets and dolls were two different things back then, a doll would never talk) . Thou'st mine doll, as dice roll, thee feel fairness and fame One kiss here, one touch there, in thine bedroll . Thee can touch, thee can play I can stay forever thine
Indeed. I've listened to other songs in this style,but they didn't convince me enough,so I stopped them before the end,but with this one...I've finished it and I'm re-listening.
This made me realize that the actual melody for Barbie Girl is... rather pretty??? Like you don't think about it with the original cause it's about freaking Barbie so it's just funny. But this made me appreciate the actual rhythm and composition. Thank you for that, learned something I probably never would have without this 😂
My seven year old self is visibly angry because the whole Barbie thing made this song better but my sixteen year old self was blushing so hard after finally being able to understand the lyrics. My current self doesn't care but just jam to the music
I spend years mocking these pop songs, and then they make a medieval cover and it sounds lile something I would dance to in a fantasy world. I'm questioning myself...
Aqua. This brings back to the early autumn of 1110. All the kids sang this song when they played. The church tried to forbid them, but their appreciation for this song ran too deep.
@@t.miranda176 I can only think of one band more cartoonish than Aqua, and they are actually called the Cartoons. (They were really famous for a time - but a bit of a one-hit wonder)
Ah yes Princess Barbra (of Dreamtopia) has inspired many a tune I am sure as her blond hair shines gold in the sunlight, her blue eyes rival that of any saphire, her kindness and bravery know no limits and her dancing skills are unparalleled even amongst her many fine sisters. She is betrothed to Duke Kenneth (of Himbo Valley). A good looking chap by all accounts and certainly got a brave and kind heart though he hasn't much in the way of brains, still he and the princess definitely seem fond of one another so no doubt they'll make a fine and happy pair.
Can you imagine what we're doing? We're listening to a medieval version of 'I'm a barbie girl' and making up stories where this song could fit. And the worst part is we actually love it.
Imagine altering dimensions in space, travelling back in time, writing this out as your own original medieval piece, and having others play it at a festival. Would it go down in history as yours? Would Aqua be accused of using your music? Edit: A lot of people are mixing Shakespearean English with Old English from the Middle Ages. The lyrics to this would have been in Anglo Saxon. Something similar to this... "Hîe Barbara! Hîe Kenneth!! Fremian êow wanspêdwæstmian êac bâm râd? Gêse Kenneth! Hoppian hwon." That would have been closer to the language used during the Medieval period.
If I became a time traveler trapped in the past I would become a bard for a living, troll the spacetime continuum with these and do everything in my power to somehow preserve my efforts to be discovered today.
I love listening to 16th century Venetian lute compositions. I absolutely love the sound of plucked string instruments. Im glad i found all these medieval covers!
I'm a barden's girl, in a barden's world. harp and fabric, it's fantastic! meet me on a fair, sing with me everywhere. thine incantation, is mine inspiration.
I really wanna know how these are done, it's something I'd like to get into, I love remixing music, especially into different styles and interesting instruments
These bard style covers are so amazing... like .. how are these that good... like I don't even get it but I have had this and the hips don't lie one on repeat for like a hour now
I just imagine a bunch of knights running down the road, shields a-clackin', armor a-rattlin', the king on a horse leading them as they all yell sing "im a barbie girl in a barbie world!"
GAME DEVS, HEAR ME OUT... I really want a fantasy video game with solely existing songs remade in medieval style for the track. This song in particular should be the title screen theme. I really, really, really, really, really, REALLY and truly do want this to happen. PLEASE!

Well, after all there is a plague out there, commoners has more free time.

The original melody actually fits the music style
Indeed. I've listened to other songs in this style,but they didn't convince me enough,so I stopped them before the end,but with this one...I've finished it and I'm re-listening.
Exactly
It's so peaceful now.
True.
(But I can't unhear the lyrics)
Not really.
Interesting little tidbit: There are probably more fans of medieval music NOW then there were when it came out.
This....... i-
There have always been a lot of fans of Medieval Metal, though..
Simon Lucy but now due to the internet medieval music reaches to areas all over the world. When back then it was in only certain places of europe
@@omarbernall Also, there are more human beings in general.
population growth is also a thing

Yeah it really is a lovely melody and this arrangement allows that to come through aha

Oh yeah, I knew that beforehand when I was a kid completely unaware of the lyrics 😂
Their music, the rythm of the songs was sooo japanese i think.
Yea Aqua made some pretty amazing music over the years
I’ve fallen into a rabbit hole of medieval covers but this one hits different
Literally same
A another 2yrs later I've fallen through into a parallel universe & stuck here, looks like I'm very late to the feast!
Are we going through another period Renaissance?
i mean.... we are in the middle of a plague
@@buringplumbranches yup. Just gotta overthrow the Catholic Church aka the government first.
When Roman empire fell, dark ages began in Europe. That's where we are going. Renaissance came many centuries later.
I would love it!
Yes.
I'm a fairy girl
In medieval world
Blood and castles
Men with muscles XD
Lol xd..
Nice
*enter insufferable nerdy guy*
Actually, men today are on average much more muscular than men back then
😂
Top!!
The fact that medieval covers are getting popular really has me wandering whats going on. Is feudal system going to be the new hot trend?
Basically.
quarantine has gotten to us all
I mean we already brought back the plague.
God I hope so, I could listen to this all day!
Plague
I'm pissing myself this actually sounds so damn good
For real
🗿
Right? Who knew
Yess
The year 2020 and everyone is listening to medieval music
Gen Z has great taste
Well, they had plague, we have corona..
@@jasmindahl7541 PRECISELY!!😂😂😂
I love it.
History tends to repeat itself so... jokes aside this sh slaps
This whole channel is a gem.
good shit. i'll come back in 5 days when it has millions of views.
Medieval genre taking over
I'm a little late but i'm right with you! :DD
At first glance I read that as "good hit" without the S, but now Captain America is disappointed, if you know what I mean.
It's been 5 days u prick
Edit: I jest I jest
A little stoned right now
It's 7 months now
It reached the first million
me and the girls vibing at the village well:
Lol
This is actually pretty fitting for a medieval song lmao
Ah Lady Barbie, wed to Duke Kenneth at 17. Beautiful story, how he commissioned this song as a wedding gift... and my what a harlot she was!
From my travels, I came across a Tarven with shark singing, singing the melodies of unknown yet with utmost elegance
A fine addition to my collection of tavernwave bops.
I expected the medieval cover to be a bit slower, but this speed still works pretty well actually
...first I learn that Bardcore is a thing, and now you tell me about Tavernwave. I am loving this!! Thanks!
Imagine being a Barbie girl in medieval time....!
Probably burned at the stake for Witchcraft.....

i caught your comment JUST as the song got to that part... felt epic
I sang this song to impress the baker's girl but the princess took me to her palace instead.

Play this at my funeral
Me too, and i`m an old bloke!
Do you come?

Play this at my funeral or I won’t be there
This one and "Hips Don't Lie" are the standouts ... well done stantough

i like this better than the original. it is less cartoonish.
Yeah it’s been refined; it’s always been a pretty melody.
Its way cleaner than the original
The original is purposefully cartoonish.

ok but this is legit a banger
In 500 years they'll be listening to their contemporary music played in a "pre-covidian" style
With their silly masks still on cause the threat is still there and shit or maybe they forgot why they wore it in the first place.
"Greetings fair Barbra" , "good morrow Kenneth" . "Wishest thee join me in my carriage?" . *cough cough* "I have the plague Kenneth"
This is surprisingly beautiful...
Time to add it to the the playlist
Can you imagine what we're doing? We're listening to a medieval version of 'I'm a barbie girl' and making up stories where this song could fit. And the worst part is we actually love it.
I like the melody and not the lyrics, then the lyrics went from annoying to contagious lol
This is exactly what my soul needed today. 💗
Melody and the beats are so relaxing and pleasing!
Random medieval man: “Scarlet are you witch? “
Scarlet: “no I am a Barbie girl”
Pure Solid GOLD
I can’t get enough of these medieval covers, they’re sublime!

Like Johnny B Goode in Back to the Future!
Whaaat! So beautiful and funny! Thanks so much.

This is quality. I've started seeing quite a few lazy bardcore remixes feeling very "midi" in style. This sounds very nuanced.

I love how the melody sounds in this style! It sounds really good😱
This could have been the number one song in a medieval top ten chart. "Aquatica - Young Lady Barbarella"
Imagine time traveling to 1365 in France at a castle for a feast, after so many songs this plays on the balcony, and they all wink at you
Absolutely stunning.
This is incredible, my favourite one yet. It retains all the fun of the original and adds a real sense of calm and whimsy
This sounds strangely good and I don't how to feel anymore
This is really making me smile

ah how I remembereth me listening to this in me own childhood, the years passeth by too fast.
This was a very popular during medieval times when everyone gathered around Barbie-Q parties.
This cover turned out awesome. It's my favourite!
I just want to compliment your talent. This is pure genious
This is the turning point. Once you've watched just one of these videos, your feed will never go back to normal. We are all bardie girls now
This made me feel like I’m a person from the medieval times who is rich and beautiful...

I remember when this came out and Barbara got hanged for being a witch for it whilst kenneth was burned for being a warlock
Was Barbara not made with misty witchcraft from the very black blood of the earth?
