This what I will be blasting when driving across the desert in search of robot parts to sell for bio implants.
What I'm blasting while I take out the Rebel Flagship in FTL
@Worm Driver Greater West Virginia.
Just make sure you dont pick up an old war robot with a drill penis.
Accurate.
Only if said desert is a war blasted future version of west Virginia
In the far future, in a technological dystopia, a group of sentimental young cyberpunks lament the loss of the natural world...
oh man it was deep
*near future
yep...a bit like what you might encounter on the outer fringes of an anime construct cityscape
@sujeto delta 101 what you are describing is called a dystopian future for a reason, it is largely undesirable and to be avoided at all cost.
Ted K was right. Industrial society must be destroyed
“What is he singing about, daddy?” “A place called West Virginia that used to exist somewhere, kind of like Atlantis.”
Yeah, except Atlantis was purely a metaphorical place invented to make the military might of Athens seem better and justify why they didn’t choose Poseidon as a patron god
This is how they would sing it in the game Cyberpunk 2077 if it were in it.
@@authorofone And somehow their artifacts and architecture were found among the ancient artifacts of the mayans.
Can you proof that west virginia exists? West virginia is a conspiracy made up by the government, like Bielefeld Always was.
@@astralten Bielefeld? What's that? ;)
"Git off mah property! Go on git!" Yelled Eustace, as he aimed his plasma shotgun at the robotic bankers.
While he's trying to keep the cyborg revenuers away from his mars shine still
Oh damn, the shotgun jammed again. Stupid NeoTokyo parts failed.
Eustace was a World War 4 vet, and was not going to let them take his class 3 rural domicile without a fight
Omg i laughed out loud to this
Meanwhile his cyberdog, Courage, sees the bankers as brain stealing alien droids from the Outer Rim toward Jupiter.
This sounds like if Depeche Mode and Muse had a love child. I'm here for it.
That is such a good way to describe it and it's absolutely my new favorite genre.
So true!
Literally was thinking it sounded like it had a depeche mode influence.
THANK YOU! I was thinking the exact same thing!
Yes! The vocal line sounds like it's almost straight from Enjoy the Silence and I was struggling to place it.
This is the weirdest Muse song I've ever heard.
Big "Simulation Theeory" vibes
LMAO
If you think this is the weirdest Muse song I have something that'll make this normal in comparison lol. Look up "DJ Cummerbund - Bullfrogs and Hurricanes"
Matt Bellamy had ghostwritten this
LMAO
I'm in for an entire series of covers in this style...
Same

As someone who actually enjoys John Denver's music and remembers hearing his original on the radio back in the day ... this was frakking awesome. Well done.
Darin Conard fracking hurt world air
This is the sort of Cover that adds to the value of a song. Not just a repeat, but an evolution of sorts. Even if it's not something everyone will like, it still widens the audience for a wonderful piece of music.
I think John would be fine with this version.
agreed man
So say we all!
ah my favourite genre : "wtf"
ain't that the truth
I'm guessing this is what happens when country singers drop a couple a tabs of acid before the performance.
@@tbobbobs7606 Nah that's just johnny Cash haha.
I mean it is just outrun with extra steps
my favorite one will still be dogs
This is basically if MUSE covered this song, and I'm living for it
Julia Alexandre im not gonna lie I went looking for someone else who thought this was muse sounding. 👌🏼
Literally sounded exactly like Dark Side at the beginning
Came here to say this!
A Muse collab with Vangelis.
Bruh that’s what I thought too 😂😂 Muse is the G.O.A.T.
This feels like it was made after West Virginia fought against a corporate controlled government and because of their rebellion were nuked off the map, and this song is a call to remember the evil that happened, as well as a call to arms to fight.
I mean, you are technically right.
Go look up the "battle of blair mountain" episodes of Behind The Bastards podcast, you literally described a real thing that happened in the 20's
@@TheRealKoolguy007 Welp...thanks for the shadowrun campaign idea...now I just need to learn German so that I can actually read the 5th edition handbook in a format that makes sense.

OK, Liking that even more.

@@MelodickaBrosWest Virginian chiming in. thanks bros, this makes me happy
The un-official theme song of the Tesla pickup truck.
AMAZING COUNTRY AND SCI FI LOOOOOL
Yes!
i can see that happening
This made me chuckle.
Don't ruin this song's image by associating it with that thing
The original is like a path back to a nice, peaceful life.
This feels like a longing for a life that can never come back.
This is great; it sounds like the longing of a futuristic dystopian society for the natural, simple ways of the past. Country roads, take us home.
Me before video starts: "I have a bad feeling I'm gonna like this"

@@jxeyfarrugia the song country roads was made like 40 years ago the f*** are you talking about.
Country roads released a 1971 almost 50 years ago. That's even before gaming as a whole
AngelintheCLoud bro it’s just a joke.
@@jxeyfarrugia bro if that's your idea of a joke Is wonder what your definition of a comment is. Ya clown 🤣
I’ll be honest this isn’t really my kind of music I just clicked on it out of morbid curiosity but I’m in love with this cover liked and subscribed
+1
Morbid?
If Tesla doesn’t use this in a cybertruck ad at some point, we’ll know for certain they have no idea what they’re doing.
Daniel Gomez dude they already dont know what they’re doing.
They know what they are doing.
They didn't spend money on making ads.
They used the internet for advertising.
knowing Elon that probably is their actual marketing strategy
Tesla doesn't do ads.
DocWolph Are jokes new for you? Because this is one
I'm not even listening to this as a meme, this is just good.
I agree 100 %
This makes me desperately want a cyberpunk version of Ghost Riders in the Sky.
Oh HELL yes.
😗another epic classic = yes!!
Lets makd this Happen!!!
I legit got chills reading this
Someone get this user a recording deal!!!

So THIS is the market the tesla truck was marketed to... Interesting.
Severely underrated comment.
Please make more of these ‘classic song but it’s CYBERPUNK’, it’s amazing
I can imagine Nomads outside of the megacities listening to this song.
Christopher Cole „Grandpa, what is mountain?“
I love how they put a small *"wtf"* at the end of the title.
I totally missed that wow
Yeah, that one got me
I mean like... wtf
Its like they looked at each other and said "Are we really about to put this on TH-cam? "
As a native West Virginian, I've heard many variations of my beloved (unofficia) state song. This is, by far, the most unique, to date, I've heard. As a music fan of everything from Delta Blues to Metal (I've heard this song in all those genres) I applaud your uniqueness and keeping the want and longing these lyrics invoke in those of us whom have spent long periods of time away from this great Mountain State!
Imagine if this were to become the dominant sound of the 20’s
I'd be all about that
Even though I aint really a big fan of this kind of music Id be happy with that, better than Grime and Emo crap...
@@ElohimJim What the hell is Grime? Is that like Grunge?

“Almost heaven. That’s just the problem, ain’t it? You strive for constant perfection, buy into everything they try to sell you, and before you know it, the worlds gone mad for MegaCorp. The synths keep rolling off the assembly line, the workers keep rolling onto the streets, and the big money comes in for our corporate overlords. All this marvellous technology promised by all these neon coated companies... We dreamt the next decade would be a utopia. A heaven.
It almost was, Billy.
It almost was.
Shit that was deep man.
Reading this while listening to the song made it 100x more dramatic and damn near perfect

Damn...
God damn.
This dude's voice is gorgeous, and whomever is rocking the music between genres are fucking amazing.

@@dunamoose3446 damn Earthers, their music has always been better. Can't account for a thousand years of culture
Sounds like a song straight off of Simulation Theory
Yeah Muse was a big inspiration for this one!
Yeah sound like "Algorithm" :D
The glasses especially, you almost look like an italian clone of Matt Bellamy
@@The_Dark_Unbroken U mean NIN Closer? :D
I was thinking the exact same thing. Kinda sounded like Algorithm there at the start
What? Melodicka Bros is evolving!
This cover has the same feeling of "What A Wonderful World" playing over war footage. Mockery of a broken promise..．
"that John Denver is full of shit"
Not a mockery of a broken promise, but a longing for something that is gone, do to the human failings of “progressivism.”
6:42 "We are not masters of music..." best joke I heard today. In my opinion, you DEFINITELY ARE. What you´re doing is completely awesome. xD
So glad to read this! Thank you so much

this is unironically amazing
This is what I am going to listen to in my ℂ𝕐𝔹𝔼ℝ𝕋ℝ𝕌ℂ𝕂
This to me makes the song make more sense. All techno n future singing about going back to the country
Kristopher Hollon. I completely agree. I love the original but looking at how “advanced” the world is becoming with tech, I see this version resonating a little more, which is a bit sad. I take it as a warning, to not lose our humanity. It’s very well done.
I just noticed the line "Life is old there. Older than the trees" is actually correct. The Appalachian Mts are the oldest Mts on Earth, and are older than trees. They're older than all terrestrial life, actually.
When he started to sing, it sounded a little bit like the chorus of Enjoy the Silence by Depeche Mode. ^^
Great cover and great idea, as always. :D
Exactly what I was thinking.
That's what it was
Thanks
Omg I was thinking the same!
True.
As a West Virginian this makes me deeply uncomfortable but I am kinda okay with it
Yo honestly me too. Its just- so o d d
This is what its like in East Virginia.
"... Deeply uncomfortable but kinda ok with it" that's like exactly how I feel
Like that first boner
Im approving this on behalf of West Virginians, its rad. I hope this song infects all genres
whoa why didnt i find this sooner awesome
i expected memes and goofyness
i didn't expect an actual good cover in a style i love
I didn't expect to find a genre that I now want to hear more of.
Now I want to ride my light cycle and fight someone in disc duel arena.
Or ride your light cycle through the desolate and burnt earth. You know one of those edgy feelings
Haha Tron reference.
John Denver reborn as a cyborg.
This is how a country jam session of Depeche Mode and Muse must sound like :O
"Depeche Mode" Country Roads cover.
Camryn Gibson my thoughts exactly
Exactly
Depeche Mode featuring Daft Punk
the most cybertruck song ever
when youre a trucker and you buy the new tesla cybertruck
Damn accurate af
Tesla also made a semi so that’d probably go better lol
This is my favorite comment by far.
Then your truck crashes and tesla won‘t dispose your battery^^
@@EsCaLaTioNXx that's riiiight!. Then you regret going off diesel fuel and it's attendant CO2 BENEFITS to plant life and the greening of the planet. BTW,if you're going to go electric, you should have went with Nicola Tesla's wireless power grid. It worked.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
I first listened to the Youre gonna go far kid cover and now here I am Binge listening to everything
Muse. This genre is called Muse. Notable examples: Muse.
Played on a MUSE, through a MUSE for MuseTube
I doubt Muse created a genre.
@@moose-mancer Music is the art of playing Muse.
Before, the word _music_ did not exist. 🤯
Totally a fact.
Sadly they codified it. They used 2b rock
Synthwave is what I’ve heard.
This should be the main theme of a futuristic dystopia show
I got you bro. I will make sure it happens.
District 12 of Panem, but it's Cyberpunk
I showed this to my cat...
Now he's in the other room...
Typical cat
honestly more representative of West Virginia than the original with all the mass industrialization and strip mining that has/is happening in WV.
Sam Hill When he started singing, I was like „Vows are spoken to be broken...“
Sad, but true. A lot of streams and rivers that used to be pure are now heavily polluted with the run-off from those mines. The air quality has gone, too.
Ok Boomer.

Man over a year of melodicka bros missed thanks to TH-cam's notifications... glad I could catch up. Again top shelf... just wow.
If I close my eyes, I only listen a Daft Punk cover ft Cardinal Copia
Just a bit of vocoder needed 👍
Yeah it kind of sounds like Tobias. Pretty much Tobias went into the Tron world.
Omg, I never thought of that until you pointed it out, lol
I love how this half of the century thinks the future is neon.
Danie F The 80s felt like they were the future and wore mass amounts of neon
Well when Cyberpunk was established they thought the future had neon. It's the future of an old time.
future may not be neon, but neon feels future.
Real future is white and green, and clean. Or everyone is dead. Idk. But fantasy cyberpunk is badass.
Danie F that's how aesthetics works
Absolutely splendid
Dark, haunting, beautiful, and expressive. Fantastic work
The guitar solo is straight up Muse influence.
Why do I feel they should be singing in german?
Because you can't tell that they're Italian.
LANDSTRASSEEEE BRING MICH NACH HAUS
Because that's the future I guess? XD
An einen Ort an den ich gehöre 🎶 But then it doesn’t make sense to sing he belongs to west virginia 😂

*Muse intensifies
Daft punk has entered the chat
In a time where country roads are a long-forgotten thing of the past.
This is 100 times more of a vibe than I expected it to be.
Oh, I'm actually loving this. I hope you revisit this genre again at least a few times, this is great.
Also when will you upload the rest of your work to Spotify? I feel like some of your stuff is missing?
I was like "the great algorithm strikes again, what is this gonna be..." had to sub immediately.

Who Else need those neon glasses?
Kanye already beat you to it fifteen years ago...

The people who disliked this song have not concept of diversity in their music. This is an extent arrangement. Even his voice is great.
They don't even broadcast the dislikes anymore. They say that the meek should inherit the earth, but the snowflakes did.
How presumptuous. Have you considered that people can dislike songs in genres they can enjoy? For instance because the artist uses sliding vocals and sings a song about nostalgia in a minor key
@@jamesbearden3468 You think "sings a song about nostalgia in a minor key" is a bad thing?
A song that includes the verse:
I hear her voice in the mornin' hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road, I get a feelin'
That I should've been home yesterday, yesterday
Yeah, maybe you don't quite get what the song is about ;)
Everyone's entitled to their opinions of course
Currently watching in West Virginia
Currently watching in West
Wales
Currently watching this in Russia
This literally sounds like enjoy the silence at some parts
Overall it has a strong depeche mode vibe
I'm also getting a huge dose of the Daft Punk Tron soundtrack.
and don't forget about Algorithm from Muse
And Radio Gaga by Queen
"Whats your favorite music?"
"Well... its complicated"
Such a well-envisioned take on the song. Refreshing and definitely worth multiple listens.
you have gone too far - John Denver is rolling over in his grave ... to hear this better
+sub
actually, John Denver was buried without his head because they never recovered it from the plane crash.
well it's somewhere
Why does this remind me of depeche mode, muse, and nine inch nails had a baby.
That's the type of song I gonna listen driving a Cybertruck, yup
Try doing all star- sad version
When you live in the Appalachians and work on developing applications.
Good job.

Fr tho, serious Dark Side vibes in that beginning
Barış Bingöl yes that’s exactly what I thought! Especially those songs but just simulation theory in general
Oh my god, this is perfect. The only country roads cover that I think is actually good!
Oh how I wish I could go back to those times.
Masterpiece! I can never unhear this, wow. The "Like a Prayer" breakdown is top, top tier.
When you're a good ol' country boy living in the Grid from Tron: Legacy.
“Country roads- muse cover”
Feck... that's actually good, i can't belive it!
You are truly amazing guys.
I still think the synth/drum beat sound at 00:19 is one of the greatest sonic inventions in human history! That sound just gets me so pumped to go drive my firebird through a neon city!
