The song "The Dragonborn Comes" from Bethesda Softworks' The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim has been the subject of many fan-made covers so far, but I think this new one warrants yet another visit to the well. As you'll learn almost as soon as you hit play, the sounds you'll hear are the work of one voice and one violin spread out over 120 overlapping tracks. Oh yeah.
The video that goes along with the music is... well... it's a little ridiculous. Someone definitely spent some cash on making this look good, but... I mean... look. There's a swordfight in which one of the combatants uses a violin bow as her weapon. Make of that what you will. It's fun though, and the music is great. It definitely brings a fresh arrangement to that familiar and oh-so-catchy tune.

This version sucks compared to Maluka's version. She has the voice of an Angel.

Very impressive! Except the song is just called 'Dragonborn'. Plus, how where they out in the wilderness for that long without being mauled by bears?

The synthesized sounds on the overdubs i truly enjoyed; the acting on the other hand was over dramatized, and not quite as enjoyable !
