[DarrenLover1231]

Holy crap that was... WOW! It was so beautiful! You are so talented. I'm literally about to cry from how beautifully emotional that was! Omigod I can barely form words right now! Enough with my rambling! Well done. This has made my life complete <3

[margotcoqote]

This is amazing ! You're really talented.

[summermissmoo]

Never thought I'd say this but I personally think CeviHarp's 'The Muse' - Darren's. Darren is stunningly perfect but this is just, something else...

[me2drescue]

it's like i'm in heaven! <3 well done!

[nerdfightersftw]

This is just so... hauntingly beautiful. It makes me feel... different, somehow. Okay, I realize that I'm using a lot of ellipses, but that's how I feel! Speechless! I can totally understand Darren's reaction now. This is... this is something very special.

[MrsBlack282]

WOWWW...DATS LIKE!! AMAZING!! AWESOME...:D KEEP IT UP , SWEETHRT!! AND U GOT A RESPONSE FROM DARREN EVERETT CRISS HIMSELF..*SWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON* ;)

[musixvids4life1]

[96danger]

This is amazing! Thank you for posting this, people always seem to forget about the harp and it's beauty. This was extremely well done and you picked a magnificent song. It makes me want to learn how to play! But all kidding aside that was incredible! Astonishing! Jaw dropping!...I can go on :)

[mvh12390]

im going to play this at my wedding! this is amazingly beautiful!

[roseycloud]

This is so beautiful, it kind of reminds me of a music box.  You are very talented!

[MisSweeTooth]

[dayjonatika]

[XxMadAboutPotterxX]

This is so beautiful!

[glowNthedarkkid]

CeviHarp: the 4 people who disliked this video are just jealous that they could not make such beautiful music that it reduced darren to a speechless puddle of fangirl. congratulations! this is amazing, you are amazing. i can't wait to hear more of your covers! :)

[mobeenahmad93]

Finally! It took me 2 years to realize what this reminds me of,... it's a very Tim Burton-esque feel to the song. I'm totally in love w. this, I'm one of your biggest fans... Thank you :)

[somegirl973]

Amazing!

[AlchemyBeliever]

CeviHarp. You are amazing! I was led to this By Darren's Reaction. I had to see what caused his practicle loss of words. I am on the verge of tears that was so pretty! I wish I could play something that beautiful. How anyone could dislike I will never understand. I want to give you a giant hug, but I can't...so..virtual hug. and please keep playing. YOu make such amazing music. whether it's a cover or not.

[omfgthereisnoname]

@AlchemyBeliever People only dislike it because they're jealous! >.<

[opaavaa]

Beautiful. So this is what eargasm is like.

[drummergrl47]

[triplethreat0824]

You are amazing. I definitley now understand what Darren was talking about. You totally deserved a shoutout from the most supermegafoxyawesomehot man ever!

[hibimaosuki]

Got here by virtue of the amazing Darren Criss himself and now I am going to spend the rest of the day downloading all your covers, you amazingly talented woman.

[MariaHughes11]

Amazing. You deserved that response from Darren, his awe was so justified. You're incredibly talented!

[kfdcl]

Gave me chills.

[ilovepiepie4evah]

I am at lost for words all I can say is amazing, and their should be a new word to describe how amazing it is, I love it.

[EmilyIncorperated]

Wow, you totally deserved Darren's reaction to this!

[cmwebb67]

what i want to know is why anyone would dislike this!! thanks hermione!

[cmwebb67]

holy crap!! that was freakin amazing! and you didn't have sheet music! holy crap! and darren criss listened to it! OMG! freaking out right now!!!!

[ladylabyrinth1986]

This is sooooo beautiful, it made me want to cry...but in a good way!

Keep up the great work!

[caitlinn777]

this is so so beautiful!! i play harp too (though not nearly as well as you) and I was wondering, do you have sheet music for this? anyways, you're amazing, and this is beautiful!! :)

[CeviHarp]

@caitlinn777 I don't have sheet music for it. Like the rest of my covers, I did it by ear and didn't write it down, I'm so sorry! Thank you so much for your comment!

[mandys315]

oh my gosh did you flip out when u saw you got a video respnse from darren cris i would pronally scream and and jump around with glee and happiness for like 1 or 2 ( p.s did you see my attempted word play he he)

[JackSparrowILU]

This made me cry. <3 Because of a) it's so beautiful and b) I'm so jealous for that video response from Darren. Seriously, I'm like drowning right now.

[sadeyegirl]

It's a haunting, but very beautiful tone.

[manatee0524]

FANTASTICAL..........found this through DC's YouTube.....you deserve all the praise he has given you!!!! I don't know you but I am so proud of you for your interpretation of his work. Thank you for sharing your talent!!! <3!!!

[omjitsamy]

this is so beautiful.. kinda spooky. but i love it. nice job!

[everlasting9292]

This really is beautiful. I totes wanna hire you to like...play this at my wedding or something. It's a seriously great song, and you added a whole extra element of mystical, wonderful beauty to it.

[ILoveDarrenC]

@CeviHarp i also listen to it nonstop but could never figure something like that out :)

[ILoveDarrenC]

This is soooo beautiful how did you figure this out??

[CeviHarp]

@ILoveDarrenC Thank you so much!! Well it was mostly time, patience and listening to the original song for days with non stop, haha!

[BlackShadowMagicxx]

so, so, so, soooo beautiful, The Muse is one of my favourite songs ever, i was randomly searching through Darren's videos and i found this, so a huge thankyou to him, coz now THIS is one of my favourites too!! you're amazingly talented :) <3 xx

[jayjjgirl]

Really nice!! :)

[godhatesbaguettes]

This is beautiful. Darren wasn't exaggerating.

[katieo970]

Tjis is going on my ipod:) I will use it as a music box ;D

[justdance1357]

Every word that Darren said is true! This is a magnificent cover, it sounds so so beautiful!

[xNOFURx]

I was dead when I heard this beautiful melody. But I was a zombie when I saw the Darren's responce! OMG! :) You're so talented! You deserve this response, but you are lucky.

[alphalpha1974]

I love this! Thought you may also be interested in a trailer I found regarding a modern retelling of the Orpheus and Eurydice lovestory. Its simply called Orpheus and is on the movieextra webfest page or look up Nick Orpheus on youtube and there should be a link to take you to the trailer. I found it intriguing

[CeviHarp]

@alphalpha1974 Aw, I tried to watch it but it says that "the owner might have removed that entry" :/

[alphalpha1974]

@CeviHarp try typing in Nick Orpheus he has done a cover of The Muse too - Thanks AA

[bluwave818]

I want a music box of this song =v=

[EywaNgahuInt]

Wowza. I wanted to listen to just a couple seconds of this before going out... Then I zoned out. I love watching harp-players, and this just sounded so entrancing too. I have DC's version in another window, but I'm not familar with it yet; regardless, I'd like to say this version is somehow even more stunning that his. Thank you for posting this, it's amazing.

[MsHabtami]

That was beautiful.

[MsMeme2014]

Beautiful. also...this sounds like it would fit perfectly in the Harry Potter soundtrack.

[CeviHarp]

@MsMeme2014 I bled a few rainbows when I read this. Thanks!!

[tktalwar]

@CeviHarp Hey, just curious, how did you get Darren to see this? Was it coincidential, or did you message him somehow? You're so lucky! I'm extremely EXTREMELY jealous :P

[CeviHarp]

@tktalwar It was totally coincidential. I tweeted that I made a new cover so my friends could see it, and he saw it and made the video response. Never thought he was going to know about it!

[Chanelleml]

Wanna cry but its beautiful :D

[cheesepuffs90210]

I watched darrens reaction before this and I see why he was soooo happy. Your freakin AMAZING. Your so talented and made a beautiful song more beautiful. :)

[jessziax]

a beautiful cover of my favourite song posted on my birthday:)

[sadeyegirl]

I can honestly say I adore this. It's beautiful and...I'm speechless. Thank you.

ps. I feel so giddy right now

[chessnuts101]

This is so beautiful, yet so magical.

thank you for making life that extra bit more wonderful for me.

[CeviHarp]

@chessnuts101 Well, thank YOU for making my life extra bit more super-amazing for me :)

[gremlincrown1666]

oh my god! this frickin' amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

[sk8luv2222]

Gorgeous! I love the delicate balance of sweet and melancholy tones. Reminds me of a Spanish guitar

[crookshanks151]

I just realized that I listened to this forever ago before I even heard Darren's (or knew about him)! This is beautiful.. It sounds positively magical :)

[mushergirl]

This is the only video to ever get a video response from Darren himself. EVER.

Lucky bitch.

[CeviHarp]

@mushergirl I've been called that before...

[MrsBlack282]

@mushergirl TOTALLY! :D

[RaiaUchiha15]

Absolutely wonderful job! Even if it is different from the original, it is still amazing in its own way! Fantastic cover, and you are very very good at the harp! Keep being awesome, ok? <3

[tharcblack]

Hola! Utilicé tu preciosa cover como música de fondo para mi primer vídeo de youtube, espero que no te importe, (He puesto el credit dos veces^^)

[CeviHarp]

@tharcblack Aw! Gracias por avisar y por usarla!! :D

[disny344]

thats so beautiful!!! Great job

[TheHiguy1234]

Are we allowed to still yell at Herman for the four dislikes, or does the night troll only dislike Starkid videos?

[amouresttu]

@Beep12gurl hahaha :) that made me laugh for way longer than it should have

[XxXmIcH3lleXxX]

My god! Wonderful <3

I can imagine this being used for a music box :')

So beautiful!

[historyfreak17]

This truly is beautiful! Combines to things I love: harp and Darren Criss. Keep doing what you do!

[iinkwell]

Oh hell. o 3o

I love your version.

Would you mind if I used your music for a cover I'd like to do of The Muse?

/wouldn't want to use it and rearrange the lyrics & key if you're not comfortable with it/

[CeviHarp]

@iinkwell Sure, as long as you credit the original song and this cover, you can use it. And thanks for your comment!!

[janniechien]

its so hauntingly beautiful. YOU'RE SO LUCKY THAT DARREN ACTUALLY KNOWS YOU EXIST. you'd think he would know his future wife (me) by now.

[supercookiemonsters1]

@janniechien excuse me... but I believe Darren Freaking Criss is MY future husband, I understand this was a typo and a big mistake, so therefor I forgive you. Try not to let it happen again.

[janniechien]

@supercookiemonsters1 i say we take this outside. (JK, WE CAN BE POLYGAMISTS AND SHARE CUZ SHARING IS CARING.)

[supercookiemonsters1]

@janniechien Then it's settled! We share (: just be warned I don't like to share the things I love...

[supercookiemonsters1]

@janniechien Then it's settled! We share (: just be warned I don't like to share the things I love...

[Beep12gurl]

Four dislikes? Thanks Herman!

I absolutely love Darren's version of this song, but I can't believe how incredibly beautiful this is!! You are an amazing harpist and the fact that you were able to figure out how to play it without any sheet music is so amazing!!! You are unbelievably talented and I just wanted to tell you how impressed I was :D

[LaurokaPlay]

ommggg undestand why darren was O_O now... you're TOTALLY AWESOME!

[vampirechickd13]

This is so beautiful! I loved the original and I loved this one. Don't even have good enough words to describe it, simply beautiful!

[othlaholly1]

Youre so lucky you got a reply from Darren! I would dieee if he ever talked to me like that! A well deserved reply, I must add:) its lovely and beautiful beyond my comprehension!

[samtaro111]

Wow.

[zodiackhyrro]

So beautiful.....

[JossyMascaraa]

OMG, this is amazing! It's so beautiful!

[jaswer1]

who are the 4 idiots who disliked this beautiful piece of music

[jbfan1987]

This is just....so beautiful. There is nothing like the sound of a harp, to me. And then with The Muse...God it's just fantastic. I can't get enough.

[Superjelly101]

Absolutely beautiful!

[gatorfan0213]

no words are good enough to describe this. none

[accioWelleh]

This is amazing. Absolutely amazing.

[FunSunGrl]

EPIC! You are amazingly talented!!!!!

[gallifrey999]

This is beautiful. It sent chills down my spine.

[Warblerette007]

Wow, that was beautiful! You're very talented :)

[Warblerette007]

Wow, that was beautiful! You're very talented :)

[ringo89]

Wow...this is spectacular...its beautiful!

[Smmors14]

Please, never stop playing the harp, as long as you live. You, my friend, are the very definition of beautiful music. I can't get enough of this!! Really! I was already in love with this song, but you put it into a completely new perspective. I will probably never actually get around to learning harp, because I'm taking piano and guitar lessons first, but you are making me reconsider that. I seriously enjoyed this. You would be very popular with a few StarKids I know! Excellent, masterpiece:)

[horsegerbil]

I. Love. This. Song.

Darren's original version, and your cover both. <3

[BlackSkillzPay]

Omg this is such a beautiful song

[niqu95]

I just saw this the first time and I downloaded the mp3 and not I've been listening to this for 2 hours non-stop C: it's so beautiful, I've always wanted to play the harp but I never really got to try it out

[christyt153]

This is so amazingly beautiful...I keep returning back to listen to it again ;) Awesome job!

[PinkySweet19]

I am so, so in love with this. I listen to it at least three times a day. I love it as much as I love Darren's version, and that's saying something. He is flawless, and so is this. Do you perhaps by any chance have an mp3 download for this?

[CeviHarp]

@PinkySweet19 There's a link to download it for free in the description. And thank you very much for your lovely comment!

[PinkySweet19]

@CeviHarp Wow. I'm stupid. Didn't even think to look. And you are quite welcome. :)

[TheWorldJustHas2Know]

Breathtakingly beautiful.

[KezzieZeGooification]

thats.. just beautiful

[TheIrmaPena]

This is absolutely beautiful...

[Miatochan]

BTW...Te seguiré en Twitter...

[Miatochan]

La melodía original con su ritmo ya era espeluznantemente genial, pero tu le has dado un toque de cuento de hadas, de leyenda que se presta DEMASIADO bien (con las referencias a la mitología y todo lo demás en la canción)... Entonces no es sorpresa que Darren haya quedado pasmado. En serio, este cover es bellísimo... Me dieron ganas de dibujar algo! Será que puedo tener una grabación para tocarl esto en mi móvil todo el tiempo? El sonido es inspirador.

[HunniiBaybiie123]

Absolutely gorgeous!! I've never really taken much interest in listening to a harp before but that sounded so beautiful! Well done! <3

[gaminexi]

woooooooooooooooooow interpretas maravilloso! suena muy lindo :D

[monisonny]

CeviHarp, is this avalible for download for an mp3? It's just amazing, and I would love to play this as part of the procession at my wedding. I am not super familiar with contacting through youtube, is there a personal email that I can reach you at? Also, how cool is it that Darren saw and loved your cover!!

[CeviHarp]

@monisonny I sent you a private message!! Check your inbox ;)

[musiicmasterrr]

This is absolutely one of the most beautiful covers of anything that I have ever come across, and I thank you so much for taking the time to recreate this already amazing song into something magical and magnificent.

I watched Darren's response after watching this the first time (I'm listening to it again right now) and he hit it dead on; you are extraordinarily talented.

Simply put, you're marvelous in your craft. Please never stop playing. (:

[MaxRide714]

This adaptation is magical. That is all.

[noigirl]

wow now i know why angels are always depicted playing the harp =O well done darren criss directed me here, i thought he was joking about what he was saying at first i did'nt understand how he could find that much emotion in a youtube video , but now i understand well done!!!!

[VictorieJunkie]

The beauty of this made me tear up. I must have been such an honor for you to get a response from Darren, but HE too (which he clearly was) have all the reason to be grateful and proud of what you did here. It was amazing.

[Gbazizable]

this is now my ringtone ! and i don't answer just so i can hear the beautiful song more !

[tessinetly]

This is absolutely stunning. Almost otherworldly in it's haunting quality. Sheer genius. I can see why Darren was so touched by the way you "bent" this piece to fit your harp. Brilliant!!

[RomyArg30]

omg this si SOOOOO beautiful. Love it!

[kittykat2249]

Oh my.....I literally crying from the beauty of this! YOU, my dear, have a talent that some (such as me) can only dream of. Keep it up!!

Quite honestly, I had to pick up my jaw because my mind was blown. I am sooo subscribing! ='D
