Soren Madsen Gives Us One Of The Best “Nothing Else Matters” Cover Ever In Stunning Church Backdrop
Prepare to be blown away by a rendition of Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters” that will be etched in your mind forever. Performed by Soren Madsen, a Danish acoustic guitarist, this cover is a standout. Metallica, a legendary symbol in heavy metal history, has seen its songs covered countless times. Yet, Soren Madsen’s version of “Nothing Else Matters” outshines them all, offering a fresh take on the classic.
With over 20 million views and 536,000 likes on YouTube and counting, it’s clear that this cover has struck a chord. One commenter perfectly encapsulates the sentiment: “My dad and I will be dancing to this performance at my wedding. We were absolutely touched by the quality of the sound and how moving every note is. An absolutely beautiful rendition of one of our favorite songs.” “He played it like nothing else matters,” another humorously added.
Soren Madsen hails from Denmark and has captivated a global audience with his YouTube channel, boasting 278,000 subscribers. His ability to breathe new life into well-known tracks, coupled with his exceptional precision and technical skill, makes each performance feel unique and memorable. His version of “Nothing Else Matters” appeals to both Metallica aficionados and acoustic guitar enthusiasts alike.
The choice of Lystrup Church in Aarhus, Denmark, as the backdrop for this performance, enhances the experience. The 12th-century church provides not only a visually stunning setting but also contributes to the flawless acoustics, allowing Madsen’s guitar work to truly shine. Here’s his rendition of “Stairways To Heaven,” which in our opinion, is equally impressive.
From the moment he begins to play, Madsen captures the essence of the original with one hand while simultaneously making it his own using the other. His unique approach ensures that listeners experience the song in a new light, as if hearing it for the very first time, something only a piano virtuoso can do.
Kudos to Soren! For those interested in exploring more of his work, you can follow him on his YouTube channel or his official website.
