For this track he was joined by fellow musician and YouTuber, Jonathan Young who we’ve also reviewed as well, and if you’re interested you can click here to check that out. Today, I’ll be reviewing his cover of ‘It’s Tough to Be a God’ from the Road to El Dorado soundtrack, which was released November 24th 2018.

‘It’s Tough to Be a God’ has phenomenal energy, the harsher guitars, horns and other elements really add a lot to the track. I’ll admit I got a little bit obsessed with this track for a couple of weeks, and I think it’s just that it just hammers you with intensity. And yet it doesn’t lose the fun and whimsy of the original track.
