Toss a Bitcoin to your Witcher! Italian synth duo cover iconic song

An Italian synthwave band has recorded a crypto-inspired cover of the beloved ‘Toss A Coin To Your Witcher’ song from hit Netflix show The Witcher.

‘TOSS A bit-COIN TO YOUR WITCHER’ by the Melodicka Bros is a cyberpunk/synthwave rendition of the incredibly catchy tune famously sung by Geralt of Rivia’s bard/mate/annoyance Jaskier, played by Brit actor and singer Joey Batey.

The fantasy show, based on a series of books by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski, has been a huge success, partially driven by the popularity of The Witcher video games.

The song is sung by Jaskier to drum up business for the titular Witcher, played by Justice League star Henry Cavill, a warrior who kills terrifying monsters for money.

It is so popular it has inspired a slew of covers, including from Russian choirs, rappers, dance artists, violists, trumpeters, bagpipe players, and numerous heavy metal interpretations.

A message posted with the YouTube video states: “Hey there bros! Enough with the metal covers.

“Hope you enjoy our synthwave, cyberpunk, electronic twist on Toss A Coin To Your Witcher from the new series on Netflix.

“This is not what we usually do, from next week we’ll be back with our regular schedule. See you soon!”

The video was a hit with viewers, with nearly 127,000 views on YouTube at time of publication.

One fan commented: “Whoever dislikes such an epic masterpiece should suffer in the dungeon of the great tomb of Nazarick… just saying.”

Another added: “I’ll just toss a like and a comment to help the algorithm so you get your coins.”
