Here is a pretty good metal cover version of the Zak McKracken theme by MASTER BOOT RECORD: Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders.
This is one of my favourite covers (I think itās also quite well known):

I like this Monkey Island Theme:

Iāve listened to it 5 times and I still donāt understand it. Must be a very thick Scottish accent or something.
Itās Swiss German 
Itās easier once you know itās German (assuming someone understands German).
Thatās simple and amazing at the same time!
Unfortunatly, understanding German doesnāt help me too much 
This is Swiss German after all, which differs a lot from most dialects spoken in Germany. Ususally, when I drive through Switzerland, I switch to a french radio station, because, even though Iām German, thatās easier to understand for me
But nevertheless i like the dialect. itās just difficult to understand for someone not from the region. So if anyone here has learned German only in school, please donāt get frustrated by the video

When hearing it the first time the only clue for me it may be German was when she said āLos!ā (Go!) at the end. I didnāt understand anything before (the first time at least).
Does anybody know professional musicians that remastered old music? can be any adventure game, not just Lucasfilm.
This is what I hear at work sometimes:

Donāt worry, living in Zurich doesnāt help either 
Iāve been living more than six years there and Iām still struggling with their dialect.
I understood something like āyou never know when such videos should start, isnāt it?ā but the second sentence is still going over my head. It doesnāt seem to be a Zurich accent, so I canāt do anything about it any Swiss Germans here to help?
Loose translation may be something like:
"You never know how to begin such a video, right? Itās awkward, just sitting thereā¦ go!
At least thatās what Iāve heard.
Oh, thereās a translation in the video 
well, it was a nice Swiss German exercise for me. I still donāt understand the ājust sitting thereā part, but it was fun to try.
Edit: I see she made a tutorial video where she explains how to play the guitar part, all in Swiss German (with English subtitles). Swiss German and Monkey Island music, this might be the best video ever.
Ohh, yeah, sometimes itās a good idea to click on āshow moreā.
She says āhockste daā (hocken: slang for āto sitā)

One complex and majestic

Not Scottish for sure, but if it were, she must be saying āDiggināā
This guitar+violin rendition of the MI theme is also pretty nice
