"A Distant Sadness" - So Say We All: Battlestar Galactica Live
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 сер 2021
- Featuring a haunting vocal solo by Raya Yarbrough, I wrote "A Distant Sadness" for the shocking third season premiere of #BattlestarGalactica. The intense story inspired me to write lyrics drawing from my own heritage as a member of the Armenian diaspora. We opened many concerts with this live version, one that also incorporates musical elements from Season 4.

The music of this series was the " invisible" character the one you never saw but the one you heard and could never forget.... So say we all so say we all
Bloody Baltar! 🧐 He's Twisted and Delusional. Six isn't even there! What amazing STUFF!
This soundtrack is 50% of the series
FACTS.
I mean, it was literally in the frakkin' ship.
So true!
so say (50)
I agree, probably the best television soundtrack ever
In the beginning, this reimagined version of Battlestar Galactica piqued my nostalgic interest from the original.
However, THIS story, THESE characters went far beyond its campy predecessor. All riding the waves of Bear McCreary's incredibly soulful scores... like this. All of this was a five year experience that did not disappoint. So thank you all.
I only wish Caprica could somehow be picked up again... reimagined... there's so much more to tell. #SoSayWeAll
The problem was likely going from an action series to something, erm, quieter ( ? ).
@@hughjassol-0- As a prequel or sequel, it was better than " Babylon 5 : The Crusade ". A lot of people want The Fast & Furious rather than Dickens.
Wait, Bear is Armenian?
Holy hell, it's possibly the only thing that could make me love that culture more than I already do. I can't ever get over how superb Armenian names sound. And the lyrics in this could very well be Tolkien's elvish, for their phonetic beauty.
You are the sole reason why I started watching Battlestar. When I learned you were the composer it was reason enough. Though the series is really good, too.
What show/film got you hooked on Bear McCreary initially? I'm curious because, for me, Battlestar was that show. That led to others like Sarah Connor Chronicles, Walking Dead, Da Vinci's Demons, Black Sails. Not trying to gatekeep, I'm just curious what someone else's path was.
The first time I noticed him as someone special was the intro of Black Sails. That must be the greatest intro of a TV-show ever. But I have to admit, I totally fell for him with the Godzilla-King of the Monsters soundtrack. I cannot describe the depths of emotions I went through everytime I watched it. The unapologetic and relentless devotion of this score to the love for the material is unparalleled IMO.
Then it took me almost 20 years to watch Battlestar after I realised he had made the soundtrack. And it is glorious! Second best intro of a TV-show, ever. The show is surprisingly layered and deep.
I still listen to BSG's albums to this day.
Bear is a pure musical genius. I put him right up there with Hans Zimmer and John Williams, any day as far as top movie composers. I get excited any time I see him name attached to a movie or tv series.
YES! Bear! I used excerpts from this soundtrack for my final project in Dialog & Score Editing class for my Audio Engineering course... there was a theory class down the hall from the lab I was using, and every few minutes a student would pop their head in the door to ask what I was playing or to comment on how epic it was sounding 😁

BEST SCORE EVER.
Your music starts and my emotions turn into mere puppets under a spell.
Truly wonderful as always. Raya Yarbrough.... amazing🙌
A masterpiece. Best composer ever.
I watched the tv show many times and I love the music. Such a masterpiece. I was trying to play the piano and try to make out the notes from memory but I couldn't so I came here. I saw it is your page and subscribed instantly. I know you might not like me or my people but I still believe we are all brothers and sisters. Love from Turkiye.
amazing, would have loved to have been at this concert.
Been to a few of them, and yeah- they did rock.
You are one of the most amazing artists.. you take us on a journey over the seas; through time and to distant places and cultures.. LOVE YOUR WORK BEAR MCCREARY!!! X
goosebumps, just watching again straight, Mini series + 4 seasons, last weekend on Amazon Video, still best science fiction drama ever.
Omg! I’ve been listening to you for the last few months! 👏👏👏👏 I love your music!
what an absolute masterpiece.
Raya Yarbrough, my GOD.
Full body chilllls
Even though I don't understand the language, this music and lyrics feel like they're speaking to something deep within my soul - something that has always understood even without being aware of it.
Ah, the Comic-Con concert, the one I didn't get to... Can't wait until the full concert video for this performance drops.
(Though I still have the copy of the DTLA concert.)
Now, to dig up the physical version for sale.
Այնպես որ, ասեք մենք բոլորս
Such a beautiful piece of music and singing- amazing, spine chilling, haunting
Best tv soundtrack ever

Meu deus uma br que ama bsg, uau :o
YESSSS FINALLY ITS ON SPOTIFY. THANK YOU!
agents of shield next? pretty please?
I'm glad McCreary has gone on to do well in the industry.
Is that John McLaughlin I'm seeing on the... I'm going to say mandolin? It'd be nice to have the personnel list for all of these amazing musicians.
Amazing performance as always!
Wait, is that an electric sitar? I found it weird that it sounded like one but didn't look like it, but it looks like certain models look like this, so maybe?
Looks like Steve Bartek to me.
Makes sense with Johnny Vatos on drumset

YEAAH!
How do we find out about concerts ? That’s what your UA-cam is for - to let us know so we can be there
Is that Hebrew she's singing?
I absolutely love this song and the context in which it appeared on BSG! *Would someone PLEASE translate this!*
It's Armenian.
Հեռու եւ ծանօթ տխրություն մը մեզ կը կանչէ
Քամիով բերուած՝ այրուող աւազի նման
Եղբայրներ եւ Քոյրեր՝ որ հեռւում էք՝ դուք կը տոկաք
Անելանելի վիծակի մէջ՝ մեր իսկ հողին վրայ։
Յիշողութիւն մը փորագրուած հոգու եւ մորթի մէջ
Կը թողնէ սպի մը որ երբեք չի բուժուիր
Մեր ընտանիքը ամուր է՝ բայց ցիրուցան
Աստղերու եւ դաշտերու տարածութեան մէջ։
Մենք ձեզ չի պիտի լքենք
Մենք ձեզ չի պիտի մոռնանք
Մենք ձեզ համար պիտի վերադառնանք։
A distant and familiar sadness calls to us
As if carried on the wind, like burning sand
Brothers and Sisters, away, you endure
Stranded on our own land
A memory etched into soul and skin
Leaves a scar that never heals
Our family is strong, but scattered
Across the stars and fields
We will not abandon you
We will not forget you
We will return for you
The one downvote comes from 2, I can put my money on it!
I hope that fans of this are familiar with Dead Can Dance.
Off topic question, why are the comments disabled for all of the GoW score?
Question - If there was one movie or games which you would have liked to work on this past year or upcoming months, what is it?
What language is this ?
Armenian
@@Sephiroth144 interesting.
Thanks bro

Who wants GOD OF WAR RAGNAROK trailer music ost.
Maybe if we mention it several times to Santa Monica Studio and Bear McCreary on Twitter, they will listen to us.
