No cost too great.
No mind to think.
No will to break.
No voice to cry suffering.
Born of God and Void.
You shall seal the blinding light that plagues their dreams.
You are the Vessel.
You are the Hollow Knight.

The hollow knight being in denial about the fact that it's possible for everything that got sacrificed for it to be wasted and only then can the infection stop is genuinely so sad
"Cast down by father, Born from our mother"
"Saved by our father, loved by our mother"
That kind of fits with the thought that it felt unable to speak, think or feel due to wanting to make it's father proud, which led to it's "hollow", being flawed and thus uts failure.
i hope they make a prequal that you play as the PV and maybe meet baby hornet.
If the PV/HK was in place of the knight and vice versa, how many enemies would he one tap?
@@MikaOfficial999 all of them but grimm and white defender.
I love the turn on "Don't think you'll win". The first time Hollow says it, it sounds like a confident "I will continue to do my duty, dear sibling. You cannot stop me!" but the second time... it's Hollow desperately rooting for the Knight, but still hopeless. It wants you to win, but it doesn't think you can. The Radiance is too strong. Too bright...
That’s a really good interpretation
how i interpreted it was similar, but framed with the knight facing the radiance head-on once the hollow knight dies (especially the second time). it knows the knight will try to take its duty, and knows that it has already failed by this point. so it urges the knight to do anything else.
with “there can’t be another,” it feels like a warning. ‘this didn’t work - it never will - so nobody should make the same mistake.’
“we all fail in the end. i still failed in the end.”
this is only further emphasized by a line a little earlier: “still we are the same”
Yeah what an idiot lol
Dont think you'll win. In fact, dont think at all you impure brat.
The blinding light clouded it's eyes
One of, if not THE saddest fight in the game.
This is a mercy for Hollow. While they were a failed Vessel, they did their duty regardless of the failure. A true Knight of Hallownest.
Rest well, dear Vessel, your duty is done. You fought bravely.
The music with and without lyrics tells a sad story about the hollow knight’s rise. And their fall. Truly one of the saddest ost in hollow knight.
one sad theory I've seen somewhere is the hollow knight had enough of himself left to understand the radiance was inside him and he tried stabbing himself to destroy the radiance but only ended up releasing more infection his body pulled itself back together a safeguard put in place so the vessel can't destroy itself meaning in trying to end the radiance he only made things worse
agreed
2nd saddest fight (after myla)
Hive Knight is arguably sadder
MAN, steel was not the person i would’ve anticipated to play the hollow knight but he does an absolutely PERFECT job capturing the utter ANGUISH of the character. the parts where he breaks out the growly and screamy voice is absolutely HEARTBREAKING, his voice is so powerful and really carries the emotion of the song!!! I also absolutely adore the parts where the chorus mirrors what the knight is saying with a slightly different twist on it, it shows such an interesting difference in the perspectives of the kingdom as a whole versus the much more PERSONAL feelings of the knight which direct themselves more towards the pale king and feeling they failed as a child. another knockout for this incredible package!
Well he did voice a god in a recent Kirb with Lyrics song by Juno.
Reminds me so much of megalovania, how much emotion was put into his words- This was not how I imagined this song being lyricised, but it was beyond what I had originally imagined. Truly a work of art befit of the hollow knight title!
Wow, he’s REALLY good with majestic villains
I was just surprised that Sans was the Hollow Knight this whole time
@@aarongrant1sans is Ness and the hollow knight???
Some people think that the HK should have a monotone voice or no voice at all, but a voice of such raw emotion is perfect for HK.
The Pale Kings plan was inherently flawed from the start, you cannot have an emotionless being. But even despite the plan being flawed from the start, PK made it worse.
He shared moments with HK like at the end of path of pain and treated them like a child, building more emotions in the HK, yet it repressed them to protect everyone else’s (and their) lives.
Yet this was their downfall. This feeling of duty and purpose built up even more pain and suffering. No matter how much they held the emotions down so the Radiance couldn’t control them, they leaked and allowed the infection to spread.
So When the knight made its way into the HK’s deathbed and they knew that this was their end, they let all their held down emotions out in one last burst of life. A being defined by its lack of emotion actually being filled of emotion, it’s poetically depressing.
Beautifully made lyrics for a beautifully made song
this was PEAK his voice was actually crazy and showed the emotion the hollow knight felt when infected.
Only three songs from MOTI have ever gotten me to tear up. This is one of them
2:58 man put his heart and soul into that scream
And the Shade too
@@ShadowSkryba Ba Dum Tsss
Probably blew out his voice
No more crying suffering for him I guess
Father ser your broken child 😭
Dont know if anyone noticed but at 1:46, the quote "but the infection still lives" turns orange while the Hollow Knight keeps singing, meaning possibly that the Radiance itself is singing that bit
I like how the line “I don’t think you’ll win” is talking about the infection not the Hollow Knight, this is specially noticeable in 4:29
Actually, I did interpret as him talking to the knight, but not as in he is going to kill him, but telling him to just give up completely as he has had the infection already and is sure that the knight can’t handle it
Imagine how Steel would sing the Pure Vessel version, We could hear the Calming version unlike the Sealed Vessel is purely Anguish
Pure Vessel can be a joke tho
@@snow-peabuttdssledger7332Just 3 minutes of complete silence.
Nothing but the choir of shades, knowing what will happen eventually... maybe even pure very quietly catching itself wanting to hum along before correcting, to show its imperfection
I would think mostly calm with a undercurrent of all this emotion because after all the Pure vessel is the hollow knight brought into the godseakers dream, like how Hornet is like do you haunt my dreams or I yours as just the kid of a higher being and Grim is like an "Honour seeker to attend your call, How grand a stage!, A charming ritual... a pleasure!" as he starts with bowing to the godseaker watching as she tries to attune and reach greater and greater heights.
though could also be more angry as you are also enchanting the infection while bypassing it's goal of keeping the infection inside as it gets attuned.
Ah yes.. The one that wasn't discarded. Absolute CHILLS at the beginning! No mind to think no will to break. The 'pure' one. A good vocal cover like always!
I imagine the pure vessel
yooooooooooooooooooo
This song is so good, you can hear in their voice that they aren't mad at the Pale king, but at themselves for failing the duty, the hollow knight think's their fault that the infection is spreading when in reality is that the radiance was just too much powerful for any other being (other than the void)
I always enjoyed this song. It’s no triumphant battle, but instead you’re fighting a broken sibling, torn down over countless years, stuck in its own failure. A pained soul, brought to a merciful end
The part "No will to break. No mind to think. No voice to cry *my suffering*" is truly magnificent
Perfection
@@GlitchedSocksunlike the hollow knight....
It recalls on the game lore and "rumors" about the perfect vessel that the pale king didn't notice
also "walked through different paths of but still we are the same, two creatures born to stop the plague, two creatures born of void and chain"
@@andistansbury4366 that part slapped harder than the path of pain
This was great! You did a really great job reflecting the hollow knights desire to make his father proud, the suffering the they went through. It catches this melacholy, this tragedy so well. This is by far my favorite song, both of the original OST and of your adaptations.
I don't know if my comment ever gonna be noticed but I wanna say some thoughts from my mind which this video gave me.
I love how MOTI put the personality of The Hollow Knight in this version. It knows that it did everything it was able to save the kingdom and thinks that if "The Perfect Vessel" couldn't stop the infection nobody can ("we all fail in the end/I still failed in the end"). And it has some delusions as well ("Saved by our Father/Loved by our Mother/I cannot falter/There can't be another"). I also love the fact that despite all the suffering The Sealed Vessel still has love for it's father ("Father see your broken child") and calling out to him to tell that it failed and the feeling of sorry of causing disappointment hits so hard. It DOES wants the torment to stop but also wants to fulfill it's duty depite the failure.
*PERSONAL POV HERE*
What I find the most relatable is that my parents did wanted me to be a GOOD (NOT TOP) student. They DO love me but to me just like in The Sealed Vessel's case I had idea instilled (I thought that if I study hard I'll make them happy which actually happened) and kinda blinded by love (even though I was always indeed a dreamer type), and I thought my only duty was to study in my life so I tried and went through school, university and I got my degree. After I had an office job I wanted to start my own dream but when COVID came my job was becoming so frustrating that I felt taken advantage of my hard work, and my motivations almost entirely drowned if it wasn't for my friends and my gf. (For the records I've always been an ideologist and my parents both realists which made me depressed sometimes/mostly)
In my eyes The Hollow Knight is the best representation of my almost-fulfilled completely-broken self after thinking that if I had no friends only my realist parents who told me "this is life" and I'll just wait 'till I die. Don't get me wrong, I have a positive view on death so I don't mind it and I'm building up my spiritual ways as well (which also has some nice connection to The Essence in the game)
The Choir I was wondering who is singing when this part 2:35 came in I started thinking if we hear The Siblings (including Hornet since EmilyGo is in there), The Void or MAYBE (but not likely) The Knight speaking for the other ones. No matter which one this makes this version even more of a personal conversation since they say "walked through different paths of pain/but still we are the same", "the plan to alter/there can be another"
And at the ending where they tell The Hollow Knight to "rest now fallen child/slumber, end your trial"-->"you can calm down now, you did your best, now your time has come". The almost last line: "End your fight our Hollow Knight" is interesting becuase it KINDA speaks to Both of our characters, The To-be Ex Hollow Knight and the To-be Hollow Knight.
*BONUS THOUGHT*
On Story-wise I love the message that the infection must be defeated from the inside and the Void itself was not enough to the stop the Radiance. It needed a little push by the Dream Nail which has The Essence to help. And since the King didn't know about this he thought The Void was the only hope to lock away the light in a void body inside a Void egg. But he was so so wrong.
I heard this somewhere "If you can defeat the enemy from the inside, the enemy from the outside can't hurt you."
So many spiritual and emotional messages in this game. I love it so much.
I love how at the end of the first section THK says what they think while the chorus says what the truth actually is
I know many others have mentioned this but the part of "No will to break, no mind to think, no voice to cry MY suffering!" Is just such a powerful sentence.
You know it's kind of ironic, that the Pale King after casting so many imperfect vessels into the abyss cause they didn't have the specific trait he needed, was the one that grew too close to the Pure Vessel and accidentally gave them emotions, a mind to think, a will to break and they both grew too close to each other and in the end... The Radiance won, the infection spread, and the Guilt of condemning all those thousands of children to the abyss and the fact it was all for nothing cause the plan didn't work was probably too much for the Pale King, and he probably... committed suicide. And then a vessel came to Hollownest heeded by the call of their fallen sibling and was able to seal the infection and defeat the Radiance, not by being completely empty, but instead having a will so strong they were able to overcome the Radiance.
This game man....
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!! This was the song everyone was waiting for, by far the most cinematic battle and song in the entire soundtrack. It's perfect musical material to follow the course of this scene and battle.
The chorus beckoning the Vessel to the Hollow Knight, urging it forward in its journey despite the knowledge of what's to come... and then the battle begins. Immediately the Hollow Knight screams out, shouting its only mission, its failure, the torment of years failing to seal in the infection, even now it still clouding its mind.
But finally, a moment of clarity. With another scream, it pulls away from the infection, fighting back, solemnly apologizing for its failure, reciting its pessimistic cries, wanting all this to end and yet not truly with the Vessel should continue its mission. But finally in its torment, it falls, the chorus only hoping for the brave, selfless Hollow Knight, who gave everything to stop the infection, to finally rest.
The scene is silent, watching as the Vessel is sealed in in its place, unable to voice its own thoughts on the matter. The chorus doesn't continue until it, like the viewer, is sealed out. Only voicing a quiet goodbye, and end to this sorry tale.
The “Lost to time, lost to rhyme” part connecting Hollow Knight to Broken Vessel is very beautiful.
This is genuinely so well made. The Hollow Knight's screams throughout the song really show how much pain it is in... the singing of everyone is absolutely magnificent... just, in general, I love this so much.
The last time I was so touched by anything about this game is when I learned THK crawls and does this little weak swing towards the very end of the battle. Seeing Stelyos in the title I already knew I will be emotionally destroyed in the best way, but this... I was afraid I'd be overhyped for this song but it is way beyond everything I could imagine
I HAVE WAITED A LONG TIME FOR THIS MOMENT, MY FAVOURITE VILLAINOUS INTERNET MUSICIAN
that was brilliant
@@dreamypizza8458did you comment before watching the video?
@@Znae629yes
because this is my most awaited MOTI song
I have been wanting this since the original hornet spooktober
This is just...…. incredible. The amount of small details in the lyrics I notice every time I watch this is amazing. 100% one of the best ones yet in my opinion
This song is fuckin amazing. I don’t need to say anymore, ya’ll did good
ever since I first found your hollow knight songs, I had been praying that you'd do a cover of sealed vessel, and you certainly didn't disappoint. Great work, as always!
Chills just pure chills from this... Excellent interpretation of this character, well done to all the people taking part of this!
It’s so surreal to hear Steel sound not so calm cool and collected. He did amazing voicing Hollow Knight!
Yeah when he legit “screamed” and stuff it was so cool!L
That's one of the reasons I loved Megalovania so much too; we got an entire Musical of Sans as the gentle and smooth voice... then suddenly the man is literally roaring at us.
I was SO excited to hear that side of Steel again here
My god the sheer emotion when screamed no gave me chills
Those lines in the middle were Hollow Knight quotes what was said when you visited the Birthplace- that broke me. It made me cry more than fighting the boss in game did
pls put this in spotfy
If they do the "sudden appearance of another character" it is either going to be the radience, or zote.
and if they do a joke cover, it’ll be “Truth Beauty, and Hatred feat. Zote.”
the intro ends at 1:29 if any of you wanted this
But he's so heroic! He is stabbing himself so he can stop the infection, poor guy, and a Chad too
😢 🫡
💪
This is some Phantom of the Opera level stuff here and I am HERE for it.
Holy shit, I actually got teary from this
Damn, this was good
Story context: An angry god of light brought a plague to the kingdom. The king made several vessels from the darkness below the kingdom. The best vessel fought the light god and contained the god and plague within itself. Now the vessel is leaking.
You play as one of the discarded spare vessels. In the default ending you seal the plague within yourself and kick the can down the road. In the true ending you enter the vessel's mind and kill the light god.
I really like the part "lost to time, lost to rhyme" as that was also in the old broken vessel song...those who are on this chanel for a long time or just those who lisened to old songs will understand
He remade that song two weeks ago too, so there's that.
@@jownadel1526 ah okay... I'll listen to than...
Steel voicing both the hollow knight and fecto elfilis in junos cover of Two Planets Approch The Roche Limit feels really fitting, i love his vocal range and the emotion he puts into each character
I’m really sad that this is the only Hollow Knight song MotI doesn’t have in spotify, it’s by far my favorite one :(
fell in love with a voice
Now re watching the song,I realized that,the verse of "Don't think you'll win" hits differently on each part of the song,the first one hits like THK is talking us we can't win because it wasn't our duty to stop the infection,it was theirs,the second time hits like if THK is talking us that Radiance can't be defeted and only contained but we aren't pure enough
I love hollow knight
3:52 perfection
Honestly, ever since I’ve played Hollow Knight. There has not been a SINGLE character as tragic as The Hollow Knight. Like, when you know the lore listening to the 2nd half of Sealed Vessel makes your eyes water (at least for me-) imagine causing the destruction of everything in this gigantic kingdom just because you loved your father. One of the saddest characters in fiction hands down.
Steel being the Hollow Knight is absolutely perfect
no will to break. no mind to think. no voice to cry out suffering. and no arms to stab themselves with.
a truly pure vessel
I never knew much about this game plot and the story unraveled so far and building into this one...wow. And Steele again man's on a roll. Cant even describe it beyond the other comments just wow
Damn, this made me cry... for real, tears and all...
Also "Walked through different *Paths of Pain*"
This is amazing 😭
Love the melody singing it really gives out deep and painful
Damn, I love at the end the same line that was used with the broken Vessel. Lost to time, Lost to rhyme
Same, gave me chills
Well... No words. I've been listening to this song since it was uploaded, looking to see if it has something that could be improved... I didn't find anything wrong. This song is too good!!! I don't believe that something as good as this exists in this world.
Edit: Man, the penultimate chorus before the song finished... I think it is the best of the song, and what most resembles perfection to me. Congratulations MOTI and the other singers for creating this work of art. This song will be hard to beat with other songs. I have never felt so much with a single song, and this is that song. Congratulations again.
Welp. Time to go cry! (Poor Hollow...)
Damm not the song I expected but this is so much better great job
I want this to be on Spotify
Loved the tone in this song, the guilt of the hollow knight having failed at stopping the plague.
“Earned my fathers pride… sealed the beast inside…”
The lyrics hit hard on this one, can’t wait to see more from y’all!
"Do not think..."
"Do not speak..."
"Do not hope..."
"Do not..."
"..."
"...Father...?"
- The Hollow Knight
A broken child, its sister and its nameless kin, fighting against a plague which calls itself a god for a dying kingdom.
No cost too great.
But what was gained?
There better be a song for Radiance next week because this was a depressing note to end the package on otherwise
There must be, they did both of hornets theme's yet here they showed the ending for what happened if you don't have the void soul. Something certainly doesn't add up.
I can’t unhear him as sans and I cannot take it seriously. GREAT SONG THOUGH!
He he I can your loss
THERE NEEDS TO BE A COMIC DUB CHANNEL WITH YOU GUYS!!
4:52
"Chills, literal chills"
the hollow knight sounds like an edgy teen.. perfect!
The Hollow Knight's theme always made me emotional, especially after knowing what it MEANT. Why the song was the way it was.
...I'm not crying, there's just- dust in my eyes!!
Edit: Now that I think about it, the chorus reminds me of all the siblings chanting for you to stop the infection one way or another, but also kinda like the entirety of Hallownest???
Great video
I’ve been waiting for this, imagining the lyrics for a year now, and it’s finally here!
I never thought this way about him before. In previous playthroughs I always thought the Hollow Knight was fighting out of the Radiance overtaking him and either turning him mad or into her puppet.
The idea that he is instead fighting to save the last bit of his father he has left, the charge he gave him, and the love his kingdom had for him regardless of how terrible he has failed and how many may even still know he exists. That's certainly a take that feels right at home among Hallownest's depressing atmosphere.
The art is amazing!
I don't know if anyone noticed this, but the other voice around 2 50 seems to be the Knights voice
Mannnn why is this not on Spotify
Yeahh like Whyyyy this one
Check their community post
@@AnUsername oh thank you, I didn't see it!
Bro that's so sad I wish it could be added
This is how i became a hollow knight fan the broken vessel fight was good but this is like being broken like the Broken Vessel this song GOES HARD BRO MY WHOLE LIFE IS DEDICATED TO THE BROKEN VESSEL SONG
Nah man this is like new year to me just ceap up the work with hollow knight
Man these songs are just telling me to play the game again
Finally, I've found "lost to time lost to rhyme "!
Король создаёт сосуд не способный думать, говорить и мечтать.
Сосуд поёт песню
Король: похоже это не полный рыцарь меняй его
PS
Мне не больше понравиться Гримм в твоём исполнение, а полый рыцарь в исполнение айсера
Когда проходил hollow knight твои и его песни напевались во время босс файтов
I didn't think lyrics could work with this song, but you guys pulled it off quite well! Though I kind of wonder how it would've sounded if the Hollow Knight's voice was distorted/corrupted at the beginning but became more clearer near the end.
2:23 is the best part
I haven't gotten this choked up from a MOTI adaptation since Undertale the Musical. Great job.
crying and begging hk to just harmonize with the the vessel at the end :C
The story of the Hollow Knight is truly a beautiful tragedy and the final phase theme really does a good job at expressing the emotion in the fight
I think that's the first track I heard from you where the voice doesn't perfectly fit with the character for me after broken vessel (it sounded good though. Both.). Don't take it bad though! I think it's funny actually. And also is there any way to make a fitting voice for the hollow knight while he canonically has no voice at all? IDK... Anyway all your musics are great and somehow perfectly fit the lore of the moment. Lyrics always flawless, voice is perfect at least 95% of the time, you even made an original track for fnaf. How can I not subscribe?
I like how the more the song goes on, the more the vessel starts begging for his trial to end and admits defeat really shows how much this vessel has gone through
thank you 🥲
You know what? You are the cause of people simping over bugs! Why did you have to give the hollow knight such a…nice voice?! At least I know it’s a real persons voice behind the screen, but you make me feel so guilty 😭😭
im blessed
loving the vocals, you can truly hear how hurt the hollow knight is.
No Melody to Think.
No Chords to Break.
No Voice to Sing.
Born Of Melody and Rhythm.
You shall seal the deafening noise that plagues their dreams.
You are the Vessel.
You are the Hollow Knight.
fun fact, the hollow knight only has one arm, not two
это было прекрасно
Just perfect, you took the track and made it a masterpiece!
good stuff, this is truly me when I lose my arm in the egg chamber
God I hate when I try to suck up the orange juice moth but fail and lose my arm.
Cool!
why does the ending always make me cry?
HYPE HYPE HYPE HYPE
I always thought this was one of the most tragic boss fights in recent memory but this cover seemed to make it ten times more sadder
So awesome! Can’t wait to see a version that has hornet assisting allowing the knight to fight the Radiance
Whoever was recording the gameplay REALLY didn't get the attack with infection coming from the ground
It's wonderful.... 😍
