Whatever team was involved in the making of this deserves a raise
No mate this team deserves every single Movie Award possible coz i felt more emotions in 4:45 than i have watching 3 hour long movies
Exactly. These movies are full of this drama but this just conveys so many emotions and raises chills among my arms every single time. This is the definition of a *perfect* trailer. Plus hearing Jaina sing is a bonus. 10/10
I am pretty sure this is a blizzard team. Their first work like this (if I recall correctly) was the Starcraft 2 "Reclamation" short.
Don't quote me on that though, not sure.
Not a Yetti well it was blizzard but not all of blizz was involved here, the specific team that worked on this deserves a raise.
Blizzard make many epic trailer, but since Jaina is my favorite character, this one make me feel the most.
jaina voice actor is just 10/10 at this point
Laura Bailey is 10/10 in everything she does
Laura Bailey is an awesome voice actress!
She's amazing. I've seen her acting on Critical Role. She gets into the character's emotional state so quickly and convincingly. Pretty sure she's brought me to tears multiple times just by playing DnD :D
@@goldenwoofer4757 and she's so humble and pretty
Laura Bailey is THE Goddess
Laura Bailey is amazing. The level of emotion in her voice.
Of course it's Laura Bailey
whaaat?? it is her???
wow
@@VladaArtyeah and no mention of her name in the credits.
@@VereskVeil because most people with brain's know it's her
@@jamess.1006 No, not everyone knows it's her. Chill
Anyone in 2024
... no. That'd be insane.
beware the daughter of the sea my friend! 🌊
Me
It hits in everytime and anytime
yessir
Long story short: Jaina had to choose between war and her father's death. She chose her father's death. Then she still had war.
@Johto Ironically, those people actually being Blizzard - constantly shoehorning a faction conflict at all costs, because they can't seem to figure out that the "war" in Warcraft doesn't always have to be Horde vs. Alliance all the time no matter what.
Feelsbadman
well said
War takes one, peace takes two. Sometimes it's not your choice to make :'(.
really? theres plenty of legion for people to fight. but humans just love wars
All she ever wanted was to study...
And to live with Arthas as King and Queen.
She did well
then a giant daemon showed up and that puts an end to that...
And have her blonde kids... sadly she was not a Disney princess.
Leo Koutakis Means that the students are the most dreadful?😂
This was probably one of the best things to come out of Battle for Azeroth.
the best thing for sure
In my opinion this is the best 4 minutes of content in wows history. It's just fantastic.
The only good thing.
@@somerando9475 Absolutely agree 100%. Warbringers lore is the best in Warcraft history.
@@abyssus9304 Speak for yourself. Horrific Visions are still the best content WoW ever made. Let's see how Delves go.
"I'm listening now... father..."
That's one very powerful delivery if you ask me. Amazing voice acting.
Laura Bailey truly is an absolutely incredible voice actress and singer.
And how its the similar line of Arthas' just weighs in
@@heleina5838 *Ghost of Daelan*: what are you doing, Jaina?
*Jaina*: Succeeding you, father
@@Cryogenius333 lol
I’m sure many people that lost their fathers can relate to that line
In Warcraft 3 campaign her last words to her father are: "Father... why wouldn't you listen?" and here she says "I'm listening now father."
Make of it what you will.
"Her heart is a crater and we have filled it"
That the writers are so bad at their job that they can't get simple throwback to Warcraft 3 lore right?
@Arcticaz You're a moron who doesn't understand the complexity of literary analysis. That scene in the video above was not a flash back to Warcraft 3. That was her talking to the Ghost of her father, Daelin. She was acknowledging that she was wrong before, and it was HER that wouldn't listen, not him. She was referencing what she had said in the past, "Father...why wouldn't you listen?" She now realizes she was the one who was wrong, and it cost her the lives of many innocents. "I'm listing now father." She's literally saying, "You were right father, it wasn't you that needed to listen, it was me. I see that now."
Don't bash their writers because it flies over your head. I think they did an incredible job.
Adding on to that...is it really Daelin that Jaina's listening to, though? She wouldn't be the first character to think her dead loved one has come back to life... *cough* Fandral Staghelm *cough*
Teric haha omg you need to chill it was a joke. Honestly though, her dad was so blinded by his hatred for the orcs that he was pretty much insane. Her not listening to him was a good thing.
"Beware... beware... of me." always sends chills down my spine!
same
Me too. This whole song does. But that ending is just *boom*
same here
Yeah i agree, so much anger in her.. ;(
Haven’t you hear the russian version?
I think, you’ll like it
Breaks my heart to remember this was one of the last time's i was emotionally invested in WoW, and thats after most of my love for the game had already left
This is so hecking true it hurts
This gives me Arcane vibes, the voice, animation, story touches deep
Dude this wasn't even that long ago. Seems like overreaction.
Same
@@gimlix7153 2018 was 4 years ago, seems pretty long to me.
This cinematic was better than entire BFA expansion.
Sad but true bfa would be way more better we had N'zoth (the worst fight ever seen) and more...
AnOtHeR tUrTlE MaDe It tO tHe wAtEr
Bfa should be warcraft4 rts
yeah, jaina's story was the only part of the expac that wasn't dogwater
@@ComicalConqueror hey my dog would not drink bfa water.
A lot of people do not fully understand the tragedy that is Jaina’s entire life. She lost her love to the powers of the Lich king and become the very embodiment of evil, she lost Dalaran as it was destroyed by Archimonde, her mentor was killed by Arthas, she left her home and life behind to travel to Kalimdor, fought off the burning legion, had to watch her father be killed in the name of peace, years later have to face off against her love after trying to find a way to redeem him, having to kill him, then watching as the Horde she fought to have peace with destroy her kingdom, return back to Kul Tiras branded a traitor, and watch her dead brother be reanimated into undeath. My heart HURTS for her.
Everyone loses everything in Azeroth. Sylvanas, Greymane, maybe Saurfang which leads a raid against his undead son... It's just that half of them are strong, some other just rants.
That’s gonna be an F in chat from me, a life long Horde player
She has not just lost, she also failed all those things. She stood 'aside' too often.
No matter what she has rebuilt, it has fallen apart. In the end, only her roots, her family and country, seem to be what can really bring any notion of peace. And it would seem that peace could only happen after she returned home and submitted herself for judgment.
These things happen to evil people.
FOR THE HORDE!
Omg its just a game..
"I understand more than you suspect, my dear. Perhaps in time, you will too."
- Admiral Daelin Proudmoore
Nice man.Now i want to click on the beasts in warcraft 3.
A hellbent crusader, fixated on his hatred of the orcs and the horde.
Definitely, which is why she turned away from him. But after all the horde have put Jaina through, she's starting to believe he was right.
Not what the Horde put her through. What Garrosh did. Garrosh manabombed everything she loved, the horde did not.
The orcs are an invading alien race that were demonically possessed by the Legion. There is no moral equivalency between the two sides. Jaina should have helped her father wipe them out instead of being a filthy race traitor.
It's easy to think that this is a canon shanty sung by Alliance sailors in Kalimdor and Jaina's probably heard it often.
I remember during BFA, during the war campaign taking the little boat from your landing zone in zuldazar to the main alliance hub for zuldazar, one of the sailors on the boat was singing this.
It is canonically a folk song sung by Kul Tirans, since it details her 'betrayal' of her people. It also comes from the old Admiralty nursery rhyme that you can hear her father sing to her as a child, in one of the flashback cutscenes.
Iirc Flynn Fairwind sings a few verses in prison.
That would have to be awkward, lol!
5yrs later and this song still gives me goosebumps.
5 years already? Jesus, how time flies. Feels like yesterday to me.
But yeah, this song is the best part of BfA to me
I don't care about the game anymore. But the visuals, audio and storytelling of Blizzard cinematics are still unmatched.
The lore has always been my favorite part of Warcraft
You've heard of Final Fantasy yeah?
Dont know much about story or audio. But cinematics are definetly better in FFXIV than this powerpoint slideshow. Or any of those trailers for each expansion.
i stopped playing long ago after WOTLK yet i always a faithful follower of it's lore... Warcraft universe is AMAZING, i could spend a whole day just binge reading all of the character stories, events, etc in Wiki page
Then came the N'zoth finale.
Powerful emotions. Jaina's last words to her father in WC3 before his death were "Father... why wouldn't you listen?". Now she sees his side of it, and finally tells him regretfully "I'm listening father"
Roshea you're beast
This looks like wotlk cinematic
Her daddy attacked Durotar when they were at peace. Everything that followed is just a convenient excuse to blame the Horde for this conflict
thaloh with good reason. her father had seen the savage of the horde during the first invasion. he know the true nature of the horde and there will never be peace. and the horde right now is proving him right again and again.
GGTeMpLaR Actually she said "Father... why wouldn't you listen?"
When the Kul Tiran sailors and Marines landed in Theramore they had no idea what they were walking into. News of the Burning Legion had only just been filtering east as rumors, everyone else was more concerned with the Scourge and orcs. Now the Admiral finds his daughter and thousands of people survived and escaped. The Kul Tirans thought they were coming the save the day, the heroes of this story.
Only to become the villains.
Daelin protected his ship and fallen crew in the afterlife and awaited his daughters return and promptly forgave her and led her to the ship for whatever she needed. He waited, knowing she would come back when she needed to.
He may have warned kul tiras of his daughter but he understood and never stopped loving her :'(
and he was consumed by his hatred after derek's death.
@@patrikzotaj4528 if you were in his place you would do the same do you know how many life the horde took before thrall became warchif
@@Jhin966Millions. : (
I've never played WoW in my life and this trailer managed to give me chills despite not having a clue about any of the backstory.
pay wc3 bonus campaign
Honestly, just playing Warcraft 3 and its expansion, Frozen Throne, will get you a lot of the backstory. They are Single Player games (with Multiplayer modes) and quite good.
Don't even have to play the game. Read the book "Tides of War". It tells a big part of Jaina's story
Every cinematic thing Blizzard makes gives me chills at some point. I get the feeling they've got a "chills"-guy
Wc3 with frozen throne expansion? Oh i remember that! Was that the game where DOTA 1 created by icefrog and then became so popular? The rising of MOBA game!
If Blizzard ever decided to get into the animated movie game they would give Disney and Pixar a run for their money for sure
true
As someone who works for Disney, I totally agree. The problem is I think Blizzard just doesn't have quite the proper funds to promote such a project. I would love it tho!
Yes they do, on WoW alone they net a billion a year.
where did you see that they net a billion a year on WoW alone?
Gregus 15 a month alone not including cash shop
This is what Warcraft should be. No Jailer shenanigans.
Arthas sure knew how to pick a bae
but he knows how to lose all only for revenge
Most underrated comment in here bro
but weren't they like an arranged marriage anyways ? lul
@@xDamage69 Nah, infact Jaina was probably not even a good fit for a prince. In a very basic summary, Jaina and him fell in love when they were young. They got very close to a point where Jaina started to talk about marriage. Arthas wasnt ready for that so even though they still loved each other they seperated.
@@lazza_broken49 Arthas was set up by Mal'Ganis, obviously, but he also legit got inted by Jaina and Uther. They just randomly didn't trust him regarding what the Plague would do, even though Arthas knew the Plague better than either of them, and had done nothing but try to protect people up to that point in his life. Being betrayed at Stratholme was a huge part of why Arthas was so Captain Ahab about killing Mal'Ganis. He himself really did nothing wrong.
Can't stop watching this on repeat, man catchy tune!
Same dude, song gives me chills every single time.
Hey nobbel. Did you notice her eyes in the beginning?
Nobbel87 tru
only a boi in blue would say crazy things
Same! Can't take it out of my mind. This is so well done from any point of view
Thrall and Jaina fought for peace.
What did Thrall get?
A wife. A good stable job with the Earthen Ring and a chance to walk away.
What did Jaina get? A dead city. A broken heart. And anger. So much anger
she has every right to be angry the horde under grommash hellscream manabombed the very nation she tried to uphold peace. and she lost her apprentice and Rhonin her dear dear friend.
ok but A president does not define the people of said country... so ...
Garrosh not Grommash. Grom is even sort of respected by the Alliance for killing Mannoroth even though he was one of their greatest enemies. Garrosh was his son.
badfoody Thrall had to watch people suffer under Garrosh and his tyranny beforehand, labelling Horde again as savages, which he has been trying to change for such a long time, also lost both Cairne and Voljin in the process of defending Azeroth, both of which were precious allies and friends to him. In the end he killed the son of his best friend whom saved his life, to uphold the peace on Azeroth, and although Garrosh went to the dark side, Thrall was still the closest thing to a father that Garrosh had, so i'd argue that he ain't too happy and dandy character.
because the horde ARE savages and have always been. they cant blame alliance for anything because they started everything.
Who's here still listening to this song in 2023?
Me
Me. Super sad 😭😢 though.
Yo
Me
Eyyy Let's GOOOOO
Being the daughter of a deceased sailor (and though he didn’t lose his life at sea) this short resonates with me in a way I never expected
If Jaina does go off rails. All we'd ask is she not be under anyone's control, she's earned that.
Someone with no whispers, no monsters in the dark. Just a living consequence of trying for peace and happy endings, being met so many times with pain, loss, and good works undone. Challenge players' minds as to "If this parade of pressure had happened to you. What would you have done?" rather than power of friendship to beat mean ol' brain tentacles, before dying to clear decks for the next threat.
Jaina seems to be wandering closer and closer to going full John Wick
Oooo~! Nice to see you OEM. :3 How's things coming along for your vids? Looking forward to the new expansion?
She does go off the rails, while being tormented in BFA, LONG LIVE HIGH ADMIRAL JAINA PROUDMORE!
if she goes imo thrall should go i also never understood why blizzard never made them more close than they seem.
its really odd how her personality switched once thrall left as warchief. its just odd....
Where is Thrall while this is going on?
Shouldn't he try to make peace and all that? I mean I have read that these guys had become friends again
And I will be standing by her!!
Who put these onions here
weakness disgusts me
hey this isnt overwatch!
ThatPunchKid ogres are like onions!
can't handle your own emotions, soyboy?
I teared up too

Indeed, well said !
Jaina purges Dalaran: Rexxar sleeps
Jaina fights against an omnicidal maniac: "Jaina has gone too far!"
The pure contradition between this masterpiece and the absurd conclusion of BfA still baffles me.
same. it must be hard for the artist see the proyects be a dissaster at the end bcs of bad direction and storitelling.
@@Gaben38 alliance has way better racials. Also the BFA story was bad for everyone, not just alliance.
@@zain6008 I mean they've made clear the intent. _All_ the warcrimes and horrible, horrible atrocities the Horde have committed? Swept under the rug because Sylvanas is now the lightning rod for hate. Meanwhile the whole of the Alliance now gets silenced, painted poorly, because Tyrande is reacting quite _accurately_ for having a damned World Tree burned down with insane numbers of her people in it and her husband nearly killed. That gets her branded as the next villain we're going to "take down." The Horde gets reclamation, their sins forgiven and uplifted to honour... The Alliance brought low to villainy for being furious with the result. Explain to me how the Horde gets a bad deal by comparison.
@@JacksonJinn It wasn't the entire horde that burned down the tree. It's a fairly rough deal for them all to be branded with it.
Blizzard wanted to have their cake and eat it so they had both the faction war and the Black Empire invasion in the same expansion. In my honest opinion, the should have probably stuck with just one story.
The fact that blizzard made me feel bad about killing Jaina's father in wc3 even if i hated his guts for years by watching a 4 min video deserves praise.
Achievementsish I still hate admiral proudmoore's guts
Daelin Proudmoore wouldn't listen to reason and allowed his past experiences to blind him to the fact that The Horde had changed.
Jaina abandoned both Arthas and her father, don't feel bad man.
The fact that it makes me feel the death of Admiral Proudmoore is justification enough for the nation to hide away from the world for 14 years is an achievement.
prideofasia99 ...or did it?
"My father once told me, that peace was like a dream... Beautiful. Ephemeral. Unattainable. I didn't listen..."
"... I'm listening now ... Father..."
Richard Shepherd cool connection. freaking love jaina's story.
"Why didn't you listen?"
-Jaina, crying over the body of her father in WCIII
a little girl didnt listen to his father and then regret, seems like each one of us
It's like pottery, it rhymes
Her hypocrisy and self-righteous deprivation continues. She chose to became a war criminal. She chose to drench her hands in the blood of the innocent. She chose to let families and children be burned to ash. She chose to round up and execute people because of their race alone. She can’t die soon enough.
2 years later this still gives me chills
Me too
How about 4?
I'm f*cking crying, dude. Despite the fact that I'm playing for the horde. This thing is so emotional.
"I'm listening now.. father" The look on her face as she finally yields hope. Like a star flickering out in the night sky :(

I'd watch a 3 hour movie of that
"Beware, Beware, The daughter of the sea " I heard him cry.
His words carried upon the ocean breeze,
As he sank beneath the tide.
Those blood-soaked shores of Kalimdor,
Where sailors fought and died.
The Admiral fell at Theramore,
Because she left his side.
Why this? Why this, oh Daughter of the Sea?
Why this? Did you forget your seaside days?
Always the pride of our nation's eyes,
How could she go astray?
When she did flee across the ocean deep,
The Admiral followed west.
What else but sail to save a daughter's life,
And pray she still drew breath?
But there he found upon those distant shores,
Enemies 'pon the rise!
But when he faced those savage foes
His daughter stood aside.
And buried deep beneath the waves,
Betrayed by family.
To his nation, with his last breath, cried,
"Beware the Daughter of the Sea."
I heard, I heard, across a moonlit sea,
The old voice warning me,
"Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea",
"Beware, beware..."
...of me.

You: “Beware…beware…of me”
Son: 😨
haha thats parenting done right
That is exactly how I'm gonna be an aunt😂
It is such an odd detail. But the anchor symbolism in this short is AMAZING. Her resolve to no longer stand by, (striving for peace) is shown visually as a war ship that is ready to sail with its anchor that was raised from the bottom of the sea.
All the things that were holding her down, her father took it with him to his grave.
I wanna see this song performed live at the next Blizzcon!
Wowmusicable Warcraft Music when is the next Blizzcon?
It's usually in November
I need lyrics of this song and available this song to iTunes Store right? Lol love this so much #Thaifanclub
It's not a song it's a shanty
Yeeees pleeeaaase!
I'm a Horde player through and through. I've loved all the Warcraft animated shorts... but this is the first time one made me cry.
Few characters in the Warcraft universe have been screwed as much as Jaina Proudmoore. Everyone else has always benefited from the peace she always fought for, while everyone and everything she's ever loved has been killed or destroyed. And that song! That song...
Yes she has been majorly screwed. AND ALL BY THE HORDE!
Genn Greymane is a close second though. he lost his Kingdom and his Son. to Sylvanas too.
The worst thing is that I am for the horde 100%
But I hate how Horde can't choose a good leader..
Have you seen "Rise and shine?"
Same here! Nobody gave and worked more for the peace than Jaina! And in the end she was betrayed...
I'm here 4 years later to say that blizz still hasn't done anything to top it
It's been 5 years now and this song still breaks my heart..
*Lyrics*

This needs to be pinned. Some people like myself ain't so good at picking up song lyrics without reading them.
This is phenomenally good, extra props to Laura Bailey for the amazing singing in addition to other voice talents!
silence you
Laura Bailey is a queen!
when you aren't a Wow player for years prior to its release , but you are still coming back to hear it again and again , years after it released
So possibly of significance. In the BFA features trailer she said "My father once said, peace is like a dream, beautiful, ephemeral...unattainable. I didn't listen." and in this she says "I'm listening now, Father." and he vanishes. I might be reading too much in to it but to me at least it's him forgiving her. But hey it might also just be her finally accepting the guilt or whatever.
She says "I'm listening now," to signify she is ready to go to war. She now believes peace is unattainable, as her father told her many years ago.
your not reading to far at all. She now, after decades of trying to find peace is finally picking a side. She may not go directly killing horde like an evil person, but she will fight them when needed, and she is accepting this)
Good because she's been betrayed over and over by the Horde. The things she's been through, it's good Blizzard has finally made her into a battle hardened leader the Alliance can rely on.
She wanted to destroy all of Orgrimmar. That seems pretty direct.
You're not looking too much into it at all. You're right.
It is a common writing trope to use dialogue in this manner.
Almost a week later and still listening to this several times a day. Absolutely stunning, Blizzard.
no lol
Imagine if we get a Sylvanas song ?
I want the Sylvanas song-its will be awesome
no more songs please :C
Lament of the Highborne variation?? Elven language?
This song gives me goosebumps every time, and occasionally gives me misty eyes
I play Horde, however Jaina's story is so sad. This song is so catchy and it gets stuck in my head. She has a beautiful voice. This was the best of the Warbringers series.
BLIZZARD DON'T GO TO HOLLYWOOD! MAKE YOUR OWN MOVIE PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!
What about warcraft?
They went to Hollywood for that. Legendary Pictures.
They should do their own animated films. Just look at WoW's cinematic trailers !
Dartharion that would be amazing
But too expencive. Thats why they went to Hollywood.
Please make a straight song version of this.
It’d be really cool to hear to hear this randomly playing in Kul’Tiran taverns from time to time.
Selwrynn omg yes please
Selwrynn the ONLY good part about this song is her singing at the end.
Pain cool opinion bro
I heard someone say this song might be on the soundtrack CD of BfA, but I'm not 100% sure.
Actually, it is in game, and kul tirans do indeed sing it from time to time
This will forever be one of my top favorite songs of WoW. You can feel the raw emotion poured into every verse, every note, every beat of this masterpiece. It makes me want to hear more characters get a song like this. Also the visuals of the artwork is just has stunning. This is what keeps me coming back for more WoW. I wish to see more of this dedication to the characters & lore in the future.

I am deeply touched by the line "His daughter stood aside ", don't remember anything described in War3 campaign about what Jaina actually do but I can imagine with this line
Daelin was a vengeful, hate-consumed Admiral who took over an entire state of the Alliance to combat Thrall's Horde -- Theramore. After all he had gone through fighting the old, mad and corrupted Horde, he refused to let any remnant of the Horde remain, despite the fact that Thrall was peaceful. He targeted him, despite the fact that Jaina approved of Thrall and even told his father about it, and Daelin finally found Jaina, but didn't stop there. He started raiding the Horde out of hatred, and eventually, with the Alliance tired of his aggressive actions, and no one backing him, the Horde cornered him in Theramore, destroyed his forces and killed him out of necessity.
And so fell Daelin Proudmoore; victim of his own hatred.
She smuggled her people out of the battlezone that became Daelin's death, of that helps. She partnered with the Horde, who protected her people on their way to escape.
@@svartalfheimian8271 horde orcs imprisoned Alextraza and froced her brood to attack Alliance ships, one of these dragon attacks killed Dalein's son and Jaina's brother, the first horde sacked Stormwind and killed many people in southern Western Kingdoms.

@@dumitrache12 Those were remnants of the first Horde. Not tied to the one Thrall built.
@@ItCameFromTheSkyBeLothe actions of the horde immediately after thrall leaves proves he was right though. The horde has become more clever and patience but is still very much the bad guys.
Admiral Proudmoore: "You have always been naive, my daughter. You aren't old enough to remember what these monsters did to our homeland. The orcs and their kin cannot be trusted. They must be exterminated like the mongrels they are!"
Jaina: "I won't let you do it, father. You don't understand!"
Admiral Proudmoore: "I understand more than you suspect, my dear. Perhaps in time, you will too."
A storyline 15 years in the making.
Yup, I think its going to be good. When I played warcraft 2 years ago. I didn't think of the story much. But just imaging how the horde was with their bloodlust and the acts they did during the first and second war. It is hard to forgive. Admiral Proudmoore had his reasons for his hatred.
One manabomb later....
and a bell later
Yup, guess those guys didn't help save all of Azeroth or anything.
@Arkham - Doing one good does not negate one bad. And vice versa. The effect is still there. Giving an impoverished family millions AFTER murdering their child doesn't bring the child back.
Blizz, you should totally give us more songs to sing with our friends on our adventures on Azeroth!
yoricade totally...
We only need the power of the horde and I am murloc
I'm a Horde player, have always been and always will be. But this... this a completly different story. I can't stop loving and listening to this song. I've set it as my alarm, my tone, I listen to it while I'm studying... I must have heard it over a hundred times and the part when she says "Beware.. of me" still gives the chills.
that "Beware Beware.. of me" if you wipe her fight in the raid will haunt me to my grave
I came back to WoW two weeks ago after a 10 year break. This quest completion reward was totally unexpected, as that sort of thing didn't exist ten years ago, and it's an absolute gem. The depth in the game now is staggering. Credit to the animation team and the musicians that produced such a wonderful addition to the WoW universe. I stand and applaud, bravo!
Glad you're having a good time with it :) Welcome back to the zoo
Exactly that happened to me now, getting back after 14 years... Glad I noticed that chest along the way:)
Great singing Laura Bailey!
Gave me chills
Almost as good as Sarah Greene doing The Parting Glass at the end of AC4:Black Flag. Almost. Like, a hair's breadth.
But overall... everyone involved? Tops even the best LotR end credits.
Someone else sang it. Laura Bailey does the voice normally.
I'm fairly certain that Laura Bailey sings in the beginning and at the end of the song, but not in the middle part where the music gets higher.
I think Laura sings in the beginning and the end. (really good!) And the middle part is more like a story that is sung about her. Maybe from her mother( jainas mother)? I don't remember her mothers voice that good
Beware, beware the Daughter of the Sea.
Beware, I heard him cry.
His words carried upon the ocean breeze,
As he sank beneath the tide.
Those blood-soaked shores of Kalimdor,
Where sailors fought and died.
The admiral fell at Theramore,
Because she left his side.
Why this? Why this oh Daughter of the Sea?
Why this? Did she forget her seaside days?
Always the pride of our nation's eyes,
How could she go astray?
When she did flee across the ocean deep,
The admiral followed west.
What else but sail to save a daughter's life,
And pray she still drew breath?
But there he found upon those distant shores,
Enemies on the rise!
But when he faced those savage foes
His daughter stood aside.
And buried deep beneath the waves,
Betrayed by family.
To his nation, with his last breath, cried,
Beware the Daughter of the Sea.
"I'm listening now... Father."
I heard, I heard
Across a wounded sea,
The old voice warning me
Beware, Beware, the Daughter of the Sea,
Beware, Beware... of me.
toychristopher thank you for that!!!
I think it’s just “daughter of the sea” rather then “seas”
Thank you for this...my question is, why did she flee, and why did he chase her down?
Callie C in Warcraft 3 she help evacuate the survivor citizens from Lorderon and Dalaran from the Scourge invasion. Daelin Proudmoore, heard of the falls of Lorderon and the expedition fleets Jaina use for evacuation heading for the west(Kalimdor), follow her to save her life.
"the old voice warning me" . DO NOT LISTEN TO THE OLD VOICES!
2024? Anyone still listened it?
Do you remember the days, when you still had hope?
Yup
I feel like the music team and voice actress should get some individual credits for this. Love this so much.
reikoshea laura bailey is amazing.
That's definitely Laura singing.
Is it Laura Bailey? I mean I figured she would have recorded this well before she have her son but there’s nothing saying she is a part of bfa
Yes its her, look on her twitter, she wrote that the song was SO MUCH FUN to record :D love Laura, she is really the best.
Yeah. She's always voiced Jaina and she did a song for critical roll at the end of campaign 1, this is her for sure.
this literally gives me the most chills any song has before... four years later
Who's here in 2023 reminiscing of when WoW stirred deep emotions
Only emotions stirring nowadays from Blizzard is pure disgust.
Here. Wish we had this quality writing now.
Didn't know how much WoW needed sea shanties until today.
Regardless of what people's opinions about Blizzard and the game itself are - the Media team is beyond phenomenal; every cinematic, every animated short and every comic (the madefire ones especially) are always of such incredible quality they give me goosebumps. Three mighty cheers for you guys, you're absolute legends and masters of your craft!
that's true. i hope hat at some point in time Blizz will create animated movies of WoW
Well maybe not movie, shorts would work. Blizzard cinematics are great (same goes for most animated vg trailers anyhow) because they can present a concise focus into a short amount of time, thus quality>quantity such and such. A full length movie loses then, and is much more prone to problems hence risky and likely not worth it.
It's been 5 years and the song is still stuck in my head.
- After all this time?
- Always!
Jaina became one of the best done characters along with Arthas and Illidan. Great job Blizzard.
uuuhmm... naaah brah !
Nope. Illidan was wasted the day they decided to recycle him in full marvel style.
Jaina becamejust a raging lunatic.
Arthas, not being rebooted, just stayd the one good character he was.
Alessandro Melito fino a dove la storia di Illidan è figa? Conosco poco di wow, ma la storia di illidan la leggerei volentieri
there are demon hunters in vanilla. you literally have a quest to resurrect loramus a demon hunter. meaning they already didnt permanently die
The only good character left is Millhouse Manastorm.

For anyone wondering, yes those ships are just as massive in-game.
_Also, this has easily become one of my favorite lyrical songs ever written for game._
Oh yes. Both the Kul Tiran battleships and the Zandalari Golden Fleet are amazingly designed and scaled. Have to give kudos to the art folks for them.
Not quite as big but definitely the biggest ship they ever put in the game.
I do...
speak for yourself, we care
no one cares about you
Still gives me goosebumps. Laura Bailey has the voice of an angel.
Laura Freaking Bailey!
The GOAT voice actress!!
I'll take my time to share some basic lore/story behind this Warbringers for people not knowing the background. Year 2003, Blizzard released Warcraft 3 - The frozen throne expansion which included a campaign where you played as the Horde. Admiral Daelin Proudmoore (Jainas father) was a vicious and powerful man who lead the mighty Kul'tiras fleet. After years of searching for Jaina after the fall of Lordaeron and Dalaran he finally found out that his daugher is alive and she's been taking stand on Theramore isle in Kalimdor. He decided to go find Jaina but when he arrived to the shores of Kalimdor, he saw how weak "the new horde was" and brought war and murder to innocent tribes, woman and children in Durotar and Barrens in search for her. Keep in mind that Thralls horde were somewhat warriors, but mostly civilians trying to rebuild a new home in Kalimdor. Many innocent people died and Thrall who was warchief needed to do something about the Kul'tiran invasion. With many important characters, mainly Rexxar and Rok'han, Thrall decided in a peaceful way to reach for Jaina to stop this madness. After hearing what Daelin done to the horde, Jaina decided to help Thrall stop this reckless war and to keep the peace between Theramore and the Horde. This lead to that Jaina betrayed Kul'tiras and her father and let the horde lay siege on Theramore. Keep in mind that Jaina was the leader of Theramore so she probably rallied her own forces to withdraw and in the campaign she said to Thrall "please spare my men, they have nothing to do with this". Thrall promised that this would not harm Theramore but only the Kul'tiran forces in a campaign to kill Daelin Proudmoore. Admiral Daelin Proudmoore mocked the Horde as if they were as savage as the old horde and he was surprised they haven't killed eachother by this time. Keep in mind that it was not only Orcs who fought the Kul'tiram forces in Theramore, but also trolls, goblins, taurens and even ogres. The Kul'tiran forces didn't stand a chance and Daelin died "as a proud warrior" as Rexxar said. Jaina said with tears in her eyes knowing she betrayed her father "Oh why father, didn't you just listen"... Then in WoW much later in the story you all know the story behind Garrosh and the horde bombing Theramore and this is mainly the reason why Jaina is filled with hate for the horde. Thralls horde together with Rexxar, Rok'han, Vol'jin, Cairne Bloodhoof and many other important characters didn't wish for murder and bloodlust but to keep peace at the shores of Kalimdor.
Thanks for reading!
lurven141 thanks!
thanks!
I respect your efforts, Lurven.
Thanks for the backstory 👍
Which is why her still wanting to destroy the Horde after Garrosh's fall feels weird to me. Either she really was corrupted by the Old Gods or her character development took a weird turn. She should know most of the Horde aren't vicious killers.
Then: I hate resorting to violence.
Now: Not anymore.
Someone: violence is always the last answer
Me: Watch and learn
Violence isnt always the solution... but it is a solution none the less.
I think she still hates it, but is finally willing to do it.
I'm sensing some Khornate vibes here
@@kevinsoler4696 *BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!*
5 years ago. My god. Still one of my favorite pieces of art anywhere
It gives me goosebumps to imagine the Admiral in his final moments thinking "Jaina will not forgive this" in spite of her pacifism
She liked Kael‘thas -Dead
She loved Arthas -Dead
She loved her Father -Dead
She liked Varian -Dead
Her Brother Derek -Dead
Her apprentice Kinndy -Dead
Mentor Antonidas -Dead
People of Theramore -Dead
Poor Jaina, Show them all !!!
She truly lost so much in her life.
She never loved Kael'thas. She respected him as a teacher and fellow mage, but she never had the feels. He did though... kind of sad really.
Don't forget her gnome apprentice, Kinndy
What about kalec?
Dragon fire 1479 and so do thrall
I just want to see one day an animated series of world of warcraft
Agox Gaming Depot **ANIMATED**
They have that lord of the clans thing
Nathan Doehnert they tried the movie and it floop cause most people did not like it but I hope Netflix will make it into a show.
i feel you, bro!
Who
Said the WC movie failed?
The reason why alot of ppl didn't like/understand it was because it was telling the story of WC:1
The very first game
Its either getting a sequel or its going to stay a disappointment in ppl minds
2024 anyone?
Yes.
This was the flame on the candle flickering before it went out. Nothing in Warcraft has made me feel emotion since this.
Quoted from the book "Tides of War", after the goblin aircraft dropped the mana bomb on Garrosh's order,
"The shape looked like a child at first, which was what drew Jaina’s eye. The children had all been evacuated safely. Who-
And then she knew.
Jaina stood, barely breathing, wanting to look away but unable to. Slowly, jerkily, her feet moved, almost of their own accord, taking her to the body.
Kinndy lay face down in a still puddle of her own blood. The crimson stain had tainted her pink hair, matting it, and Jaina realized she wanted to plop Kinndy into a hot bath and help her scrub herself clean, get her a fresh new robe-
She fell to her knees and placed a hand on the girl’s shoulder, to turn her over. Kinndy’s body crumbled into shining violet dust.
Jaina screamed.
She screamed in utter horror, frantically gathering up the crystalline powder that was all that remained of a smart, lively young woman.
She screamed in loss, in grief, in guilt, and then most of all, in rage.
Rage at the Horde. Rage at Garrosh Hellscream, rage at those who followed him. Rage at Baine Bloodhoof, who had warned her but had nonetheless permitted this to happen. Had perhaps known this was going to happen. Her screaming turned to racking, hoarse sobs that ripped her throat. She kept lifting handfuls of the purple sand, trying to hold on to Kinndy, her sobbing increasing as the dust persisted in trickling through her fingers.
This wasn’t war. This wasn’t even murder. This was obliteration, done at a comfortable distance. Killing in the most brutal and cowardly fashion Jaina could conceive of."
UH MUH GUD GORROSH HUUULSCRUM! lol. also i feel really sad... for that gnome.
I will never forget when I read that bit, one of the parts that really stayed with me, and ultimately convinced me Jaina was justified in her rage.
Ka Po Chu While reading the story I was hoping against hope she would follow through and wipe that capital of animals from the map, alas no good deed goes unpunished.
Kefka Palazzo it's just too bad she went from how she was in WC3 to being non-existent in WoW, and then this happened in the books and then they gave her character in WoW. It was such a missed opportunity to have something like this told in a good fashion in game.
Ka Po Chu Baine couldn't have done anything though unless she expected that he was okay with letting Garrosh slaughter his own people. Same with Sylvanas now and the reason as to why Saurfang couldn't stand up to her. They both knew no honor and had no qualms making an example out of the innocent.
I love this song so much. While I'm not a veteran Wow player, I do follow the lore and enjoy the songs. This song always touches me and sends chills down my spine.
wow has some good sore doesnt it
lore*
@@lavagaming1268 yes sure does :) its very interesting so far and there's soooo much
This remains the best thing that the cinematics team has ever put out.
Gave me a chill just like BlizzCon 2007's Lich king trailer!
Kinda looked like Arthas too, when she brought the dead ship to life. :X
Im sorry that will never happen again
Best trailer of anything literally anything ever
Jaina is a dreadlord comfirmed
Not gonna lie, always strikes a chord in me when Jaina's voice quivers when she sings 'because she left his side.' Amazing direction on this, even in the smallest details.
Laura Bailey is so amazing as voice actor for Jaina. Really makes the character.
I'm certain it isn't her actually singing the song. At the start and end it is definitely her.
Of course it's not her in the middle, that's a man singing the rest to and about her
That ending; still get chills from the delivery of the line: ♫Beware....... of Me.♫
It's been almost 2 years now and I cannot stop watching this masterpiece!!!
Daughter of the sea, father who she loved.
Jaina's evolution is gotta be one of the most heartbreaking ones ive ever experienced with a fictional character. The way WC3's moral voice evolved into a warmongering shadow of herself, thirsting for revenge ... hits me like a rock. And the worst part is - I still kind of sympathize with her.
Everyone has a breaking point.
kinda followed Arthas in that way. she is slowly becoming what she once despised.
Her story parallels that of her lover, Arthas, both beloved royalty by their peoples, both committed unthinkable acts with the intention of protecting their people. Also both led to their own fathers' deaths (Arthas more directly but still).
maybe, but i think it is fair to say she went from making rational morally just decisions to warmongering faster than most
Except she's not becoming a monster like Arthas, she was betrayed by those she had attempted to forge a lasting peace with and now seeks to defend her own people from them. Arthas, on the other hand, gave his soul to destroy his enemy, and then slaughtered his own people.
Someone forgot about Sylvanas it seems
So... Who else came back to watch this again after seeing the ship at the Battle for Lordaeron?
Hello I'm Nuggy me! Me! Me!
I'm proud of myself to say that after the cinematic of it I yelled "Beware....of ME!" they appreciated it haha
I can't stop watching it ...
I legit jumped out of my chair and cheered when she showed up on that magical flying pirate ship. Jaina is bae.
I sure did. Gotta grab the old Theramore tabard for questing. FOR THE ALLIANCE!
