For those who don’t know how insanely multi-talented Woodkid is: His real name is Yoann Lemoine from France. He is a movie and video director, a graphics and FX designer, a musician, singer, composer, songwriter and orchestra director. Also a music and artistic director. As a video director, he started his career as an assistant to Sofia Copolla and directed some scenes of the "Marie Antoinette" movie. Then he delivered music videos for the greatests: Lana Del Rey (several), Katy Perry, Harry Styles, Drake, Rihanna, … He also created some visual and graphical masterpieces for his own songs (check the video of his hit "Iron") As a music and artistic director, he collaborated with John Legend, with Lorde, with Pharell Williams (on his megahit Happy !!), and more recently for the new album of the french superstar Mylene Farmer. His songs are a recurrent in Video Games soundtracks (Assassin’s Creed, Dying Light, Granturismo, …) or movies soundtracks (Divergent series, Hunger Games series, Umbrella academy, Ellis, …) He has performed also very beautiful duets with Lana Del Rey, Elle Fanning, Lykke Li, Son Lux, …
Hell yeah, I'm such a huge fan of Woodkid. First heard him on the Assassin's Creed Revelations trailer and immediately went to find out who's music it was. Dude is incredible
Also I think his live performances are so freaking awesome. There's one on UA-cam from few years ago that he orchestrates the whole crowd and they sing a choir together... I wish I can get a chance of seeing him live
When Jayce said "What have we done.", it's like you can hear the fear and horror when the realization struck in. That montage with the wild core coupled by chanting is both beautiful and haunting. Mixed with the fights happening in the vents, the hex cores to the gauntlets and rifle going wild and erratic in resonance to the corruption, pure visual storytelling you'd expect from Arcane.
That doesn't sound like Jayce at all, though. Notice how when Jayce smashes the Hex ball it turns into a butterfly. A butterfly effect! I think that sequence has something to do with time travel or alternate reality because that voice line sounds so off
To me it doesn't sound like Jayce tho. He also doesn't talk in that moment, so it would need to be some kind of internal thought, something the show doesn't really do at all. I think the voice sounds kind of similar to how the distortion in Viktors voice sounds, so I think the voice has another origin, maybe it's even directly linked to Viktor somehow.
I feel so bad for Jayce. These three episodes alone have seen pretty much every facet of his dreams and hopes dismantled. Using hextech for good and not harm: gone. Using it to better the world: it's possibly destabilizing everything. Saving his best friend: Viktor doesn't even want to speak with him anymore. My guy's been through it.
You could say this song is about a battle between sisters but really it’s about Jayce. “You summon storms and play with nature” that’s Jayce throughout the course of the series to now. He’s played with nature, experimented with things that he doesn’t fully understand, and now he sees what has come of it. Him researching Hex-Tech lead to him making the Hex-crystals, which lead to Powder finding them and becoming Jinx. Which is why there is so much focus on the transitions between Jayce’s terror and the sisters fighting. None of this might not be happening if he hadn’t researched Hex-Tech and “played with nature”. You could also say this song is about him and Viktor, hence Jayce saying “What have we done.” Great song, you could look at it in many different ways.
@@candygoteaten5415Not really saying he’s at fault, his character is my favourite, but it’s interesting to see just how important Jayce is to the story when you really think about it.
I liked how Vi & Cait couldn't comprehend reality warping around them, but Jinx didn't even notice it because her sense of reality was warped from the beginning.
@@Yokaisenn Caitlyn used it to her advantage too. She didn't understand what was going on precisely, but she very quickly determined that the haywire hextech in her rifle could seriously hurt Sevika, so she pressed her rifle into Sevika and won a losing battle of strength that way.
@@TheSlayerOfTranzit Janna was portrayed on the circular door at the bottom where they fought and Janna is a shuriman spirit that zaunites worship for clean air
before zaun and piltover existed it was a shuriman port city, janna was prayed to for strong winds but now with no worshippers she can barely manage a gust
Holy Fuck, the fight sequence. Interspersed with Jayce's revelation... so much emotion. The cinematography and music. Absolutely cooked with episode and music.

I ironicly said that The biggest plot twist of the first season of Arcane is The fact that Wander was Just someone who died in the third episode in response of a theory that said that he was Warwick. I am so excited to see Warwick in Arcane
@@dublagensdeadrenalina3616 based on the preview, it's still a pre-warwick/Vander hybrid. His face is still very human shape unlike in the game. Warwick's full transformation isn't completed yet it seems. Or maybe he does fully transform into Warwick mid fight during a fullmoon or something.
@@DjuraValtrWarwick is a chimera, the moon has nothing to deal with him, it could be done for theatrical purposes but if he transforms during a fight, what's responsible are all the drugs Singed injected in him
I like how everyone is trying to generate unique solutions to the problems between Piltover and Zaun. Then they collide and create more problems. It will be interesting to see General Caitlyn invade Zaun, will Warwick kill those who are hurt others as his lore used to suggest? How will Victor and his new arcane cybernetic people fit in? Wtf is going on with the Heimer/Jayce/Ekko arc? Are we going to see void creatures?
They literally go all out on everything in this series. Visuals, writing, voice acting, character development and the music. Sucks that this is the last season but knowing this series, it'll end on a high note.
Best sequence in the whole show. I LOVE how they managed to seamlessly bring seperate events and delicately coalesce them together to create a single sequence; underpinned by this majestic piece that completely kicks all your senses into overdrive. The level of immersion this all creates is a drug bruh, I love art and the humans that make it possible GRAHHHHH.
@@Spherrum Perhaps. But then again, so was Jinx firing the rocket at the Council right as a unanimous vote in favor of peaceful separation was achieved. Sometimes, things just work better when coincidences line up just right for maximum dramatic effect.
They do NOT miss with the music in this show. This scene was a masterpiece in every regard (I am obsessed with the transition of Jinx leaping into the air with Fishbones)

This fight was insane. Flashing between two different scenes. Watching the two sisters finally letting go of the fear between them and going head to head was awesome to watch!
Spoilers: This scene was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. From the weapons glitching out, to the swapped perspectives, from the jojo references(lol), and the emotions. This was beautifully choreographed and I did not want to miss a single detail of what was happening. If there was a word I could think of better than masterpiece, I would not hesitate to use it.
My interpretation of the song is very simple: The one singing the song is Arcane himself. He is warning them that if they continue using their strength to make hextech and weaponry, everything will go to shit. That's why the weapons glitch and because of Jayce he realizes his mistake.
The scene where this played was peak and why animation needs to be respected. The intense animation, the emotions, and this song are truly glorious, and I dare live action to just try to capture the magic it invoked.
Both mediums have their own merits. That Arcane scene was really well made though. While not in the same vein in terms of the context of the scene I think some live-action shows have some really crazy cinematography. Shows ranging from Severance, Mr. Robot, Dark, Maniac, Twin Peaks, etc In terms of movies, Blade Runner 2049, Mad Max Fury Road, Enter the Void, etc
If I had a nickel for each time Woodkid absolutely killed it for a scene in Arcane, I would have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but I'm sure glad it happened twice.
the visuals alone of the hextech corrupting was very chilling, and then the choir in this just knocks it out of the park. after this and guns for hire i have to start listening to this guy. can’t wait for more…
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SONG TO DROP SINCE THE S2 TEASER TRAILER, FINALLY!!! 😭😭😭🙏 THE WHOLE THING SOUNDS DIVINE, ESPECIALLY THE CHANTING and I'm *so* glad it's not just a small segment and there's so much more to it 😭❤🔥
How nice it feels seeing that Arcane S2 is not disapointing 😎 and I was right about something: Vi and Jinx can hurt each other, but they cannot kill each other.
I like how the song was sad and not badass…reminded me of score in Avatar The Last Airbender when Zuko fought Azula..both of them had to fight the siblings.
This is the best comparison I have ever seen. In my opinion, ATLA and Arcane are two amazing shows that are on the same level of greatness in terms of storytelling and how they write their characters.
VI is the undisputed champ of throwing hands. But can we all agree Jinx with her shimmer upgrade was lowkey giving VI the work. VI certainly didn’t have as much rage toward Jinx as Jinx had towards her. So needless to say her heart wasn't in it, but still for a range fighter she was woopin ass right before she got her finger shot off.
What's funny is that the Arcane itself actually seems to agree with him, if you read the lyrics as coming from it, which makes by far the most sense imo, you can hear how DISGUSTED it is that it has been used in this way
SPOILERS I like how this song has a double meaning: not only is it illustrating the rift between Jinx and Vi but also Jayce's realization that he's been messing with forces beyond his control (The Arcane).
In fact, i fucking love how in the very instant he realizes what was done its first instinct is destroy that "thing". No thinking, not trying to "i can manage this power".
And it usually has the choir when we're back to Jayce, which is awesomely a prayer to Janna. (From Description) Shuriman chant translated from an old prayer to the goddess Jan’ahrem: Beyond these walls, the storm's fury grows Over land and sea, the storm's fury grows But I have nothing to fear! For the blue bird is with me
@@scarletsblood8510 There's another meaning here. Janna is the goddess of Zaun, bringing good winds to sailors in the old days while appearing as a blue bird. Jinx will take on the responsibility and finally be the hero Zaun needs, bringing a "storm" to Piltover and the Noxians. She will be the blue bird.
Man, I was totally speechless during this part of the third ep, couldn't stop smiling from the amount of craziness that I was seeing on my screen. That was definitely PEAK, can’t wait to see other episodes

Imagine take LSD and watching that scene
JUST WATCHED ALL 3 EPS.. WOW THIS IS GOING TO BE A RIDE.. VI AND JNX AND VICK MY GOD EPIC
Welcome my fellow glorious evolved
This is art...The entire show is just art.
My interpretation of the song is very simple: The one singing the song is Arcane himself. He is warning them that if they continue using their strength to make hextech and weaponry, everything will go to shit. That's why the weapons glitch and because of Jayce he realizes his mistake.
The scene where this played was peak and why animation needs to be respected. The intense animation, the emotions, and this song are truly glorious, and I dare live action to just try to capture the magic it invoked.
The kaleidoscopic distortion effect works way better in Arcane than it did in Doctor Strange.
Both mediums have their own merits. That Arcane scene was really well made though.
While not in the same vein in terms of the context of the scene
I think some live-action shows have some really crazy cinematography. Shows ranging from Severance, Mr. Robot, Dark, Maniac, Twin Peaks, etc
In terms of movies, Blade Runner 2049, Mad Max Fury Road, Enter the Void, etc
If I had a nickel for each time Woodkid absolutely killed it for a scene in Arcane, I would have 2 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but I'm sure glad it happened twice.
Damn Nicky Quote...
I was so happy when I saw the names of the artists for this season because I knew it would be great
I get that reference lol the 2 nickels one lol
You said it lad.
That Fight scene with this Music was Absolute Cinema! Wish I could Forward time to Nov 16 for Act 2
I can’t imagine what’s going to happen in act 2
@@Wolfking99-x4r for real u can't 😅
dude act 1 already gave us so much im not sure if im ready for the rest yet
Fuck the 16th, I wanna go straight to the 23rd!!!
Nice pfp, cupcake
SHOW OF THE YEAR
I swear Arcane has some of the best bangers of all time
From Assassin's Creed: Revelation trailer to Arcane, Woodkid has been nothing short of Legendary
wait assassin creed? that was woodkid too?
@@kravenite they're also in unity
@@kravenite Yep.
i started being his fan since I saw that AC Revelations Trailer years ago, man I absolutely love woodkid
AC Revelantions is maybe my favorite trailer of all times bcs of him, Woodkid is a legend.
Woodkid performance is insane in this song... First is Gun For Hire and now this??? Don't even get me started on the choir bro
U like ? It’s French 😅
the visuals alone of the hextech corrupting was very chilling, and then the choir in this just knocks it out of the park. after this and guns for hire i have to start listening to this guy. can’t wait for more…
2:20 INSANE🔥🔥🔥🔥
Woodkid knew exactly that he cooked a Masterpiece
1:31 Goosebumps!!
Fr
The shot is a callback to Season 1's intro right before the title card hits.
PEAK CINEMA.
Yeah bhro, everyone realized that. Dont feel special
@Spid4r1 The fuck?
@@Spid4r1chill bruh
@@Spid4r1 i didn't. Pipe down
@@Spid4r1you must be so fun at parties
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SONG TO DROP SINCE THE S2 TEASER TRAILER, FINALLY!!! 😭😭😭🙏 THE WHOLE THING SOUNDS DIVINE, ESPECIALLY THE CHANTING and I'm *so* glad it's not just a small segment and there's so much more to it 😭❤🔥
@@kaleena2073 literally same the chanting scratched the best itch in my brain
Same the chant makes me ascend to heaven
Same💔💔💔
@@JuniorHunter-js7qlthis guy gets it
Still, there's a part missing. If you listen to the trailer that was dropped months ago, there's a choir part that is not included in this version.
This song makes me levitate and ready for a war at the same time
dammit guys im addicted with arcane, i have rewatched the seasons 1 & 2 13 times now, i think we need another 10 seasons for this series
bro relax
The way he sings "soul" at 3:01 is so gorgeous
How nice it feels seeing that Arcane S2 is not disapointing 😎 and I was right about something: Vi and Jinx can hurt each other, but they cannot kill each other.
Wtf are you talking about vi was going to kill jinx before the kid got in the way
@theislander4310 She hesitated, and then stopped Cait. Watch it again 😉
@@SeaWave2022she stopped Kait cause she could have hit the kid
Vi and Jinx are batman and the Joker
@@theislander4310she could just push the child away if she wanted to do it, she was clearly conflicted and found an excuse
I like how the song was sad and not badass…reminded me of score in Avatar The Last Airbender when Zuko fought Azula..both of them had to fight the siblings.
and both are masterpieces
This is the best comparison I have ever seen. In my opinion, ATLA and Arcane are two amazing shows that are on the same level of greatness in terms of storytelling and how they write their characters.
THE SCENE... THE MUSIC JUST SO MIND-BLOWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My god, why cant more animations do this, hust the sheer brutality of the fight and lining perfect with an immense epic score, it was... perfect
Woodkid has such a beautiful and somber voice--perfect for such a climactic and haunting scene.
This 3rd episode was INSANE 🤩
Woodkid voice just makes any song carry so much meaning and it flowed so perfectly and elevated that fight scene so much and it blew me away
VI is the undisputed champ of throwing hands. But can we all agree Jinx with her shimmer upgrade was lowkey giving VI the work. VI certainly didn’t have as much rage toward Jinx as Jinx had towards her. So needless to say her heart wasn't in it, but still for a range fighter she was woopin ass right before she got her finger shot off.
Yeah I didn't expect Jinx would go toe to toe with Vi in close quarters. It was amazing tho.
Heimerdinger predicted everything in part 1, the Arcane is DANGEROUS
But the people using it are even more.
What's funny is that the Arcane itself actually seems to agree with him, if you read the lyrics as coming from it, which makes by far the most sense imo, you can hear how DISGUSTED it is that it has been used in this way
God, the way this song _perfectly_ reflects the desperate, frantic, violent tragedy that is Arcane is just astounding!
We are witnessing peak animated television
that fight was absolute cinema
Yeah. I wonder what would have happened if Caitlyn hadn't interrupted the sisters.
I'm so excited they brought Woodkid back for S2!
Guns for Hire is easily my favorite song from S1, and it introduced me to his other incredible music
The choir and drums feel so beautifully primal, Woodkid made so cold a song, it gives frostbites.
SPOILERS
I like how this song has a double meaning: not only is it illustrating the rift between Jinx and Vi but also Jayce's realization that he's been messing with forces beyond his control (The Arcane).
Jayce: What... have we done...
In fact, i fucking love how in the very instant he realizes what was done its first instinct is destroy that "thing". No thinking, not trying to "i can manage this power".
@@MolotovKiller Jayce: Vik was right. i should've destroyed the Hexcore...
And it usually has the choir when we're back to Jayce, which is awesomely a prayer to Janna.
(From Description) Shuriman chant translated from an old prayer to the goddess Jan’ahrem:
Beyond these walls, the storm's fury grows
Over land and sea, the storm's fury grows
But I have nothing to fear!
For the blue bird is with me
@@scarletsblood8510 There's another meaning here.
Janna is the goddess of Zaun, bringing good winds to sailors in the old days while appearing as a blue bird.
Jinx will take on the responsibility and finally be the hero Zaun needs, bringing a "storm" to Piltover and the Noxians. She will be the blue bird.
12 episodes out. Already one of the best to have been done.
_This is how you create art. And it comes from France._
Act 1 was insanely good, my expectations were high and I'm very happy that they're being surpassed!
my man went from sadness in arcane 1 to a dune type ahh song in season 2
and i love it
This song + fight scene = absolute cinema👌🏻
fight scene literally insane
3:08 literal chills
Yep
Round of an applause for whoever made this show possible 👏👏👏
Man, I was totally speechless during this part of the third ep, couldn't stop smiling from the amount of craziness that I was seeing on my screen. That was definitely PEAK, can’t wait to see other episodes
WOODKID and ARCANE are certified bangers
Riot games music never disappoint you and that's a fact
Between this and “kiss your perfect day goodbye” Woodkid is an Arcane icon!!
Literal chills when I watched that scene, the visual and audio team of Riot truly never disappoints!
3.600.000 views in 9 days. Amazing
Was hooked on this song since first trailer, but in EP3 sequence with that was ABSOLUTE CINEMA!
Yeeeeeessss finally my favorite chanting from Arcane S2
It's a lot more eerie than in the trailer😭
@@miabellaperez3367WHICH MAKES IT EVEN BETTER
Just finished the first 3 épisodes this was absolute masterclass thanks you so much
Dude... Just wow!
This goes exactly as hard as it should.
JUST FINISHED ACT ONE IM SCREAMING AND CRYING AND THROWING UP
edit: do not read the replies without seeing act 1 first as someone did spoil something big and I'm probably going to continue to spoil in my comments replies so I can rave w others who finished act 1 :)
Act one is amazing
VIKTOR IS JESUS, CAITLYN IS A VILLAIN, AND MEL IS MAGIC. THIS IS WILD.
