Fun fact: All TF2 music is composed by Mike Morasky, who also did the music for Portal (1&2), Left 4 Dead (1&2), Counter Strike: GO and more. He also has as a digital artist on Pirates on the Caribbean and Lord of the Rings. Looks like a brilliant fellow.
@@LionmightOfficial The TF2 short films are great for their extremely good character dialogue, the music for them is definitely better listened to on its own, but the videos are absolutely worth a watch
@@LionmightOfficial I understand you choose to focus on the music because that's what you're most passionate about, but I don't get why you're so against the notion of watching a couple of short videos on UA-cam after you're done listening to the soundtrack. They really won't take much of your time and they are pretty funny and entertaining on their own. I respect your decision, I'm just a little confused about your reasoning.
I always found the song to be scary. Source engine games can make me crap myself, and hearing this on a low quality pc would be genuinely terrifying, alone. But his remix makes it sound cool, and gives a positive "sorry" vibe, like you said. Doesn't make me scared at all.
And this is why I love Right Behind You as a song. Because not only is it a minimalistic song, if you add an instrument of almost any type and play along with it, it completely changes the tone of it. Edit: Tone, not tune
I Love how at 8:10 he unknowingly just perfectly describes the „meet the spy“ video. That shows how well the composers of the tf2 ost nailed their works, if a man, that never had heard or seen the music/video before, can deduce the corresponding situation so well, by only listening and feeling the music. Amazing.
I'll never get tired of how well each mercenary's theme represents them so well, but especially More Gun for engie. Like he said in the video, it starts in that major key and sounds like the pleasant backdrop to someone doing normal, mundane tasks, but then the shift happens and suddenly it sounds *dangerous*. not in the sense that something has changed or that a new threat has been introduced, but in the way like a shroud has been pulled back and you're forced to acknowledge the danger has been there all along. just like engie
I love how this dude's eyes always pop open when he hears the music for the first time; the TF2 soundtrack is truly something special and seeing someone as experienced in the art have such a genuine reaction is sweet
I can never listen to “Right behind you” and not hear the conversation “He could be in this very room, he could be you, he could be me, he could even be-“
I really do love how 9:58-11:22 is just one long piece of pure vibing. Really awesome to see him just getting creative with the minimalist repetition of Right Behind You, and adding to it so masterfully. I would legit listen to a whole version of Right Behind You with a violin or cello accompanying it.
To be completely honest. Most of the time I don’t much care for the violin bits. I understand that he’s putting his own touch on the piece and I give him props for that, it just isn’t usually for me. However this one in particular jives so perfectly with the song that I was honestly very impressed. Good on ya String player man.
İf you are going to react to more tf2 ost i suggest you these 3: -Intruder Alert -Saxton's Dilemma -It Hates Me So Much! Btw more gun theme's versions are technically the same with more sound effects like crickets and train sounds etc.
"Right Behind You" is such a beautiful yet horrifying tune, it makes me want to cry and run for my life at the same time. It messes with my head and I love it.
You want to run, but you feel something small against you back the entire time. Every time you spin around there is nothing. A creeping sense of loosing time make you continue running as you were before, only for the prickle against your back to return.
You are the best music reaction channel out there, keep up the amazing work! I personally would LOVE to hear you react to Deep Rock Galactic's soundtrack, both volume 1 and 2. It is very synth heavy, and I have a feeling you're going to like it;)
Hell yes more TF2! Would love to see you cover more of the soundtrack! Also, HIGHLY recommend the "Meet The Team" video animations on youtube to hear a lot of the music in action! Plus, they're hilarious and iconic, I'm sure youll get a kick out of them.
Seconded. Though SPG did say that he prefers to listen to game OSTs without any context, I still think it could be fun for him to watch the Meet the Team trailers, perhaps after he's already heard the music in them blind.
I feel like your commentary on Spy's theme is spot on. His theme was released with the Spy's cinematic and I feel like there is four distinct acts in it which I call or refer to as 1.)Infiltration 2.)First victims discovered 3.)Fear and paranoia and finally 4.)Being hunted
For context with more gun, the electric guitar kicks in when the engineer shifts from cheerful southerner to guy who has invented stuff specifically to kill people
To be specific, those "stuff" would be Sentries, upgradable heavy-duty turrets with dual rotary machine guns and a mounted quad-rocket launcher. Aka, "more gun".
All of these soundtracks directly follow the story of their respective original ‘meet the team’ promotional animated short. They did one for each of the 9 classes. Would be a blast once you listened to them all for you to watch and react to these animations. They’re all on UA-cam, and absolute classics.
The Sonic CD Japanese Soundtrack is one of my personal favorites. It combines Fusion, electronic, disco, funk and so many more. I've never heard a soundtrack replicate its diverse and varied style. Each stage has 4 versions of the stages theme representing the Past, Present, Good future and Bad future. And man, every single song just hits with such energy and style you have to check it out.
One of my favorite soundtracks of all time. I would love if the Metallic Madness variations got reviewed in particular. The parallels between the Bad Future Mix and the Good Future Mix are so good.
When speaking of Orchestral soundtracks I think one of the most overlooked ones is Rabbids Go Home. The Band they chose was absolutely perfect for the games chaotic nature. Some especially good ones here are Ciocarlia, Bubamara and Bãtutã din Moldova
Bãtutã din Moldova even has a connection to TF2 through the old TF2 video "The Vicious Cycle of 2Fort". That's actually where I first heard the Rabbids Go Home soundtrack
@@Clusterisdoingstuff You were faster than me, then! It took me more like 30 minutes or so. The reason I had early access is because I'm a member of his UA-cam channel, which means I pay a little bit to support his content. He shows his thanks for that by giving members early access as well as some additional member-only content. 😊Congrats on spotting the video so quickly!! You must have been close to first once the video went completely live!
@@LionmightOfficial Could you listen to solider of dance and then afterward watch the dance that goes with it please. Also could listen to the remix by metal fortress as well thanks
I love that, at least in every video that i seen so far, he starts playing along on his violin to the song. He gets so enveloped into the flow of songs in the way that provides such a lovely spin on things.
Amazing video, you really nailed the vibe of those songs. So why "more gun" turns sinister is because the engineer (that song is his theme) while being a southern gentleman is still a stone cold killer. Hes polite, hes brilliant, but hes here to kill for money. That why his character is so fun. You'd never know he had that side to him until it was far too late. Also I would love to hear a purely electric violin tribute to these songs, a greatest hits if you will. I think it would be so cool.
So glad you're listening to more TF2 music, it's one of my favourite OSTs and your descriptions and analysations were almost spot-on, although 'Drunken Pipe Bomb' is themed around an (alcoholic) Scottish person, instead of Irish. But the other two you were entirely correct on which is really impressive considering you've only listened to the OST!
you can see how they manage to tell what a character does just by producing themes for them, like spy's theme he said something about "stealth" and in demo's theme he says something about an irish dude getting into a bar fight, i believe that's something demoman would 100% do lmao
The music title names do give it away. I mean the music also do. but it kinda influence the outcome reading the title of a music track when it contains hint.
@@TheDiner50Yeah but yo need to know at least the basics of each class to get that, i don't think he knows. Which is good so he can draw from JUST the music with no game/lore knowledge to interfere with his interpretation.
You got the vibe for each song pretty much perfectly for every one. Each one is from one of the classes' "Meet the Team" videos, where you're introduced to the class's playstyle and general personality. Drunken Pipe Bomb plays during the action sequences of Demoman's "Meet the Team" video. He's a laughing, drunken, Scottish (not Irish, but close enough) explosive class, lobbing bombs around and laying Stickybomb traps. But he's also more tactical than you'd think. The crescendo happens when he leads the enemy team into a big sticky trap he's laid out, and gives a taunting salute as they all blow up. Right Behind You is from the Spy's "Meet the Team" video. That one is more of a horror/thriller style (with plenty of humor, of course,) cutting back and forth between the enemy Spy sneaking through the base eliminating people one by one, and the remaining team members guarding the intelligence briefcase, deliberating over how to deal with the enemy Spy (and killing their allied Spy out of paranoia,) before the big reveal that one of them _was_ the enemy Spy the entire time. More Gun is from Engineer's "Meet the Team" video. It opens with him strumming his guitar, sitting in front of a fire, casually talking to the viewer about what being an Engie means, while gunfire periodically interjects. The threatening tone change happens when the camera pans out, revealing the many different automated Sentry Guns all around him, gunning down enemies trying to approach. So you weren't completely off the mark with the Western gun draw thing.
I listen to these soundtracks for years (and not only in-game), and yet you made me rediscover, hear things I didn't before, in the whole album, so big thank you for that !!
Awesome stuff! A lot of these music can be found through the 'Meet the Team' videos on UA-cam in case you want the imagery with it. It’s so cool that despite the different directions the musics take like Scottish back pipes or the western guitar, it stays true to the Spy Movie style you talked about. If you ever want more of these, the next ones are: - Mercenary Park - It hates me so much - Intruder Alert - Faster than a Speeding Bullet And then some: - Dapper Cadaver - Soldier of Dance - Seduce Me! - A little Heart to Heart Love your videos and remixes! Good stuff 🤌 (By the way, little tidbit, the theme for the sniper is straight up just the music of Magnum Force, the movie, not even remixed at all, just the same, so you don’t need to check it out if you already know it)
you gotta love the pure joy that he feels when he is listening to the music, honestly emulates my feeling when im listening as well. love this channel! also you violin for right behind you sound fucking amazing!
YES I saw your first video and I couldn’t wait for more! Something I wish people would react to is the old Call of Duty soundtracks thought like old Modern Warfare 2, that music gets me motivated like nothing before.
"Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems, not problems like "What is beauty?" Because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems, for instance: how am I going to stop some mean mother Hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new be-hind? The answer, use a gun, and if that don't work... Use more gun. Take for instance this heavy caliber tripod mounted lil' old number designed by me, built by me, and you best hope... it's not pointed at you."
I closed my eyes and just listened to your addition onto "Right Behind You". I love the flair that you put onto it. Its like a tale ive never heard, but is somehow even better. Thank you for covering this, and improving upon perfection. 👍
'More Gun' is the theme of the Engineer, a seemingly sane man, and inarguably the most intelligent merc, but he is just as nuts as everyone else, 11 PHDs but still insane
If you did team fortress again, I'd love if you gave your thoughts on what you imagine the scenario of the track is, and then watch the trailers in which they happen. I loved your thoughts on More Gun and Right Behind you, and it'd be neat if you then saw what they were actually used for, and how close you were!
@@LionmightOfficialthank you for these videos, it's great to see your thoughts and ideas from these soundtracks because it's one of the best parts of tf2 imo
15:12 Absolutely beautifully said. I paused the video, explained how I felt about about the piece, and then playing it again.. we both came to the conclusion that its all interpretation and imagery based upon how we feel creating imagination. I need to make this my career. I love it too much.
The game is timeless, the music is great, and the community is amazing. Nothing will stop the community from growing, and every part if the community helps bring everything together. Gameplay, weapons, maps, gamemodes, music. Everything. We love the game for the things that the game is.
More please! Rocket jump waltz is my personal favorite piece from TF2/Orange box games. I loved the way you added to each piece with some personal flair. Great video
If you're looking for a new VST to listen to, Hi-Fi Rush came out earlier this year and has sooo many good songs. It's chock-full of nice spins on the rock genre that never manages to bore, and each song is so intoxicatingly enjoyable. Favourite VST of all time, and I think you'd really enjoy it!
I kind of adore that both the medic and engineer essentially have two halves each to their theme music, where the first half is all quaint and unassuming and then the second half hits the most intense spike in tone imaginable. The same way medic and engie themselves are kind of quaint, cute, unintimidating classes in-game until given time to fully set up the tools that make them truly scary, i.e medic's ubercharge and engie's level 3 buildings. Music tying to the game design in little ways like that is just so rad.
Almost every single song you've listened to is from the "Meet The" character animations valve made for every character. For "Right Behind You" plays during "Meet The Spy" and is honestly my favorite one just because of this song lining up so well with the animation.
So glad you checked this out. It's a real treat to see someone find the TF2 soundtrack, for how wacky and wild it is. If you've got the spare time, you should watch the Meet the Team videos, which actually use the music pieces from the soundtrack in them.
That violin take you had on right behind you was probably one of the most beautiful pieces of music i have ever heard, itd be amazing isolated to just sit and listen it
I love this game like a love a person from my past. The mercs, their themes, the gameplay, my old crew that I played with. It was a different time in my life that I really miss. Thank you for reminding me. I’ve shed a few tears watching these videos. I hope you do some more.
I really like the sudden twist in More Gun, really shows you that no matter how calm and sensible Engineer seems, he's still as insane as every other mercenary
These are very unique reactions man, one of my favourite parts is the analisis of each song, comparing the songs with the knowledge you have about music like in here with all of the minimalist style of composition. It gives so much more to these types of videos that someone knows what they are talking about
sound tracks from the Touhou project series are over the top amazing. You just have to listen to some if you haven't yet. some that I recommend would be Septette For a Dead Princess, Hiroari Shoots a Strange Bird, Gensokyo Millennium, and Satori Maiden.
I agree with you on only reacting to the music the first time around, although I think it would be quite fun to go back once you've finished the full sound track and watch some of the videos associated with the music and see how close you got to the "intended context". It also a treat to hear the songs on there own the videos unintentionally cover up the subtitles of the music
Your improv for "Right Behind You" was awesome, you're very talented, thank you for sharing that talent with us! Edit: Should have waited to comment, the one for more gun was brilliant as well!
The violin alongside Right Behind You was absolutely perfect. You totally nailed the feel of the song, and your addition to the song was incredibly fitting whilst not falling into the pitfall of other covers where they end up taking the focus from the original song. Your version added the perfect, terrifying element and complimented the original piece wonderfully. Sent chills down my spine. It's been 12 years since I first played TF2 and that brought me back to the first time I ever heard that song all those years ago, the tension and suspense that song brings. TF2 has one of the best, if not the best, soundtracks in all of gaming.
You really can't put the TF2 soundtrack behind you without listening & reacting to The Calm. It's one of those songs that starts out with a strong theme and then does a 90 degree turn into something very different. It's one of my favourite songs on the album.
I'm just gonna throw this out there, Idk if you take suggestions but you should listen to the 3 main songs of Rebel Cops: "Rebel Cops", "Listen Up" and "At Ease"
Hey SPG loved the reaction ! If you're looking for more video game osts, I can suggest you some amazing osts from Enter The Gungeon! You should defenitly look for those first : "Lead Lord Keep", "Boss Battle Beating" and "Enter the Gungeon"
Great reaction, love how you add on to the music yourself after giving your thoughts. For other games, Disco Elysium personally has an astounding soundtrack, would highly recommend a listen!
15:00 - Fun fact: IT IS IT TOTALLY IS If you want the context for this music, watch the "Meet the engineer" short made by valve and you will get why i say this
there's a hidden gem of a game, Starlink: Battle For Atlas, but has been somewhat forgotten by most people. if you were to listen to the OST, my favourites are Primed For Battle, The Warden Harvest and The Dreadnought
I've seen this video so many times and i still enjoy the parts of your violin. Especially the right behind you one with the violin. I can imagine having a choir as extra singing dies irae
Love that you're checking out TF2's soundtrack, the songs totally bang. There is another game series that I love as well that also has a killer and banging soundtrack, and it's the Yakuza/Ryu Ga Gotoku series (as well as its spinoffs Judgment, Lost Judgment etc.). It's unreal how each game in the series and its spinoffs has a phenomenal soundtrack and I'd love for you to give them a listen.
Your tf2 videos make me tear because tf2 is my childhood and reminds me the magic that I felt when I watched tf2 meet the team videos and when I played for first time the game, thank you!
When you're finished with the soundtrack, would you do a reaction of all the Meet the Team videos? It'd be nice to watch you hear how the songs are used, and see the characters and scenarios the music was composed for.
16:27 on reminds me of as a California Kid taking care of rescue animals as part of an after school program I joined and it makes me happy beyond belief...
I still love that the music captures the character’s personalities so well that even someone who’s never heard of or seen TF2 would probably be able to immediately understand what they’re like by just listening to their theme songs Side note: if you haven’t already, can you please try reacting to some Touhou songs or even the remixes since some of them are as good if not better than the originals
Hey man, could u do "crypt of the necrodancer" ? It's a great rhythm game and I would especially recommend the songs, mausoleum mash and six feet thunder

Yeah it's crazy cuz we invented good music like 3 days ago
I can’t imagine what life was like 3 days ago before good music was invented.
Not only music, the core design of the game is genius.... MEDIC!
His violin addition to Right Behind You makes it sound so much more sorrowful, like it's got such a "I have to do this. I'm sorry." Kind of vibe.
I always found the song to be scary. Source engine games can make me crap myself, and hearing this on a low quality pc would be genuinely terrifying, alone. But his remix makes it sound cool, and gives a positive "sorry" vibe, like you said. Doesn't make me scared at all.

And this is why I love Right Behind You as a song. Because not only is it a minimalistic song, if you add an instrument of almost any type and play along with it, it completely changes the tone of it.

I feel like what also helped is seeing the title of the song which can help set the field for our imagination
Same with meet the demo. There is an irishman(Well scottish so i guess that was wrong), he meets some people and then fight ensues.
He was also really close with More gun
wait till he sees the songs with the meet the videos :D

İf you are going to react to more tf2 ost i suggest you these 3:
-Intruder Alert
-Saxton's Dilemma
-It Hates Me So Much!
Btw more gun theme's versions are technically the same with more sound effects like crickets and train sounds etc.
Nah he gotta start off with It Hates Me So Much! it's to good!
Also "Seduce Me!" one of top notch imo, would really like to see this one
i know it aint a original one but "The Millionaire's Holiday" lives rent free in my mind
it hates me so much is by far my favorite song in the entire ost and it aint even close
Mercenary Park is like a modern, more chaotic version of the tf2 theme. Would be cool if he compared the two.
Your accompaniment with the electric violin always gives me goosebumps!
The Soundtrack of Outer Wilds is also really worth listening to.

I feel like your commentary on Spy's theme is spot on. His theme was released with the Spy's cinematic and I feel like there is four distinct acts in it which I call or refer to as 1.)Infiltration 2.)First victims discovered 3.)Fear and paranoia and finally 4.)Being hunted
For context with more gun, the electric guitar kicks in when the engineer shifts from cheerful southerner to guy who has invented stuff specifically to kill people
To be specific, those "stuff" would be Sentries, upgradable heavy-duty turrets with dual rotary machine guns and a mounted quad-rocket launcher. Aka, "more gun".
While guarding a truckload of stolen enemy intel cases all by his lonesome to boot
to be more accurate,he's from Texas.
All of these soundtracks directly follow the story of their respective original ‘meet the team’ promotional animated short. They did one for each of the 9 classes.
Would be a blast once you listened to them all for you to watch and react to these animations. They’re all on UA-cam, and absolute classics.
except the heavy
Don't forget "Meet the Sandvich".
@@Invenciblemario heavy's is the tf2 theme afaik
I like how at the start of "More Gun" I was also swaying side to side and when I look over to the screen I was in sync with SPG
4:06 well the Demoman (for whom this Soundtrack was used to introduce in "Meet the Demoman") is scottish
The Sonic CD Japanese Soundtrack is one of my personal favorites.
It combines Fusion, electronic, disco, funk and so many more. I've never heard a soundtrack replicate its diverse and varied style.
Each stage has 4 versions of the stages theme representing the Past, Present, Good future and Bad future.
And man, every single song just hits with such energy and style you have to check it out.
One of my favorite soundtracks of all time. I would love if the Metallic Madness variations got reviewed in particular. The parallels between the Bad Future Mix and the Good Future Mix are so good.
Yes ! I'm trying to hype Sonic Mania ost since the pizza tower video lol, holding up to the dream
Collision Chaos from CD is such a banger
Oh, I prefer the US Soundtrack
I really like Final Fever (JP) it's too good for what the final boss is
@@GameFreak64101both are good‼️
One of my favorite TF2 songs is "The Calm." I'd highly recommend you listen to it if you make another one of these!
Dude if he liked More Gun he would love The Calm
Your addition to right behind you is great, and you had the scenario spot on
When speaking of Orchestral soundtracks I think one of the most overlooked ones is Rabbids Go Home.
The Band they chose was absolutely perfect for the games chaotic nature.
Some especially good ones here are Ciocarlia, Bubamara and Bãtutã din Moldova
Even though much of Rabbids Go Home soundtrack are covers, the brass in them is just perfect
Bãtutã din Moldova even has a connection to TF2 through the old TF2 video "The Vicious Cycle of 2Fort". That's actually where I first heard the Rabbids Go Home soundtrack
IrishPlayerGamer! FiddlePlayerGamer! Haha such unique stuff, and a great talk on minimalism!
Thank you so much RG! I love when all my musical heroes make a cameo in these videos! Philip Glass is definitely among the top!
@@Clusterisdoingstuff You were faster than me, then! It took me more like 30 minutes or so. The reason I had early access is because I'm a member of his UA-cam channel, which means I pay a little bit to support his content. He shows his thanks for that by giving members early access as well as some additional member-only content. 😊Congrats on spotting the video so quickly!! You must have been close to first once the video went completely live!
@@LionmightOfficial Could you listen to solider of dance and then afterward watch the dance that goes with it please. Also could listen to the remix by metal fortress as well thanks
I love that, at least in every video that i seen so far, he starts playing along on his violin to the song. He gets so enveloped into the flow of songs in the way that provides such a lovely spin on things.
5:24 "he could be in this very room"
"He could be you"
He could be me
He could even be "shotgun shot"
"WOAH WOAH WOAH"
What? It was obvious, he's the red spy
Amazing video, you really nailed the vibe of those songs. So why "more gun" turns sinister is because the engineer (that song is his theme) while being a southern gentleman is still a stone cold killer. Hes polite, hes brilliant, but hes here to kill for money. That why his character is so fun. You'd never know he had that side to him until it was far too late. Also I would love to hear a purely electric violin tribute to these songs, a greatest hits if you will. I think it would be so cool.
So glad you're listening to more TF2 music, it's one of my favourite OSTs and your descriptions and analysations were almost spot-on, although 'Drunken Pipe Bomb' is themed around an (alcoholic) Scottish person, instead of Irish. But the other two you were entirely correct on which is really impressive considering you've only listened to the OST!
you can see how they manage to tell what a character does just by producing themes for them, like spy's theme he said something about "stealth" and in demo's theme he says something about an irish dude getting into a bar fight, i believe that's something demoman would 100% do lmao
The music title names do give it away. I mean the music also do. but it kinda influence the outcome reading the title of a music track when it contains hint.
@@TheDiner50Yeah but yo need to know at least the basics of each class to get that, i don't think he knows. Which is good so he can draw from JUST the music with no game/lore knowledge to interfere with his interpretation.
as a music nerd, I really like that you're analysing the soundtrack for one of my favourite games! you should definitely make a Part 3 for this.
You got the vibe for each song pretty much perfectly for every one.
Each one is from one of the classes' "Meet the Team" videos, where you're introduced to the class's playstyle and general personality.
Drunken Pipe Bomb plays during the action sequences of Demoman's "Meet the Team" video.
He's a laughing, drunken, Scottish (not Irish, but close enough) explosive class, lobbing bombs around and laying Stickybomb traps.
But he's also more tactical than you'd think. The crescendo happens when he leads the enemy team into a big sticky trap he's laid out, and gives a taunting salute as they all blow up.
Right Behind You is from the Spy's "Meet the Team" video.
That one is more of a horror/thriller style (with plenty of humor, of course,) cutting back and forth between the enemy Spy sneaking through the base eliminating people one by one, and the remaining team members guarding the intelligence briefcase, deliberating over how to deal with the enemy Spy (and killing their allied Spy out of paranoia,) before the big reveal that one of them _was_ the enemy Spy the entire time.
More Gun is from Engineer's "Meet the Team" video.
It opens with him strumming his guitar, sitting in front of a fire, casually talking to the viewer about what being an Engie means, while gunfire periodically interjects.
The threatening tone change happens when the camera pans out, revealing the many different automated Sentry Guns all around him, gunning down enemies trying to approach. So you weren't completely off the mark with the Western gun draw thing.
The "fire" is a burning sniper...
I love how his eyes widen at the start of every song like he is blown away 3 seconds into the song
I hope part 3 comes out soon, this guys reaction to the sudden transitions of some of the songs is amazing.
I listen to these soundtracks for years (and not only in-game), and yet you made me rediscover, hear things I didn't before, in the whole album, so big thank you for that !!
Wow, man. I really liked what you added to the "Right behind you" song with you violin. It gave it another layer of emotion. You're awesome, dude.
Wow, I think your improv on Right Behind You is my favorite one of your improve sections so far.
Fun fact: More Gun (at least the intro bit) is actually heavily based on "Someone Else's Song" by the band Wilco
Awesome stuff!
A lot of these music can be found through the 'Meet the Team' videos on UA-cam in case you want the imagery with it.
It’s so cool that despite the different directions the musics take like Scottish back pipes or the western guitar, it stays true to the Spy Movie style you talked about.
If you ever want more of these, the next ones are:
- Mercenary Park
- It hates me so much
- Intruder Alert
- Faster than a Speeding Bullet
And then some:
- Dapper Cadaver
- Soldier of Dance
- Seduce Me!
- A little Heart to Heart
Love your videos and remixes! Good stuff 🤌
(By the way, little tidbit, the theme for the sniper is straight up just the music of Magnum Force, the movie, not even remixed at all, just the same, so you don’t need to check it out if you already know it)
you gotta love the pure joy that he feels when he is listening to the music, honestly emulates my feeling when im listening as well. love this channel! also you violin for right behind you sound fucking amazing!
15:00 this song is used in Meet the Engineer. You are perfectly describing it's story.
5:54 HE’LL TURN RED ANY SECOND NOW
Honestly we just need to get him to react to all the tf2 songs. They’re just pure fire.
Turning More Gun into bluegrass was gorgeous, wish you played more of it!
YES I saw your first video and I couldn’t wait for more! Something I wish people would react to is the old Call of Duty soundtracks thought like old Modern Warfare 2, that music gets me motivated like nothing before.
"Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems, not problems like "What is beauty?" Because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems, for instance: how am I going to stop some mean mother Hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new be-hind? The answer, use a gun, and if that don't work... Use more gun. Take for instance this heavy caliber tripod mounted lil' old number designed by me, built by me, and you best hope... it's not pointed at you."
during the first reaction it was close, not Irish but Scottish.
nice video!
I closed my eyes and just listened to your addition onto "Right Behind You".
I love the flair that you put onto it. Its like a tale ive never heard, but is somehow even better. Thank you for covering this, and improving upon perfection. 👍
'More Gun' is the theme of the Engineer, a seemingly sane man, and inarguably the most intelligent merc, but he is just as nuts as everyone else, 11 PHDs but still insane
idk why but when SPG hears the first 5 seconds of any song he goes 👀
If you did team fortress again, I'd love if you gave your thoughts on what you imagine the scenario of the track is, and then watch the trailers in which they happen. I loved your thoughts on More Gun and Right Behind you, and it'd be neat if you then saw what they were actually used for, and how close you were!
Thanks. Not really interested whether I was right or wrong. The journey of imagination is enough for me. I move on to the next video.
@@LionmightOfficialthank you for these videos, it's great to see your thoughts and ideas from these soundtracks because it's one of the best parts of tf2 imo
@@LionmightOfficial Even if you don't record it, you should still watch the videos, they are great short films.
@@LionmightOfficialI really think you'd like the trailers, even without recording them! They're really fun and silly
@@LionmightOfficialyou should totally watch the videos they are amazing
15:12 Absolutely beautifully said. I paused the video, explained how I felt about about the piece, and then playing it again.. we both came to the conclusion that its all interpretation and imagery based upon how we feel creating imagination. I need to make this my career. I love it too much.
The game is timeless, the music is great, and the community is amazing. Nothing will stop the community from growing, and every part if the community helps bring everything together. Gameplay, weapons, maps, gamemodes, music. Everything. We love the game for the things that the game is.
I mean the game literally has its own economy
11:41 - howdy
I'm what they call an engineer
2:00 LEEETS DO IIT!!!
@@BLACKFLAME4941 its not lets do its “im scotish”

More please! Rocket jump waltz is my personal favorite piece from TF2/Orange box games.
I loved the way you added to each piece with some personal flair. Great video
Check part 1
@@LionmightOfficial watching now 😎
If you're looking for a new VST to listen to, Hi-Fi Rush came out earlier this year and has sooo many good songs. It's chock-full of nice spins on the rock genre that never manages to bore, and each song is so intoxicatingly enjoyable. Favourite VST of all time, and I think you'd really enjoy it!
Kotone!
Oh man, I still really want to play that game... but not as long as it comes with Denuvo
I kind of adore that both the medic and engineer essentially have two halves each to their theme music, where the first half is all quaint and unassuming and then the second half hits the most intense spike in tone imaginable. The same way medic and engie themselves are kind of quaint, cute, unintimidating classes in-game until given time to fully set up the tools that make them truly scary, i.e medic's ubercharge and engie's level 3 buildings. Music tying to the game design in little ways like that is just so rad.
Almost every single song you've listened to is from the "Meet The" character animations valve made for every character. For "Right Behind You" plays during "Meet The Spy" and is honestly my favorite one just because of this song lining up so well with the animation.
11:46 Every time I hear this I can’t get the line out of my Head that the Engenier said at the ending: And best hoped, not pointed at you
These kinds of videos make me smile. I enjoy them very much.
Man right behind you just takes me back to the tf2 "Meet the character" videos
So glad you checked this out. It's a real treat to see someone find the TF2 soundtrack, for how wacky and wild it is. If you've got the spare time, you should watch the Meet the Team videos, which actually use the music pieces from the soundtrack in them.
That violin take you had on right behind you was probably one of the most beautiful pieces of music i have ever heard, itd be amazing isolated to just sit and listen it
6:48 he tried to say "Merasmus".
I love this game like a love a person from my past. The mercs, their themes, the gameplay, my old crew that I played with. It was a different time in my life that I really miss. Thank you for reminding me. I’ve shed a few tears watching these videos. I hope you do some more.
I really like the sudden twist in More Gun, really shows you that no matter how calm and sensible Engineer seems, he's still as insane as every other mercenary
These are very unique reactions man, one of my favourite parts is the analisis of each song, comparing the songs with the knowledge you have about music like in here with all of the minimalist style of composition. It gives so much more to these types of videos that someone knows what they are talking about
sound tracks from the Touhou project series are over the top amazing. You just have to listen to some if you haven't yet. some that I recommend would be Septette For a Dead Princess, Hiroari Shoots a Strange Bird, Gensokyo Millennium, and Satori Maiden.
I agree with you on only reacting to the music the first time around, although I think it would be quite fun to go back once you've finished the full sound track and watch some of the videos associated with the music and see how close you got to the "intended context". It also a treat to hear the songs on there own the videos unintentionally cover up the subtitles of the music
"Seduce me!", "Night of the Living Bread", and "It hates me so much!" are ones you should definitely check out next.
Your improv for "Right Behind You" was awesome, you're very talented, thank you for sharing that talent with us!
Edit: Should have waited to comment, the one for more gun was brilliant as well!
id love to see you listen to either The Binding of Isaac or Deep Rock Galactic's soundtracks!
YES DEEP ROCK GALACTIC
ROCK AND STONE!
@@gammafox5431 ROCK AND STONE
*bursts into a seemingly dark empty room* “ROCK AND STONE BROTHERS- . . Oh I’m a year too late . . ROCK AND STONE”
The violin alongside Right Behind You was absolutely perfect. You totally nailed the feel of the song, and your addition to the song was incredibly fitting whilst not falling into the pitfall of other covers where they end up taking the focus from the original song. Your version added the perfect, terrifying element and complimented the original piece wonderfully. Sent chills down my spine. It's been 12 years since I first played TF2 and that brought me back to the first time I ever heard that song all those years ago, the tension and suspense that song brings. TF2 has one of the best, if not the best, soundtracks in all of gaming.
You really can't put the TF2 soundtrack behind you without listening & reacting to The Calm. It's one of those songs that starts out with a strong theme and then does a 90 degree turn into something very different. It's one of my favourite songs on the album.
I'm just gonna throw this out there, Idk if you take suggestions but you should listen to the 3 main songs of Rebel Cops: "Rebel Cops", "Listen Up" and "At Ease"
Hey SPG loved the reaction ! If you're looking for more video game osts, I can suggest you some amazing osts from Enter The Gungeon! You should defenitly look for those first : "Lead Lord Keep", "Boss Battle Beating" and "Enter the Gungeon"
That was a great video. May I ask if you could do another one. My favourite "A little heart to heart" wasn't there yet
Great reaction, love how you add on to the music yourself after giving your thoughts. For other games, Disco Elysium personally has an astounding soundtrack, would highly recommend a listen!

Fun fact:
IT IS
IT TOTALLY IS
If you want the context for this music, watch the "Meet the engineer" short made by valve and you will get why i say this
there's a hidden gem of a game, Starlink: Battle For Atlas, but has been somewhat forgotten by most people. if you were to listen to the OST, my favourites are Primed For Battle, The Warden Harvest and The Dreadnought
Yooo a fellow starlink fan!!!
good to know there's others who actually enjoyed that game
@@anthonytheadmin1681 ay the game is good. beat it a bunch of times on very hard
Played it kinda like a new starfox game
oh yeah that game exists
I've seen this video so many times and i still enjoy the parts of your violin. Especially the right behind you one with the violin. I can imagine having a choir as extra singing dies irae
Love that you're checking out TF2's soundtrack, the songs totally bang. There is another game series that I love as well that also has a killer and banging soundtrack, and it's the Yakuza/Ryu Ga Gotoku series (as well as its spinoffs Judgment, Lost Judgment etc.). It's unreal how each game in the series and its spinoffs has a phenomenal soundtrack and I'd love for you to give them a listen.
Your tf2 videos make me tear because tf2 is my childhood and reminds me the magic that I felt when I watched tf2 meet the team videos and when I played for first time the game, thank you!
When you're finished with the soundtrack, would you do a reaction of all the Meet the Team videos? It'd be nice to watch you hear how the songs are used, and see the characters and scenarios the music was composed for.
16:27 on reminds me of as a California Kid taking care of rescue animals as part of an after school program I joined and it makes me happy beyond belief...
I still love that the music captures the character’s personalities so well that even someone who’s never heard of or seen TF2 would probably be able to immediately understand what they’re like by just listening to their theme songs
Side note: if you haven’t already, can you please try reacting to some Touhou songs or even the remixes since some of them are as good if not better than the originals
I loved you playing over the Spy and Engineer song! It sounded so nice as if it was a missing piece
Hey man, could u do "crypt of the necrodancer" ?
It's a great rhythm game and I would especially recommend the songs, mausoleum mash and six feet thunder
