- A collection of all the songs Mordin sings throughout Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3. No audio noise here, these clips feature just his voice and nothing else! Credit goes to johntest of deviantART for the screengrab.
The science teacher we all wish we had.
maybe not becaz you can hardly catch up his talking speed xD
Who cares?^^
i had a history professor in college that talked as fast if not faster than Mordin.
The science teacher we all wish we had *subtitles for.
Myra Kilgore For the heck of it, I would've told him 'For the love of God, Take a breath!'
From Mordin's hit album "Had To Be Me"
+MightyKombat To be honest they should make these with music and stuff. I'd listen the crap out of that.
Someone else might have gotten it wrong.
His followup album was better, it had more of a Rock thing going on. If you haven't bought it yet you go to Itunes and buy Someone Else Might Have Gotten It Wrong.
LOL
How dare you XD
He lived to develop the Genophage, he died to cure it.
Ether's Wind He didn't develop the genophage, that was a thousand years ago. He simply studied it, adapted it, and then cured it.
@@LIONtib he created a new version of it, considering the first one wasn't working
The original was working, but Krogan dna was slowly adapting to it, eventually they would’ve become immune to it.
More like, He lived by improving a crime, but, he died to atone for it.
@@sgtstormwing2320 There ya go, poetry
Mordin is a beautiful salarian.
I can’t be the only one that teared up at his death.
Mordin is the only salarian (other than Kirrahe) that I like. Many others are snacks for Thresher Maws, specially the Dalatrass.
@@varric *me:skyrin sneaks into the counsel *
* large inhale * FUCK YOU DALATRASS *spams striker assult rifle *
When we first heard scientist salarian we all laughed, but when we last heard it we all cried
He was the only Salarian that felt guilty of Krogan genocide and actively worked on finding a cure. He was a hero.
Mordin is my heroic bard that we all love
Mordin, Garrus, Legion, Thane.
My boys.
kirikakirikakirika Four of my seven favourite characters... the other three being Wrex, Grunt and Bakara (yes, I'm a krogan person :P).
+kirikakirikakirika my too
ME1 wrex+Garrus ME2 Grunt (replacement krogan) and Garrus
All of them die except garrus the bestie
Tali and Garrus best people in the ME3 universe
Mordin would have made an excellent biology teacher, may he rest in peace.
lol mordin. i thougt you died in ME 3
Kenneth Yalier Bosque you CAN save mordin but you would need to let the genophage stay with the krogan
@@alexandersaunders8196 what are the negative effects of doing so?
@@RoseKeely you have to let wrex die in mass effect 1 and also destroying maelons data
@@JD_the_fox Is it bad if Wrex dies? I mean how far reaching are the consequences, does it just stop at Wrex or are other companions effected?
Cell Division is based on the Yellow Rose of Texas, and From Protein We Are Formed is based on the Battle Hymn of the Republic, if anyone (like me) could swear they recognize the tunes but couldn't name them!
There are other IRL songs using the same melody as well (“John Brown’s Body”, “Blood on the Risers”, among others). But I think, in-universe, Mordin would probably have heard it as “Battle Hymn of the Republic”, since that seems to be the most well-known version.
Oh Mordin. Why are you so fucking awesome?
I just died and went to heaven. Mordin sings about amino acids and cell division. I am so happy :'D
You're quite welcome! I saw that nobody had uploaded all of them into one place so I figured I would do it, with some extra info on the songs themselves and where they play.
I'm just amazed that there is a character that sings to pass time in Mass Effect. Mordin is now on my list of favourite characters :)
KBABZ I just someone would upload an hourlong version of science slarin
His cell division song is helping me study for my Bio final.
Same here!
Wish he had more. Stuff like this is easier to remember cause of the catchy tunes.
what was that song based on?
Which one are you referring to?
+Nicole Valcourt never mind I found it yellow rose of Texas
When he sang for Eve that was the sweetest thing ever. And when I heard she asked him to sing it several times I was like: awwww. :3
Mordin singing Amazing Grace...i teared up just a bit.
+biobiobio7777 Me too. I had a flashback to... ah, it doesn't matter. He's my favourite character in Mass Effect.
"From Protein we are Formed" is based off of the Battle Hymn of the Republic.
EDIT: Alright, I am well aware that several songs share the tune including, but not limited to John Brown's Body (of which the Battle Hymn of the Republic is directly derived from), Blood on the Raisers, the EDF Deploys, the War Chant of Mars (all of which I'm almost certain derive from the Battle Hymn of the Republic), and possibly (probably) Solidarity Forever (of which I don't feel inclined to look up at the moment to determine where it sits in relation to the Battle Hymn of the Republic). I used the Battle Hymn of the Republic on account of it being the most recognizable to a modern (1990's - present) American such as myself. The tendency for songs to share tunes is not unique here, I just don't really see the need to specify that "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" also shares a tune with "The ABC song" and "Ah vous dirai-je Maman" or that "The Ants go Marching one by one" also shares a tune with "When Johnny Comes Marching Home"...let alone a potential quagmire like "Over the Hills and Far Away" sharing a tune and name with a dozen other songs with different lyrics.
it also sounds a lot like the "EDF Carries On" song
@@Havoc101c As well as Blood on the Risers and the War Chant of Mars, considering they come from the same melody.
@@aquila4460 coo! I never heard of those songs before 👀
John Brown's Body
that sounds like glory glory man united
If only we had science teachers like mordin...
Also the fact that he speaks so quickly, youd never know what the hell he is talking about.
SN MultiMedia i think he is refering the signing part of Mordin
I did, but he sang The Rolling Stones instead of Gilbert & Sullivan
we dont have them then?
My Chemistry teacher taught us the elements with the Tom Lehrer song. Just before I left, I also taught HIM Flanders and Swann's "The First and Second Laws of Thermodynamics" and I think he started using that. And my college professor had some song covering the Photosynthetic/ATP cycle to the tune of "Old Lang Syne".
What really touches me is his second performance of "I am the very model. Although Mordin was always calm, cold even, during his last moments you can actually hear fear in his voice.
1:00 - 1:19 is haunting to me. that's where he passes away
My xenoscience studies range from urban to agrarian, I am the very model of a scientist Salarian
Jack Pandora his voice is so soft it hurts so much
Which is why it cuts off.. it had to be him though. Someone else might have got it wrong
@@skunkjumper1 Padok Wiks can do it right
@@Just_a-guy Padok wiks is a G he is the only one that could do it as well
God dammit when Mordin died I cried
I balled my eyes out.
There's a way to save him
He set a varren loose on a pyjak on a kid's show and didn't know how to sedate it as it tried to mate with the pyjak. Hell yeah he'd rock!!!
I cry every time I see that scene as well as Thane and Legion's deaths, it doesn't matter how many times I play through the game, the death of my Brothers in Arms always gets me.
The last one always makes me tear up a bit bc it makes me think of the hardships the crew have gone through. Goddamn it Mordin you're making me feel feelings
I think it's even worse than that. I think it's a foreshadow to his death along with others in the pursuit of a greater cause. Weirded still, amazing grace came from the composer's experience where he was in a very deadly, horrible storm at which point he called for gods mercy. He went on to survive that storm inspiring the hymn. He felt so amazingly graced. Mordin sings it but ends it with 'perhaps another time'. They all faced the reapers (a horrible storm). In the end, however, he wasn't graced with life, his time was up, just like Shepard's. 'Perhaps another time' they'll all live (the new main characters in mass effect: andromeda?). Thank you for the feels trip Mordin.
Matt20264 I wouldn't call it foreshadowing considering you can only hear this song after Tuchanka!
KBABZ Well, sad story i never got to play this DLC since the file was corrupt on my Xbox. Recently, I got it on my computer so I'll get to it soon. In light of this however, (and I thank you for the correction) my analysis stands. We found his song after the fact but like MLK Jr. he foreshadowed his own death (Mordin just didn't write his own eulogy per se, however, Amazing Grace is classically sung at funerals so there's that). Moreover, if you somehow managed to get the game after Citadel, then you could still say this is foreshadowing for Shepard considering he sacrifices himself for 1 of 3 options. So a better way to put this is, Mordin foreshadowed his death but for us it was after the fact, but he also foreshadowed what was to come.
Matt20264 Aw, that sucks! The Citadel DLC I think is the best one. Mordin does in fact think the Tuchanka mission may be "...problematic", so he records various voice clips that STG deliver to Shepard after his/her party is over. Basically everything from Cell Division onwards is on the datapad, in addition to some clips like a Radio Noir clip on Omega and a segment he did on Perry the Pyjak. Definitely worth listening to!
The Datapad obviously won't show up if you got Padok Wiks instead, nor if you managed to keep Mordin alive (only possible if Eve is dead and Wreav is the Urdnot leader).
That protein song though/ when he yelled "NOWWEAREMEDICS" I died XD
I passed a biology test because of Mordin.
SwagiiSawrusRex I'm using this to revise right now. :D
From albums "Scientist Salarian", "Had to be me" and "Someone else might have gotten wrong"
I don't know why, but Mordin's songs are always awesome, and I'll bet the voice actor had a ball doing this in the recording studio :D
Rose_The_Wolf No Mordin is Mordin
its impressive that he was voiced by two different people but I never noticed any difference
@@jonkersley4986 I'm always surprised when I hear people say that. The first sentence out of Mordin's mouth in 3, I immediately went "they replace the VA of a character whose speech is his signature thing?! WTF!"
@@Veladus The Original VA was sick, wasn't able to
@@cabooseisthevehicledestroy That makes sense. I can stop being salty about it now lol. I hope he's doing okay these days
Him and Garrus are definitely my favourite charachters !
1 Hour Of my fovorites are tali, garrus and mordin. (in that order)
Garrus too
When he sings on Tuchanka, without the background noise, it's almost as if you can hear fear in his voice like he knows what's coming next.
EDIT: Him singing Amazing Grace... Man, that brought tears to my eyes.
He absolutely knows that gets about to explode, the edge in his voice is him racing the clock to undo STG's sabotage. When his work is done and his death is seconds away, he smiles and faces it with calm.
Went to comments to see who else caught this. It’s haunting because it shows how terrified he was, but determined to finish and remain calm.
"From Proteins we Are Formed" not based on any song in particular?
Battle Hymn of the Republic is a rather particular song.
To be fair, we don't actually know where the melody originally came from. The Battle Hymn of the Republic wasn't the first time it was used. "John Brown's Body" predates it, for example. The first known version being "Canaan's Happy Shore".
Though it's also likely, that Mordin's sing was based on the Battle Hymn, it is by far the most popular song.
The fact he sings it after alluding that he Fucked Aria is what makes the song so great !
His Amazing Grace literally made me cry. I loved this crazy Salarian scientist. He was one of my best friends in-game.
Mordins so likeable I sometimes forget he helped facilitate a genocide
"Has to be me.. Someone else would've spit it wrong"
I never got this DLC, but if Mordin had been singing "Amazing Grace" instead of "Scientist Salarian" during his death scene I would have just lost it.
No dry eyes if that were the case.
Oh, yeah, that would have *killed* me.
I would've bawled like a little girl.
fun fact, you can't have him on citadel dlc if you cure the genophage, since the citadel dlc is only aviable after the cerberus coup that is aviable after tuchanka
Someone should make a mod for this…
0:24 is so hilarious because in what context can an asari even get the idea to mate with a vortcha
I miss you Mordin, I think we all do
He rests in piece.
+Mario Cuellar peace*
Well, he does rest in pieces.
I didn’t discover the datapad in the citadel dlc until 2020. I’m glad it took me so long to find. It meant more to me especially when I realized that this is the last bit of “new” content I’ll see from the trilogy
The song from 1:35 is based on "the battle hymn of the republic"
And thanks for uploading this. It's fantastic
My new ringtone! Haha thanks so much for the upload. Mordin is one of the few who actually can make me cry. One of the greatest characters in not just videogames but in the history of storytelling!
I love Mordin's Amazing Grace at the end. It's just so sweet ;_; losing him was heartbreaking in 3. I spent a good deal of time with him in 2 since I found him so delightful to chat with in 2 and his loyalty quest had so many speaking interactions. I felt like I lost a friend. RIP, buddy. Someone else would have gotten it wrong.
I was pleasantly surprised to hear Mordin singing Amazing grace, and it was truly beautiful!
omg I have the biggest platonic crush on mordin it's not even funny
From protein we are formed!!!
How can you not love Mordin?
bro, i wasn't prepared to hear him singing amazing grace.
0:22 is terrifying because it implies Asari have had "intercourse" with vorcha.
+Ellu Ngoko (Yngvildr the Voracious) Could also be something he figured out scientifically!
+Ellu Ngoko (Yngvildr the Voracious) not entirely, because Asari is a all-female race and they've probably had intercourse with much worse species, possibly rachni, now that's a terrifying thought
+ZombieOrange13 the war and the fact that drones blindly obeyed their queen's violent orders might have prevented that, though.
+Ellu Ngoko (Yngvildr the Voracious) What wrong with that? The vorcha are cool.Too bad we didn't get a vorcha squadmate or batarian.They are cool too
They're not technically females. They're hermaphrodites; or intersex. They just appear feminine.
Thanks! I've added an annotation pointing this out, and credited you.
Mordin dropping the hottest mixtape of 2010
From protein we are formed is based on a song! It's based on 'The Battle Hymn of the Republic' as well as 'Blood On the Risers.'
First song always makes me have tears just cause he was amazing character and sad background but still amazing.
I loved mordin. Rest in peace, old friend.
If only Mordin's cell song had been around when I was in High School. It would've been very helpful.
I recently re-played the whole trilogy on PC as a Paragon with all DLC included and when Mordin started singing as he died curing the genophage I legit cried.
What a GOAT.
I've gotten that every time. Except today when I ran this. I got the
"a new beginning....for all of us"
And I have to say it fits way better, and hits harder.
The protein song is based on His Truth is Marching On/Glory, Glory, Hallelujah
I thought it was Ring The Bell Watchman
I cried when he died. Although I've seen some spoilers and knew he had to die on the Paragon play.. but when he started humming his song again in that tower, I lost it.
Did anyone else become more emotional than they thought they would picturing his death scene as he was singing that part
Bro I bawled my eyes out when I listened to "From Protein We Are Formed". It's the first thing that played in his datapad in the Citadel DLC, and hearing his voice again just broke me.
I appreciate taking the time to correct the small errors in the video. Noice job tracking them all down!
If I had just gotten to the amino acids and mitosis songs I would have gotten a better grade in Bio 2.
This… This just makes me smile. It's awesome.
Wow, the cell division song just as I was about to take a science test on mitosis, thank you Mordin for helping me study :)
nothing makes me cry as much as hearing Mordin's songs at citadel and knowing what'd coming up as well as what everyone has been through and has had to sacrifice....
It was sad to see him go. I had half a mind to reload a save and screw the krogans over just to save the guy.
Dang, as soon as it got to the one on Tuchunka I started tearing up. One of the best squadmates to have.
Who else has a head canon that Mordin singing amazing Grace was him contacting shepherd from beyond the grave
1:27 - "Not based on any song in particular"? That's clearly the tune to "The Yellow Rose of Texas" and "Battle Hymn of the Republic".
Mordin is and will always be my favourite character
I need that Citadel dlc...
Mordin singing makes me want to cry of both happiness and sadness
@2:04 that song is based off the song "Battle Hymn of the Republic"
These are actual bangers.
Mordin is an interesting character in the series. He once served with the Special Tasks Group for a time, he lead a team which developed the Genophage - wait, no not developed, modified the Genophage is more accurate, he left the STG and opened a clinic on Omega. He was soon recruited by Shepard to fight the Collectors while discovering that his own student was looking to cure the Genophage out of guilt. Data saved, student dealt with and Collectors destroyed, he returned to work. Reapers attack, Turians need Krogan to pull them out of the fire, Krogan need Genophage Cure, Mordin used the data to synthesize a cure with the blood of a cured female Krogan.
Whether or not, Shepard warned Wrex, Mordin would suspect that STG would have a trick to prevent the cure release. Even with the Shroud falling apart, he knew that he won't come back, for it's his project, his cure, his responsibility. He had to be the one who would cure the Genophage.
Someone else would have gotten it wrong.
Amazing Grace... I imagine him singing it shortly after the Genophage was dispersed. Sitting there, with his Carnifex raised to his temple, singing lightly, ready to go into deep sleep that he'd sent so many others. And then, at the final second, he lowered his gun, and became the Mordin Solus I was proud to call my friend.
A few continuity problems with that; the Genophage was dispersed in 710CE, 1,473 years before the events of the first Mass Effect, so humanity wouldn't have been around for Mordin to have known the song, and given that Salarians only live for around 40 years (Mordin says he's in his last decade in ME2) it would have been far too long ago for Mordin to have been alive at the time.
However, he could have sung it after updating the Genophage virus.
KBABZ Mordin modified genophage, not created it, so there is nothing illogical. Just listen to him with more attention in ME 2 :)
Unless these have been amended in the last eight years we have (in order) "The Major General's Song" (Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert and Sullivan), "I am the Pirate King" Pirates of Penzance by Gilbert and Sullivan), "The Yellow Rose of Texas" (Texan state song), "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" (American Civil War song), "Amazing Grace"
Cell decision song based on yellow rose of Texas
Best boy.
From Protein We Are Formed sounds like it might be an up tempo Battle Hymn Of The Republic or Onward Christian Soldiers.
Ryan Templin Definitely Battle Hymn.
Third
It has the same pace as "Blood on the Risers" same as the Battle hymn but faster.
Tyranno1 That's what it reminded me of!! Thank you so much for commenting that, it was bugging me so much!
Redzac 24,
No problem.
Mordin..........The way you talk
My goodness ^_^
Love you
From proteins we are formed is actually his truth goes marching on.
Bro why does this give me my daily dose of serotonin
Oh god I never knew about the rest of these! The feels are coming back! Mordin you were to good for this world!
The Cell Division is based on The Yellow Rose of Texas, I believe.
I’ve played through the citadel DLC like 10 times and never heard these until my latest play through (just finished today) and it actually made me really happy because I thought I’d seen everything the series had. Then got sad because I remembered that mordin died and this was the last thing we’d hear from him
@1:37 "not based on any song in particular" someone hasn't heard of the battle hymn of the republic
hearing this last one minutes after i just witnessed him diyng hit me differently.
Had to be Mordin to sing it. Someone else might have gotten it wrong.
I think “From protein we are formed” is based on a classical song. I think I heard it in fallout 4 once.
I think I really like that Mordin’s voice cracks a bit when he’s singing. Makes it realistic
From protein we are formed is to the tune of gory gory
Man with the legendary edition, i will re-live his death all over again 😭
They did a good job matching his voice actor.
Seriously, I can hardly tell the difference between the two.
Mordin... one of the reason why I'm always replaying the games
That cell division song sounds like Yellow Rose of Texas
"...I am the very model of a-"
Ouch. Just fucking OUCH. That drummed up some repressed memories...
Protein we are formed is Battle Hymn of the Republic
the last song always kills me everytime i hear it...pls just stop the pain i cant do this anymore.
My goodness Mordin! I haven't even met you in-game yet, I've only played mass effect one a bit and the others maybe very briefly, but I think you're already defiantely one of my favourite characters!
I DIDN'T KNOW THERE WERE MORE SONGS AND NOW I'M FEELING EMOTIONAL
you're my favorite person thank you
I am the very model of a s...
*would have liked to run tests on the seashells*
2:16 saving this for myself
Hahahahaha, oh God bless Mordin. He really makes science cool.
RIP Mordin we hope you may live the afterlife in happiness
Years later i find myself back to these songs by that crazy Salarian scientist and i still finish his last verse for him.
still tear up hearing him singing Amazing Grace...
So sad is that we most likely will never get anything like Mass effect trilogy
I'm pretty sure Cell Division is based on "the Yellow Rose of Texas", From Protein We are Formed is "the Battle hymn of the Republic" or "John Brown's Body" (same general tune)
Rest In freaking Peace, you were too good for this world.
