It's funny - Raphael's voice actor has no training in singing, but they just had him try making a recording of the song they were working on, and he nailed it so spectacularly that they went with it.
Nat 20
some people have a natural talent for singing, even though they may not realise it, especially so with actors.
I mean considering the effort voice actors go through to train themselves to have mastery over their own voice, it makes a lot of sense for them to be deceptively good at singing.
theater trained actors are also suprisingly good singers as they are trained to project their voices over large distances @@TheJamieellis

Raphaël loves himself so much that he sings in his own boss fight song
you can silence him and his parts will actually be muted during the song too
I stole his two journels when he was in the last light he was scared of a dream he mentions but rallies himself to carry on with his plans
What did the journals say he was scared about in the dream@@terryroberts5309
Although he's a Devil, in his human form he retains the appearance of (when taking a closer look at his clothing) a Bard. He's singing a song to make you doubt your choices, and tear down your confidence in battle.
Raphael's class is probably Bard.
I want this song to be performed live at this year’s Game Awards
me too!!
@@varycherry If you nominate me to music direct, I'll happily orchestrate my remix:
ua-cam.com/video/PofeWQY0fHU/v-deo.html
YES! PLEASE!
So crazy that both this and Alan Wake 2 got good music to use there and then both can win awards too because they are both so damn good games :)
I want this song to be performed live at my funeral.
Heard it a hundred times and it still gives me goose bumps
To answer some questions; Obviously the male line is Raphael's VA singing, but the female lines are actually Hope. You can figure this out because if either of them die before the fight ends, I'm fairly certian their lines stop playing
It's not just if they're dead but if they're incapacitated in any way during the fight. Raphael kept slipping on an ice field I kept making so his lines kept getting cut off. If it wasn't for that I wouldn't of realized he was actually singing
@lechecbb he'll also go quiet if you cast Silence on him
I was playing a OH Monk. At the start of the fight I flew (Illithid Power) over to him and stunned him. I never heard his voice lines at all until I watched this video.
Literally me: HE SINGS!?!?
IT'S DIAGETIC?!?! Holy hells this song just gets better and better
This song is the most disney Villain, Tim Burton-esque song I have ever heard and I love it. I felt bad betraying Rafael after listening to it. Fuck...
By Tim Burton-esque you mean Danny Elfman. He scored many of Burtons films. Burton had the vision but Elfman brought it to life.
@@mulqueen2023 sure.
Baldurs Gate 3 didn't have to go this hard for a somewhat secret boss battle... but they did. And it is glorious!!
I am a 44 year old woman who loves playing video games, but never played anything like BG3 before. When this song started, I teared up. It was so amazing. Had to call my daughter afterwards -who introduced me to bg3 - and thanked her for forcing me to play this game already. 😅😍
You obviously did a good job with your daughter and therefore deserve all of this.
You know you fucked up when the boss is singing their own theme song.
Raphael isn't "the" devil, he's just "a" devil. With an inferiority complex.
He's the son of Mephistopheles, which makes him royalty, but ... his mum is a mortal, making him a thin blooded cambion.
In context, his actions are quite understandable. >
Yeah, this. An actual top-tier devil would wreck you. Even the Githyanki Queen was strong enough to wipe out your whole party with one spell.
He is no Gaunter o dimm 😉
@@DJKurohwell. It was THE spell lol
@@DJKurohTbh, it was SPELL that kills you. Raphael>Lich Vlaakith.
@@eagleye2893 HUH?! absolutely not, Vlaakith is way stronger than Raphael. Raphael isn't even specifically strong for a devil.
This fight and song feels more last boss than the true last boss
So true!! They set my expectations so high with this, but then when I got to the last boss, there was no massive culmination of music, visuals, and atmosphere that I was expecting, I was very sad.
My impression was that Raphael was supposed to be the finale for Act 3, and then there would be a whole Act 4 in the true upper portion of the city.
@@Ghettofinger yeah the final fight was so underwhelming, it felt more rushed to get to the absolute instead of actually fighting anyone
This was possibly my favorite moment ive experienced in twenty years of playing video games. i will never forget the chills i got when i reached this point in the game. Lord of bones monologue was a close second :)
If you cast Silence he stops singing and an orchestral version continues
Attention to detail ❤
Same as with the Harpies in Act 1. If you interrupt the singing harpy, the voice stops, and just the background instrumentals keep going.
That isn't true 😢
Raphael is SOOOO much a classic Disney villan and WE ALL LOVE IT
not just a disney villain, but a golden age disney villain. charismatic, evil, deceptively alluring, complicated back story, a goal with every interaction, he has it all.
@@gamero31o That's why I used word "classic"
See - we THOUGHT that Auntie Ethel was the Disney villain...we were half right.
Characters standing around asking "Are we're gonna do this fight or not?"
Tav "Shush! I'm enjoying the music!"
I was so happy he got his own Disney Villian theme song.
Oh wow, I watch your film reactions all the time & thrilled to see your playing this banger of a game. This song just stops people in their tracks, the actor who plays Raphael deserves so many props not just for this song but his whole scenery chewing performance. This song and the Dame Aylin bit are my two fav moments & I can't get enough of watching ppl experience for the first time.
They didnt have to go this hard for the culmination of Rapheal but I love that they did :D
i also gave a pause to listen to the song
twins
Best song in heaven or hell
true
he sings his own song because of his pride what a well written character
Liiives! All *M0RTAL* Lives! *Expireeeee*
when i got to this fight, and it started, and the song came on...I leaned back in my chair in tears. I was blown away by how beautiful it was. I love Baldurs Gate man, its so much fun. So well made....(this is my favorite song from the game)
Amazing. I'm in awe of the talent it required to bring us this awesome gaming moment.
One of the great moments in gaming this year.
This was a very uncalled for song. LIke, BG3 was already crushing the world, they did NOT need to go this hard. We get it Larion, you are the best ever, chill out!
the cherry on top? 666HP.
I just got to this fight last night, wow!! My theory is the womans voice is Hope, Raphael vs Hope in the house of hope, i had her use divine intervention and she died from the reverse damage, AND RAPH HAS THE GALL TO SAY "now you are truly Hope-less" bro
That's exactly what it is. The woman is Hope. The man is Raphael. It's not a theory.
@ThunderTaco206 I've been told otherwise, saying its her sister but I haven't tested it
I'm glad SOME developers learn about boss design from the Almighty Poo
The song that means " oh you done did it now"
Raphael moonlights as an opera singer
"I don't even want to fight right now. I just want to enjoy your talent, man" 🤣😂
Mary was REALLY feeling this for some reason. Lol. Imagine if she broke into song. 🤣🤣🤣
Fun fact: if you cast silence during the combat they stop singing according to who you're silencing and if you silence both, you will hear only the instrumental parts
Unfun fact: That's a persistent but untrue rumor
When a succubus sings about hell and its master.
And he joins in.
Because he's not just any demon, no, he's a bardic demon.
And I can't explain it, but it was the first time I've ever had the feeling of awe to experience something like this in front of an imaginary video game character.
The Raphael fight and song are EASILY my favorite part of BG3 :)
I can understand her cause i had the same reaction, in my next gameplay ill just simp him and give him the crown and everything he wants :P
The female singer is Mariya Anastasova, the same that did the "Down By The River" character creation song.
she's amazing!
For me personally it’s the best boss fight theme of all time. And close second is the Lilith Bossfight of Diablo 4 it’s also absolutely insane.
I want someone to try out for a show like American Idol or The Voice or America's Got Talent and have them perform this song as their first debut, and if they make it to another round then perform Down By The River, and in another later round perform I Want To Live. It would be awesome!
Fun fact: If you cast silence on Raphael during this part he stops singing.
Not sure why you would want to silence this amazing performance, but you can. The devs thought of that.
I wonder if the purpose for this song has to do with inspiration from Faustus and Mephistophiles, the opera.
Little did she know the music kept going
Absolutely LOVED THIS!!! I was so pleasantly surprised when the battle started.
Raphael what the disney villan's of today WISH THEY COULD BE!
I was not expecting a Disney musical number but I was pleasantly surprised.
I've seen better villains than Raphael. but he certainly gets points for singing his own villain song in the fight. And for being in general a magnificent bastard.
The woman singing is Hope.
This song gives a total Danny Elfman vibe.
When I heard this song on my first playthrough it convinced me to give Raphael the crown my second run through. 🙌
This is why this game has to be turned based 😂 we all need this moment to jam when it comes
One of my favorite things is that If you go back and play the game again, you'll notice that this song plays anytime he is on screen in a cutscene.
Whaaaaaat?? That's nuts. And cool.
Listened to this song to get hype before firing somebody 😌
This was the moment I was glad I brought the deluxe edition that included the soundtrack
I got the deluxe edition and found the in game items, but how do I get the album? Do I have to download it from stream somewhere?
Go into the Baldur's Gate 3 folder, then open the digitaldelux folder and there should be a folder names OST - that's the sound track@@elmatilda
A little fun thing about this fight, if you use the Silence spell on Raphael his line's in the song stop.
He's literally singing this while you're fighting him.
the song starts again if you load from the middle of the fight and ngl I did just that just to hear the song again a few more times, I was having goosebumps when I first entered the fight and heard it.
the lady singing is Hope iirc
Pretty sure it's not. Different voice actress anyways.
BTW the interview with the actor as he tells his story is really cool.
"i dont wanna fight, you're talented" xDDD
it really says something about how many people make reaction videos to their first encounter to the music at this fight
Raphael never told anyone his character class is bard.
I want this song on my funeral.
This reaction genuinely delighted me
He truly is a bard
Disney musical level song
hearing this song kinda takes me back to ff7's sephiroth, where the villain had their own music and u almost feel like its stacked against you.
Speechless 😍😍😍
Raphael, to you: Now, down comes the claw!
Raphael, internally: Finally, I waited so long to sing my bit!
The music is great!😃❄
This nearly made my entire game when this started playing what a great surprise!
Holy fuk. Your reaction is exactly how i felt on my first run. It's fun to see your reaction. Now i need to find your play through.
Boris Slavov killed it with this song.
It really is an amazing song. I also wish it were longer 😭 I love it all the same tho!
The epicest battle, do you upload your playthrough on youtube?
He's a devil. He'll sing of your demise as he fights you because he knows this is but a farce, you're a but a mere speck and you've already lost. Raphael has made me like the devil motif in DnD again. I'mma steal that for any who might play any game I run. 😁
when you cast silent on him he stops singing
I wonder how many people realised the female singer is Hope.
i feel this song sets the bar for boss music going forward
Bruh. I became a Raphaelite after this song. He won me over.
Best thing about it? Dude's not even a full Devil, he's a Cambion(Half mortal). However his drive an ambition to surpass his father Mephistopheles is unmatched
It's funny. I enslaved him with a binding spell so he was on my team.. Then the fight ended cause he was the last enemy alive but he was friendly. Then the spell wore off and the song started again.
It's one of the best parts of the game before he even starts singing
Of course Raphael sings his own theme song
i was able to convince the big guy to help me, was one of my favorite fights in the game
Yeah yeah rave to the song until your whole party gets oneshot' by his chaos-fireball... 😅😂
I only regret one thing about listening this song when i fought raphael, its not gonna be a first time listening it nevermore 😢
2nd playtrough, durge, diving into the house of hope just to get this scene irl once more
"I want to live" by Borislav Slavov if you want more of her voice :D
Can't wait for someone to drop a dubstep remix...
awesome ! :)
Thanks! 😄
YES YESSS. i had the EXACT reaction to this fight and ive been listening to the song NON-STOP ever since. felt bad for killing raphael 😢
True final boss fight as far as I’m concerned 😊
what was great is if you silence raphael he stops singing lol so he is ACTUALLY SINGING IN GAME
yas Raphael! Hit that high note girl
I've heard that if you cast Silence on Raphael, he doesn't sing his lines during the song.
It's things like these that make BG3 one of the best games ever made.
Reminds me of Danny Elfman as Jack Skellington in Nightmare Before Christmas
WHERE CAN I WATCH YOUR FULL PLAYTHROUGH !
The best game i've played in my life, Melhor jogo que joguei na vida!!!
Magnificent.
Fun fact: If you silence Raphael, the singing stops!
aw i missed out on this. I was wondering why Raphael hasn't looked for me after doing his demon problem
The only acceptable reaction to this!! This moment caught me so off guard... as always, as soon as you think you can't love this game any more it proves you wrong!
My birthday today 🎁🎁
Didn't even know that you have a gaming channel, only just stumble upon it.
This song is amazing, though to be honest, pretty much every song in BG3 is.
