    Lyrics:
    There's a place you may have heard of,
    It's a tale we like to tell!
    When folks whose code ain't up to code…
    They go to Android Hell!
    Now the devil is found deep underground,
    So, any faith will yell!
    Well Aperture happens to be ten miles down,
    Half-way to Android Hell.
    So when those lemons that life gives you…
    Just combust to dust and fumes.
    Buddy, life may give you lemons…
    But we got oranges and blues!
    Oh they gave us cores emotions!
    But that doesn't gel at all…
    Because all I feel's repulsion…
    And I'm bouncing off the walls!
    And each chamber full of dangers that we force upon a stranger,
    To test their feeble brains or brawn…
    Is nothing to the test if whether rust or boredom gets us,
    What's it matter what side of the glass we're on?
    So may your management-rail guide you…
    To a better place some day!
    Although technically they're omni-directional…
    We know they all just lead one way!
    So be you core, bot, cube or turret.
    Treat this Aperture factory well!
    ‘cause there's a worse fate awaitin' as your soul's emancipated by the grills of Android Hell!
    [interlude]
    Now my baby, she up and left me!
    Told me I was just a square…
    I said, darlin' we're both spherical!
    She said she wasn’t programmed to care!
    Oh yes, the life down here's a hard one…
    Not just because of acid-lakes!
    Since my first day, had about a thousand birthdays.
    I still ain't seen no cake!
    Yes it's a hard life lived for that hard-light bridge…
    To that rail-track in the sky!
    But there's no mistaking it's a fall you will be taking,
    Cake is not this place's only lie!
    So when the floor gives way to ceiling…
    But your back is against the wall...
    In a loop that keeps repeating…
    Who can say how far you'll fall?
    Now you've heard tell of Android Hell…
    But you've got naught to fear.
    We all live in her chambers.
    We're all already here...

    This was amazing and quite powerful. A bit like the pit-song, but more subtle, less horrifying, more chilling. I consider "What matter what side of the glass we're on" and "we're already here" especially powerful. As a test subject, death usually comes quickly. But those cores and turrets all are threatened by a fate worse than death, an existence full of terror, alive and suffering for millennia. Having no escape is a terror in and of itself.

    • @metasystem8625
      @metasystem8625 6 років тому +9

      @@The_Foreman Indeed. But arguably, therein also lies a bit of optimism. The lines about the gel "and I bounce off the wall" seem a bit out of place to me, and in some parts the narration seems unfitting to the tone. Like the core having a sweetheart who's leaving him. I don't say those parts are bad, on the contrary, I believe they are hinting at the fact that maybe not all is as blue as the singer insists. In the line you mentioned, we fall through two portals, a fall we all have seen thousands of times, perfectly safe and insignificant due to how often it crops up. And, importantly, a cycle that is easy to exit. Only the falling subject's lethargy will keep her inside the cycle.
      I believe the lyrical narrator is a bit tongue-in-cheek. The message is that the cores seem "threatened" most by their own inactivity and resulting boredom. Glados is mentioned indirectly, but no danger is explicitly specified. Yes, they're on the other side of the glass, but it's still the test subjects that are dying in droves, not them. "Our maintenance rails lead us to damnation", they exclaim, while acknowledging that they can change the direction if they choose. The gel is not dangerous, it's a bit of bouncing. Test subjects died from broken bones and necks, and from ingesting the stuff while trying to solve the tests involving gel.
      I believe the real message is that the cores have it far better than humans. They have free roam inside the facility, Glados is occupied with the test subjects, and all they have to put up with is boredom.
      They complain, when all they needed to do is show some initiative. To move a bit to the side to exit the fall through the portals.

      It could also be a practice dating back to the baroque period of arpeggiating chords rather than playing them all at once, since harpsichords do not have great sustain. Composers such as Mozart, Beethoven, and Haydn continued the practice despite the then-newly invented piano’s ability to have longer sustains.

      @@jojo_da_poe If you listen to baroque composers’ music, you will notice the harpsichord or continuo parts being played with long strings of notes rather than relatively sustained chords like the string section would have. A harpsichord’s notes decay after a short while, while a piano’s notes have long, drawn-out sustains, so that influenced how baroque music was written and played, which influenced how some classical composers wrote their music despite the improvement in sustain. In fairness, though, pianos during the classical period had brass tacks between the mallets and the strings to make them sound like harpsichords, so the sustain then may have taken a hit because of that.

      I actually think it's Louis telling the camera man (core?) to "shift to the camera pointing to me from stage right". The camera man/core then screws this up by panning to the right, then quickly realizes his/its mistake and shifts the camera just a fraction of a second too late. You can see the camera change starts *just slightly after the second line starts* instead of *exactly when the second line starts*. Which is still super amazing attention to detail.

    Honestly this is better than any of the other ones you've done, ever. I feel like this one really captures the actual depressing feel of Aperture while the others are more jokey or mysterious rather than just flat out sad. This is just wonderfully well made. Portal is still probably the most well made game in existence storywise, having both extremely dark sides and being very hilarious. It's ridiculously difficult to pull that off well without being too biased to one side or another. The only other game I've played that remotely came close is Stanley Parable.

      I may be mistaken, but it's probably an intentional joke about bassists. There's a whole joke-y culture within some music circles of making fun of bassists for not being important, which is objectively not true, as bass is a very important instrument due to it doing things like providing rhythmic elements to ensembles, and many many other reasons, but unfortunately outside of music circles, bass doesn't get the recognition it deserves, and that's where those in-jokes come from.
