Lyrics:
Hello, subject three-nine-ten.
We’ve come to test with you again.
Because there are quotas that we aren’t keeping.
We’ll never meet them if you’re left sleeping.
And if the Samba themes we beamed into your brain,
Still remain...
It’s just the sound of science.
We kept you dreaming peaceful while.
We arranged our portal tiles.
'Neath our heartless master’s watchful eye.
You’ll cheat death for us to analyse.
Or you’ll be stabbed by the spikes of a moving wall,
That crush your skull...
That’s just the sound of science.
And when you reach the exit-door,
You’ll find ten thousand chambers more.
Although we’re not sure what the data means...
You’ll face acid pits and laser beams!
As machine-guns ring and turrets sing your name,
As they take aim...
It’s just the sound of science.
Fire your portal gun in vain...
Each catwalk leads back whence you came...
Hear our words and try to understand;
We do what we must because we can!
And when you’re bested by our tests and left to fall...
...as do they all...
You heed the call of science!
One by one they bowed and prayed...
For the chocolate cake she made.
And should you reach the day your science is done...
You’ll assume the party position.
And be escorted to the room full of cake and definitely not full of flames.
But if there’s pain...
Your screams are just the sounds of science....

"Hear our words and try to understand
we do what we must because we can"
This is pure gold
That's a lyric from Portal 1's song "Still alive"
this was a triumph
Hey! A brother!
That was a bunch of breathtakingness
I love this community
It actually does reflect how terrifying the base concept of Portal is...
Yeah fcking lunatics. And the funny thing is gamers praising Cave, who was a military psycho
@GalaxyVerse Cave Johnson. The founder and CEO of Aperture Science
The entire premise is hillarious.
“Though we’re not sure what the data means”
Entire concept of test subjects
@GalaxyVerse Cave Johnson, he owns the place
You know, realizing how many people are either still kept in tanks or how many dead bodies may still be in the facility is actually horrific
GLaDOS is very meticulous with her cleaning. If you stumble on a corpse then she needs to absolutely destroy every android, personality sphere and turret left in the building and start from scratch. She'll do it too, she has plenty of time.
@@kirielvids but what about when Wheatly mentions shaking skeletons out of old test chambers to try and kill us with? GLaDOS says, "skeletons... right... i guess I did stockpile a few tests"
@@generalcodsworth4417 I guess you're right, but Aperture is a big facility, maybe she was planning on getting around to those ones.
Well it's better than what we did
At black mesa
I thought it was implied in Portal 2 that Chell was the only one left alive.
This makes me want to play Portal more than any trailer or review ever could
Same, I'm At work watching this right now, wanna go home and play portal.... This is a masterpiece
why have you not already started playing portal its like the best game ever
@@imnotbadokbro more like why is he watching yt at work
im the thousandth like
actually just because of this masterpiece I bought Portal & Portal 2 a couple days ago - and finally I understood what this "cake and party position" thing is about...
This is art. You will hear a buzzer. When you hear the buzzer, stare at the art.
You should now feel mentally reinvigorated. If you suspect staring at art has not provided the required intellectual sustenance, reflect briefly on this classical music.
This statement is [TRUE]
This channel is art

It's so good my husband came running in thinking it was a Portal 3 trailer. His disappointment was only calmed by how awesome this is lol.
Sad
Gotta admit, I deeply wish it /was/ a Portal 3 trailer.
@@CyberiusT same here :/
Dont expect steam to put out anything again. It's all about the store for them. Honestly, though Microsoft is going to win that one in the end with free Xbox pc cross-play. Not to mention having you save data crossover as well.
I'd like to congratulate you on your choice of both the videos that you watch and your husband. You have excellent taste.
They are singing about how you might die or never escape and yet it's so peaceful, I love it.
We’re moved by emotion, not words. If it makes us feel peaceful, we’ll behave peacefully (this started as a funny quip comment, then got weirdly serious - I blame the song 😉 )
@@normalityrelief it really makes sense. I am sometimes moved to tears by parody songs and I couldn’t put my finger on why, than you for that
Seems pretty in brand for the franchise.
Turrets: "Or you'll be staaaaaasbed, by the spikes of a moveing waaaaaaall.... that crush your skuuuuuull"
Me: "sounds lovely."
It's quite fitting with the original song, too.
The words might be less violent, but there is no escape
"The turrets sing your name" is one of the scariest phrases I've ever heard.
"...but if there's pain... Your screams are just the sounds... Of science."
scarier than that? 👀
"As they take aim"
I see that portalable surface behind the turret in the "Cake" room. And i think we all know what that means...
Damn, that's some great attention to detail.
Holy shit, I never noticed it until now! But what we don't know is whether Chell had the portal gun when she walked in. Her stance assumes that of holding a portal gun, but we can't see it.
hOLY SHIT IT'S SCHRODINGER'S CAT ALL OVER AGAIN
Schrodinger's lab rat.
Chell won't post this gesture if she isn't holding a portal gun .w. So I guess the next scene will be like ''Shutting down."
This may be true,but were missing one critical component for chells escape:
She needs to make another portal to pop out through the other and the floor isn't portal-compatible and the walls seem to be covered all over with incinerators, I assume. The only possibility would be, that she can make a portal on the backside of the wall that she entered the room through or on the door, again, if they are portal compatible.
I was really enjoying this thinking: "Harry you've done it again!" then it got dark... real fast.
Harry... you've actually done it again...
Yeah, that tends to happen when you collaborate with The Stupendium for lyrics.
Amazing songs. Depressing songs, but amazing songs none the less.
Bruh it inspired by "hello darkness my old friend"
Goldenary Gold
We know
Your not a fucking genius
It’s a parody
And he had to get all the scenes and get the voices to make this song
Goldenary Gold r/woooosh
Ha....ha...ha.......Chell is the impossible-to-kill type,she must have escaped the bake room
When you look at the turrets, if they are moving and looking around, they look very nice and friendly, but when they aren't emoting or moving, simply staring forward they immediately become terrifying
Me and my husband just found this- WTH - were amazed- we were like “where did he get that footage?” Wait-what? He made it?!? Dude! Woah!!

You're obviously confusing art with science.
No, this is SCIENCE in it's purest form.
how could you watch this working for Valve and not think: "we should go back, we should make art again, set a new higher standard".
The shot with the coffins really drives home just how brutal and uncaring the world of the Aperture Science test labs really is.
GLADOS would never have bothered with coffins. Incinerators or pools of acid would suffice.
and how humans are in real life
for me it is more likely all the incubators full of subjects
@@michaelbennett7561 ...which brings it to a whole new level, really. There must be "decent" employees bothering with the coffins to bury their victims in...
I love how the turrets slowly transition from unison singing to chords. Like they start unison then leak into chords and more and more until it’s all chords. It’s amazing!
Your comment intrigued me, what exactly do you mean by transitioning from unison to chords? Not really an expert on musical techniques, but I'm curious nonetheless!
Vlad L. Unison means they’re all playing roughly the same notes, then chords means they’re... well, playing chords lol
Yeah, how many notes are playing at once. Like at first they’re all singing the one note and then they slowly break into more and more notes at once until all 5 are on a different note. It’s a really neat drama builder and it’s amazing how incrementally it’s done
You can hear it really well at 1:10
Absolutely, the way they build towards harmonizing so beautifully is really haunting. I love everything about this 😊
"we do what we must because we can"
that was a great throwback line. love it.

Found this by accident a couple of days ago and now is saved to my play list.
It's absolutely beautiful.
I loved the original by Simon & Garfunkel and your version does it proud.
Well done!
I used to play Portal and Portal 2 back in the day & this makes me want to set up one of my old consoles to play it again.

Why are comments taking lines from the video and making no comment on them so popular?
spiraling forevermore
one by one they bowed and prayed, then we poisoned the chocolate cake,for them all
Misread title as "Portal - The Sound Of Silence" and thought it would be funny to hear that song sung by GLaDOS.
What I actually got was nothing short of a masterpiece :)
How come I only discover this masterpiece now ? It's magnificient.
Instantly subscribed.
I love so much the fluid movements and protagonism of Chell here, Harry has never give her that much atention before, is incredible, as always.
He did an amazing job!
yeah i dont think he gave her irises at all back then
Harry S2FM was released will you learn to use it or no
Imagine for a minute... That Valve used this to announce Portal 3..
I was thinking this too! "We kept you dreaming peaceful while we arranged our portal tiles" could mean that they made a game while the franchise and fanbase slowly died down.
Well Valve and rhw number 3...
Valve doesn't believe in the number 3.
That would be cool. But i just want to say Portal 3 could not really happen, atleast for the story of chell. Chell escaped. it would be sad for her to be stuck in aperture science, for whatever reason. And plus her ending was also kind of bad, Portal 2 is after millions of years! Past civilizations fall. (and how Portal is in with the universe of Half Life 2. Which means the combine crushed society before Portal 2's end. )There could be a story for another subject, though.
Almost was convinced it was at first...
I'm not usually one who glomps onto a different version of a song, when I've heard one form before the other. However, this was so well done that it's starting to replace the original in my brain. Bravo and thank you for making this. It continues to bring me joy
It still remains?
There's a peculiar feeling I get every single time I watch/listen to this. It is a feeling of nostalgic comfort and I really like it. Amazing job on literally EVERYTHING in this art! It really feels and sounds like this BELONGS in a Portal game. Everything is perfect.
The lyrics may be dark, but I can't help that the turret voices are strangely calming.
They were intended to be. Turrets were initially designed to be babysitters
Lyrics are as dark as some of history of out past..
@@nickady2752 Until they began to provide 60 percent more bullet per bullet.
Maybe even more calming than the original lyrics?
I had to fix a problem with the grammer, I used the voice thingy on mobile
Everyone is gushing about the animation, but I can’t get over how incredible this SOUNDS. Like, holy shit the depth of the sound field, the layers of vocals (including harmonizing!), and how it just builds... I’m stunned. Incredible job!
Right!? I'm so happy it's available on Bandcamp - it may be overkill but, I _need_ to experience this in all it's flac-y goodness.
it's the sound of science
I hope you know it's a cover ^^
Perfect comment. You just saved me brain time to think about a good comment here.
Amazing work, be justifiably proud of this!
This is weirdly horrifying. It so viscerally captures the horror that is _Portal_ that the game doesn't really address.
"Bake room".
Dang that was good.
The shot of Chell running down the catwalk while the crushers collide behind her is absolutely *breathtaking*
I couldn't agree more. I can't count how many times I've watched it.
You’re breathtaking!
Indeed one of the best choreographed shots i have seen in quite some time. NICELY DONE for the whole clip and ESPECIALLY for this short shot. Bravo!

this is scarily good. the music, the animation and everything. this gave me goosebumps. this isn't a parody, this is pure art
Even tho its is "art" anyone could "probably" make this with some edits.
This isn't art. This is science.
Very true, maybe even better than his past animations.
@@ILOVENUKACOLA shut up, this is pure art
Not saying that its not perfection.
Dear God...this is hauntingly beautiful.
You've perfectly captured the horror of Aperture Science within this song and video...as well as Chell's endless determination and tenacity. The shots of within the test chambers, her exit to see 'ten thousand more', her dogged defiance and moments of frustrated despair, lonliness, fear, and the scenes of those who have fallen and failed within Aperture are hypnotizing.
The last scene is masterful. The intentional open-endedness to it allows for the possibility that, despite being surrounded by walls of flame, Chell could find a way out. The turrets are apathetic, and at once cheerful and nightmarish.
The Stupendium's lyrics emphasise the enormity, the hopelessness and the constant cycle of endless testing within the walls of Aperture. Gleaming Facades and hi-tech machines, built on nightmares and death.
Harry, you've done it again. A work of art from the world of Portal. I'm getting this on Itunes. Thank you.
Sure, but I hope I never get literally captured by Aperture science
I couldn't agree more with your analysis.
I also enjoyed the beginning, the turrets' song and the image of sleeping Chell made scene seem innocent, I think I even spot a *small smile* on the sleeping Chell's lips. The feeling is of turrets gently waking a young woman to work. Even the Samba beamed into her brain feels like something she might have volunteered to...
Then the image transitions to liquid filled containers, in neat factory lines, with people inside... and the lyrics are saying how the people are *kept* asleep until the tests, and the feeling of a lullaby disappears.
For me,the Aperture Science laboratory is a perfect(sic) visualization of absolute evil. Glados would gladly test even Satan and God if at all possible. Satan at least notices that you're alive (meaning you have an intrinsic meaning that he presumably hates). Glados just extinguishes meaning, while at the same time not gaining meaning/purpose itself.
Пожалейте русского, у меня чип расплавится пока я эти переведу!
Kinda reminds me of my everyday life...well said!
This is the scariest song I have heard in my life. Powerful.
2:21, I have no idea why, but looking back at this, I can imagine that entire menacing line of turrets asking you for help with some sort of rogue AI trying to affect GLaDOS. I don't know why, but the idea of the turrets going out of their way not to shoot and to ask you for assistance...... that somehow scares me more and I love it!!
3:14 in this hypothetical situation, the thought of the turrets leading you willingly into a death room and watching over you as you die so GLaDOS doesn't find out that they asked you for help somehow feels very on-brand for them
Alternative idea, those turrets being controlled or overridden by the rogue AI that wants help, not necessarily GLaDOS needing assistance. Sort of like an AI vs AI silent war
Which would be an excellent plot hook for Portal 3 (You're welcome, Valve). Can even make it a full and proper tie-in with Half Life.
Now, if only Valve knew how to count to 3.
I love how the aperture logo shines brighter as the turrets sing "We do what we must because we can."
We do what we must to make a better future for all mankind because we can.
I wouldn't be surprised honestly if the whole song was written in part to stick that absolutely perfect reference in it.
This song highlights it in such a sad/horrifying way that Still Alive doesn't. The robots have no choice, they must do it. "Hear [their] words and try to understand." It's almost pleading in a desperate way. "I'm sorry, we *must* do this."
Why must they? Just because they can. Someone said "We can do this, so let's", and now the monster has been created and unleashed. "For science"
@Ethan man I know, I was just pointing out that it was a cool addition to the video.
@Noah Black the motto of Aperture Science is “We do what we must because we can”. Here at Blaperture we do what we must to make a better tomorrow for all mankind because we can.
@Ethan man no sh*t.
"We do what we must because we can"
Sweet mercy that gives me chills. That is some skillful lyric delivery, and a grade A callback.
I be honest, this is how I would feel ruining the tests
I can’t stop watching that part.
I got to that part and my brain just blew. “OH, WoW, wAAAw, so g00d! PoRtAL LyRiCs iN a P0rTaL s0nG! 👌👏👌👏” wasn’t expecting the great reference to one of the best video game songs. 10/10

wow, well done. The attention to small details really sells it - ie when the dorm/hotel door is first opened, it fully opens and then bounces back just so slightly.
I initially wondered if it was filmed then some CGI applied to make it look, well, CGI. But no, it's crazy animation and mocap! And I don't even dare to think how long it took to render!

@@jameskotter2920 Yeah, there are a very few that are different
There are 3 reasons I love this. One, it shows the attitude of aperture science, doing it "because we can", "though we don't know what the data means". A truly morbid and scary attitude. 2 The music is created very reflective of that from music from the portal series. 3, The "camera shots" especially the one of the flames through the turrets eye is extremely effective! Again this enforces the aperture attitude... This is the best portal song I've heard in a while! (Edit) -Horrible grammar, corrected...
It also covers unconventional facts or things, like the mass graves of Apature, thats something I've never considered or even thought about
@@local38on-tv Because probably incinerating leaves nothing to the casket.
Of all of the great parodies, I like this one the best. There is something about the hauntingly beautiful song coupled with the parody lyrics that really works so well. And all of the details in the video (example: the texture on the turrets). So cool!

Let's be honest, turrets missed their true calling, and while I'm sure shooting test subjects is fun, I think they like to sing even more!
dont forget, they were sold as home security units and to the military. I think the singing ability was given to them by GLaDOS but they might have had it before her in order to sing lullabys or war cries. although, most likely they sang lullabies to the enemy soldiers and shot the babies
We all like singing in the shower. Theirs is metal......

Me: "WOT?! ARE YOU STILL ALIVE?!"
He truly is still alive, isn't he?
How am I only just now discovering this masterpiece?
This shows just how dark the portal games are. I never really thought about other subjects like that. But the idea that they prayed only to get killed is so dark to me.
I'm not crying

I'm just leaking science
Oh God there's science everywhere!
Cave Johnson- We can make moon rocks out of this
@@Harry101UK In fact about 66 percent of the known world is covered in science! You also, consist to sixty percent out of science!
@@overfailed3639 That's 126%
It's just tears
This is so freaking adorable
Terrifying,
But so freaking adorable
Isn't that was portal is all about?
Adorrifying.

BRO THIS CHANGED MY LIFE
I can not recall the last time I saw something so brilliant.
Not an exaggeration!
There's something so viscerally dystopian and beautiful about the test subjects praying to the cake, like it really is this holy relic that no one's seen before. The tone of this whole video is breathtaking.
Well, I never played Portal 2, but it's interesting that I was so busy laughing that I never really took the time to visualize exactly how dark the series was. Harry manages to show us that Portal 2, if you think about it, is nothing less than a horror game with a comic overtone.
When i saw that man fall to his knees at 2:48, before I saw cake in the next scene, I thought; Man GlaDOS really is heartless. Those test subjects may have been suck in the facility since forever and now being lucky enough to pass through all the test chambers that man bows and thanks the Lord. Only he doesn't know that GLaDOS kills her test subjects after the 'Science' is done. Even though aperature labs may have won the portal technology race against Black Mesa ages ago, but GLaDOS still continues her brutal ways with those test subjects. Of course, they have never seen that cake before just shows how isolated their life has been as test subjects. Slavery to GLaDOS' "Science".
And this horrifying dystopian setting is best punctuated at 3:14
@@derekreer8625 a analogy of life going test to test hoping to get a cake and eat it yet there is no cake its death...... day after day working for what??????? to get food, water and all needed to survive. its sad how stupid humanity became to the painfully obvious.
@@antlerr Oh, look, an edgy teenager in an existential crisis. I guess I'm going to get all mopey and depressed, for he has thought of all the things I never have.
Hahaha, just kidding. Grow an upper lip, kid. That's life, deal with it.
Chell's fine, by the way. She can just load a quicksave.
Just don't tell Glados how to access quicksave technology.
btw that isn't chell

We do what we must because we can god that part hits hard
This is so very well done.
The writing, the vocals, the harmony... then there's the animation.
This is top tier work that normally could only be achieved by corporations with a full team working on the project.
I want to like but I cant... leave it at 69
The Astartes series would like to have a word :P
But I do agree that it's extremely well made and the song is haunting
I'm sure corporations and especially unemployed college grads would love us to believe this, but the truth is that more people are only necessary when they're making something they don't care about. A small team or an individual working on something they're passionate about will beat a large company churning out content almost every time.
Exactly, most of the time, a lot of these "parody" type songs are brought down by really bad lyrics or music composition, but this fit so well and they nailed everything Portal.
Except they don't achieve it. So the accurate quote is "This could only be achieved by a dedicated fan without pay"
This your best parody. Or maybe I just like Simon and Garfunkel.
Personally both
@@yardstick1851 idc this is art!
It's both and I like Simon and Garfunkel to
I cannot upvote this enough. Fantastic.
Genius, I'm crying here..
