Village's ending with this song, the animation, how the story ties into Ethan's journey and then the line "the father's story is now done" really ties it all together. What an incredible game
Chris is also there
So true! I finished it yesterday night. Masterpiece of a game 😭🥺❤️
@M. Sami no thanks,rather have new protagonist.
@M. Sami I think the next game is the RE4 Remake anyway
Awesome🌹
This game is so good, and I'm glad they ended up making an original song for it.
Yes i love the game and soundtrack. And i'm a huge fan. I love your video's
Hello Sphere, wen want the second part of the review! :D the spoiler review! 😄
Agreed and just like the song “Go Tell Aunt Rhody” by Micheal A. Levine and Jordan Reyne it had a unique charm of beauty and fear for Resident Evil 7
K.
It sucks, youre all kidding yourselves.
as indonesian , i was amazed our traditional music become the inspiration of creating this amazing song for the game
Same here
Same
Me 2. Indo??
Ndak bisa basa enggres
me too!
1:10
So in Indonesia, there is a song genre that the singer calls "sinden" which is only sung by women. That's why the first time I heard the re8 ending credits I felt familiar with the vibe, especially in "hello my tears, because of you, I am me. Hello sorrow, because of you, I am me" and more.
And indeed this sinden genre has a very mysterious, dark, haunting melody but most of these songs have wholesome lyrics about protecting your loved ones or telling urban legends or stories like the ending song re8
That's true
Oh gitu to
Mantap bang
@Ofel Oktaf Purbayasa if you consider Aga Ujma and Brian D'Oliveira westerners, they definitely acknowledge and appreciate the country and it's culture.
@Giamm Lieddack it does sound beautiful tho... if certain genre or instrumental aspect can't reach what the composer intended, they can be as experimental as they wanted to...
The perfect song with sad ending of the game
The only letdown was the ending to me, they could have pushed a short song for the sacrifice.
Spoiler Alert, bois
tbh, he is one of my favorite character in re. the ending is make me so sad.
Girl you just spoiled the ending of a 9 hour game, be careful
@@zaqnette in the post credit scene was ethans model walking near the car. idk if he's alive but...
The song makes you feel like you want to cry.
@Ale Serem Chile please let the human feel grief over a video gam character who sacrificed his life
@Ale Serem either that or, like me and the majority of the playerbase, we got attached to Ethan Winters and the song kicked in just the right way that it influenced an emotional reaction. Ever take THAT into account?
its just sad because ethan is gone forever but highly chance he will comeback in the franchise
@Ale Serem no he/she is not a simp, he/she feels the music like I do it just has a sad ara to it
@Ale Serem shut up
OMG she’s so talented , her voice has a different taste in resident evil it makes you enjoy the game more and feel powerful ! ✨
Relax 😂
1:33 The singing style was very appropriate towards the end of the story
True true
@@nt4696 No man, it was perfect actually
You should really listen to Björk everyone was trying to figure out if it was her singing in RE8 because it sounds so similar. Surprised their is a younger woman that has Björk style.
I’m truly honored to be an OG Resident Evil fan, how much it’s changed for better or worse, it’s truly a once in a lifetime masterpiece franchise.
I 100% agree and relate with you
There's something for everyone in Resident Evil.
completely agree with you
Been here since 6. In a way. When I was a child I watched my father play it. (I’m 16 now) then wanted to play it and begged my parents xD. I have fond memories of 6. Despite how much it’s looked down upon.
You dont even need to be an OG fan to see how much has changed for better or worse
i love her voice!!
Same!!
So Was I.
@@TheProtagonist2020......... and i am iron man 😂
the main theme songs for RE7 and RE8 really have been hitting so good, thank you for blessing our ears omg
u mean aunt roadie for re7? it wasnt that amazing.
@@chaikagaz yes it was amazing
@@chaikagaz your opinion is wrong sorry
@@chaikagaz don't worry, i hated it too lol -- felt really weird hearing folk songs taking on an epic-like theme
yeap, they did good on both games. Both songs fit in the end credits very well.
Hearing this through the end almost made me cry during the first playthrough, but watching the game's ending again after knowing what happened, I just couldn't hold back my tears.
Amazing game, congratulations on the 3 millions copies sold!
It wasn’t really that emotional of a game lettuce be cereal. No tears, only dreams now
The ending left me in tears!!
A game ending hasn’t made me sadder than this
I change my mind. I still find gta 5 endings a&b sadder
I agree and felt the same way after I finished it. What a great game!
Never thought I'd get teary eyed over an RE game. From Jill Sandwich to tears.
Not ashamed to say I choked up at this ending. This song, the animated short story, and its thematic importance to the game just spoke to me on a personal level. Together RE7 and RE8 tells such as beautiful story of a Father and Daughter and I love it. Thank you Capcom
Same here. I can say with confidence that this is the first Resident Evil game that actually made me tear up.
The things Ethan will do for the love of his wife and daughter. Mad respect to him
The perfect song to end the game off on. Absolutely beautiful
100 percentage agreed
More like end to Ethan's story
If this game doesn't get a SINGLE award on the goty site they are totally heartless and blind of how beautiful the music and gameplay is.
Last of us 2 will win again unfortunately
and the award goes to .... LAST OF US 2 AGAIN!!
@@xuavy5036 that was last year. Not this year.
Okay but honestly I think despite Cyberpunk being a pretty meh game the music was incredible so I think it will win that award.
@@wakkjobbwizard That was also 2020 though.
Just checked her IG and found out she loves to play Indonesia's music instruments called Sasando, cool girl you're very talented. I appreciate that, thanks for loving instruments from my country 😊
Yeah lagunya juga ada vibe-vibe sinden juga kan yah

@@nt4696 well hi! 🙂
@@GrumpyFish105 🤤
You made something special with this game, Capcom. Take a bow, everyone who worked on this game.
Capcom has outdone itself again and I think it is the hope for players to reach an excellent story level in the games
Yeah, Capcom started to do great things in recent year starting with RE 7, the remake of RE 2, RE 3 (I know some people are bashing this game but if you compared it to RE 5 & 6, it's a lot better game) and now this, RE 8.
@@freddyrajali889 Don't forget devil may cry 5 and the new monster hunters, capcom is back to it's glory days
I’ve always loved how raw and visceral the percussion instruments and strings were in this track especially near the end where it sounds incredibly rugged and rustic, untamed like the village itself
I really hope we get some expansion dlc around the Lords of the game, like the Bakers in Resi 7.
I agree, would be so cool.
Yes. We need dlc of Chris and his team going to the bsaa hq. Like the Not A Hero dlc from 7. And dlc of how the lords got infected like 'Daughters' dlc from 7
@@dewaalvandercolff251 thought that was explained they were test subjects and the girls were as well but deemed as absolute failure so she gave them as a gift to lady D they surely explained the puppet maiden since was very shy with an illness
There's Ada concept art that was cut from the game. So maybe that's going to be dlc.
@@dewaalvandercolff251 exactly what I said, most likely that will happen
Love this song, such a powerful ending
❤️
@@ethanwinters7716 :)
This music made me cry.. There’s something magical about this song
This song made me cry when the game ends.
Play it again in shadow difficulty
@@brenegadde1278 now the difficulty made me cry 😂
No until you've unlocked the infinite ammo for magnum lmao
@@MaiyagyGery it made me cry and roll on the floor because it was so difficult with that hardest difficulty.
Ok
They better hire these guys for RE9. Masterpiece song
Yeah you're right ❤️👍😭😭😭
>>Ethan Winters: Where’s Rose?
She’s everything to me.
I was instantly covered in chills hearing this song for the first time. Sounds like a mix between my favorite singers, Björk and Aurora. Beautifully haunting, especially paired with the animation.
she says it was a challenge to sing this song and i say it was a challenge she succeeded on! I got chills when i got to the credits and heard it. the game is absolutely beautiful and fascinating and the song accentuates those feelings of darkness and fear but constantly being hopeful that something will change so well.
Her voice gives me chills , so beautiful, it's like and angle singing. Much love
Ethan story has broken me the ending is yet so beautiful and yet so sad I have attached myself with Ethan winter's ND his caractors was heartfelt his interactions with other caractors was amazing
❤️
Every character is so well done, I was attached to the them the moment I saw them....
Heartfelt huh :p
Ethan the Unknown Champion as William Upshore from Outlast
@M. Sami Continue crying and hating in some comment sections. It won't change that he existed in two RE games, had a good story and you have to wait for a future RE game to have one of the og characters.
They did what they wanted with it and it worked out fine. Great, actually. Even though Ethan was a bit unreactive, he also didn't say much because he was supposed to be an everyman. Someone normal without *'cool badass military training'* or something like that.
This game was a masterpiece, In the past five years we got four amazing games, thank you capcom for your talent.
in my opinion 3's remake was not the best... they cut out too much of the original.
@@BrickWallProductions6934 RE3 wasn't really a good remake but it was still a good game in its own right.
P😍ERFECT
She is SO TALENTED! She sings like an apocalypse angel. Love her. A big fan from now
It really fits in the story! The song is phenomenal after hearing it in the credits. Looking forward for RE9!
Capcom, everything in Resident Evil VILLAGE is amazing.
It's a masterpiece. Thank you.
Fucking GOOSEBUMPS. Thank you Capcom for another masterpiece. Never change please.
She did a AMAZING job. The animation is so fluid. Especially the ending part with the father and the witch
3:53
That because of you
It's so beautiful ❤️
I absolutely adore this song. It fit the games themes beautifully and gave a real sense of revelation, discovering something vast and fantastical. The sense of urgency and sorrow in her voice is amazing. Gives me chills every time. It wasn’t playing at that point but my mind pairs this song with the moment Ethan steps out of the tree line to see castle Dimitrescu for the first time.
I cried at the end because I just thought ethan had succeeded in coming to this scary village. He saved his daughter.
Crazy how so many things can come by just.. chance.
Best RE OST. ❤
BEAUTIFUL game.
The passion for it can be felt in each and every single one of its aspects.
P.S. I'm a RE vet (25+ years of being a fan of the franchise) and Village is truly inspiring and everyone, RE fan or not, should experience it.
Masterpiece. In its all aspects. 10/10
As a musician and a RE fan, this video is absolutely awesome
After playing through that entire game, then hearing her voice it just hits different.
So this is the “go tell aunt Rhody” for resident evil village
But 10x better
@@rattlingmender1648 no they are both great in their own ways
The sounds in this game are so ''perfect''
@Let's Talk 🧢
This made me feel so much when I first heard it, very powerful song. Outstanding.
As someone that feels empty without the right kind of music and sound in a game, movie and all that- this song just really captured everything perfectly. It completes the whole thing. It's so unique and gives you those chills of how great and how creepy it is at the same time, It really gave me that *woahhhhhh* feeling. Her voice is so amazing too, it fits it amazingly. It's the perfect piece for the game!!
This vid really made me realize how much effort it takes to actually make a good game, but this game is over the top, in a positive way. After completely watching the series of yt vids about this game, I really enjoyed the game, sound effects, and music. I really appreciate the community that successfully produced this game. I'm proud of the result and extremely EXCITED for the next Resident Evil game even though I can't afford and play it. Thank you so much for putting so much effort to make such an amazing game.
It's so heartwarming for me to see Poles being such a big part of the game. Both her and Helena did such an amazing job.
Whoops, I thought it could have been Björk when I first heard it in game 😅 beautiful song, I loved the way it tied up the ending.
Good call. it seems me and you are the only ones whove commented on that so far! you have good ears~
@@pookienumnums thanks, yea I thought there might be another mention somewhere of the similarity but I guess there isn't much crossover between Björk and Resident Evil fans 😅 but hey, a few people liked my comment, so we aren't totally alone!
I was thinking the same, the way she sings remindes me of bjork, both of them are very talented 💕
Reminds me of Bjork indeed
When I first heard it, my brain was constantly switching between "it's Björk" and "it's Elsiane" :)
Played for the shlock. wasn't expecting the end to be so impactful. the way he says goodbye to his daughter nearly brought a tear to my eye...
Her talking is so smooth & calm & relaxing 😍🥰☺️🤤😴🥱
I get goosebumps every time I listen to this song.
This song and her accent gave me goosebumps
This work is a masterpiece just like Resident Evil Village is! I'm very impressed while playing the game and at the credits,this... Resident Evil Village deserves to get Game of the Year !
I love this entire game and every thing about it, especially the soundtrack. Such an interesting world/atmosphere they did for Village cant wait for RE9
I will tell you all that I was here. We witnessed the greatest horror games.
Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil 8 were truly phenomenal. Love you, Capcom.
Aga Ujma! I still can't believe that you're in my favourite Franchise ever! . I'm really proud of you!
am i the only one who cried on launch trailer after completing the game? and on this song? it's so beautiful
You are not alone
Everyone cried
A masterpiece!
this song was literally perfect for the ending
I love this song, really do. It feels chill, lost, lonely but beautiful crafted. Not seen this kind of music often.
there are so many talents out there and we barely know them! `Congratulations on this incredible performance and beautiful voice!
omg... my favourite games are part of my country?? soo proud.. Aga Ujma kaakk suaranya bagus banget :'((
Honestly, when I beat the game and watched the village of shadows animation, it was one thing to realize how that story connected to Ethan’s story. I record gameplay videos, so when the credits start I’d usually turn off my mike, keep the recording going and leave the room for five to ten minutes and let the credits roll to edit later.
But when this song kicked in I got so entranced and stayed to listen and it was gloriously beautiful. This truly is a beautiful piece of art this team created.
the string pluckings in the middle of that song was a nice touch to the creepy and mystery tone
this song makes me so emotional. idk why. it strikes me in such a primal way. it's also something that i connect to my favorite resident evil game
INDONESIAN Instrument, I knew the sounds something similar. Heck yeah
Indopride
wow 😂 bangga indo wkwk
Bangga lah
gk semua sih bro tapi dia campur semua instrumen termasuk indo
1:10 the harp-like indonesian instrument that they're looking for named sasando, From East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia.
As an indonesian, i feel thankful for including indonesian instrument as one of your inspiration to make RE:Village Music, Indonesia has so many musical instrument that you can explore more!
It must've been really difficult to overcome "don't tell aunt Rhody", but you did it guys, congratulations
Fantastic song Capcom!
Since I heard it in Launch Trailer I had to find it and I did,so I heard it over 50 times before I even beat the game.
It's so mysterious,creepy,unique and powerful especially when you finish the game.
I could have sworn that Resident Evil Village would not have a song at the level of "Go Tell Aunt Rhody" because it had not been released in any trailer or anything like that. But I was surprised that Wonderful music
Pao🍞
It is in the 4th trailer and launch trailer but thank God I didn't watch the launch trailer, it spoils a lot.
It really is a beautiful song. This with the end really made me ugly cry when I finished the game. It really made the entire experience emotional.
Such a beautiful dark gothic, but almost soothing sound of a song. She is very talented singer & her used of Indonesian musical instruments in her music like gamelan & sasando is a BIG PLUS imo LOL
I am really pleased that there are people like this man who visibly really like the job he does and puts an immense passion into it.
Such an amazing theme that fits the weirdness of RE8. Love it!
I remember getting the original RE when it came out on the Playstation, it's been so dope to see it grow into what it is today. Village is best game of 2021 IMO
Thank you so much for this great game , Ethan 😔❤️
You’re very welcome ❤️
@@ethanwinters7716 wait . you are dead .
OMFG I WAS LOCKING FOR THIS EVERYWHERE
Thanks sooo much 🙏🏻🙏🏻
It is worth it
She’s so cute and OMG her voice is so amazing, such a great range!
I cry every time I listen to this. because it's so beautiful.
game of the year
Yes, indeed😍
I’m so happy the resident evil music department is producing such amazing end themes for the recent themes like re7’s Don’t Tell Aunt Rhody to re2 remake’s Saudade and now this, this one is my personal fav by quite a stretch
It was a beautiful and chilling song👏👌
Good job to the team and Agnes what a talented singer☺️🎵
God I’m just so obsessed with this song, I can’t stop listening to it. It’s so beautiful and raw and full of emotion and perfect for the Ethans story. And the fact that the soundtrack became available on my birthday just felt like a personal gift from Capcom.
The ending is emotional Ethan died 😭😭😭 I miss Ethan is the best dad
Just let it go. Future with capcom.. See Dino Crisis
@@bangbagas1006 ❓
This game absolutely blew my mind! Thank you for creating what I believe to be the best resident evil game!
Why hasn’t this soundtrack showed up on iTunes yet?!
It’s available May 12th.
One of the best songs for a game since forever. Awesome 👏🏻
Her voice is amazing
And so is this song
I honestly love this song so much, the story for Resident Evil Village was amazing! I listen to this song about three times a day and each time I listen to it, it always gives me chills! Great job!
She has such a unique voice! Amazing game, can't wait for 9.
If they don’t perform this at the Game Awards later this year I’ll riot 😩
Fckng love this theme! Well done Brain D'Oliveira and Aga Ujima!
It's beautiful to see how music and gaming go hand in hand
I’m honestly surprised that Chris squad actually survived the horror💀💀😳😳😳
Capcom just created a hell of a masterpiece with the Winters story. Just amazing, splendid
Am a born RE fan
Chris is best character
@@dogifish0078 Chris plays a big role in this game
This is such a hauntingly beautiful song, perfectly encapsulates the sorrow of Res Evil Village
Love the game and love the song! It was an amazing production... Can't wait for the DLCs to come. I really enjoyed playing it on my Xbox One S ❤️🎀✨
I totally speechless!!.
Man what a game! .
In the end I literally cried..
Hats off to the team 🙏🙏...
this song was perfect for the bittersweet ending of this game. well done capcom!
