Michael Lanning How'd you find these? (BTW I think you're amazing and your version of Honor Bound makes me cry more than any other song from the musical)
Soichiro is very metronomic, if you notice.... he's almost exactly on the beat, and stays steady the whole time. As soon as Light comes in, the steady beat disappears, and he swings the beat to his will.... Even when they sing together, he's not exactly on the beat with his dad. He's literally crossing the line.....
I noticed that too. There are so many little details in this musical. It's a shame it never got to america. So many people don't know about this masterpiece.
Soichiro is in probably 4/4 based on the begining part I tried my best to count beats. Light is in maybe 3/4, Idk Light seems to be because he has less beats in the same measure as his dad but 3/4 throws off alot of people, if Light is singing in 3/4 however, he could he a good darksouls player-
@@unusedcellmine is "for you pay too high a cost, and you lose a piece of you" Although from the whole musical I'd have to go with "how can I ever be at ease with L? His methods lack a moral code. As for Kira he can go to hell. Taking L along down this dark and evil road"
When you think about it, Soichiro's strong sense of justice must be something that Light also inherited. But it could be, that because Soichiro raised Light to have this strong sense of justice that is one of the the reasons why Light started to write criminals names in the Death note. So in a way, Soichiro, while trying to teach about justice to Light, actually advanced the likelyhood of Light becoming Kira without knowing. The thought "criminals must be bunnished" that Light learned from his father mixed with his black and white vision of the world cave Light the moral reason to justify his deeds.
Also given the fact that the Death Note influences it's user, twisting Light's mind and reasoning, in the beginning Light only killed criminals,but as the series went on Light killed everyone who was against him,even though they were innocent.
I always felt that Soichiro's maturity and humility made him a good lawman. However, Soichiro 's example of complete devotion to the law and family may have led to Light's excessive hubris in his own charm & intelligence which in turn led to his distorted views of justice. It was boredom and curiousity that led Light to using the notebook, instead of trying to work on his personality flaws or build meaningful relationships with the people in his life.
I think this idea is greatly reflected in the song, “Honor Bound” where Soichiro questions if Kira could be “some insane, unfeeling, monster somehow raised by me”. He feels that if Light somehow is Kira, that it’s his own fault as a parent.
I really love 1:51 - 1:55. Light is echoing his father, but he doesn't repeat the entire thing. Mr. Yagami says "You don't load a gun, close your eyes, and shoot" - implying that Kira shouldn't shoot/kill in the first place - while Light says "you don't close your eyes and shoot". If you'll recall from the song Hurricane, Light compares the Death Note to a gun ("writing is the gun; I only have to aim"). When he says "you don't close your eyes and shoot", he's not saying that Kira shouldn't shoot _at all._ He's saying that Kira should "shoot" with eyes open, and a clear vision of his target. Thus, it's another subtle reflection of the fact that Light is only going along with the investigation for himself. Externally, he may be repeating what Mr. Yagami says, but internally, he's scheming for his own benefit.
What I loved in the korean and japanese Version is that Light said he'll become a god in Hurricane, during this song Soichiro said to not become a god upon yourself and Light twisted it and said he'll become a god . It truly gave me goosebumps.
Also, the difference I. Meaning when they both say you don’t kill a man as a substitute. Soichiro means you don’t kill, Kira means you don’t kill amcriminal for another
Man, the lyrics of the whole musical are more than perfect. They are so well-thought. So deep. Philosophical even. I fell in love with them with my whole self
Light, L and Soichiro always made a good and really interesting combination IMO Light is a corrupt, power hungry mass murderer who firmly believes he's doing a good to the world, and manipulates or kills anyone standing in his way to achieve his vision of the New World. L profundly disowns the actions of "Kira" and puts his life in danger to trap and stop him, yet he also manipulates people in the middle and breaks the very laws he's supposedly protecting, justifying the means to an end just like Light did. And Soichiro has probably the strongest moral code of the three, with the ends being irrelevant to him if the means are unacceptable. Even if by doing nothin or chosing the inefficient road, he's not willing to ditch his moral code and become the very monster he's trying to stop.
This song brought me to tears. As a son whom loves and admires his father, I always fear I will fail him and betray the lessons that he taught me in my attempt to become a good man like him. Light's betrayal of his father is the worst of his treacheries.
Came here from Jeremy J's voicing of Varian from Tangled... And... I'm sorry, but I'm compelled to do this: Eden Espinosa (Cassandra): "I'M CROSSING THE LIIIIIINE!"
When light's father sings the part "you don't load the gun, close your eyes and shoot" Light only repeats the "you don't close your eyes and shoot" meaning he still loaded the gun, and his eyes are still open
He'd be a good Light for a show or movie. The point of Light is to look sophisticated, easily elegant, and the type of person everyone looks up to, that they admire. A snazzy Winn would definitely be that.
I love the fact that in harmony light says "you don't close your eyes and shoot" as in hurricane he already "loaded the gun" as he said that he "just had to aim the gun"
Man... I feel kinda lucky. I managed to get the Musical in Japanese with English subtitles before it was taken down... but I don't know what to do with it now. I kinda want to share it, but I don't want to get any problems either...
Psst... You don't have it from me, but there is a Death Note musical on UA-cam.🤐 It's called 'Death Note.avi' or something. Just type in Death Note musical. I think I'll download it too. But sshh, I said nothing.🤐😁
Soichiro is such a good guy for being so angry about Lind L Taylor's death, but tbh if I had a choice between lethal injection and going out helping catch a serial killer on live TV, I'd probably help L too
You know what this reminds me of? In D&D, I loved the Alignment System: Not just Good or Evil, but also Chaotic and Lawful. Not every hero counts as a “Hero” (Most soldiers are just killers), and not every villain is heartless, (All For One still loved his brother despite being evil. I love how there are kind villains and cruel heroes, and how the line between them is almost imperceptible. That’s basically what Death Note is about: The “Hero” of the story isn’t the most pleasant, neither is the “Villain”, (AKA L), evil...
It's okay. I prefer the japanese though, cause this one light is playing innocent and lying to his dad, in the japanese one he's agreeing with his dad while twisting it to match his warped view.
my alias I absolutely think that Light is doing the same thing in this. He's agreeing with his father but he's twisting. When they sing together Light mirrors everything his father says until he skips over the line you don't load a gun and goes straight to saying you don't close your eyes and shoot. Because he agrees with everything else his father says. Like yes you don't kill someone as a substitute. Yes you don't close your eyes and shoot. But he has no problem with loading a gun. Because in hurricane he made a point to say he was handed a loaded gun that all he has to do is aim. And then he doesn't even repeat or alter his father's line about not killing someone just to read the signs because he instead replies with it not being better than bad that good defines because in his mind when he kills people to test the death notes ability he's also punishing them so it's not killing someone /just/ to read the signs. And he feels that L had no problem killing his actor just to read the signs. I think just by looking deep and hard every line Light sings shows more of his characters brilliance.
@@firstnamelastname4421 I also noticed that he avoided repeating the whole thing, cutting out some key parts. And I also noticed that when Light does sing the down beat compared to what his dad is singing- perhaps symbolizing his views may be similar but doesn't really align with his dad, in fact are practically the opposite despite them singing the same tune
This is one of my favorite songs from the musical! I love how they blend and their voices are just awesome! Also do you guys know what guitar/ukelele/piano chords this has? 'cus I don't see any on the internet ;-;
Fun fact about the guy who plays Light he is played by Jeremy Jordan who is Supergirl and plays Winn and is the musical called Bonnie and Clyde and he plays Clyde.
@*:･ﾟSee you, Space Cowboy。 Pretty much, and yet he's not nearly enough for me. Let's see--Jack, Winn, Clyde, Varian, uh...oh he was a character in the new play that just came out a few months ago, American Son. He was J.M. Barrie at the ART cast of Finding Neverland. I can't think of anything else offhand.
In the anime, Light could have been a vaguely relatable character, or at least understandable in some way, because his reasoning was allegedly "make the world better for decent people," even if he continuously failed at it. But then there was Sayu's kidnapping. Soichiro was willing to trade the most powerful weapon in the world to get his child back. Light considered killing Sayu. At that moment, Light couldn't even lie to himself about why he was being Kira, because if he wasn't trying to make a world his family could live and be safe in, what was it? Like he said, he wanted to be the god of the new world, and he gave up his humanity in pursuit of that goal. Of course, the musical is very different, but this is the thought process I had listening to this song. Light crossed the very line he claimed to have put in place.
Imagine if there was a song like this in thr Jekyll and Hyde musical. Like say Jekyll has a nightmare sequence and at one point he sees his father and a song between them comes in and it has a tone similar to the one here.
Pretty good. But I do wish they would have worked in the lines about “becoming a god” from the original Japanese version. But I guess they can’t due to Christianity being much bigger in America than Japan.
Eric Klinki The original series is extremely religious, stained glass and imagery and all, so that's part of it. He is trying to tell his son to be the best and most just person he can be, and in this Christian theme, that translates to "be like God".
This is the original version. The musical was originally written for English and only later translated to Korean and Japanese. Lyrical differences are more to do with maintaining euphony than politics.
Mr Silver everyone has a part to play in death note. Kira is the well intentioned extremist. L is the detective who's willing to go almost as far, but sees his actions as nessecary and kira's as evil. Sorichio is traditional justice, doing the right thing and holding yourself accountable. All viewpoints are relevant and nessecary to tell the story.
Basically Father: "Revenge and vigilanteism is NO substitute for law, order, and Justice!" Light, in his head: "Maybe you shpuld have THOUGHT of that before you made too many people far too angeybto CARE about peace so long as the injustice simply goes away for good"
