Raphael's theme, enough said
Karlach’s voice actress, Samatha Beart, used this song in her streamed play-through of Baldur’s Gate 3. I love that the voice actors are involved with the fandom and playing the game themselves. 😁
First Jonathan and now Colm making a Karlach song? and the fact that they are released back to back.
I was wondering if this was a cover of Jon's song lol
They're both so good, and so different. And now they need to cover each other's songs 🙂
Its a conspiracy!
And both on my playlist as it should be😂😂😂
"That man is into Muscle Girls!"
"What true-man isn't into Muscle Girls?!"
I know this is just supposed to be a Karlach song, but as a war veteran with PTSD, I identify with the lyrics all too well. I tear up every time I hear it. Thanks, Colm, for writing into song what I sometimes can't say myself.
Hey regardless of country, I'm glad you're still with us and holding strong. I'm sorry you suffer but know that you did something that most people only dream of and you have my deepest respect. Never ever feel ashamed of shedding tears.
It makes sense sadly. Kalach was forced to do terrible things in a war she never even wanted to be in. I have talked to a lot of Vietnam Vet that had this feeling too. Regardless of the war or the country, it makes sense to connect. Hell I have never been in war, but I feel so much connection to this to with PTSD from "war" with certain parts of society and things I have been though. Take care of yourself
@@etherealboomslang991except Russia. No, I'm not sorry. I am Russian.
Let me add one more word to this then:
Thanks man. For everything
Did not see this coming, dear gods it's incredible.
All the love for our Baebarian Karlach.
Bae-barian, Bae-zel, Shadow-bae, Milf-ara, Bae-hira.
Lol stop 😂@@IndigoIndustrial
@@francescapiedrahita4614ass-stare-ion? Lol
Dude, now you are morally obligated to make a song for each companion you know this right?
AGREED
it’s been 7 months and i still have hope it will happen
"Revenge and redemption both tread the same lines"
This entire song is such a good overview of the pain beneath Karlach's tough front. Killed it my friend!
clapclapclapclapclapclapclap
pls sign my brain tadpole
that line is so poignant, I love it! Also just recognised your name from the BG3 song with jonathan and colm, you were incredible! would love to see BG3 covers/songs from you!
@@RachelHardythe tape tadpole squirms happily as you click play again. As the music plays, you feel a connection brush against your mind. It recognizes it's own kind...
@@RachelHardy It's adorable that you and Colm have continued the "pls sign my ___" bit for so long 😂 I hope it never stops and extra hope for another collab in the future. 😊 🎉
"Revenge and Redemption both tread the same lines" is such a good line.
I love how some UA-camrs have basically become Bards, singing the tales of the differnet Companions like they are part of that world. It makes the game feel more real
For those of you who have also run the adventure Descent Into Avernus, there's something to be said about how this song quietly highlights how much Zariel and Karlach's stories have in common and how much of a foil Karlach is for Zariel's fall from grace. I think it's absolutely a shame that we didn't get any scenes with Zariel in the game itself, because there's something poignant that could've been done there.
Possibly DLC content?
@user-mu8dm4rk7g They've already said they won't do DLC, I think.
Full Lyrics:
Far off on the risen road
Sits demonsbane
Plagued by the scars and
The thoughts that remain
A way to resolve but
No way to forget
Unchained and Unshackled
But bound by regret
Twisted in Torment
As you waged his war
You were adorned in
The weight of their souls
How to atone
And to wash what you've seen
Hands forced by another
But stained all the same
Clawed up from below
You escaped from the nine
Revenge and Redemption
Both tread the same lines
Twisted in Torment
As you waged his war
You were adorned in
The weight of their souls
Mistress of War
After you made them fall
You were adorned in
The weight of us all
Twisted in Torment
As you waged his war
You were adorned in
The weight of their souls
Mistress of War
After you made them fall
You were adorned in
The weight of us all
As much as I love Devil With a Heart of Iron, I love this even more. It just moves me more, y'know?
Did not expect a BG3 song here... I'm all for it.
More please, this game is amazing
Now you also need to do one for every companion.
PLEASE
And for every player class, subclass and race combination!
My favorite musician singing about my favorite Baldur's gate companion!! ❤
Glad you're back, Colm!
That subtle Gortash reference gave me chills. Love this song. Maybe Gale or Jaheira next?
It's even better since it could refer to Gortash OR Asmodeus.
Also yes, I agree there needs to be some more Jaheira appreciation.
@@dropkickpiper3204 I didn't even think of Asmodeus, but obviously he would have a claw in everything that's happening in the Hells.
@@thelorewright Much more than that! By most Lore implications, he STARTED the Blood War to gather power and raise himself to godhood. It is quite literally HIS war.
Dear Sir, I didn't even play Baldur's Gate, but oh Gods, this song is soooo amazing, I've been listening it on repeat three days in a row, and I still love it. Just THANK YOU, PLEASE DO MORE
I didn't know how much i needed this in my life untill 5 seconds ago. Now I am unsure how I went through life without.
That's a 30 performance check, soldier
Well. here's another song going that's going to be on loop for the next few days. Thank you, Colm, beautiful song
Seeing Karlach break down in Act 3 made me weep. This song echos that painful scene. Ugh, perfection.
Karlach in my heart
Someone please take me on an adventure... We could sing all the coolest bard songs together 🍂
You created something so beautiful! Lovely melody and gorgeous instrumental music.👍
Oh my, everyone is burning up for Karlach it seems. Plenty of songs with her that have ascended recently. It's quite a devilish surprise, but a welcome one.
Pff everybody knows that my dragonborn paladin Coatl is the best character in the game.
Colm, amazing, as always! I absolutely love your voice so much...
This is absolutely beautiful, a worthy song for Karlach, keep up the amazing work!
Man, I need that sweater. Just beautiful, not saying anything of the music itself. Good to hear those passionate pipes you've got without all the tuning and all in on the passion.
For people who aren't familiar with wider DnD lore, "His War" might be confusing, since Karlach served Zariel, who is a she. However, I presume this refers to the fact that Zariel herself serves Asmodeus, and that you could say that the Blood War is "His" war, since he's one of the main interested parties. One of the theories is that Asmodeus began this war to ensure his own ascension to godhood and control over the lower planes, which he is largely successful in.
I’ve said so elsewhere, but I also want to point out that to that effect, if you just change a scant few details this song is about Zariel herself being bound to Asmodeus.
The adventure Descent Into Avernus (a direct tie in to BG3) shows that when Zariel fell from the Heavens, she did it because she’d attempted to force a peace in the Bloodwar herself. Her forces were dropping like flies, so she turned to Asmodeus in desperation.
In fact, while it is apparently not the canon ending to BG3, in that adventure if the players manage to make a sufficiently strong case, they can convince her to take up her old weapon and start walking toward redemption. (Granted, the way the adventure suggests you do it is very silly, and I don’t like it).
Anyway, the point is that Zariel and Karlach are way more alike than people realize and that’s something I desperately hope gets explored in any future BG media.
It's great to have you back! I love the candles! And I really love the captions!!
Yeeeeeesss. Same here 👏
Great to see that one of my favourite musicians also enjoyed the game! Great job, Colm! Hope that you had fun!
Coooooooolm! Amazing job! The lyrics, the mood, evrything is just perfect. Thank you, king ❤
This makes me want to upgrade my computer to the point where it can play Baldur's Gate 3.
Hopefully you'll be able to play it soon!
I would give it a shot if its not too bad of a rig. Just cap your fps to 30 or 44
and look up optimization guides for the game. Benchmarking and Zykopath have good ones.
Its a turn based game so you really dont need high fps.
And game's performance is much better now compared to when it launched.
Incredible game. Relatively suiteable for older rigs as well as long as you turn the reactive crowds setting off.
this is quickly becoming my favorite song. bless you for bringing this into being 😊
You just keep getting better and better!
I can safely say, after hearing you for years at this point, I have no doubt in my mind that you are one of the great singers of our generation, I have not been disappointed once by any of your songs, you can easily feel the passion and effort that goes into making these songs.
Excellent work!
Colm your back👑 we missed you
This is unbelievably stunning!!!!!! Will be listening on a loop! I hope you do a whole album for the Tadpole Squad ❤️
Wooo! Great work, love the lyrics so much!
Can't wait to share with my friends who actually play
Wow, lovely. I know nothing about where this song comes from, but your cover paints a beautiful, haunting picture. Loved it.
A wonderful tribute to Mama K. One to truly rage for.
The lighting and set in this is excellent!
beautiful work as always 🥰
Colm. You never disappoint. This is an amazing and epic song. Keep up the great work
This is so beautiful 🥺💕
it is so good to hear this from colm! so good!
Beautiful song!
To say it's impressive would be an understatement for how good this song is. My congratulations from Spain
"Adorned in the weight of their souls." Damn.
Such a beautiful song! I'll have to listen to it again and again. And I think I have to look into Baldurs Gate too
I keep saying that every time Colm and Jonathan Young release a new song based on the game
@@toddmaliepaard9777 I just need more time! Do you know where to buy some spare time?
Not just one of my favourite videogame song, but one of the best songs i've ever listened to. An amazing masterpiece
Great job soldier ;)
I adore this so so much! beautifully captures her regret, Incredible!
I know is a song about overcoming, but it still made me shed a tear. Colm, you're amazing!
Honestly, everything about this song is great. Had goosebumps thru it all!
what a beautiful song and delivered with such power.. i love it
Truly Beautiful Love you're Vids :)
This sounds absolutely gorgeous!
this is just too good, like wow. Hitting it out the park is an understatement!
Nice, a Karlach song!
What an absolute delight about one of the best characters. ❤️
Goddamn this song is straight fire! Hellsfire even!
Im glad best girl is getting so much attention
This is phenomenal Colm, hats off to you good sir!!!!
Came here from Karlach themselves, Samantha Béart! Hearing your song in their stream, I had to go find it properly and man, what a banger! Amazing job!
I can't stop listening to this on loop but every time I hear that first note I keep thinking you're about to play Old Time Battles from the soundtrack!
Astonishing as always, keep up the good work for as long as you can
I was in the top 13% of listeners for 2023 for Colm, Looks like I'm stuck here again for 2024...
Beautiful job Colm. 10/10
This song is soooo good! So glad YT recommended it.
Im fall in love for this song! Thats wonderfull! great work! Great Song! \o/
This song is amazing, great job, mate. 😊
this gives me goosebumps, incredible!
Kinda hits that inbetween of power and emotion. I don't honestly know how to feel about it, but I also can't stop hitting replay haha.
this is so good. omg
Hi from Johannesburg south Africa. Really well done.
Saving this. Karlach is so amazing.
Colm.
You are impeccable. Your music is top!
If you're ever thinking of doing another Irish folk cover, I think you'd do a very good version of Finnegans Wake.
I don't play this game, but now I want to! 😮
Been too busy playing baldurs gate to bring us videos lol 😂😂😂
And I love him for it. It's a fantastic game, and I would be shocked if he wasn't completely immersed.
Beautiful song for an amazing character in an incredible game❤
great 💝
in the brilliant words of Karlach: "Fuck yes!"
Absolutely stunning.
Earth has 4,6 billions of years. And I'm livin in time that Colm making music. Win as f*ck
Colm's music means it's good day. When it comes to characters, bring them all on.
More original songs please! Cannot get enough of this!
This is haunting and beautiful, and I love it. The only reason it's not hands-down my favorite Karlach song is that I've had Jonathan Young's "Devil With A Heart of Iron" stuck in my head since five minutes after it was released... but still, this is amazing. Immediately going on my playlists.
A worthy tribute. love it!
Heard this in Samantha's stream and it's great. Nice work.
Thanks fo this, soldier
Glad you're back :)
Also, in case you're still working on that Shanty Album I'd really like to suggest Ode to Falling from Peter Pan and Wendy and All For me Grog by The Longest Johns.
And my sister wanted to suggest Float from Tinkerbell. God Bless :)
That was very beautiful.
That is beautiful. Thank you Colm. Stay forever handsome 😊
No idea about the game, but the content you and JoYo put out based on it have been great
Best game i ever played, to answer that :D
The game is every bit and unique and beautiful as the content. The characters are the most immersive and human seeming characters I have EVER witnessed in any game. Beautifully complex individuals.
A worthy tribute to her.
Makes me love her even more.
AH!!! I love finding out that an artist I love made a song from another thing I love!!
Karlach #1
This song makes me cry... It's beautiful
