Composers notes from fizzd:
I found the first big idea for this song when idling after our early access release in 2021. I was looking at a rhythm trainer site where you could customise your own rhythms to practice. I made a 5 length rhythm like ‘x-x--’, thinking it’d become a simple 5/4 rhythm, but instead, the app made it a five-note-pattern in 4/4, so it was off-sync with the bar lines. That blew my mind and I knew I had to make a song with that as the basis. Now it’s 2023 and I’ve finally finished it!
Lyrics and mood: The lyrics are pretty personal, I’ve been feeling this sense of finality for the past few years, lost some things I wish i could have back again. I also tore my actual rotator cuff and couldnt rock climb for a while and went through that whole rehab process. And for me a deep nostalgia is always associated with sunset. And also the III chord, the III chord speaks to my soul.
The ‘one slip, too late..‘ was a fun cheesy line i came up with working backwards from ‘three strikes’. I didn’t think too much of it but people i showed it too were like OMG WHAT so that convinced me I should really keep it in, and even use it twice in the song. As usual Winston improved and replaced a couple of my weaker lines. My original first line lyrics were ‘won the game, lost the war, was it all worth fighting for’... he also did pretty much all of the interlude lyrics while we were on vc!
The overall sound of the piece was inspired from one day chancing across a tweet by Yeo talking about the original version of Torn • Torn . That drop halfway through is godly. There’s zero chance we could’ve pulled that type of sound off without dvdfu, they arranged and recorded all the guitars and layered them so well. celesti came up with the idea of using the baseball "charge" melody in the bg of the chorus, so good.
And for the vocals, I didn’t think we would be able to get the kind of voice at all and was ready to just settle with anything, but the rest of the team were super against using a voice that wasn't suited to Lucky, so I was like aghh fine i'll try to find someone.. my friend Hameer happened to know Brendan, and one listen to an audition of his and I knew he’d be perfect for it. Ash and Hameer both came up with a bunch of backing vocals to thicken the sound for Brendan to sing. (little snippet of recording process: / 1721608360448196757 ) And Linferno and LilyPichu were so great with the interlude! I saw Linferno do a cover of 'wish i could care less' two years ago and got in touch again due to finding a missed DM, and then realising he would be the best Logan, and I love it so much.
The final swing beat of this level is a culmination of everything I was trying to drill into the player throughout the song, so hopefully by the time it came, the player would know that rhythm well enough that it wont seem unfair if they missed it. It’s still quite tricky, and it’s been fun to see people miss that last note and laugh instead of being angry.
Thanks again to the many hands that had a part in this, I'm so happy with how it turned out. And thanks for playing!

Won the game, made my name, fifteen minutes worth of fame
then it came, all the pain. is it over? What a shame
Too tough, too rough on my rotator cuff
Low weights, rehab, I've had enough
Take me back to my dreams
before the sun set on me
When the crowd went wild
Now when they call my name
All my pride has turned to shame
They can't see me in this state
One slip, too late, three strikes, for me
I've always been the, one you could, count on, so
who will take my place, now im gone
Interlude
L: Do you know? Did you hear?
L: His play was play of the year!
H: Was that him? On the news?
L: Video had a million views
L: They call him / a show off
H: But they're not wearing his gloves
L: My hero would never
L + H: hesitate to take his shot
Close my eyes, count to ten,
Could you take me back to then...
Take me back to my dreams
before the best was in the past
When the crowd went wild
One slip, too late, three strikes, for me
I've always been the, one you could, count on, so
who will know my face, now im gone

@@_RRHH 5-2 moment:
1:06 this part in the level was genius
F r! Its my favorite part of the song. Cant get enough of it. The fact that the subdivisions line up with it.
It was also translated well into Korean. So I was surprised.
@@청정공기
1 slip, 2 late, 3 strikes, 4 me
1등, 2젠, 3진을, 부르4
I just got the “I’ve always been the one you could COUNT on” part.
7th beat has decided to up the difficulty by making it impossible to see the screen through my tears
I have to say, this and Dreams Don't Stop are two of my favorite songs in base Rhythm Doctor, for the level designs and music. Absolutely knocked it out of the park with Act 5, 7th Beat
Out of the park heh anyway I personally love helping hands and distant duet aswell
Pun
I freaking loved the story of this act
Took me a few replays to realize why the nurse's counting returned from what felt like forever at 1:40
Not only is it taking you back to the beginning of your time with Middlesea Hospital... It's struggling to count to ten because Lucky is so stressed thinking about it
RIP Jyi Sim
ONE SLIP 😭😭😭 TOO LATE 😭😭😭😭 THREE STRIKES 🗣️🗣️😭 FOR ME 😭😭😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Me rn :'3
The use of the baseball organ in this song is SO good
this is probably my favourite level from the original story HOLY CRAP!!! the part of “1 slip, 2 late, 3 strikes, 4 me” is so genius as the amount of beats increases GOD!!!! i love this level and this ost so much, my first S+ on ch5 🎉
I could've S+ it but umm I had "one slip too late" near the end so I got A+ instead😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭👍😭😭😭😭😭
@@dood2516 😭😭 felt so hard, keep trying u got this!!!
@@dood2516 Don't be disappointed, think of it as an excuse to keep playing this amazing song.
yes it is
Earlier this year, I was diagnosed with an issue that has completely affected what I’m physically able to do in life, this whole act felt so personal to me because of that, it was really meaningful seeing Lucky go through the same struggle of realising that moving on to what you actually *can* do isn’t giving up on what you wanted to do, it’s just accepting that there’s no reason to regret what you can’t control.
I like how fizzd didn’t think much of the “one slip too late” line until everyone was like “bro that’s genius.”
And here the fanbase is, continuing to say, “bro that’s genius.”
Such a perfect voice for Lucky. Like it just matches his look so well ^^
it's you again
I've been trying to S+ this level so this song and its lyrics has been stuck in my head for a while. Despite the numerous repeats while playing, this song never gets old to listen through. So great job to the peps who worked on this one.
Also shoutout to the main vocalist of this song, he killed it in this one! Really ties this already good song to be an even better one.
I enjoy the music so much that when i play it, I forget that im suppose hit and keep missing lol
this level was amazing. not only the music, but the gameplay and how it tied in with the music like in 1:05. 7th beat games really outdid themselves
THERE ARE NEW OFFICIAL LEVELS ADDED?
@@yaaa1140 yep act 5 came out
well hello there
@@thatotherandrew_ i knew we would see each other here eventually
@@yaaa1140yes there’s a new act 5
Lyrics:
Won the game, made my name
Fifteen minutes worth of fame
Then it came, all the pain, Is it over?
What a shame...
Too tough, too rough on my rotator cuff
Low weights, rehab, I've had enough
Take me back to my dreams before the sun set on me
When the crowd went WILD
GO LUCKY!
Now when they call my name
All my pride has turned to shame
(They can't see me in this state)
One slip, too late, three strikes, for me.
I've always been the one you could count on
So who will take my place now I'm gone
Do you know? Did you hear?
His play was play of the year!
Was that him? On the news?
Video had a million views!
They call him a show-off
But they're not wearing his gloves
My hero would never hesitate to take his shot!
Close my eyes, count to ten,
Could you take me back to then...
Take me back to my dreams before the best was in the past
When the crowd went WILD
One slip, too late, three strikes, for me
I've always been the one you could count on
So who will know my face
Now I'm gone.
1 Slip, 2 Late, 3 Strikes, 4 Me
0:54 GO LUCKY!
Reading the thought processes behind composing this song was really nice
Ooh where did you read the bts of composing the song? Would love to read it too!
@@Owlbear26description! It's such a good read and now I have to check each and every one of their uploads
Not only the lyrics "One slip, too late, three strikes, for late" in 1:06 is really synced well with the number of times we hit the space bar, but also the Korean translation of the lyrics also uses this pun to match the number! Genius!
This song and "Dreams Don't Stop" have rapidly become the standout tracks in this game for me. The whole game has good music, it's hard to find a stage I dislike, but these ones just knock it out of the park.
Pun intended?
@@blakecook9266 Pun not intended, actually. Not consciously. Good catch.
@@grim66"Good Catch"
..pun intended?
@@GardenVarietea Nope, not that time either. I dunno what's happening.
@@grim66 Tasks failed successfully
one of my favourite levels in the whole game!! song is amazing
This entire song is great, and i love the part where it counts tbe numbers up in time with tbe subdivided beats, its so cool
Those high pulses at the start and during the bridges give me life
🔥
The song is so nice! The dialogue part is best for someone like me who love musical!
You guys never failed to make the music in Rhythm Doctor impressed me❤
I just hope this game can be more popular
This game deserve the popularity compared to a lot of "AAA" games
I love all the act 5 songs, they all feel so unique and the art and visuals are a great match. Amazing work
Listening to this song outside of the game i just realised how GOOD the instrumentals are like WOAH especially at the end.
i honestly cannot put into words how much ya'll have cooked with act 5, everything about it is just SO good
Easily the best song in Act 5. This song blew me away when I heard it, and I still cry every time I hear it.
Puberty hit Logan like a dump truck he sounds like a Disney prince lmfao 😭
we.. never heard his voice before this, did we?
This has got to be my favorite song in the whole game!
I wish you added some new achievements for Act 5 because I loved this song so much, I S ranked it and having an achievement for it would've been a nice cherry on top of this amazing cake.
This was brilliant
One Slip
Too Late
Three Strikes
For Me
You go!!!
Love how all the hardest levels have the best songs so you don't get bored playing them over and over
Banger
The guitar solo at 2:04 is criminally underrated.
I'm so glad I held off listening to this before playing it my self. I loved the counting up parts along with the scoreboard spelling it out, so I'm glad it worked out lyric wise.
would it be possible to get an instrumental version please
the lyrics always hit so hard, i love these types of songs by fizzd so much c':
during 0:53 I wish the crowd would have cheered GO LUCKY! Cuz I do that when playing :D
Never thought I'd have trouble with swing beats
Genuinely started sobbing when I got the S+ on this. Absolute banger 💖
another absolute banger from rhythm doctor
This game is slowly turning into a musical and I'm here for it.
3rd time playing this level i had to take a 2 minute break to cry
this game is so fucking good
I love the lyrics in this
G-O L-U-C-K-Y!
i love this song Immensely. i thought it couldn't get better after wish i could care less, but here we are!
I can't wait to own the whole ost physically.
i literally love you guys oh my god
that solo around 2:05 my man
golden
*_GOLDEN_*
This song is great! While I wouldn't really say this is my type of genre, the vocals of Brendan de Cruz were such a good call, its like I can visualize that voice as a star player.
All of these are me listening to the song over and over again
I absolutely adored this entire act. The character, the story, the music. All a lot of fun. This is probably my favorite song from the entire game so far. I cannot wait for the full release!
How bout a big subdivision chunks?
Five! Tonk (x5)
Six! Tonk (x6)
And a new type of beat. Double SVT beats.
Cue: Get-Set-Go!
With X’s
Cue: Get-Set-Go! - Rattle... Rattle...
This level is so good!
I don't even know which song is my favourite, they all slap in their own way
absolute masterpiece 🎉 you guys hit it out of the park once again
I'm somewhat surprised this is a Night level. It outlines Lucky's character a lot better than the scant dialogue in the Day level.
I managed to get S+ on all the songs except Dreams Don’t Stop because the music in this act is just SO GOOD
Love this one a lot.
you also saw nicole on cole's phone wallpaper, right?
I love this song so much
1 slip,
2 late,
3 strikes,
4 me.
Pog
*tick-tick,tick-tick,tick-tick, clap* vibes
GO LUCKY!!
Amazing songs from an amazing game 👏
This act was incredible! The music was great and the new gameplay really added to it! Very excited for what else you have planned. Also I'm curious, when will achievements be added for Act 5?
so good

best song in act 5(at least tied with 5-X).
change my mind
this give me 2000s/2010s vibes
or maybe is it just me idk
Welp, now I gotta go back and play the level again.
i wonder if the multiple hits could be offset from each other instead of being an equal distance in the beat
example: |=hit _=none {[stuff]}= a beat
original:
{tonk _ tonk _ } {| _ | _}
{tonk _ tonk _ tonk _} {| _ | _ | _}
idea:
{tonk tonk _ _} {| | _ _ }
{tonk _ _ tonk tonk _} {| _ _ | | _}
i probably didn't have to add the extra bit
if i can learn how to use the level editor i might try this
ian: WHY IS THERE MORE
paige: great, more to add on to the infinite list of problems
edgar: hey ian, im making you work on more treatments
ian: I NEED SLEEP AT LEAST
edgar: not my problem
ian: 💀
edgar: oh no ian's dead, intern fix him, im not paying you nothing for you to do nothing
me: (starts scrolling infinitly)
edgar: MY EYES 💀
paige: ... im sorry but what the f-

This is Lucky's Wish I Could Care Less.
just wondering, will there be extended version for this amazing song?
Hey 7th. Helping hands is outdated… Add lucky in and extend the song pls!
1:42 havent saw act 5 yet but count to 10!?
what happened to seven 😡😤😤😤
0/7, no e are san su ooh lyo chi
1:38 I have to ask, is this a Hamilton nod? I can't think of another good excuse to end on "shot" that way.
Play ball

did anyone else notice the chinese characters on the left of the screen.
yeah, it's a reference to the chinese nurse in the game. those are just the numbers from 1 to 7.
I am waiting for new ADOFAI levels 😉
