I couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole video because I kept imagining Astarion dancing around in a mine while singing this These high notes are absolutely killing me 😭
When people said "why do you find Astarion attractive he looks like Preminger" I always responded "Because I'm attracted to both" This is not helping LMAO
I haven’t listened to the original in a while, so I can’t even tell the difference It’s uncanny how similar they are, bg3 somehow yassified one of the few characters I thought couldn’t have any more yass applied without even trying to
when i searched for "baldur's gate 3 astarion preminger" i was expecting nothing because it's so niche. But THIS?! THIS blew my mind! THIS is a masterpiece!
I swear his voice is so similar to Neil's, I can just close my eyes and see Astarion singing this at the camp. It's too hilarious. My Tav would die of laughing.
All the while, I'm imagining Tav scaling the castle rooftop in the rain, presumably coughing in between bouts of movement. Eventually, Astarion finds them on the roof - and the final "How can I refuse?" is them exchanging looks as Tav crosses their arms in the coffin position and leaps from the roof, landing in the Yamcha death pose.
My feed lately has inexplicably been mostly Astarion content and Preminger content (neither of which I initiated). This beautiful marriage between the two is a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
How is it that i can remember every single word to this song despite not having heard it in over a decade and yet i cant remember what i had for breakfast yesterday?!? This is perfect! Now i just need a version where someone changes the lyrics to actually match Astarion's story specifically!
Thank you for doing the lord's work. I'm so glad I'm not the only person that 100% immediately thought of Preminger when I heard Astarion for the first time
When I first played BG3 and met Astarion I had a fleeting thought of Preminger which I all too quickly pushed from my mind. Good Lord what have you done!? Now I'll never be able to stop thinking about it! XDD
I LEGIT MADE THE CONNECTION THE SECOND I SAW AND HESRD HIM IN-GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME. dude AND this is ai to make it sound like astarion. but the fact that it’s hard to tell just proves even more that the comparison is SO ON THE NOSE
To be honest, when I saw and heard Astarion. It was a flash of a thought but I thought of him. That wonderful, dramatic, absolute perfection of a character, Preminger ✨
Oh no, you are so forgiven. I found my new ringtone. My fiance hates Astarion, and knows NOTHING about Barbie.. So this is perfect to match his 'Elliot Goes To School' ringtone he has that I dislike. Perfectly balanced as all things should be.
The voice is everything, I’m glad that I’m not the only one who noticed they are the same person. 😂 Also this is what the relationship between Tav and ascended Astarion feels like … even how his goals change, the reference of being “ a master of all that I see” speaks to his ego so well.

We need Neil to do a cover of this
GOD PLEASE NO, it would be the day we all die from laughing uncontrollably
Please we’re waiting 😂😂😂 and Gale doing the other voice, PLEASE
PLEASE YES
Oh god PLEASE- 😭🙏🙏🙏
YEESSS!!!!
This is absolutely so niche I have no one I can show it to😭😂
ikr
I was just thinking this ❤️❤️
I feel you
The intersection between the BG3 fandom and the Barbie fandom
You can show me, I'll pretend I haven't seen it
I couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole video because I kept imagining Astarion dancing around in a mine while singing this
These high notes are absolutely killing me 😭
PLEASE
He can’t hit them right so he has to jump to falsetto haha
‘HoW cAn I rEfUsE??” - Astarion
Then you have Tav and Gale dancing with him
He totally would tho.
When people said "why do you find Astarion attractive he looks like Preminger" I always responded "Because I'm attracted to both"
This is not helping LMAO
AAAAHHAHAHHHHHHHHHHH
@@judeperks6612 PLEASE this is the funniest fucking response 😭😂😂
@@minniem-ms I am in PAIN LMAO
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH
Same bestie
Honestly if Neil made a fundraiser to pay him to cover the song I would absolutely contribute to the cause
i hope he doesn't bc fans keep using AI against his wishes so none of us deserve anything imo
@@DragonGirl48against his wishes? I just goggled it, I can't find anything
@@DragonGirl48 Yeah I know, that's why I suggested paying him. Imo that'd make it less bad? And it'd be all in good fun anyway
YES! AND REWORD IT TO FIT THE GAME!
Same honestly
Temporary setback, a momentary loss is the most Astarion line ever.
It was made for Astarion
and conveniently his ego didn't bruise
God, they really do have the same cadence, don't they? I'll never view them the same again💀
LMAO
I can’t tell where Preminger ends and Astarion begins. They really are just the same. Preminger walked so Astarion could prance.
True 😔💟🛐
as a barbie die hard and a bg3 enthusiast i literally cannot express in words how much i love you for making this, godbless you
exactly!!
It's such a perfect voice too omggggg
It's something I didn't know would cure a part of me.
SAMEEE
I love how popular Astarion as Preminger is. It's so niche but everyone is in agreement that these characters are cut from the same cloth.
THIS IS WAY TOO PERFECT UGHHHH PREMINGER VOICE IS JUST SO ASTARION CODED
AGREE
You are forgiven. You are soooo forgiven, I can't believe anyone even remembers this track. It's hilarious xdd
imagine if we ever got a real cover of this from Neil… i would DIE
I need this in my life
This is the new hub for old barbie movie fans and Bg3/Astarion fans
I also just wanted to say. Prince Albecht and Hilarion are the best (Barbie and the pink shoes)
The moment I heard Astarion's voice I thought "wow he sounds like Preminger"
"Prince boss to you!" Is so Astarion coded.
Astarion, babe, it’s time to stop evil serenading and get back to the camp.
- Tav, probably
Your comment made me choke. Thank you lol
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE PREMINGER RENAISSANCE AND HOW DID ASTARION GET INVOLVED 😭😭
I think astarion is one of the catalysts for this
The prenaissance welcomes you
@@thesandwich5321
That made me laugh harder than it should XD
theyre the SAME DUDE
I haven’t listened to the original in a while, so I can’t even tell the difference
It’s uncanny how similar they are, bg3 somehow yassified one of the few characters I thought couldn’t have any more yass applied without even trying to
Exactly what I was thinking
Don't mind me
Just imagining Astarion dancing in a mine telling Gale and Wyll he's gonna kidnap a princess lol
WAIT I THOUGHT THE SAME EXACT THING EXCEPT THE PRINCESS WAS TAV LMAOOO
@@Doryzitter omg that's amazing!! LMAO
@@Doryzitter Wouldn't Durge be closer to princesshood since they're the child of a god and all?
@@Amy_the_Lizard True. It just depends on what you headcanon for your Tav tho
the fact that us 90s girlies have to accept the fact that we’re thirsting after elf preminger 💀
Astarion out in the woods at 3 AM:
I have been making this joke for months but nobody I know knows both of these... This is beautiful, thank you
same 😭😭😭
1:50 HIS VOICE SHMSFDJ 😂😂
its giving bibble 😭😭
@@salmasabhiraNOT BIBBLE THIS COMMENT HAS ME ROLLING
All I could think about was Golem
@@sophibubbles3329Gollum?
the astarion + preminger crossover content is exactly what I needed... thank you for your service
HE IS HIM IN OTHER UNIVERSE
Astarion's brain cells and hormonal cells working together to manipulate Tav into protecting him:
LMAOO STOPPPP
Fun fact: Astarion and Preminger have the same amount of syllables, so you could easily swap out Preminger's name with Astarion's in this song.
If you read -ion as "yon", absolutely.
But they don't 😂
when i searched for "baldur's gate 3 astarion preminger" i was expecting nothing because it's so niche. But THIS?! THIS blew my mind! THIS is a masterpiece!
I swear his voice is so similar to Neil's, I can just close my eyes and see Astarion singing this at the camp. It's too hilarious. My Tav would die of laughing.
The high notes are killin me 😭
I WAS LITERALLY THINKING OF ASTARION WHEN I SAW A CLIP OF THIS DUDE
HOLYFCK FINNALY SOMEONE SAID THAT,,,, I WAS THINKING THAT ASTARION AND PREMINGER ALIKE FROM CHARACTER TO HAIR OMFFFFGGGGGGGGGG
I want nothing more than for Neil Newbon to react to this.
You guys are very silly for thinking he or any other VA is reacting positively to their voices being trained on and used without consent.
absolutely!!! it's awful@@GiselleDoodles
@@GiselleDoodlesthis. This is horrifying
i can assure you his reaction wouldn't be positive lmao
@@DJNightshiftMoondaiit’s not that deep lol
Spoiler
Ascended Astarion in a nutshell?
literally! saved to my Astarion/Durge playlist
Yes HAHAHAH
I hate how accurate this is 😂
All the while, I'm imagining Tav scaling the castle rooftop in the rain, presumably coughing in between bouts of movement. Eventually, Astarion finds them on the roof - and the final "How can I refuse?" is them exchanging looks as Tav crosses their arms in the coffin position and leaps from the roof, landing in the Yamcha death pose.
MY JAW IS DROPPED AND I COULDN'T CLOSE MY MOUTH UNTIL THE END
(Spits out her coffee) WHAT?? This is perfect! You are forgiven AND redeemed, Darling!!
the high pitch parts sounds like he's sick
The moment I saw Astarion as just thought PREMINGER. Im so happy I wasnt the only one XXDD
Ascended Astarion on his way to conquer Baldur’s Gate.
I must say if I was a princess and Astarion tried to steal me as his bride- i'd let him shiiit
If Neil would actually sing this as Astarion, my heart would be full
Astarion is basically a yassified Preminger so this works 😂
i didn’t know i needed this. thank you for this amazing creations
Finally, my months of sending my friend niché memes will pay off >:)
FINALLY IM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HEARS /SEES IT
this is what we’ve all been waiting for, beautiful
I am crying. This is pure perfection
god when he said SIMPERING SIMPLETON i ascended.
for me it's "Prince Boss, to you"
My feed lately has inexplicably been mostly Astarion content and Preminger content (neither of which I initiated). This beautiful marriage between the two is a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
How is it that i can remember every single word to this song despite not having heard it in over a decade and yet i cant remember what i had for breakfast yesterday?!? This is perfect! Now i just need a version where someone changes the lyrics to actually match Astarion's story specifically!
I’m crying, I desperately needed this, I’m so glad you’ve done this, thank you so much ❤❤❤
You are a genius, you are great, you are amazing, you are working on a different wavelength and it brought us this wonderful treasure THANK YOU
we all desperately needed this
I can not unhear the Bibble at 1:50 💀
Thank you for doing the lord's work. I'm so glad I'm not the only person that 100% immediately thought of Preminger when I heard Astarion for the first time
This is my new favourite song rn
Thank you so much
And that is definitely going into my playlist
NEIL PLEASE NEIL PLEASE NEIL COVER IT 😩😩😩
i love this more than oxygen and i have no idea how a better idea could've been thunked ;w;
omg the pitch of his voice is so on point, thank you sooooooooooooo muchTT
When I first played BG3 and met Astarion I had a fleeting thought of Preminger which I all too quickly pushed from my mind.
Good Lord what have you done!? Now I'll never be able to stop thinking about it! XDD
oh my god they sound the exact same
What a time to be alive.
I don’t know how to cope with the fact this exists.
I LEGIT MADE THE CONNECTION THE SECOND I SAW AND HESRD HIM IN-GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME. dude AND this is ai to make it sound like astarion. but the fact that it’s hard to tell just proves even more that the comparison is SO ON THE NOSE
This is everything I’ve ever needed, my crops are watered, watered with my tears of joy.
Good to see you back. Hoping to see more playthroughs.
I literally thought Astarion was just sexy Preminger when they game came out
Premiger - astarion pipeline is real
To be honest, when I saw and heard Astarion. It was a flash of a thought but I thought of him. That wonderful, dramatic, absolute perfection of a character, Preminger ✨
Is this bad that I thought about this the moment Astarion first spoke? 😅 thank you for putting this in existence
how did i find my way here? it is like heaven. i found my people
Thats what Astarion is doing after he ascend
Damn ai is really good at this, sounds soo real 👏
This is so good omg i cannot wsit to share it
I want to watch it everyday, because, how can I refuse? 🌝
Astarion: Who does he think he is!?
Tav: uh…the arch duke?
absolutely ectatic I'm not the only one who instantly thought of preminger when i heard astarion's voice
Oh no, you are so forgiven. I found my new ringtone. My fiance hates Astarion, and knows NOTHING about Barbie.. So this is perfect to match his 'Elliot Goes To School' ringtone he has that I dislike. Perfectly balanced as all things should be.
I'm literally screaming- this is AMAZINGGGGG
this is absolutely perfect
NO WONDER WHY I KEPT GETTING DEJA VU VIBES FROM HIM AAAAHHHHHHHHHH, TWO WORLDS COLLIDING
like this has changed the entire course of my life I don't know what else to say
i am going to start screaming, hope y'all don't mind
It’s beautiful 😭😭😭
I hate that I am the target audience for this
The voice is everything, I’m glad that I’m not the only one who noticed they are the same person. 😂
Also this is what the relationship between Tav and ascended Astarion feels like … even how his goals change, the reference of being “ a master of all that I see” speaks to his ego so well.
Oh my god lmao I needed this. It's 4 AM and I'm losing my shit.
THIS IS AMAZING, I WAS LITERALLY BULLYING MY FRIEND FOR LIKING ASTARION BECAUSE HE IS LEGIT JUST PREMINGER, I AM LAUGHING SO HARD, I LOVE THIS.
OMG WHY IS THIS SO GOOD
the actor explicitly did not want people to use ai on his voice, shame on you.
Oh my godddd I couldnt tell the difference at first with the high pitch but NOOOOO someone outdid themselves and now we need fanart.
Why…does it work SO WELL
I don't think anyone understands how happy this crossover makes me😂 I love this
I LOVE THIS!?!??!?!
This is a piece of art
Yo OP, did u see RUclips's new guideline about undisclosed use of AI
Oh god, something in the back of my mind knew that Astarion reminded me of someone. I wish you weren't right about this one.
I bet if we asked Neil would do this
